GAMEPLAY

- Skeleton King: Removed for pressing ceremonial reasons

Update Notes - December 5, 2013

• Fixed a bug that caused some gem names and stat values to get truncated in the tooltip.

• Recipe costs have been reduced. This change will affect newly dropped recipes.

• Items with gems that convey the Inscribed, Autographed, and Ascendant qualities will now appear consistently. If the gemmed item already had a special quality (like Genuine) then that special quality will take precedence over the gem quality.

• Several issues with crafting have been fixed:

• A bug that made it appear that items were 'eaten' by crafting has been fixed. No items were actually eaten (they are still in your inventory). For example, a recipe that took 5 inputs would sometimes only consume 4 of the inputs and remain incomplete. The 5th item was never consumed even though it appeared to be by the UI. Recipes will now consume the correct number of items.

• A bug has been fixed that made the display of some recipes show the wrong type of items already fulfilled (i.e.: 4 of the same thing when actually 4 different items were fulfilled).

• The server is notified of a crafting attempt earlier in the crafting process so that crafting results will appear earlier.

• The crafting completed animation now also plays for partial crafts. A dialog will appear during a partial craft indicating the recipe is not complete and needs more components to be finalized.

• The tradability policy for socketed gems and crafted items has changed:

• Gems extracted from an item that is "tradable after date" now become tradable after the same date.

• Gems extracted from an item that can never be traded no longer inherit that restriction. You can safely add gems to a permanently untradable item without the gems becoming permanently untradable.

• Gems that are not tradable (like Ascendant gems) will make the item they are added to untradable, but only while those gems are socketed. Extracting the gems will remove the trade restriction from the item they are added to.

• If one or more crafted inputs are "tradable after date" then the recipe and output will become "tradable after date" with the latest date of the inputs.

• If one or more crafted inputs are permanently untradable then the recipe and output will become permanently untradable.

• All previously crafted items have been grandfathered into these new rules and have been made tradable.

- Some issues with client item acknowledgement have been fixed that caused items to be "invisible" to the armory but visible in the Steam backpack.

- When an item is hammered and its gems extracted, the now gemless item and the extracted gems will all popup as newly found items.

- A bug that caused gems to get stacked on top of the item they were extracted from in the armory UI has been fixed. Items that are hidden under gems can be found by moving the gems or sorting the backpack.

- We are in the process of restoring items that had their original special quality (genuine, vintage, etc) changed by gems. At the moment the Inscribed, Autographed, and Ascended qualities will only be set on items that have no other special quality.

- The reason for a new item entering the armory is now displayed in the item drop popup, i.e.: "Customer Support Granted You:" or "You Earned a Drop:"

- Base Magic Resistance increased from 0 to 50%

Update Notes - November 20, 2013

The winners of today's Diretide cycle have been chosen a bit differently: Due to a bug in our UI the top score did not actually represent the current kill leader. Some teams went as far as they could, reaching an impressive 218 level kill. Others played the timing game and tried to one up who they thought the current leader was based on the Leaderboard.

We've decided to reward winners of both the highest level kill and the current highest score on the Leaderboard.

Cycle 7 Diretide Changes:

- Roshan can no longer be hexxed or stunned during Sugar Rush.

Update Notes - November 19, 2013

* Couriers that scale their particle effects based on their games viewed will work again.

* Fixed several bugs that caused recipes to be generated with incorrect requirements.

* Fixed a bug that caused the UI for a recipe that requires multiple inputs of a particular rarity to incorrectly display a requirement for a specific item once the input requirement was partially fulfilled.

* Uncraftable items will no longer be generated as required inputs for recipes. Recipes that currently have uncraftable inputs will be adjusted to require a random item of the same rarity.

* Fixed a bug where inscribed gems would only display their first digit on the Steam Community Market.

* Inscribed gems now are named only by the type of stat they track instead of the type of stat they track and the value. This means that all items of the same type will appear together on the Steam Community Market. I.e.: No more "Kills: 1" category and "Kills: 2" category instead there would just be one "Kills" category.

- Roshan no longer belly aches.

- Coaches are able to use in-player perspective views and broadcaster tools like line drawing to teach their students. They are able to ping on the ground, the minimap, and anywhere in the HUD itself.

Economy

Steam Community Market

- This update may greatly disrupt market prices. In order to prevent items being purchased at pre-update prices for arbitrage, we are removing all item listings and returning them to their owners. While this removal process is taking place, new items will not be able to be listed on the Steam Community Market.

- You can now list an item on the market from the armory (right click: sell on the market).

- Armory item tooltips now contain the current lowest trading price for an item of the same class as the one highlighted. (Class is a somewhat flexible concept at the moment, so unusual courier prices will be less accurate than a specific wearable piece of equipment.)

Crafting

- Crafting recipes now have a chance of dropping as a bonus item. These drops do not take up your normal drops, but are in addition to them.

Polymorph Recipes

- These recipes take a variable number of any input of the same rarity and output a random other item of the same rarity. Example: 2 of Any Rare => 1 Random Different Rare

Augment Recipes

- These recipes take a combination of inputs of the same rarity and output a random other item of the next best rarity. Example: 1 of Any Common & 1 Wavecrester => 1 Random Uncommon

Ancient Scroll Case

- A new type of Treasure Chest called the "Ancient Scroll Case" has been added. These cases drop multiple recipes when they are opened.

- The Ancient Scroll Case has a chance to drop an Exceptional Recipe. These make items that were previously only available as Genuine quality promotional items. The recipe creates a non-genuine version of the item.

Gems & Sockets

- Items can now have up to 5 sockets.

- A socket can receive a gem. Each socket can only contain one gem.

- Some sockets require specific types of gems.

- When a gem is added to a socket that already contains a gem, the previous gem is destroyed.

New Socketing Tools:

- Artificer's Chisel: Adds a socket to an item.

- Artificer's Hammer: Extracts the gems from an item.

Gem Types:

- Kinetic Gems

- Adds a new animation to the hero using the item.

- The item they are added to changes to the "Inscribed" quality.

Ethereal Gems

- Adds a particle effect to the item.

- All unusual effects can now be colorized.

Prismatic Gems

- Colorizes the particle effect on the effect gem.

Ascendant Gems

- The Ascendant Orb, Gem of Taegeuk, and Bloodstones are now Ascendant Gems.

Autograph Runes

- Autographs are now Autograph Runes.

- Allows you to tag an item with a pro player's autograph.

- Since an item can have 5 sockets, you can now get a whole team to autograph an item.

- The item they are added to changes to the "Autographed" quality.

Spectator Gems

- Items that previously tracked 'games viewed' now contain spectator gems.

- Spectator gems follow a specific league or team.

- Styles that previously required 'games viewed' now require a gem with the same number of games viewed (for the correct league / player / team / etc).

- Ethereal & Prismatic gems are used together on unusual items (couriers).

- More types of gems will be coming in the future.

- Unusual items do not change quality when gems are added. Non-unusual items will change in the order gems are added.

Item Quality Keywords

- The item quality keyword "Vintage" has been changed to "Elder".

- The item quality keyword "Tournament" has been changed to "Heroic".

- The item quality keyword "Haunted" has been changed to "Cursed".

- The item quality keyword "Strange" has been changed to "Inscribed".

Strange Items

- Strange modifiers on items have been converted into stat tracking Inscribed Gems.

- The stats on items are no longer wiped when an item is traded.

- Strange modifiers that haven't been applied have been turned into 'gem packs' that grant a living stat tracking gem and a Artificer's Chisel to create a socket on an item.

- Previously strange quality items are now have the inscribed quality.

Unusual Paint & Colors

- Unusual paint items have been changed into Gem Packs that will grant a gem of the same color of the old paint item when used.

- All couriers that were painted in the past will now have color gems already installed of the appropriate color.

- All legacy courier colors (very old drop colors, bugged colors, etc) have been preserved as color gems. If you want, you can smash the courier to recover the legacy color gem and use it on some other courier or effect combination.

- All unusual paint items on the Steam Community Market have been delisted. You can relist the Color Gem Packs.

- All non-legacy colors (colors that drop normally from Treasure Chests) now have specific names (i.e.: "Verdant Green"). Legacy colors will have the name "Legacy (R G B)". (Most Legacy Colors are completely unique, but there are a few where more than one of that color exist.)

- New colors will appear on Treasure Chest unusuals from time to time moving forward. While we will avoid selecting legacy colors we cannot completely guarantee that new colors will not sometimes be similar. The 800 or so unique legacy colors in existence cover a large amount of color space.

- Filters can now be created for the armory. These filters are stored in the Steam Cloud so that every machine you use will know your armory filter settings

- An armory page now contains 60 items instead of 64. Armory sizes have been increased upwards slightly to account for this adjustment

- Many items have been removed from the store. These can now be sold and bought on the Steam Community Market! Workshop contributors will receive a share of each resale of their items. The items that have been removed are not immortal: they may return to the store in future sales or events, or they may appear in the drop list from time to time

- The item drop list has been greatly pared down and will now change over time. As new items are introduced old items will be removed (and will be accessible on the Steam Community Market). This should help keep the item drop list interesting over time

- Entropic Shield and Entropic Axe are now a part of the Entropic set

Technical

- Fixed an issue where players could end up in a continuous loop of "received uncompressed update from server"

- Added UI texture streaming to reduce memory usage

- Fixed a startup crash with corrupt customization files

- Fixed a case where the game would return with a black screen after alt-tab

Visual

- Updated Phantom Assassin's head

- New Centaur Conquerer War Stomp

- New Satyr Tormentor blast

- Minor tweaks to Wildwing Ripper Tornado

- New Satyr Banisher projectile

- Fixed visuals on Satyr Banisher purge

- Improved Vhoul's spear throw effect

- Fixed LOD1 on Ol' Chopper Pudge hook

- updated cloth settings and skinning Crystal Maiden, Invoker, Lina, and Rubick

- Fixed several bugs with portrait particles relating to death and dormancy for visibility in the portrait and kill cam

- Fixed Io death effects

- Moved all of Chaos Knight's particles onto individual items, such as the mount, helmet, and others, as well as support for local attachments, so that new items can support different positions based on new mounts of helms

- Revamped Doom's weapon effect to better support community items

- Fixed a bug where models that failed to combine would get double effects in the preview panel

- Fixed Spirit Breakers missing effects

- Moved Spirit Breaker's effects into individual items to better support community items

- Fixed Spirit Breaker's knockback distance being too low

Audio

- Add sound to Radiance debuff (only audible to target player)

- Fix last hit sound for Alchemist and Lone Druid ults

Hero Builds

- Added a language filter to the in-game UI when selecting a hero build. Build authors will need to republish hero builds and choose a language when publishing in order for builds to be filterable by language

- Fixed slow hero build loading times for users with a large number of subscribed or previously used hero builds

Local Play

- Local servers allows players on the same physical network to connect to a locally hosted game

- By selecting "Create Local Lobby", the leader of the lobby will become the host for a match by running a local server

- Players can see Local lobbies available on their physical network by going to "FIND A LOBBY" and selecting the "LOCAL LOBBIES" tab

- Local Lobbies follow the same rules as Private Lobbies.

- Upon completion of the Local game, the replay will be stored on the lobby leader's computer in replays/<match-id>.dem

Captains Draft

- This game mode randomly selects 8 str, 8 agi, and 8 int heroes that both teams can choose from

- Each team's captain bans 2 heroes (1/1/1/1) out of that list

- Each team's captain selects 5 heroes (1/2/2/2/2/1) out of the remaining list

- There is a 150 second total time pool for each team to complete all of their bans and selections

Workshop

- Added Abaddon to the Workshop submission tools and website requirements

Mac/Linux

- [Mac] Fixed problems with sounds cutting out or not playing for the first few minutes of a game

- [Mac] Made the Dock icon bounce when a game is ready

- [Mac] Play a ready sound when game is not focused and matchmaking has found a game

- Make "Sound while alt-tab" setting work

- Added a fix for missing lip sync in hero portraits

- Fix corrupted GUI after changing video settings

- Hero Library videos now play on Linux
