Damage
- Fixed an outlier issue where damage exceeding a creature's remaining health could grant incorrect (larger) Looting Rights percent.

Taming
Swoop Upgrade
- Fixed issue causing Swoop ability to inflict unintended extra damage.

Skill Gain
- Dramatically increased Herding skill gain when using a Shepherd's Crook to Focus Aggression.
- Significantly increased passive skill gain for Animal Lore and Herding while making Animal Taming attempts.
Crafting
- Fixed issue where crafting using multiple Commodities only gave Achievement credit for one Commodity.

- Fixed issue where nearby non-Humanoid creatures could sometimes cause a Stealing attempt to be "Noticed".
Arcane Runes

Custodians
- Increased Stats and Damage of Custodians spawning in Boss Rooms.
Poker
- Chat disabled in Poker Games, except for those with "Guild" access level.
