Someone said 'release early, release often' and I am taking them
seriously.

Changes in 1.04 (for which see http://www.guildgame.com/quickband.htm)

L11 and L12 are less tough than previously
Vaults, pits and other unusual rooms are uncommon on DL11 and DL12
The L11 quest unique has more HP and does more damage
Several good amulets are more common
Several types of ego item are more common
!Speed are more common
Prices for selling stuff in stores are not so bad as they were if your
Chr is very low (but still bad)
Nexus no longer swaps your stats, but does something else instead
Bugfix: stat and augmentation potions can never appear, not even very
rarely

Savefile compatibility is broken since v1.02 ish - if you want to
upgrade to 1.04 from 1.01 or .02, better start a new game.

Cheers
A.

That is good. My level-31 Dwarven Warrior just met that unique (1.0.3)
Wielding a Heavy Crossbow of Power (x4) (+12,+27), he needed only six
Bolts of Slay Evil (1d5) (+3,+5).

I guess +27 to-dam from a shooter is not too common.

These last two make Ugly Warriors much more playable.

BTW, there is a typo: the chardumps claim version is 0.1.0.
