Changelog

GENERAL

• Experience Loss for death to PvE has been removed

• Creatures will no longer be inhibited by simple objects and will be able to strike back against players who attempt to him them using this "tactic".
• Health Recovery Powers no longer stack (this does not include Health Recovery bonuses from items, just castable Powers); this will be modified in an upcoming hotfix so that Gladiator Power "Treat Wounds" will stack with personal Health Recovery Powers such as Herb Lore and Amazon's Endurance, but not with Group versions such as Gentle Melody or Aid to the Faithful
