Crate Entertainment keeps tinkering with Grim Dawn’s balance even though the action-RPG is currently in maintenance mode. As a result, we get this sizable new patch that addresses a bunch of assorted issues and adjusts the numbers for a lot of skills and items.

The link above has the complete patch notes, and here are just the fixed issues:

We are please to have our latest bug fix and balancing update in your hands. With V1.1.9.6, we have revisited ranged weapons and made them a much more viable endgame choice in general, compared to the limited selection from before. Likewise, we reviewed many niche playstyles and improved the availability of skill points bonuses for them. And that’s just the beginning!

This update is now live on Steam and coming posthaste to GOG and Xbox.
