Have not seen tqFan. I will try to do this, but due to lack of experience, there may be some minor issues.
Initial Changelog - Sept 19th
The following represents the initial changelog for v1.3.1. More changes and fixed are still being worked on before the update goes live for everyone.
Note: full localization is available with this build, so please let us know if there are any issues in non-English.
Note: Loyalist Pack 4 is currently in internal testing only and not available for purchase until the update goes live for everyone.
Known issue: the final boss of the Obsidian Swordsman quest line currently has work-in-progress sound effects which do not perfectly line up with the casting animations. This will be addressed in a future build.

[Major New Features]
Loyalist Pack 4 is now available! Conquer your foes with four grim new cosmetic sets!
An ancient burial site has been uncovered within the Frostveil Highlands, honoring a brutal, but mighty warrior. Can you recover their lost legacy and bring new glory to the armor of a fallen Kurn champion?
A new Legendary armor set can now drop exclusively from Resplendent Treasure Troves, on any difficulty.
New points of interest have been added to the Frostveil Highlands, featuring additional rewards.
29 additional Epics have been Awakened, including two Sets (Bloodreaper’s Butcher and Desecrator Covenant).
[Crucible]
Reduced monster Damage and Offensive Ability scaling in waves 171-200.
Item Alteration is now unlocked at the Crucible inventor by default.
[Tech]
An optimization pass has been performed on shadows, particularly in high elevation areas.
Note: the issue on GOG with achievements popping at the start of each session is a GOG bug, and not an issue with the game. Their team has been notified and a fix will hopefully roll out in a future GOG Galaxy update.
Fixed an issue where an Ascended Epic would be invalid for awakening it. Note: awakening an Ascended Epic does wipe its Ascended affix.
[Modding]
Additional animation slots have been added for modding purposes.
[Game]
Items of all qualities now have a small chance to drop with a randomized Ascension modifier when playing in Ascendant mode. This chance is increased by offering Soul Fragments at the altar, and enables random Ascended drops on lower difficulties. Soul Fragments no longer increase monster equipment drop rates.
Reduced base monster Damage and Offensive Ability in Ascendant mode.
Increased monster density in Bloodbound areas, ice caves, and in the Aurora Peaks.
Noktukari has become less shy and now marks the location of Elderveil on the minimap. Herb-Tender Nadala now offers a follow-up breadcrumb to guide you towards his lair if you have not met him yet.
Noktukari’s Roguelike Dungeon quests now progress when finishing the respective challenge room, rather than when opening the chest. You should still grab your loot though.
Onslaught stacks are now wiped when using weapon swap or transitioning between areas.
Fixed an issue where the Ascension Altar’s loot bias modifiers were sometimes not correctly applying to unique drops.
Fixed an issue where the Forgotten Gods breadcrumb quest would not begin in some circumstances. This was not a blocking issue as the Emissary quest could still be started, but the quest guiding characters to it would not always start.
Fixed an issue where some Reflect monsters were missing the reflect overhead icon, and removed it from monsters that unintentionally displayed it (ex. Ancient Shambler).
[Itemization]

This offers tremendous flexibility in customizing your character’s weapon builds, however, these modifiers unfortunately have outpaced other build archetypes and need to be more restricted.

A new build is coming posthaste to address a couple critical bugs:
duration refresh modifiers added in the last build for Blood of Dreeg etc. now work as intended
Weapon Pool wave skills (Avalanche and Shattering Smash), were dealing 2x as much damage as intended. This issue is now fixed and the abilities and their modifiers were rebalanced to compensate
In addition, further tuning to the Obsidian Swordsman has been made. The pet granted by his set should also be much quieter now.
Ascendant Mode and Crucible 171-200 tuning now emphasizes a reduction to Physical damage over other damage types.
Changelog updated to latest.

I found it weird that this one being put here. Revenant pets stat was removed several patch ago (vitality resist & adcth for pet bonus). Better give the extra health to Wolverine since it was previously the pet bonus stacked in there.
