General

When logging into Diablo III, the “Cancel” button which appears in the login checkbox will now be grayed out for 30 seconds after a Battle.net account name and password are entered. This is to reduce server load during the login process.

Auction House

Damaged items can now be sold on the auction house
Once sold, damaged items will be repaired automatically when moved from the purchasing player’s Completed tab to their stash
Please note that unsold damage items will not be automatically repaired when returned to the seller’s stash
Description messages for several auction house-related errors have been added

Mac

Several Mac performance improvements have been made

Bug Fixes

General

It is no longer possible to skip entire Acts in a multiplayer game

Classes

Barbarian

Active Skills
Fixed a bug that was allowing certain barbarian skills to continuously trigger each other’s critical strikes, to the point of causing the player to crash. To address this crash, the following skill and skill rune combinations can no longer be triggered by each other’s critical strikes:

    • Battle Rage (Skill Rune – Bloodshed)
    • Cleave (Skill Rune – Rupture and Skill Rune – Scattering Blast)
    • Hammer of the Ancients (Skill Rune – Thunder Strike)
    • Wrath of the Berserker (Skill Rune – Slaughter)

Followers

Monsters who are charmed by the Enchantress’s skill “Mass Confusion” can no longer kill event NPCs

Minor bug fixing with some good news – damaged items can now be sold on the auction house. In other auction house news commodity sales are back on in the US and EU! Prices are in a state of perpetual flux but falling rapidly – remember to stock up when they go below vendor price!
