• Party members may not leave the party while in a dungeon. They must first recall to a public space.
• Any open conversations are closed when a player recalls out to ensure neither the player nor the NPC get locked.
• Attempting to abandon a story arc quest alerts the player that they are abandoning multiple quests and lists these quests.
• When running an adventure on solo for the first time, the XP panel incorrectly said "first time completing on elite". This has been fixed to say "first time completing on solo". This was a text error only - the first time bonuses for solo and elite were otherwise working properly.
• Bonebite Hideout
  • The ogre's kobold friends always arrive to help defend him.
• Catacombs
  • Changes to Archbishop Dryden:
    • Dryden now completes quests in the Catacombs arc (and allow players to choose rewards) before bestowing the next quest in the arc.
    • Reminders have been added to Dryden to help groups remember to complete and advance their Catacombs quests. This should help prevent groups of players working their way through the Catacombs from accidentally getting "out of synch."
    • Archbishop Dryden no longer fights players in the "Seek Dryden's Counsel" adventure. Players who are ready to confront Dryden are directed to face him in the "Endgame" adventure. Additionally, in "Endgame," Dryden only speaks to players who are on the correct quest phase to confront him.
• Caverns of Korromar
  • The Ability score DCs required to complete certain objectives in Caverns of Korromar have been removed. Characters of all classes are able to complete the main objective.

• Ruins of Threnal
  • A particularly nasty colony of glass spider queens has moved in to the South Threnal caves and, in the process, chased away many of the slimes that had been residing there.
  • The beholder objective has been clarified to indicate the beholder in the caves.
  • The objectives for acquiring the silver and jeweled keys has changed to opening the doors requiring those keys. Each door has a lockpick skill set on it. A party with a talented rogue may advance by picking those doors, a party without may advance by finding the keys.
  • Players can no longer use the Rest Shrine doors to "trap" the NPCs they are escorting in the Library.
• The Scorched Caverns
