The Blood Knight arrives.
11 new items, a set, a cosmetic set, a legendary gem and of course, a new mastery. Bug fixes as always and a few balance changes as well.
Important: Make a backup of any Demon Hunter character you have before playing this new version. Some changes were made to DH files in preparation for the GD Berserker mastery, probably breaking all existing characters (DoM and Grimarillion included).
Patch 4.9 is available now. Click on the image to download it:
Note: The mod now uses a custom file for animations. If you notice any missing animation/character freezing, please report on this thread.
Patch Notes 4.9
BUG FIXES
- Fixed an issue where the low level versions of Basilisk Mark granted skillpoints to Frenzy instead of giving it to Fan of Knives.
- Removed pet bonuses from Visage of Giyua, it was not intended.
- Fixed an issue where the values for target’s defensive ability reduction from Kanai’s Cube: Tiklandian were the double of Tiklandian Spellblade values. Now it’s properly reduced by half.
- Fixed an issue where Kanai’s Cube: Stormshield granted skill modifier for Condemn rather than Shield Bash as the Stormshield original item.
- Removed some unnecessary text about Kanai’s Cube on the Pauldrons of the Skeleton King item description.
- Fixed an issue where The Grandfather 2h sword had the Blade of the Warlord’s name and description.
- Fixed an issue where the level 94 of the Scorpius Pummeler didn’t grant bonuses for Summon Gargantuan as its lower versions.
- Fixed an issue where the Mythical Krysbin’s Sentence granted skill didn’t have higher stats for damage and slow.
- Animation speed of some vanilla skills while dual wielding or using two-handed melee weapons updated following the latest patches standards.
- Fixed an issue where you couldn’t summon Sacred Crate as a cosmetic pet.
GENERAL
