Below you will find a list of hotfixes recently implemented in our Friends & Family Betathat address various bugs and mechanic tweaks. These have been implemented to encourage experimenting with other items, skills, or mechanics while we revisit them for the next patch.

Some of the hotfixes below will go live the moment they are implemented while others may require a restart of the game to go into effect.
