    Monster Changes:


    • Resistances lowered for all non-boss monsters in all difficulties.

    • All Pets now gain 1% Additional Elemental / Physical Resistance per Base Point.


    • All Pets have had their Damage per Level increased at higher levels, especially Level 20+.


    • Several Skill Effects have been added to the Gold Vendor. These are "charms" similar to the existing Effect Stones that you can keep in your inventory to apply graphical changes to certain skills. The following Skills Effects are currently available: Warped Arrow (Barrage Arrow), Spike Blast (Mind Blast), Guts Throw (Shield Throw), Heaven's Storm (Tornado), Fae Hunt (Blood Hunt), Warped Spear (Bone Spear), Elemental Storm (Divine Storm), Soul Rip (Fist of the Heavens), and Disco Orb (Frozen Orb).
