Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where all loot picked up manually was going into the Scavenger even when bags were not full. We knew he liked loot, but he can't have all of it. Manually collected loot now goes to your inventory, when there's space, as intended.

Features

• Added the ability to change regions. At the Options menu, you can change your region so you and your international friends can play together again!
  
• Added Nightmare IV difficulty to the Spooky Event (“2spookyNM4me”)
  
• Later this afternoon, our plan is to reward players who had the Monthly Mission available before October 27th with a free Bearkira pet! If something changes or goes wrong, we'll update these notes.
  
• Added a new premium pet: Autumeow (Gato)
  
• Changed the description on the “I ain’t afraid of no ghost” Challenge to state that completing the event on 2spookyNM4me is not necessary to completing the challenge.

Balance

• Moved Trikk to Wave 2 on the Spooky Events.
  
• Rebalanced Treet to have the stats of a mighty Special Enemy.
  
• Updated Griblok’s minion stats to more closely mirror their older stats.
  
• Decreased Campaign Kobold Flier HP and Damage.
  
• Decreased Campaign Lady Orc HP.
  
• Increased Campaign Lightning Bug Damage.
  
• Decreased Campaign Witherbug Burrowed Health Regeneration.

Bug Fixes

• Added in a potential fix for the issue where Daily and Monthly Missions would get wiped/reset. This may also fix some instances where Daily Missions aren’t showing up, but we believe there is still one more bug there that we’ll squash in our next patch. We’ve also added in a specific tracker on our backend so we can pinpoint the issue. This is a tricky bug to squash, but we’ll get it!
  
• Fixed an issue where Treet wasn’t dropping loot.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Hearty Blockade Max HP bonus was not appearing on the Spike Blockade tooltip. This fix should also improve clarity of all tooltips with Skill Spheres and Passives that relate to the categories listed on the Inspect Defense stats.
  
• Fixed an issue where under certain circumstances players would get pulled out of their party.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Possessed Sword was appearing solid white.
  
• Fixed an issue where Flamethrower Towers couldn’t properly hit enemies above or below them. (Note: Flamethrowers aren’t supposed to target flying enemies.)
  
• Fixed an issue where flying enemies would get stuck in the air lanes on the second Spooky map.
  
• Fixed an issue on the first Spooky map where the green goo was causing damage outside of the green goo pool.
  
• Enemies can no longer snipe the subobjective from the curvy lane in the first Spooky map.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Weakening Curse on the Betsy Apprentice weapon did not apply on all projectiles.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Greatest Finds on the Summary Screen showed items that were already in your Inventory.
  
• Fixed some uneven terrain that was causing towers to look like they’re floating on the first Spooky map.
  
• Fixed an issue where the top part of the Barrow Cart near the player spawn point has no collision on the first Spooky map.
  
• Fixed a weird texture on the second Spooky map.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Skill Sphere text would overlap with other text.
  
• Fixed an issue where players using Low graphics settings had green icons in the Costume Shop.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Spectral Raven projectile would instantly disappear.
  
• “Cemetery” is now spelled correctly.

Known Issues

• Removing Skill Spheres will cause text to get lost in the UI. Clicking the scroll bar will fix this issue.
  
• The Haunted Huntress enemy doesn't do damage to players.

Dear Defenders,

We wanted to take a moment to thank each and every one of you. Your support for Dungeon Defenders II has helped it become the success it is today:

• 1,000,000 Installs (!)
  
• 11,000,000 Hours Played (!!)
  
• 0 Old Ones Released (Priceless)

Give yourselves a round of applause! You’ve earned it.

Thank you for playing, and thank you for supporting our F2P model. Every dollar you spend and have spent helps us create new gameplay content for everyone, like the two Spooky maps and the Spooky Event we released yesterday. Thank you for cheering when Steam promotes our game (which we’re hoping they do with the Grave Danger Pack in the Steam Halloween Sale). Thank you for cheering when friends and strangers spend money on badass costumes. Together, we get to make the best Action Tower Defense game ever.

And we get to feed our families, which we’re sure they appreciate.

With Love,
The Trendy Team

Two New Maps!

• The Deadly Road: Enshrouded in tales of ghost sightings and vanishing caravans, the Dead Road has been actively avoided by travelers since its discovery. Many brave souls have tried exploring the ruined catacombs in search of treasure, but none have emerged alive.
  
• Temple of the Necrotic: Deep in the woods of Etheria, there exists a temple built in the space between life and death. A powerful artifact has appeared inside of the structure, throwing the forces governing the living and the dead into total chaos.

New Event: Spooky 2015

• Cut a hole in your chair and grab a bucket because you’re gonna s*** yourself with our first Holiday event. Maldonis the Dark has invaded Etheria, and he brought some ghoulish new friends with him. Be on the lookout for some seriously spooky secrets in each of the new maps!

Steam Trading Cards

• Tell your bags to filter in certain types of loot automatically during Auto Collect. For example, tell a bag to filter in all Legendary loot. All Legendary loot that is Auto-Collected from the ground will automatically go into that bag. That’s right, Champ. You’re the boss. The Bag Boss. That’s higher than Bag Master. You were promoted just by reading the patch notes.
  
• Added 13 Auto-Collect filters to bags. The sky's the limit within these 13 specific filters.

New Tavern Decorations

• The tavern has been spookified. The Grumpy old man isn’t too pleased, but what do you expect.

Dark Arts Apprentice Costume

• 4 Mythical Accessories
