Hi,

the latest hotfix is live! The focus was on early spell balance, lockpicking, and item durability.

* lifedrain/soul surge effect increased
* arcane dart cost lowered, damage increased
* lesser lightning damage and focus cost adjusted
* flaming hand damage and focus cost adjusted
* requirements of lockpicking adjusted in the heartlands & serpent's bastion
* lock complexity is now implied by the lockpicking failure message
* impact of dexterity on lockpicking increased
* blacksmithing sound effect adjusted for volume
* blacksmithing/repair efficiency increased
* equipment durability damage decreased
* kicking won't hurt your toes anymore

Casters should have a slightly easier time now.
More fixes and adjustments to come!

Best wishes,
Michael
