- A general weakening of creature difficulty.
- Slowing down of creature movement.
- Fixes to animations when riding horses.

- A fix to reagent taking in spells, so that they take the right amount of reagents for a spell. There is still some randomness involved.
- Failure to smelt consumes some of the ore.
- Smelting a useless piece of ore will no longer check your skill.
- You won't be able to repair items already in perfect condition.
- The amount of raw materials required for making items has been put on a curve, so that the nicer items require substantially more raw materials than before.
- Reagents will be lighter.
- Magic item variety should be greatly increased.
- Fixed some clicking problems where double-clicks registered as only single-clicks.

- You can no longer use items that belong to other people.
- Alchemy should be working again.
- The protection spell should work again.
- The Armor Rating statistic shown in your status window now displays the AR weighted by equipment slots. This is purely a change in display, not in the internal mechanics of the way armor works.
- The interface to blacksmithing changed slightly. Using a blacksmithing tool now brings up a selection window. The anvil in the selection window represents repairing an item rather than making one.
