*** UI ***
- The Marketplace now has a preview tab so you can instantly preview the items.
- Fixed some crash issues when using a custom UI that doesn't have the "MKPW_Subwindows" element in the Marketplace window.
- Fixed a bug that was causing certain windows to not properly resize when inside tab windows.
- Fixed a bunch of display issues regarding lighting, scaling, and camera angles with the preview window.
- Fixed a bug where the item window wasn't properly displaying the skill mod stat for blunt weapons.
- Fixed a resizing bug where if a window was resized to smaller than its min size during a single cursor move (or to larger than its max size), then no resizing would be done, rather than it being resized to the min/max size. It will now be resized to the min/max size in that situation.

"Looks like Maz was right.. - Thoraf"

"Have you noticed that nobody who thinks 'Maz is right' still plays? - Melo"
"Now Melo doesn't play! Cursed! - Fny"

Either way their wording leaves something to be desired.
This one for me looks interesting;
- Monk - Drunken Monkey Style should no longer interfere with other combat abilities.
I'm hoping what it means is that I can now click Drunken Monkey while a combat discipline is already running (previously you couldn't) which means Monks will all of a sudden go from 20k DPS on burns to well above 30k. I'm really hoping that's what they did.
Sorry Sab,
This is taken from the Munkey boards:
Figured I'd give everyone a heads up.
We're getting significantly nerfed with this next patch. Although you can argue that this is a "fix" Drunken Monkey Style has been working this way since it was first implemented. It is still a crushing hit to our DPS, I am not looking forward to this at all.
With the next patch Drunken Monkey Style will have a hard 30 second re-use timer, and it will share a timer with Cloud of Fists and Vigorous Shuriken, meaning they will be locked out as well if you want to use DMS at all.
Was fun while it lasted, I guess we're going to be back to being a subpar DPS class.

This means if it gives plus 40 dodge now, it will only gives that much in the future and will not be scalable like it is currently. The cap number wil be mentioned on it I believe.Saburo wrote:That one confused me also.

It also has an initial endurance cost AND an upkeep now. It eats endurance more than it did before
