* Constitution damage from use of Hellfire won't be dispellable anymore
* Hindering and Binding Blasts will apply Hellfire Blast damage when active
* Hellfire Shield won't halve damage with failed saving throw anymore, and do full damage with successful one
* Hellfire Shield will respect Evasion
* Hellfire Shield won't show fire impact visuals, if no damage is inflicted
* Several issues with Warlock essences, which happen when they share same shape: Applying new essence won't remove old one of different type, if both are using same shape essences with secondary damage (like Brimstone) will work, if target is already affected by some other essence that shares same shape

Use Poison - See Poison Bellow
Oaken Resilience, Rage, and Blinding Speed are now instant feats.

Poison
First the old rules:
Applying poison was a one round action.
The poison lasted for 3 rounds or 1 hit whichever came first.
There was a 5% chance you poisoned yourself unless you had the "apply poison feat". (Yes the description said it was a dex check, the description was wrong).

Now the new rules:
Applying poison is a one round action.
The poison lasts for 4 rounds or 1 hit whichever comes first.
You must make a dex check against the DC of the poison to not poison yourself.

If you have the Use Poison feat:
Applying poison is a one round action.
The poison lasts for 12 rounds or 3 hits whichever comes first.
No dex check needed.

Tanarukks have been added as an UnderDark playable Race.
They can be found under the PLANETOUCHED races.



Tanarukks are orcs with some degree of evil outsider blood, in most cases but not restricted to that of a Tanar'ri. They appear as short, stocky orcs with bristly hair and horns or ridges along the sides of their heads. Also, tanarukks have a distinctive smell of brimstone about them along with a limited ability to manipulate fire.
The Tanarukka originated as orc-demon crossbreeds in the region around Hellgate Keep. However, years of dwelling on Faerûn has led to their being regarded as a separate species, rather than simply as tieflings. They're nasty, brutish and not terribly blessed with intelligence; they are, however, extremely dangerous fighters. They can often be found acting as muscle for cambions and other fiendish creatures.
The Tanarukks of Sshamath were purposefully brought to the city to serve as brutal shocktroops for the slave armies of the Conclave. Most bear the mark of the Conclave prominently on their face and right hand indicating their status as servitors, tasked with keeping the rest of the slave population in check and ensuring their compliance.
In Sshamath society Tanarukks are below the other resident races of Duergar and Svirfneblin in rank, treated as useful tools of their masters. Most reside in the slave pens of the Conclave, meting out terrible violence on the slave population of orcs, goblins and kobolds. Some have recently been seen in the Darkspires, living amongst the other non-illythiri in a pack organization. It is rumored this group, led by a particularly intelligent and magic-capable Tanarukk has negotiated a special arrangement with the Conclave allowing them more autonomy in return for their service as fearless, secret shocktroops.

Racial Traits:

- Ability Adjustments: +2 Strength, +2 Dexterity, -1 Intelligence, -2 Wisdom, -2 Charisma.

- Darkvision: Tanarukks can see in the dark up to 60 feet.

- Fire Resistance: Fire resistance 5.

- Natural Armor: Natural armor +1.

- Weapon Proficiency: Tanarukks are naturally proficient with all simple and martial weapons.

- Reach to the Blaze: Once per day, a tanarukk can call upon his demonic nature and radiate flames which damage all those within 5 feet, doing 2d4 points of fire damage per round (Reflex save for half damage). This effect lasts for 5 rounds.

- Favored class: Fighter. A multiclass tanarukk's Fighter class does not count when determining whether he takes an experience point penalty for multiclassing.

- Level Adjustment +1: Tanarukks are more powerful and gain levels more slowly than other races. It will take more experience for a tanarukk to reach level 2 than it would for normal races, for example.

Blackguards and Assassins now get expanded spell options.
This was taken from Kaedrins PRC (THANKS Kaedrin!).

If you have a blackguard or Assassin, your feat will be swapped when you login to give you access to the new spells.

The new feats will be located in your character sheet under the feats tab.
You will have to drag them out to your hot bar to use them.

Also of note, temporary ability increases will not increase the number of spells you can cast (for example wearing a ring that provides +4 INT).
The number of spells you get is granted using your base ability modifier.
So for example if your an Assassin and your raw base Intelligence is 18, your modifier is +4.
That is what will be used for bonus spells.
Adding a ring that grants +4 INT making your total INT = 22, will not make your modifier +6 for bonus spells.


ASSASSIN
Level 1 Assassin Spells:
Ghost Visage, Sleep, True Strike.

Level 2 Assassin Spells:
Cat's Grace, Darkness, Fox's Cunning.

Level 3 Assassin Spells:
Invisibility, Deep Slumber, False Life.

Level 4 Assissin Spells:
Improved Invisibility, Freedom of Movement, Poison, and clairaudience/Clairvoyance.

ASSASSIN SPELLS PER DAY








BLACKGUARD
Level 1 BlackGuard Spells:
Bull's Strength, Magic Weapon, Doom, and Cure Light Wounds.
