        • Zombie Bears should no longer become stuck on objects with which they shouldn't have collision

Items

• General
  • Equipped items will now take "wear-and-tear" durability damage at half the previous rate
    • Please note that durability loss as the result of normal combat is different from the 10% durability loss characters will incur when they die. Equipped items have always suffered durability loss while fighting, and we are simply slowing the rate at which the loss occurs.

  • Fixed a bug that was causing Unique monsters to not drop the appropriate amount of loot when slain
  • Fixed a bug with linking items with 3 gem sockets
  • It is no longer possible to create fake achievement links

  • Fixed several game and service crashes (for Mac and PC)
