Murderers
- Murderers that die in a Dungeon (excluding Wilderness) now always have a minimum Region Restriction of 15 minutes for that region (in addition to any restrictions from recent murders).
Aspects
- Players can no longer freely swap directly from Fortune Aspect to Gadget Aspect or Harvest Aspect (and vice versa).
Lockpicking and Remove Trap
- Players can now enable "Continous Lockpicking" and "Continuous Remove Trap" for Treasure Map Chests, Dungeon Chests, and Locksmith Training Boxes via checkboxes in the skill usage gump.
- Continuous Lockpicking: Continues attempts until chest unlocks.
- Continuous Remove Trap: Continues attempts until traps removed or detonated.
- If a tool breaks, a new tool of the same resource type will be automatically used if available. Automatic attempts stop if no suitable tool is found.
Tamed Followers
- Fixed outlier issue where a few Tamed Followers had >5% starting Attack Speed.
- Frost Mephit "Spellchill" ability now benefits from "Frostbite" Utility Class Upgrade.
- Snow Drift "Flurry" ability description updated: "Fires a projectile at a target up to 6 tiles away, inflicting (DamageMax * 1.3) damage and applying a chill effect of (Control Slots * 2%) for 60 seconds (stacks up to 20%)" (Note: Chill stack cap changed from 25% to 20% in Patch 24.01.13).
- Fixed issue where "Pelt" Attack Class Upgrade miscalculated ranged distance.
- "Crush" ability correctly labeled as "Cooldown" type.
Zoology
- Fixed issue preventing weekly creature rankings for Zoology bonuses from populating correctly (for real this time!).
- Rankings reset at patch time, should track properly going forward.
Societies
- Fixed issue with some Society Jobs displaying incorrect Material Hue for required crafted item.
Mount Breeding
- Body Value now visible in Animal Lore Menu for breeding-capable animals.
- Body Value of parent creatures now visible in Mount Breeding Menu.

Stygian Rifts
- Exit Moongate removed from Stygian Rift events.
Wall of Stone and Energy Field
- Wall of Stone and Energy Field spells no longer qualify for Mana Refunds.
Skinning
- Players no longer prompted with a Captcha when Skinning corpses on the Ocean.
Beeswax
- Weight reduced to 0.01 Stones (was 1 stone).

Guilds
- Players can now type `[TradeCaravan` or `[TradeCaravans` to jump immediately to the "Trade Caravans" page of the Guild Menu.
Ships
- Attempting to repair a ship now shows remaining Repair Cooldown time AND time until "Clear" of Fray (allowing unlimited repairs out of combat).
