• Unleashed Potential now gives your demon attack power from your Fire and Shadow spell damage combined

I hope the pet’s spell power bonus is also % from fire+shadow?

This is happening due to an outdated client. Try updating in launcher or pulling the new Patch-5 from the torrent

Hi, can you confirm for us developer/no-launcher players that we can just replace "patch-5.mpq" in client\Data if we are on previous 2026-10-10 client?

Kind regards

• The rooftops next to the Lionheart Armory in the Trade District can now be reached from the alley
• Added Gowlfang and Bogpaw Truthsay to The Green Belt in the Wetlands

But, Gowlfang is a boss...right? why are them in the Green Belt?

What are you planning? they are quest givers?

This was due to some confusion with a dev restoring old 1.17 data from an old outdated bug. It has been removed

Yes if you have a client downloaded on 10-10 it should only need the Patch-5 to be replaced

I am confirming with the dev that made the changes, but from what I can tell its only AP. We will revisit this if SP is not included

Please note that the talent does add SP to all pets, but not 45% of Fire+Shadow. And UP was adding SP until the recent changes.

I just checked and found that after the Spell Power update, the pet at 3/3 “UP” does not receive 45% of my fire+shadow SP. The imp pet cannot attack physically at all, so the AP bonus is useless for it. Imp has a 50% bonus from the UP talent,since now it only receives half of the 45%*(fire+shadow). Other pets can attack and have skills with a CD of 5–10 seconds and an SP mod of ~42%.

With the current version of the talent, the imp is useless. For other pets, this isn’t as critical, but it’s still a flaw...
