Hirelings[edit]

  • Several Cleric hirelings (especially Erythyn Veridyn, Elieri Thistledown, and Maloren) have had a stern talking to by Archbishop Dryden, and should not wait as long to heal players.

  • Astral Diamonds are now more plentiful in treasure (and Devil Assault on harder difficulties.)
