Diablo II/Changelog/Patch 1.05

-- - Patch 1.05 --

Major bugs

- Fixed copy-protection for various CD, DVD, and CD-R drives. - Barbarians wielding two potions are no longer prevented from entering games. - Socketed items were mistakenly and irreversibly de-randomized in 1.04. Now their gem effect values are taken from the upper end of their original (pre-1.04) random ranges. - Fixed all spell ranges. They were mistakenly reduced in v1.04. - Fixed a bug that prevented deleting some Characters. - Fixed numerous foreign language display problems.

Minor bugs

- Fixed a bug in the trade screen when the Horadric Cube was open. - Duplicate ladder entries should no longer occur. - The Ladders scroll properly now when there are less than 999 entries. - Realm characters should no longer appear as robed. - Fixed a bug allowing users to appear in a channel twice. - If the user cannot connect to a default realm, a "Realm down" message is displayed. - Fixed the "packet sniffing" exploit used when gambling. - High-durability items no longer lose durability when you join a  game after exiting or dying. - The Conversion skill no longer causes a monster counting error in the Den of Evil.

Improvements

- A prompt now appears informing the user to delete characters when they have greater than eight characters in a Realm. - Player profiles now have a link to their ladder records, if they are in the top 999. - A "connecting to realm" message was added.

Balance Changes

- The Paladin's Concentration skill now enhances the damage of Blessed Hammer just as it did in 1.03. The damage displayed on the Character screen is correct, too. - The Amazon's Strafe skill now correctly enhances base bow damage rather than total bow damage. - The Amazon's Guided Arrow skill now enhances base bow damage rather than total bow damage.
