Fixed bugs:

Multiplayer:

• Fixed a crash on the loading screen.

General:

• Certain spells will now stop working when their caster dies, as they should.
• The blue glowing flowers on the Gorgon Pass which give you Mana Regeneration will properly show an icon for their effect.
• Fixed another issue with item comparison.
• The Assistant quest no longer gets stuck if you completed it before accepting.
• The area effects work properly.
• Monsters affected by the control spell give xp upon dying.
• The Pale Gentleman disappears after you failed the Dark Ritual quest. The glowing effects are also removed.
• The effects no longer shake the screen if their cause is not on the screen.
• Fixed the DPS calculation of Flowing Combo.
• The DPS calculation of the Shoot skill with Quickdraw takes the attack rate bonus into account.
• Teleporting sometimes played two effects. This has been fixed.
• Fixed a potential issue with the first cutscene in the Dreadworks where the Dreadknechts would start to fire on Van Helsing before the cutscene could start.
• Fixed an issue where holding down the Shift key could cause certain keys to not be recognized if you remapped them.
• Fixed some issues with the Firewall spell being cast through obstacles.
• Minimizing the game (eg. Alt-Tab) will no longer cause sound effects to get stuck. The music will be faded out and then faded back in when you return to the game.

New features:

• The old classes have expertise bonuses for 60 and 70 points spent on a skill tree.
• HP bars of your allies are green.
• Global cooldown is introduced into the game. Attack spells have a common cooldown so you can't use different spells in quick succession. The base value of this cooldown is 0.5 seconds.
• Owning a class-related DLC will now grant you an additional page in your storage per DLC owned. (Please note that if you play offline, the game won't be able to authenticate your DLCs via Steam and you won't have access to those additional storage pages, nor your DLC characters.)
