Dungeons

• Castle Thorn
  • Dread Tindulra's Flame Retch no longer inexplicably removes player abilities.
• Stone Garden
  • General
    • Zoning into a fresh version of this dungeon now removes any of the Alchemized boons that were applied in previous instances of Stone Garden.
  • Arkasis the Mad Alchemist
    • Shutting off a Vitalizer Flow Control now correctly stops the Dwemer pistons from pumping fluids into the corresponding Bloodknight container in Arkasis Laboratory.

General

• Necromancer, Vampire and Werewolf abilities designated as “Criminal Acts” will once again accrue bounty if used near town guards.

Mundus Stones

• The Thief: Reduced the Critical Chance ratings granted to 1333, down from 1537. 
  Developer Comment:
  Along with Precise, both of these sources of Critical Chance have been reduced to our new standard of Set Bonus Efficiency, which we will move to at a more holistic level in a future update.

Traits

• Precise: Reduced the Critical Chance granted to 7.2%, down from 8.6%. 
  • Known Issue: One-Handed Weapons currently appear to not get the full amount and are missing .1% Critical Chance on the character UI. 

Item Sets

• Arkasis: Fixed an issue where this set had no range to applying its bonus. As much of a handsome mad genius Arkasis was, he was not capable of infusing victims from thousands of meters away. 
• Titanborn Strength: This set now only applies its enhanced bonuses based on Missing Health while you are in combat. This set will help reduce the staggering amount of kill potential when paired with stealth and self-damaging abilities such as Blood Frenzy.
