Replaced the maps for all 4 Eras with brand new, incredibly detailed versions. The map also fills the entire screen.
The functionality of the Quest Journal has been incorporated into the World Map. You can now view the details of all current and past quests without leaving the map.
Loot Filter
Affix conditions which specify multiple affixes can now be configured to only apply to items which have multiple of the specified affixes.
For example, you can now highlight items which have both + Melee Physical Damage and Increased Physical Damage
Added an Advanced section for affix conditions, which allows you to specify what tier an individual affix must be, or the total number of affix tiers on an item.
Inventory
Added a Blessings tab, used for viewing all of your active blessings and tracking what blessings are available from each timeline. It also shows you how powerful your Blessings are in comparison to the maximum roll.
The Cosmetics window has been integrated into the Inventory as a separate Appearance tab. The cosmetic store is still unavailable and no additional cosmetics have been added. More of this system will be made available in the upcoming patches.
The backgrounds for equipment slots now vary based on what class you’re playing.
Added a display for how much gold, affix shards, runes and glyphs you have.
The Idol Inventory has been reshaped. See Items > Idols for more info.
Stash
Stash tabs can now be re-ordered within their category by clicking and dragging.
Categories can now be re-ordered by clicking and dragging.
Passives now progress from left to right and are in a horizontal window. This provides more real-estate for showing additional information and further expansion of the passive system in the future.
Mastery bonuses and skills are now always shown when viewing a mastery, rather than being a tooltip.
Each node has been increased in size to better recognize each passive.
It is now easier to tell what passive are available before and after choosing a Mastery.
Totally redesigned the panel, making it more streamlined.
You can now upgrade affixes that are already on an item without having to manually select that type of affix shard.
The affix list in the crafting window has been brought into its own separate sub-window, along with runes and glyphs.
Ward
Ward is now additionally displayed as a meter above the health bar.
The ward bar now more intuitively reflects changes in ward.
If you gain ward the fill now always goes up (or stays the same if it was already full).
If you lose ward the fill now always goes down.
The separator ticks are now dynamic (e.g. allowing for 250% of max health to be shown with a full bar using by ticks at 40% and 80%).
The “max ward” shown on the bar resets back towards 100% of max health over time if the bar is not full. It resets faster when the current fill is low and is specifically setup to have minimal impact when you’re at high fill and take a large hit, allowing the hit to have a big visual impact on the fill.
God Hunter Argentus deals 14% more damage and has 8% more health.
The Ballistae in the Argentum Spire deal 15% more damage.
Void Shade of Rahyeh deals 3% more damage and has 3% more health.
Frost Lich Formosus has 13% more health and his Spirit Beam deals 25% more damage.
Undead Wengari Matriarch deals 22% more damage and has 24% more health.
Lagon deals 15% more damage and has 11% more health (in the Monolith only).
Harton’s Husk deals 15% more damage and has 15% more health.
Idols of Ruin deal 15% more damage and have 15% more health
Emperor of Corpses deals 18% more damage and has 16% more health.
The blood hearts around the edge of the Emperor’s Corpses arena explode up to 30% sooner (the exact timing depends on the dragon’s health).
Husk of Elder Gaspar deals 5% more damage and has 10% more health.
Totemic Flame Burst deals 14% more damage (multiplicative with the generic damage increase).
Heorot deals 8% more damage and has 11% more health.
Volcanic Shamans deal 13% more damage and have 9% more health.
Other Changes
Fixed a bug where monster mods that were supposed to have higher values for rare enemies had this higher value applied to all enemies. The base value of the following mods have been adjusted to compensate:
Increased Damage (non-rare enemies now deal 2% to 3% less damage).
Regenerates Health (non-rare enemies now regen 5% less, rare enemies now regen 14% more).
Physical/Fire/etc. Resistance Shred (non-rare enemies now only apply 1 stack on hit, from 3).
The Haruspex Orian that you can find in the Arena and Monolith has been updated to use the same abilities that he uses in the Ulatri Cliffs.
This patch does a lot to make moment to moment gameplay feel better on gamepad. We plan to continue making improvements, including gamepad-specific UI controls.
The tooltip for the nearest item on the ground is now shown automatically while you are stationary.
Pressing up and down on the D-pad while stationary will change which item on the ground you have selected.
Pressing the A button (Xbox layout) will now pick up the nearest item that is in range of the player.
Chests and NPCs can also be selected without moving the cursor, and have priority over items on the ground.

The Menu button (Start on Xbox layout) now closes dialog windows.
Fixed a bug where the size of the cursor while using a controller varied with display resolution, becoming hard to see at resolutions above 1080p.
Greatly improved the performance of organizing item labels on the ground, particularly with high numbers of items. The process takes 85% less time when there are around 140 items close together.
Improved shadow performance for zones throughout the game.
Refactored how data for enemies, minions and the player are stored. This doesn’t have a direct performance benefit but will help us moving forward.
