Small change to the FX associated with the combat starting effect of the spider armor. It may have been causing hangups in exceptionally large fights.

Fixed a crash that would occur when checking trade goods at the merchant in the basement. This fix will only take effect for saves that haven't been to the basement yet, so if you already have visited prior to this update, avoid checking the trade goods (bullion, food, etc.) tab in the basement.

Fixed a strange interaction between the Blade's Flash Cut and the Sleepless Ring.

Corrected an issue where fame between 1001 and 1999 wouldn't show the dialog option when unlocking the shops for the first time.

The Collector Rifle's debuffs are now part of a weaponBuff action, which should help them function appropriately when used with mixed normal attacks or abilities that make weapon attacks.

The Mace of Sundering's reign of terror is now over, and it should only annihilate undead. For a higher chance of annihilation, invest in Life and Hammer skills.

Fixed the Magician's Robe MagAtk boost not working. Added some clarity to the Collector Rifle debuff.

Did some redecorating around the anvil in the shop to make it usable. Carpets prevent anvils from functioning, apparently. If you've already visited the zone, this change won't take effect for your current save. If you want to use the anvil anyway, go into build mode (shift ~, b, enter), and remove the carpet yourself. Then press esc and return to playing as normal.

Took steps to correct some scythe attack secondary effects not playing nicely with Counter Frenzy.

Provided a dialog option with Longfinger to get a hint about the secret merchant.

Added a basement zone, accessible through Longfinger, with more items for sale.
