RELICS

Added a failsafe to 'draining' relic powers, so they will deactivate if for some reason the proc that should decativate them fails. It appears to fail if the player is stunned in that exact moment.
The 'Drain the Bar' series of Relic skills now show their Buff indicator on the Buffs UI.
Elemental damage provided by Relic passives have been standardized to 25%, the intended value (some were still at 50%).
Fixed several relic skill animations that did not play properly.
Fixed an issue where creatures summoned via Relics Skills (e.g. Ice Golem) do not follow player inside or outside side dungeons or to the boss areas.
Relic 'Weapon Mastery' skills no longer give bonuses to all relic damage while that weapon is equipped. Each of those passives now has a new unique proc effect on basic hit:
Flaming Destroyer's Giant Swings - Now grants a chance on basic hit to trigger a powerful flame shockwave
Electrode's Shocking Force - Now grants a chance on basic hit to quickly call down three lightning strikes
Blood Drinker's Blades for Cutting - Now grants a chance on basic hit to create a Death Blade, a smaller version of Dance of Death, for 6 seconds
Bane's Staffing Up - Now grants a chance on basic hit to summon an Enchanted Staff for 20 seconds
Coldheart's Large Bores - Now grants a chance on basic hit to fire a trio of icicles in a tight cluster.
Updated Blood Drinker relic skill descriptions for clarity.
Blood Drinker Bloodseekers buff now fires double missiles at tier 3.
Fixed inconsistency between the title and its tier bonuses in Living Barrier.
Changed Spinning Blade relic energy cost back to 25 instead of 20, to put it in line with all other relic 25 skill cost skills.
Made the proc Spinning Blades from the tier 1 bonus actually appear on the client.
Updated Coldheart relic skill descriptions for clarity.
Fixed a case where blob shadow meshes were picking up a Status Effect from Cold Heart relic skills.
Fixed a case where using Coldheart with Shadow Quality set to Off the player would look like a big grey box.
Frost Nova passive now functions, the trigger on removing Frost Skin was not hooked up.
Frost Skin (passive) now triggers Frost Nova. Previously it only triggered from the Barrier skill.
Fixed an issue where Snowstorm does minimal damage.
Updated Electrode relic skill descriptions for clarity.
Localized Storm's hit skill shape now replicates which should help fix missing VFX.
Fixed an issue where Electrode's Localized Storm would mistakenly target the Sharpshooter's Ghostly Brute.
Updated Flaming Destroyer relic skill descriptions for clarity.
Removed errant Coldheart info that was present in Flaming Destroyer's power.
Removing an errant burn status effect on base Flaming Destroyer.
Added the word "chance" to Firestorm description so it reads correctly.
Fixed an issue with Flaming Destroyer's Magma Burst skill not having a skill description.
Fixed an issue where Flaming Destroyer Summoning Smash Tier 1 does not spawn at target location.
Updated Bane skill descriptions for clarity.
Spider Queen from Bane milestone's Web now properly interacts with enemy monsters.

PETS

Fixed an issue where Defensive Posture was not replicating its visuals.
Adding missing asset file for pet glittersprite
Pets no longer take damage from exploding barrels.
Fixed an issue where the player’s pet keeps attacking inactive Netherim Pylons.
Fixed an issue where the player's pet could get stuck trying to cast Healing Friendship instead of fighting.
Renamed the Black Cat the Blue-Gray Cat, because um, actually.
Pet cages no longer stay locked after boss death.

CLASSES & SKILLS

An extra skill point is granted every five levels, up to level 50. This results in 10 more skill points in total from levelling 1-60, for a new grand total of 70.
Removing many instances of skills calling other skills errantly.
Fixed (another) issue where charge cooldowns sometimes display incorrectly on the skill bar.
Fixed an issue where cooldowns did not display correctly.
Fixed the case where skills can double cast on the client because their active trait resource hasn't been replicated yet.
Adjusted teleports and dashes for better precision and feel.
Updated relic passive skill descriptions (revised equipped weapon requirements).

DUSK MAGE

Increased the range Spirit Well can summon its minions to prevent them from getting stuck on environment objects.
Fixed an issue where enemies would appear to lose a large chunk of health immediately when hit by Holy Fury in online mode.
Fixed an issue where Holy Bolt's tier 3 bonus would be disabled if you had the Dusk Mage set Pants equipped with their set bonus active.
Adjusted description of Entropy's tier 1 milestone for clarity.
Energy Spike is now correctly classified a cooldown for purposes of triggering Legendary and other effects.
Light Spear - 550%, up from 170% (larger increase, this was incorrectly tuned prior)
Reworked Absolver: Now while light charged the Dusk Mage infuses their targets for 2s. Causing the enemies hit to explode around them for weapon damage every second.
Dusk Mage base skill tuning adjusted, increasing core damage skills, minor reductions to over time skills: Absolver: 260% (was 190%), Dark Spears: 90% (was 100%), Energy Spike: 570% (was 440%), Entropy: 120% (was 90%), Holy Bolt: 250% (was 180%), Holy Fury: 330% (was 260%), Light Spear: 870% (was 550%), Radiant Blast: 170% (was 130%), Spirit Well: Unchanged, Unholy Bolt: 140% (was 100%)
Dusk Mage base Mana regen increased slightly
Light and Dark buff are now intertwined as "Harmonic Form", which increases both mana regeneration and damage by 50% (Mana Regeneration remaining the same from former Light Buff, damage buff reduced from 75% from former Dark Buff). It requires both bars be full before activating. Mechanically, the player must still deal damage in a relative equal manner with both Light and Dark skills before gaining the Dusk Mage's innate power advantage, but the buffs are now intertwined. By doing so, they can afford a more potent tuning than if they remain separate. Harmonic Form has been given a material override to make it look more special, but this is optional and can be skipped. VFX could give it a better treatment.
Dark and Light bars no longer decay.
As the 'duality' nature is now directly required, Light skills charge the Light bar, and Dark skills charge the Dark bar. The cross-tree encouragement is already present by way of the dual bar requirement - one must include skills from both trees to make use of the buff, just as each buff required before they were combined.
The UI for Harmonic Form doubles as its Duration indicator, draining the two bars while the buff is active and lasting until the bars are drained.
The UI now shows the entirety of the Light/Dark bar, rather than just the top 75% of the bar. The emblems at the bottom of the Mana UI were dragged down just slightly so the bars are not covered.
Help Text, Legendary Affixes and Milestone bonuses updated to refer to Harmonic Form (there aren't many)
Mouseover tooltip for Harmonic Form dynamically adjusts based on bonuses from milestones and legendary affixes (rather than a previously obtuse implementation involving alternate status effects)

SHARPSHOOTER

Editing description for Shasta skill to match the actual summon duration.
Reload now accurately displays the cooldown reduction it gets for its charges as you put points into it.
Fixed a typo in Scout's Bones name.
Pre-loading various sharpshooter procs to make them more performant.
Onslaught Performance Improvements to Missiles.
Fixed an issue where Ghost Visage removed bonus stacks when dealing with a ranged skill instead of when starting one.
Rizzi's Fate - 70%, up from 50%
Sacrifice to Goose - 60%, up from 40%

FORGED

Improved Forged's Vent: Furnace Blast's usability. The skill now can be interrupted much faster than before, and can interrupt itself, so holding down the skill hotkey will allow very quick repeated casts. The cone shape has been slightly widened. The skill no longer attempts to move into proper position, instead always firing at the direction given, so it always fires the skill whenever the button is pressed.
Fixed an issue where the heat meter would not update correctly in some circumstances.
Fixed it so the tier 1 milestone for Poison Dart both slows and damages enemies.
Power Projection no longer heals enemies.
Improved Forged's Vent: Furnace Blast's usability. The skill now can be interrupted much faster than before, and can interrupt itself, so holding down the skill hotkey will allow very quick repeated casts. The cone shape has been slightly widened. The skill no longer attempts to move into proper position, instead always firing at the direction given, so it always fires the skill whenever the button is pressed.
The Forged Legendary 'Servo-Blade' now functions once again as described. The repeated series of uppercuts no longer fails to deal damage.
Fix for Forged tread shadows.

RAILMASTER

Fixed an issue where railmaster train cars could get horribly messed up.
Torque Swing - 260%, up from 210%.
Fixed an issue with Flamethrower and Shotgun car's endurance bonus never deactivating.
Flamethrower Car's Active skill's damage is now completely frontloaded - no Damage over Time effect is applied with this skill.
Fixed incorrect cooldown time displayed on Spike Drive.
Fixed text format in: Flamethrower Car, Shotgonne Car, Shield Car, Mortar Car
Changed Endurance degen from having the Train out to be a Drain effect instead of a negative Regen, so it doesn't show up in the stats panel.

Updated the following quest rewards in: Unearthed Evidence, Expansion Pack, The Astral Door.
Wideload's Decorative Shield (fort prop account reward) will unlock upon turning in the quest, "Unearthed Evidence," to General Graye for the first time.
The Shared Stash Tab story quest rewards upon completing Brall Brawl, Sadistic Sorcery, and The Core Gateway are each granted once per account.

Reduced required count of Automaton Arms for the "Part Picking" quest from 8 to 6.

ITEMS & GEAR

Fixed cases where players could consume items without gaining their benefits.
Fixed an exploit where it was possible to sell potions in a way that replenishes potion stacks in inventory, giving the player a way to obtain an infinite amount of gold.
Decreased the chance that potions drop from champions slightly, from 33% to 30%.
Resolved issues where the stash limit was reached sooner than expected: Shared Stash Tab consumable item can now be destroyed.
The consumable item, "Pancakes of Champions," now has a stack count of 5 instead of 1 in the consumable inventory. The health boost itself is still restricted to 1 stack (i.e. buff does not stack).
Contracts now reward individual map scrolls instead of bundles of 3 map scrolls.
Shifted some of the map scroll rewards in contracts around so that they do not drop from the first 20 or so contract levels.
Reduced the number of map scroll rewards in the once-through section of the Adventurer's contract from 5 to 3. Reduced the number of map scroll rewards in the looping section of the Adventurer's contract from 2 to 1.
Dev Note: Map Scroll dungeons are intended to be a fun diversion from the story path of the game or something that you use to grind out XP and collect gear if you get behind at higher levels, but we have found that if players ran the Map Scroll dungeons as soon as they got them, they were early enough level that the XP and gear from the Map Scroll dungeons could boost them enough that they would be over-leveled for subsequent dungeons in the story. By giving you fewer of these and shifting them to later in your progression, we hope that tackling a dungeon or two won't ruin your normal sense of progression.
Map scrolls no longer change their affixes on pickup and stack when they shouldn't.
Map scrolls now vary solely by their beneficial affix. The primary element of the dungeon it will summon will now be a surprise to you, but the benefit is not. Are you prepared? Is it worth taking the chance?
There are Supply Run, Gold Rush, Lifebound and Harvest maps in both rare and legendary quality, all of which stack up to 20 in a stack now.
The maps awarded from contracts now vary by contract, so you'll find lifebound and gear luck maps in the Adventurer's contract, gold maps in the Homesteader's contract and harvest maps in the Craftsman's contract.
Fixed Phase Dungeons not always giving Scrolls of Lifebound from Bosses and Boss Chests.
Distributed armor colors across gear levels and rarities.
Added more variety to the color of lvl 60 armor drops.
Fixed several imbalances with Basic Attack weapon damage across the various weapon types. Basic Weapon damage has been changed, as follows:
- Bow - Unchanged
- Digitus - Unchanged
- Great Weapon - Now deals 350% (up from 175%) Net Change: +175%
- Mace - Now deals 150% (down from225%) Net Change: -75%
- Pistol - Now deals 90% (up from 75%) Net Change: +15%
- Rifle - Now deals 140% (up from 100%) Net Change: +40%
- Sword - Now deals 110% (up from 75%) Net Change: +35%
- Railhammer - Now deals 290% (up from 200%) Net Change: +90%
- Staff - Unchanged
Fixed an issue where Weapon Damage percentage numbers are set to 0 for all skills (class,relic,pet), players receive 'Equip Weapon to Deal Damage" message in combat, even with a weapon equipped.
Fixed cases where starting boots would get too much defense and cases where normal quality chest armor could get too little armor.
Players should be able to unlock legendary affixes on pickup.
Set some status effects to properly respect immunity affixes.
Fixed Wideload's Cavebreaker's legendary affix only working when in Legendarium, not on the item itself.
Removed the mana cost reduction affix for Shadow Step. It no longer uses mana.
Reduced freeze chance on weapon affixes, and reduced the duration across all rarities.
Legendary affixes that refer to the Relic Power no longer drop until level 20.
Set affixes that enhance other affixes (like + chance or +duration) to not drop on items until level 20, when you are more familiar with the status effects and have likely started to opt more into one of them.
Increased the chance values for many elemental proc status effects (including DoTs) to make them more worth using.
Removed affixes that add chance to elemental proc affixes from weapons, added them to gloves.
Removed affixes that add duration to elemental proc affixes from weapons, added them to boots and hatches.
This tuning pass includes: Stun, Bleed, Blind, Burn, Chill, Freeze, Immobilize, Poison, Shock
Fixed cannons not dropping with a primary critical hit affix and bonus secondary affix like 2H weapons (except for your starter cannon).
The Raging Beater legendary affix now functions again as described.
Fixed Legendary Cosmic Pants (for the Railmaster) that referred to an old skill "Glacier" instead of Frost Blast.
Fixed an issue where the Cosmic Pants set bonus does not give 100% Endurance restore chance on Spinning Blade.
Fixed herman archers from using Tight Grouping continuously when there are no enemies around.
Fixed an issue where older Mountain King feet items for Forged appeared in Legendarium. Only the Wheel exists in actual play, so the Tentacle and Treads have been removed from the list.
Corrected Sharpshooter armor assets that were swapped in quality (common and magic).
Changed rare Sharpshooter helm, shoulders, gloves and boots that were dropping in Act 2 to be dropped in Act 3 instead, along with new accompanying Act 3 themed chest and pants armor.
Fixed magic quality armor that was using reused assets for the Sharpshooter.
Sharpshooter trinkets no longer trigger in the skill bar.
Added new rare Sharpshooter helm "Wanderer's Hat" and shoulders "Cords of the Moon," which drop from Act 1 onward.
Added new rare Sharpshooter helm "Expedition Hat" and shoulders "Champion Pauldrons" which drop from Act 2 onward.
Fixed 1-handed mace animations.
Adjusted Forged movement with 1H sword attacks. Also adjusted all sword and mace based animations with Snake, Ball, Treads and Crab.
Fixed issue with flippy animations for armor and weapons go over head height.
Fixed an issue where boots remains on Dusk Mage's legs when they are unequipped
Fixed an issue where bow & staves clip into the Sharpshooter when during the equip animation.
Fixed an issue where the Sharpshooter's placeholder bow wouldn't animate when using Tight Grouping.
Fixed issue where Skittering Shoulders have Woodsbeast Shoulders sticking out of them.
Fixed issue where Bullshot Bow's adornment snaps to a bent position after returning to idle.

FORTS

Increased the camera distance for Forts, reduced depth of field so that things aren't blurry from that distance, fixed the rotation of fort passages to be more head so that objects on the left side of fort can be seen.
Enabled the Training Dummy in the fort.
Made a ‘better’ default fort.
Players can now report forts as inappropriate.
Fixed an issue where a fort asset preview & description stop updating to the current selection after you've placed a decoration.
Fixed an issue where the second pet tag cannot be removed from the Bronze Dusk Mage Statue under specific circumstances.
Lowered the prices on all common and magic quality fort buildings. Lowered the harvesting and refined resource prices on some of the rare decorations, increased the gold prices a bit on some of the rare and legendary fort decorations.
Fixed an edge case where quest rewards that go into the fort inventory could be lost.
Fixed Sgt. Klive sometimes appearing in other locations around your fort.
Fixed an issue that prevented the Luck Tree from being interactable after initially placing it.
Updated the tuning on the fort monument leveling rate to better match our goals. The Goblin and Hyvid monuments increased in required currency, whereas the automaton monument decreased (slightly).
Temporary fix for pet enchantment Resistance being not functional.
Fixed an issue where the enchanting description would show a different possible affix each time rather than all possible affixes.
Moved the Enchanting Altar from the Skill Stations subcategory (what was it even doing there?) to the Crafting subcategory.
The Enchanter's Altar once again unlocks after completing "The Core Gateway". (Other prerequisites include: "Tutorial: Legendarium" and "Tutorial: Props & Property").
Sgt. Klive will unlock the Enchanter's Altar fort prop in the "Tutorial: Simply Enchanting" account quest. The prop will no longer appear under the Functional tab by default until then.
Updated Legendarium and Enchanting tutorial pop-ups to no longer require the Enchanter's Altar to break down Legendary items to gain Legendarium passives since they unlock automatically on pick-up.
Fixed an issue with some Enchantment slots in Pet Tag & Collar being locked after the item was equipped.

FAZEER’S DUN’DJINN

Fixed an issue where the Angered Ancestor ghost does not follow the player if they run too far away.
Fixed an issue where leaving and re-entering the area in multiplayer spawns an additional Ancestor Ghost.
Lowered the chance that a pet cage is in the boss arena at the end of mapworks (Fazeer's Dun'djinn, Phase, or Map Scroll) dungeons from 50% to 30%.
The Fazeer's Dun'djinn beneficial affix Reliquarian and the detrimental affix Cursed Relic will no longer be picked for the same card.

MONSTERS

Fixed issue so that dying monsters won’t show their health bar.
Fixed an issue where players would sometimes miss out on boss kill credit.
Reduced the number of monsters in Spider, Netherim, Hyvid packs.
Fixed an issue where Status Effect diminishing returns are not functioning.
Changed the monster spawn logic for many areas so that they do not request common rarity monsters, or request them less often, so that we don't get an imbalance in the rarity of monsters, leading to things like the Phase Beasts, Witches or Fire Sentries spawning too frequently.
Converted regular boss spawners to triggered boss spawners in mini boss/cul de sac areas to prevent wandering creatures and premature fights.
Monster Hazard updates: Doubled goblin grenade damage & decreased damage from Acidic End poison hazard from 150% to 120%
Fixed an issue where monster hazards were not applying their touch or motion factors, which caused them to be too hazardous.
Reduced damage from the Blazing affix, prevented pets from being damaged by it. Created a separate version specifically for Bruce Killis to reduce his threat without having to lower the difficulty of the affix throughout the game.
Chill now reduces monster move speed down to 25%, regardless of difficulty, instead of 50%, as when that is applied on Ridiculous difficulty, it essentially just puts monsters at normal move speed.
Increased the duration of the base chill affixes slightly.
Gravity Well is now an affix only for the Challenge Dungeon.
Netherwell now is picked for champions half as often as other affixes.
Fixed an issue where Champions with the 'Berserker Rage' affix have their Rage indicator displayed after death.
Fixed an issue where Storm's End affix would sometimes stick around after the pack of champions has died.
Increased the cooldown on the "Nether Well" monster affix from 6 seconds to 10 so that you get a bit more breathing room between Nether Well hazards.
The monster affix 'Nether Well' now cannot appear until level 15 zones.
Mimic chests no longer add a nameplate to themselves when hiding.
Fixing mimics as part of: Holding down ALT should show gadget nameplates.
Voltura Gliders when spawned via a breakable trap now use the Spawn Emerge animation.
Spider Queen web will now actually overlap with enemies.
Netherim Heralds no longer have a decal on the ground (like other bosses that do not have normal population equivalents).
Fixed Goblin for Rapid Strike knock back.
Increased move speed on Infested Goblins.
Increased hitpoints and damage dealt from Infested Goblins.
Fixed the Fiery Custodians who were using the wrong animation to attack. These now deal actual, real live damage (fire, in particular). Look out!
Automaton and undead mapworks dungeons should now have a better mix of champion types, as the shield bearing Skeletal Knight undead are now spawned as Legendary or Unique solo champs and the Custodian automatons now spawn as elite quality pack champions.
Adjusted Automaton Hulk turn speed to align with size and movement speed changes.
Adjusted Automaton click and main capsules.
Fixed an issue where automatons click space was too small, making it near impossible to melee them.
Reduced the scale of the Automaton Emberhulks to 75%, reduced the move speed to the same scale.
Skeleton Melee, shield and ranged all use proper spawn climb distance when entering gameplay from a cliff.
Fixed an issue where Skeletal Slayer's shield floats in the air during the spawn from the tomb animation.
Addressed outrageous numbers of mossrats spawning in the Mossrat Den.
Mossrats, Cragrats, and Mossrats of Unusual Size now do not get quite so large when spawned as champions.
Fixed Mossrats of Unusual Size not casting shadows.
Mossrats now use climb up spawn distance instead of emerge when climbing up cliff sides.
Reduced the size of the Netherim Brute's collision mesh, so you can get closer to attack them at melee range, not look like you're swiping at the air.
Netherim Warrior Polish, Faster Slash attack, revised idle, removed foot sliding during run.
Gave the Netherim Champion some missing spawn skills to help it spawn more reliably, especially when a mini-boss.
Fixed root motion on netherling death_02 - randomized deaths are not working for netherlings and melee goblins.
Fixed Phase Beasts spawning too frequently in Bugswat Burrow (again).
Lowered the spawn rate of Phase Beasts to avoid situations where they spawn often enough that multiple of them are onscreen at a time.
Lowered from 1.28% - to 1.57% chance when spawning (depending on the area) to 1.03% chance in all areas in which Phase Beasts are allowed to spawn (hubs and non-boss arena dungeon areas after level.
Improved AI behavior for Witch and Thorned Strider.
Increased hitpoints of Witches (bosses excluded).
Doubled damage dealt by Witches (bosses excluded).
Fixed Witch boss spawning its army of minions only once.
Gave champion (legendary and unique) witches more interesting unique names.
Monster spawn polish in The Chasm.
Updated Den of Upheaval boss arena to be clear of monster spawns.
Set Acrid Plains to only have 75% of the spawners active at a time to help with framerate issues.
Adjusted the boss fight area in Echonok Vault Challenge Dungeons to resolve instances of bosses that reset when you move too far away.
Fixed an issue where Algramath, Warden of the Falls title bar shows no name and low health.
Fixed Zephoras is facing the wall in Venomous Nest.
Fixed cocooned Zephoras that was missing from specific instances of Venomous Nest in order to complete The Recluse quest.
Fixed Xardox spawning or in an area that the player cannot get to.
Made a bigger level for Ol' Wally.
Added a missing spawn skill for the mapworks miniboss Gundaddy, so he'll more reliably spawn.
Fixed an issue with the trigger for the boss spawner in Psora boss arena for mapworks being too small and causing Psora not to spawn immediately.
Slightly reduced health of Wideload and Secret Weapon.
Adjusted Ordrak's Click Capsule lower so that skillshapes that hit the ground aren't gigantic.
Adjusted chance for elite/champion monsters to ignore pets/minions.
Champion and Boss monsters provide more XP than normal monsters.
Legendary champions now more often spawn with packs of minions, though sometimes just packs of minions may spawn.
Fixed an issue where Champions switch targets too frequently, making their damage output weak.
Improved XP curve for player level. It's now at about 150% of the old XP curve.
Support separate monster damage curves per difficulty level.
Adjusted the monster health curves to make it less of a slog at higher difficulties (again):
Smoothed out somewhat jarring increases in monster health between levels 7 - 10.
Set the monster health at low levels (1 - 20) of Painful and Ridiculous to the same values as those at Normal difficulty.
Adjusted the Painful and Ridiculous health curves to compensate for the base damage reduction by difficulty level.
Dev Note: Adding more health to monsters at higher difficulty levels is necessary to push players to optimize damage dealing, but we went overboard last time and it did not get enough dedicated testing. Too much health leads to combat being a slog, which we do not want. We hope that these new values maintain the challenge we intend at each difficulty level without making damage-dealing tiresome.
Increased regular monster damage vs. players:
Increased champion monster damage vs. players:
Increased boss monster damage vs. players:
Increased player damage vs. regular monsters:
Increased player damage vs. champions:
Increased player damage vs. bosses:
Raised the amount of player damage applied to monsters due to the number of players in an instance:
Increased monster move speed by difficulty level:
Decreased the base health of immobile, non-attacking monsters (Corrupt Hyvid Crystal, Voltura Coil, Hyvid Egg Pods, etc.) by approximately 25%, so that they are still tough enough to still provide the layering gameplay needed, but at higher difficulties, won't be quite as much of a slog.
Dev Note: We also made difficulty choice a required step during character creation, so you don't accidentally get stuck with a difficulty shield you didn't want. Additionally we added a general description to the difficulty menu to explain what changes by difficulty level.

Mainline Patch - September 15th, 2020 (Part 1)

Torchlight III - Echtra Bean

Check out our Discord, Facebook, Twitter, and Twitch to get the latest development news and updates.

Good morning frontier!

Another day, another update - this week’s update focuses on bug fixes, general quality of life updates, and community feedback we received after the Relic Subclass update.

10 ADDITIONAL SKILL POINTS
In order to allow older characters to obtain their additional skill points we had to implement a skill point reset with this update. You will need to spend your skill points again after updating and logging back into the game.

DUSK MAGE
Dusk Mage is receiving a big update to its mechanics in order to provide a more balanced and viable class for those who want more flavor and opportunities from its skills. Michael (Torchlight III Game Designer) explained the thought process behind this change further with me in last week’s State of the Game, so check it out if you are interested in more of the background behind the changes.

DIFFICULTY TUNING
Additionally, difficulty tuning has been a priority over the last few weeks and we’ve made extensive adjustments based on both feedback and internal testing. You can read in the previous State of the Game or in the patch notes below.

LEGENDARIUM & ENCHANTING
To make Enchanting a more understandable experience for new players and those entering late game, we extracted the Legendarium from the Enchanting feature. This means Legendary items should now unlock its affix immediately upon pick up.

OTHER UPDATES
A complete review and tuning of all difficulty levels, including various tuning for monsters and players.
https://torchlight3.nolt.io/2072

Added 10 more skill points. You will receive an extra skill point every 5 levels until level 50.
https://torchlight3.nolt.io/2063

Added a Training Dummy to the Fort
