-6 seconds Desync and Rubber-band effect are fixed and will never occur ever again especially when you are fighting Oak and 6 magic devourers at lvl 73 maps alone
Race? Season points? Nah. Not my thing.
Once a map has been corrupted the associated boss can drop a sacrifice fragment.
1) Desync fixed
2) Artwork of minimap reworked for better clarity
3) In an effort to reduce clutter, monster loot which would fail to meet any of the following requirements has a 50% chance of not being spawned instead:
-equip level of base item type close to zone level (within about 5 levels or 25%, whichever range is larger)
-has a minimum number of sockets (depending on zone level), if not maxed
-rare or better quality (this rule is only applied in maps)
-has superior attribute (alternatively: increase drop rate of glassblowers)
-is a gem, currency, map, or quest item
UI Menu updates:
- Added toggle for weather effects.
- Added toggle for other players' MTX effects.
- Added slider for particle effect amount.
- Added toggle for 8 skill hotkeys (3 mouse, 5 keyboard) for setting attack while holding position as default for the skill assigned.
- Added toggle for displaying itemlevel on items details.

Forsaken Master updates:
- 'of Crafting' mod cost changed from 2 exalted orbs to 80 chaos orbs.
- Vagan's daily discount offer changed from '10 Orbs of Alchemy for 8 orbs of Regret' to ' 10 Orbs of Regret for 16 Orbs of Alchemy'

This is probably a dumb idea, since my bad map drop RNG gave me very little incentive to experience the mapping late game. All I know is that I'm tired of how map drop RNG makes leveling expensive and a pain later in the game, so how about this: a (mostly) skill-based system instead of an entirely luck-based one. I don't know how badly this would screw over the system, but it seemed like an interesting idea.

- Maps no longer drop as normal loot, except from strongboxes. Instead, map bosses always drop exactly two maps, which are equal to the level of the current map, but are of a random base type. Maps with multiple bosses still only drop two maps total, and only when the last one is defeated. The drop rate is not affected by increased item quantity, and always drops for the map's creator.

- The difficulty of most map bosses has been increased substantially.

So now you can sustain a map pool only if you can defeat the boss(es) at the end. If you want to go to higher level maps, you must collect enough of them to use the vendor recipe to increase the level. I don't know about you, but it would certainly make me happy to have a deterministic way of leveling with maps.

If you put on your full plate mail, and I throw hundreds of toothpicks at you, you'll basically not feel it.

If someone catapults a whole tree at you, don't expect the Armour to prevent as much of the damage.
Orbs formed from fragments now automatically stack.
