You're probably right. After thinking about it it seems that I probably won't need to taunt more than once a minute with the new enmity adjustments. We'll see how it turns out, I may be pleasantly surprised.

light thrust->evade->simian thrash->flurry->taunt->light thrust, etc should be pretty good, especially since they increased potency of simian thrash.

I also wonder if taunt and taunt II will be separate, notice the different timers now.

wow nice patch

Of the stuff we haven't heard already, this perked my pointed ears up.

[dev1117] The BGM for several select areas has been changed.

And a bug fix for:

Lalafell graphics not displaying properly.

What was that all about?

@Eekiki

Oh yeah, that caught my interest with the music change. I wonder what we're getting and where.

Now i really can't wait to get the patch download!! Then a night of no sleep since i have the day off tomorrow!!

Kind of concerned about this snippit

[dev1118] The behavior of several enemies has been adjusted.

Some monsters that would sense a nearby adventurer, move to investigate, then attack, will now attack immediately upon sensing.

Does that mean efts are going to auto agro now? Thats ultra lame it was so damn cool that you could avoid them if you were crafty enough.
