• Fixed an issue where the secret switch could be placed inside the architecture in cellar type rooms and thus rendered virtually unusable.
  
  
• Fixed a bug that caused Altars in dungeon type 2 to not be placed correctly.
  
  
• Fixed an issue where a shop could have no potions if it had a lot of large items.
  
  
• Secret switches should no longer get placed on top of turret fuse boxes.
  
  
• Fixed an issue that could cause the player to be locked in by a secret entrance without a brazier to light that would open it.
  
  
• Skull reload stations should no longer get placed inside of turrets in chasms type rooms.
  
  
• Changed the way the Improved Sack Smack skill scales. (it's now less powerful in general and higher skill levels have diminishing returns)
  
  
• Also, it now shows the correct value for sack smack base knockback.
  
  
• Halved the damage bonus of the Mastersmith skill.
  
  
• Reduced proc chance of the Spectral Blades skill by 40%;
  
  
• Decreased chance to get high quality items from the Scrap Collector skill.
  
  
• Added sound effect for disassembling weapons.
  
  
• Added Skill: Master Disassembler. This allows you to turn non-crafted melee weapons into random components at the smithy. (right-click on the item with the crafting interface open)
  
  
• Added permanent item enchantments:
  
  The Preacher's Proclamation
  
  The Deacon's Decree
  
  The Emperor's Edict
  
  
• Added enchantment which turns an item into money:
  
  The Trader's Tractate

I'll add more enchantments as soon as I can come up with more alliterations.

This patch will once again upgrade your savegames. You'll get a new dungeon floor of the number you were on, but you'll get to keep your character and items, although they might be overpowered.

To opt into the beta branch right-click on Slasher's Keep in your Steam library, select properties, then the Betas tab and then select the beta branch from the drop-down menu.

Edit:

• Made achievements work:
  
  "Life sentence" which you unlock by entering an infinite type dungeon
  
  "It's like a real RPG!" which you unlock by completing any quest
