Hey guys, I have been searching online for a layout of the Diamond Casino vault with mapped loot and terminals so I could plan a route for my crew to take once in the vault but couldn’t find anything. If anyone can find anything, could you please link it to me? Thanks!
with gold as a target, can anyone tell me all the vault layouts? that includes which doors are open and closed and the position of the tables. is it random? i dont think it is and dont think there are many layouts

So some people on this sub seem to think you need to do all the optional preps when doing the casino heist, but this is actually a HUGE waste of time when trying to grind. You would make much more money for your time if you just skipped these preps, ran the heist, and then started a new one. TheProfessional on youtube explains it in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1QcKrudZoc For aggressive approach, you only need duggan shipments and boring machine. Don't bother with patrol routes, you don't need to sneak around anyone. If guards are within a certain range they will show on your map even without patrol routes. Keycards only if you can't hack, or if you think you might fail while exiting casino, but theres only 1 door that uses it so if you're experienced you don't need them. EDIT: you don't need boring machine to access sewers, it is always available. Not sure why rockstar made that mission. For Big Con, as long as you have the 54 playing cards, YOU DON'T NEED ANY OPTIONAL PREPS. I can't believe there are people here that think you need duggan shipments for big con, when you literally don't shoot anybody while inside the casino. Whats the point of taking their armor and weapons if you don't shoot them, or get shot by them? You shouldn't be getting detected on gruppe sechs, and if you're not doing gruppe sechs then you're not being time efficient anyway.. You don't need patrol routes because when escaping there are only 2 guards that you need to take out, then 1 to avoid, and they are always in the same hallways. Also only 1 door to hack while escaping, don't need keycard. SnS is the method that benefits the most from optionals. Keycards are actually useful because there are multiple doors, and duggan shipments can be handy as well so you can take out guards from afar with your gun. Patrol routes are good if you don't know the guards' usual spots, same with security intel for cameras, but they're not necessary once you learn where they are. Also don't do power drills, you shouldn't have that much time if you choose the minimal amount of people and the appropriate hacker. For example, for art you should always run as a group of 2, with a cheap hacker like Yohan (5%). You have enough time to clear the vault, and save money since the hacker takes a smaller cut. For gold, you can run with 2 people if you hack fast/get lucky with the layout, but if running with 3 you can use a cheap hacker as well. If you get cash on scope out, just call lester and cancel heist. It takes the longest to loot and is worth the least. The extra profit you get from art/gold is worth paying startup cost multiple times over. This week also has diamonds. You need 3 people to clear the vault, and paige gives more than enough time. I haven't tested it with cheaper hackers but it might work.

So I managed to duplicate gold ONE TIME in the casino heist and I haven't been able to replicate it, looking for some help. I apologize, I didn't clip it, but here are the steps: Idk if this has anything to do with it, but my SecuroServ color was orange and one of the guys' names was blue. The approach was SnS, when we spawned into the heist the car supplied by the driver was not there, so we had to steal a NPC vehicle. Ran through the heist like normal through the ground floor and basement. Used the pause menu glitch for the vault lasers. Vault layout was worst (A & B in middle, everything else was locked). One guy went through the door to the left and started hacking into C. Other guy kinda ran around the middle. I looted A, but left one bar. I then headed through the door to the left, guy in the middle waited about 5 seconds then entered the loot animation on the cart I left one bar on. BOOM, the gold duplicated. Not only did it duplicate, but when he looted down to one bar, he exited animation then re-entered and it duplicated AGAIN. From here, all the carts were glitched. I looted B down to one bar, exited, and then when I went back into animation it refilled. I did not clip because I ended the heist and tried to do it again. I have tried for the past 4 hours with no luck. PSA: This was on PS4, so no chance of modding. Plus, it was a kid who hopped on A (at my request, trying out ways to duplicate gold), and he couldn't even hack, let alone mod. Anyone out there who might be able to re-create this? No, I'm not just posting this for attention I do legit glitches, and I don't need the attention. Just looking for help from a more experienced glitcher. EDIT: The kid who hopped on A after I looted it was the player whose name was blue.

Gold Glitch Hacking Decision Tree 3.0 + Comprehensive Vault Guide for Gold & Artwork
Edit: Disclaimer that you should know how the gold glitch works before referring to my post. For a basic tutorial on the gold glitch check this guide out from TrueInfinite. My guide is meant to be the Step #2 to simplify dividing up carts/hacking doors. ----------------------------------- Since trying to perfect my Casino Heist Game where I published the initial decision tree, I decided to test the hell out of the guide. I spent the past 3 weeks joining countless of Casino Heists, recording my time in the vault, and reviewed footage to analyze how things went. What did I learn? Most of the decision tree was valid. Some vaults have multiple options which can lead to similar or even equal results with my guide. One mistake was pointed out by a friend of mine who helped me catch that Vault Layout #2 can follow the same door hack as #4/#6 to simplify the tree with equal take amount. I took these experiences, went back and made some updates to the tree. I threw in a bunch of extra content which I found useful to optimize vault take amounts. Without further ado, here's the new and updated GTA Vault Optimization Guide (Full Album Link).Edit:Zip Link
Non-hacker duplicates carts A, B, C, H, while hacker duplicates cart G. Cart F isn't necessary in general as there are already 5 carts including G. Every gold bar unlocked is taken
This is normal difficulty, so the grab isn't as high, but the total amount corresponds to 246 gold bars, which in hard mode would translate to 3.974 million. Non-hacker partner left 1 gold bar left.
All 5 carts (A, B, C, E, F) are duplicated. The hacker duplicates E on his own and is pretty fast at hacking and manages to prep D before the timer hits 2:30. The decision tree recommends to hack the door to get H to keep the strategy consistent for layouts 2, 4, 6.
All 5 carts (A, B, C, E, F) are duplicated. Second hacker manages to hack H (even with a mistake!) to grab H in the end for an extra 3 bars to put the team over the $3.665 million cap.
Duplicating of 5 carts (A, B, D, E, G). In this case the hacker is a little behind the non-hacker so the hacker preps only 1 cart (E) whereas the non-hacker preps the other 4 (A, B, D, G). The team grabs all 5 duplicated carts + 1 unduplicated cart (F).
This is the 2 hacker approach to get 4 carts fully duplicated + D cart. In this case the hacker accidentally grabs 2 bars while duplicating H which slows down the grab start a little bit, but nevertheless is able to grab everything unlocked.
Normal Mode. Hacker hits door #3 immediately, informs non-hacker to help hit Door #1 to unlock D. Carts A, B, D, G, H are duplicated.
Original Background/Motivation
Many people stress the need to memorize, which is needed ultimately, but initially for people just starting out, it's not clear what specific features to look for. If I'm told to match my current vault layout with one of the 6 Gold layouts, it might take me 15-30 seconds to do so, especially if I go in numerical order and my vault is actually the #6 one.
To help with memorization it's important to look for key features that lets you quickly identify the correct vault layout.
I would often go into vaults thinking I knew what to do and then figure out I hacked the wrong door because I did not identify the vault layout properly.
I created the decision tree initially to help me hack the right door to open up the right # of gold carts. In the gold glitch you want to duplicate as many and as fast as you can and then save the second half of the vault time to grab carts as fast as you can. It's very important that you unlock enough carts if your goal is to hit the maximum $3.6 million
Similarly, artwork is in the same boat. Generally you have enough time, but if you hit the wrong vault doors, you could be left with 1 minute left trying to hack 2 sets of doors with one behind the other. I wanted a guide to help me avoid any situations where I leave artwork behind because of poor vault choice.
Closing Huge shoutout to WarWithVarun-Varun, TrueInfinite, u/Flash_ZA for their vault layout guides/images as an inspiration. Again, feedback, and commentary would be appreciated. There's a lot more content this time, so it's very easy for me to make mistakes. Feel free to point them out so I can correct them. Edit: Bonus musings:
For replay glitch I had been pulling plug right at the chopper hitting the checkpoint sound. Host never gets money, but it's a reliable way to make sure
Late last week someone told me that I should add a delay--wait until the cutscene starts rolling and pull the plug ASAP. I've tried this and in 4/4 times I got my money, but 1 / 4 times I had my heist reset. Looks like as many have said the timing to ensure you get money but not the heist reset is extremely tough.
Many recommend looking for transaction pending or orange circle, but that's inconsistent. The text isn't always there and it's a tiny corner of your screen to look at. You can't miss when your screen flashes to the cutscene.
basically me + my friend plan on grinding out casino this week however i just got gold on my casino and dont have the heart to cancel it considering i dont get it that often. now my question is after we do this one and i start scoping vault contents again do i keep rerolling until i get diamonds or do i stop at gold/art? On gold we get everything and can escape sneakily as long as the vault layout isnt doodoo and on art we get everything sneakily everytime. so with that in mind do i keep rerolling for diamonds considering their rarity?
Hi. I'm back. I originally didn't think I would be able to host this contest at all! I've been busy this summer and I was prepared to go back to college in the middle of August. Unfortunately, due to Mrs. Cabróna V. Irus, I won't actually be moving back in until August 27... which left me with plenty of free time to take back the reins and drive this contest home. The one and only WhimsicalCalamari will continue to control of all of the back end stuff: writing up the Google Forms and keeping track of the championship points and all that. He's going above and beyond on that stuff and is using more attention to detail than I ever did for this contest. While WhimsicalCalamari makes the show run smoothly on the back end, I'll be handling the front end of the contest for the final 7 rounds. Just like the olden days, I'll be posting all the threads, writing up "round reports," yelling at people who break the rules, and unfunnily describing the bizarre locations I've chosen for this year's contest. Now that all the housekeeping is out of the way... let's get into the results from the last round!
Results from Round 3 in Daejeon
Round 3 brought the Street Circuit Contest to South Korea for the second time. This time, the designers were tasked with crafting a street circuit in Daejeon: South Korea's fifth largest city. This round was actually supposed to be in Daegu rather than Daejeon, but just like Ollie Kendal, I confused my Korean city names before I sent in the city list. Anyway... the results! We've got a third new winner in three rounds and for the first time, one designer has swept all three categories! RobertGine's Ocheon-Dong Street Circuit won both the Most Realistic and Best Presentation categories and tied for the win in Best Layout. This all added up to a MOOSIVE 51-point haul: the largest of the season. In second is LunaticFTW, who bagged 24 points with their Yurim Park circuit and scored their first podium of the season. Finishing off the podium is solkattu, who CRUELLY ROBBED RobertGine of a completely clean sweep by tying the Best Layout category. solkattu's haul of 23 points for the Formula 1 Samsung Korean GP has earned them their second podium in a row. Rounding out the top 5 are MMuster07's Hakha-Dong Highway Circuit with 21 points, and two-time Street Circuit Contest champion lui5mb's Yongun-dong Circuit with 19 points. In the championship, things are getting very very spicy. Maybe even spicier than the tteokbokki from a Daejeon street market... RobertGine's 51-point haul from Daejeon has vaulted the designer from 4th to 1st in the space of one round. 94 points is a lot, but the rest of the contenders are in hot pursuit. lui5mb knows what it takes to win a Street Circuit Contest championship, and a solid 5th place in Daejeon has kept those championship hopes alive. RobertGine may have overtaken lui5mb in the championship, but a margin of only 7 points is definitely surmountable. Rounding out the top 3 in the championship is the winner of the first round, cake-pie. cake-pie was in the lead of the championship after Belfast, but a subpar Daejeon round (tied for 7th) has dropped them to 3rd... only 1 point behind lui5mb, though. The full results and standings will be available on the Wiki shortly: Full results from round 3 in Daejeon Championship standings after round 3 in Daejeon
Rules recap
The rules are exactly the same as they were in the first 3 rounds when WhimsicalCalamari was running it. For those who didn't catch Round 1, or who just want a reminder of your limitations in the SCC, here's the contest-wide rules: Track rules
The track must be a circuit of some kind, for a motorsport of some kind.
The majority of the circuit has to be built from existing roads. Purpose-built sections may be built in parking lots/parks/etc, but the track must be mostly a street circuit.
Stay within the city/territorial limits of the location assigned.
Realism isn't a concern on my end. Want to take over an airport runway, tear through residential zoning, or drop a pit lane into the middle of a major freeway? Do it. However, realism is also a factor of your score (so don't get too reckless!).
Tracks cannot be built over existing buildings.
Submission guidelines:
Your entry must be a design that you haven't submitted before. No taking work that you posted at some other point and saying it's your entry, this has to be something new.
Your entry must be posted as a comment in the Contest post. (If you want to refine your track after the fact and post it to the subreddit, that's fair game - just wait for the round in question to end before you do.)
You must include an image of your track. Links to Google Earth or similar tools will not be counted.
Unlike recent competitions, the fast turnaround time means that there is no grace period. If your track isn't in by the time voting starts, it's out. (But please submit it to the sub anyway because it's always nice for work to be seen!)
The Round 4 Reveal
We've gone from the United States to Northern Ireland to South Korea over the course of the contest so far and we're about to do even more traveling... even though the traveling is back to the United States. Round 4 of the 10K Street Circuit Contest takes us to yet another shining metropolis: Meridian, Mississippi. The state of Mississippi is ranked 50th in health care, 46th in education, 48th in economy, 45th in infrastructure, 44th in opportunity, and 44th in fiscal stability. I got an email from Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves that reads as follows:
Dear users of /RaceTrackDesigns and street circuit enthusiasts, During my time as Governor of the great state of Mississippi, my staff and I have tried very hard to drive tourism into some of our great cities, but for some reason, all of our efforts have been futile. The casinos of Biloxi have not been attracting the elderly Atlantic City crowd, nobody knows how to spell Southaven, and the Stenhouses got really mad when we sent Ricky's fans to their family home in Olive Branch. We have tried basically nothing and we're all out of ideas. Nothing would make us happier than a bunch of amateur pseudo-artists designing us an FIA-grade street circuit for free in one of our great cities. With regards, Governor Tate "The Power of Prayer Will Solve the COVID-19 Pandemic" Reeves
Now Governor Reeves didn't actually give us a specific city to design a street circuit in, so if I was being nice I could give you the entire state of Mississippi as a blank canvas... but NAH. You'll get some wide open rounds later in the season, but for now, you are quarantined in the completely insignificant city of Meridian. As usual, you have the entire city to work with. The rules regarding city limits are being relaxed a little for this round, though. As long as a part of your track is within the city limits, it will be allowed. You're designing a street circuit in Meridian, Mississippi. You have until 11:59 PM EST on Thursday. ALLEZ DESÍGN!
Looking for a long term “friend” to do the casino heist back to back with. You must have the same heist with at least Paige as the Hacker. Avi is okay too. All I ask is you have a mic to make communication easy and you have to have good experience with all layouts for the vault. I can hack but it would be good if you could hack too (5 second hacker). Drop your PSN’s and rank :)

Gambling
As this is a Casino-centric update, there's plenty of ways to gamble away your hard-grinded money. The gambling in this game centers around a new form of currency, called Chips. These chips are pretty much like real-world gambling chips, with a one-to-one dollar value, except you keep your chips when you leave the casino. Chips are an actual currency in GTA Online, as they can be used to purchase exclusive items from a shop inside the casino, along with being used to bet with when playing the Gambling Games, listed below
Slot Machines: There's plenty of options to choose from, but they all perform the same way. Spend some chips, and let the RNG decide whether or not you earn anything from it.
Blackjack: Casino style blackjack with up to four simultaneous players, all of which play against the dealer. Anyone who beats the dealer individually wins, anyone who the dealer beats individually loses, and if the dealer gets Blackjack (an Ace and 10/face-card), everyone immediately loses. Assuming your initial hand isn't a Blackjack, you have the option of doubling-down, which doubles your initial bet with the caveat of only being able to hit once.
Poker: Three-card poker. You make your bets, check your hand, and similar to Blackjack, each player wins if their hand is better than the dealer's, and the dealer beats whoever has a worse hand than him. While there is no option to double-down, how much you win does depend on how good of a hand you have. The better your hand, the more you win. Also, while you can fold your hand, you lose your initial bet anyway.
Horse Racing: Pretty much standard horse racing bettering. You choose a horse, you put your money down, and if you bet correctly, you get double the amount you bet in return. Otherwise, you just lose the amount you bet.
To gain more chips, there is a counter inside the casino where you can buy them, however you are limited in how many you can buy per day (real-world 24 hours). As standard, you can buy a maximum of 20,000 chips per day, but if you own a penthouse of any tier, you can buy up to 50,000 chips per day. Chips can also be traded in for money, but there does not appear to be a limit on this. No matter how many chips you win from gambling, it appears that you can trade them all in at once for the equivalent dollar value. Lastly, there is the Wheel. It's a roulette wheel that you can only spin once per day, which costs $500 per spin. There are twenty reward slots, and since some rewards are in multiple slots, they have greater chances of being selected. The biggest note about this wheel however is that there is one slot in which you can win a free car! What makes this so significant is that since the car takes a 1/20 slot on the wheel, that means you still have a 5% chance of winning a free high-value vehicle! Compared to most online games, that's pretty much the most generous RNG you can get.

FAQ
Are there any differences between the penthouses For once, yes! Well, technically... they're the same basic property layout, but each option gives you different addon options.
The Cash Pad: The basic Penthouse with no property addons available . You cannot purchase a garage, extra bedroom, lounge, etc. with the Cash Pad. You can, however, purchase penthouse customizations (colour and wall patterns).
The Party Penthouse: Gives you certain of the addon options: the main Penthouse, the Extra Bedroom, the Lounge Area, the Spa, and the Bar and Party Hub. You are locked to these options, no more, no less.
The High Roller: Gives you all of the property addons as standard, and the most expensive penthouse customization options... this means that you cannot choose your own colour and wall patterns with this version.
The "Design Your Own": ...What should be the standard option. It gives you the basic penthouse and allows you to choose which addons and customizations you want, with an extra cost for each one, of course. Just get this one. You can also renovate this option later, allowing you to purchase more addons and change your customizations later.
What do the Penthouse Addons do?
Lounge Area: Allows you to purchase the other Penthouse Addons (except for the Extra Bedroom and Garage, which are the only items addons that can be purchased without a Lounge).
Media Room: You know the cinemas around Los Santos? The ones that play a few 5 minute animated films on repeat? That, but in a Penthouse.
Spa: Gives you access to a hot tub and a Personal Stylist. The Stylist's services are the same as the ones spread around Los Santos (hair, contacts, and make up), but they're all free.
Bar and Party Hub: Allows you to consume drinks that instantly intoxicate your character, along with access to special arcade games that aren't available anywhere else in the game.
Private Dealer: Allows you to play gambling games in your penthouse.
Office: Adds a standard computer, a Gun Locker, and a money vault (don't get excited, it's just aesthetic).
Extra Bedroom: Bedrooms in owned properties in GTA Online are used as spawn points, so why can you pay to have an extra one? Because you can now allow a friend of yours to claim it! The Extra Bedroom allows a friend of yours to use your penthouse as a spawn apparently, though the exact implementation of this is not completely clear.
Garage: Access to the Penthouse's garage bay.
How do I get the armored car?
To recieve the Enus Paragon R (Armoured), you have to complete the Diamond Casino's mission series, which you must own a penthouse to access. Once of the missions are complete, you'll be given the vehicle for free! But remember, it's uninsured and you only get it once, so immediately go into passive mode and take it to the nearest Los Santos Customs to insure it, or else you could lose the vehicle permanently.
Passive Mode
Good news, passive mode has been fixed!
Passive Mode can now no longer be active when using a weaponized vehicle
A Passive Mode cooldown of 2 minutes is now in place for players who have just killed another player
Players now must wait 5 minutes before they can activate Passive Mode again after disabling it
Players now must wait 30 seconds before they can disable Passive Mode after activating it
These changes make is so that grievers can no longer abuse passive mode, or at least no where near as easily. If you start to get the upper-hand on a griefer and destroy whatever death-machine they're using to troll you, or if you confront them in a death-machine of your own, they can't abuse Passive Mode to try to get the upper-hand on you!

Bugs and Glitches
Apparently on PS4 and Xbox One, you must have full size of GTA V available to download the update, so if you have less than ~60GB free, you may have trouble downloading the update. This does not mean that the entire game is re-downloaded, it just means that the update may not download if you don't have that much space available.

Doing Casino Heist (artwork) solo. Which hacker do you recommend?
Hello! Recently, I have been using my nephew's account to play 2 characters at the same time. I have been doing this to have an extra pair of hands during setups. Nice to not have to take two trips to collect equipment. I also did some doomsday setups as a solo and certain missions can be quite fun/challenging.
I am now setting up a new Casino Heist and have began to wonder, could I do this alone? Finding good partners can be frustrating at times due to numerous reasons. /HeistTeams is a useful resource but it can sometimes take a while to find people and link up.
I just scoped Artwork. I think I can do the entire heist playing on two accounts at the same time with Big Con. But I'm a little stuck on deciding which hacker to employ, when doing this heist solo, playing two accounts at the same time. I have been getting away with 7% because I have not unlocked the others. Do you think I would need Paige? I am an decent hacker (5-8sec/finger) and would use the long animation as the time to reposition and do cuts. Thoughts?
Another solution would be to find some people to play with. I've made the odd friend here and there, but suffer from timezone/language differences. I generally find most people I run across, fall into 3 categories: Wayy to tryhard, wayy to toxic, or does not talk at all. If you know some chill, laidback people who like to goof off and mess about, hit me up.
Thank you for reading.
UPDATE: I did it. One player, two accounts. Artwork, Big Con, Paige, 1.9m take. Finished in 23 minutes. It was my first time, so it was pretty rough around the edges. However, there were parts that were absolutely thrilling.
The heist itself went fine. A little tedious switching between the two characters. My attempts to control both characters at the same time were all failures. But while I was definitely on the edge of my seat in the vault. Every second that ticked gave me bit of anxiety. I was almost immediately panicked because I got a bad vault layout, every painting was locked behind a door. Lost a bit of time there as the strategy was to run to start a hack and while the animation and cut scene ran, I would position the other character at a painting to cut. But outside of that one hiccup, it went pretty smooth. Overrall a decent experience. I dont know if I would recommend it to anyone, but I'd probably do it again.
I know it’s been out for a while but for those of you are unaware this is how you do the gold bar glitch in the Diamond Casino Heist. Video Tutorial Instructions:
Take 1 bar from Cart A and leave the cart
Take 1 bar from Cart B and leave the cart
Take 1 bar from Cart C and leave the cart
Note: Player-2 should be doing the same thing with DIFFERENT carts. Most likely one person will get 2 carts while the other person gets 3 carts.
Go back to Cart A and start grabbing the full cart. Player-2 should also start grabbing for real.
Each player should grab each of the carts they originally took 1 bar from.
As always, be sure to start leaving the vault with enough time to remain undetected for an easy escape (unless you’re doing Aggressive).
You must take 1 bar from all the carts you plan on duping before anyone starts grabbing for real. The layouts vary so it won’t necessarily be carts A, B & C every time but you want to try to duplicate 5 carts total. ONLY works with GOLD.
The main feature of this update doesn't need a lot of patch notes: there's two new dungeons to explore! One is a group dungeon that can be reached from the Fae Realm. The other is a solo experience inside Hogan's Keep (which will require you to be on good terms with Hogan to get in). There's also a new skill that can be learned in one of them. We plan to do a little bit more with each dungeon (decorations, a few lore notes, side quests, etc.), but these are ready for you to test! We're particularly interested in feedback regarding problems with dungeon flow or monster difficulty (too easy/too hard).
Aurest Missions
The Autumn Resistance is looking for mighty heroes who are willing to work for Councils. Each day there's a different high-level group dungeon available from the local Aurest leader, who can be found in the casino (usually near the bar). To speak with Lady Alethina, you'll need to be famous enough for her to have heard of you (Notoriety 25), and have two combat skills level 50+. And on some days, the daily mission has a higher level requirement than 50. There are 7 different Aurest missions (so far). Each day a new mission is chosen randomly, leaving out the ones that ran the past four days. So you won't see the same quest too quickly in a row.
Goblin Dungeon Revamp
We've remade the "Goblin Dungeon" (under Castle Eltibule) with a new art set. The original dungeon was just too ugly: it was made during pre-alpha with placeholder art, and the textures were too low-res to be saved. But we didn't want to make a NEW dungeon, we wanted to keep the old dungeon! So this is actually a replica of the old dungeon's layout. It uses approximately the same spawns, loot, monsters, etc. just with different dungeon art. The old dungeon was unfurnished, so this replica is too. We'll definitely be fixing that, but first we want to make sure everything still works, more or less as it did before. If it doesn't, please let us know.
Combat Balance Changes
Animal Handling pets have reduced health and armor (not very noticeable at low level, but reduced by 20-40% at level 80, depending on the specific pet)
Significantly nerfed the damage of Elite and Boss monsters (by about 70-120 damage per attack, for level 80s).
(But note that their Rage attacks weren't nerfed! They deal approximately the same damage as before.)
Manticore Changes
Manticores are involved in one of the new Aurest missions, and have been refactored for that purpose.
Nerfed the hell out of manticores' stats
Nerfed loot also
Changed respawn rate to be more typical (to make it plausible for a group of level 55s, say, to farm them)
Hegemonic Storage Keys drop much more often, although the amount of loot from the hegemonic chests is reduced a bit
Other Changes
Fixed animation issue with golems that made them seem to blip around as they walked
Fixed animation issue with trolls that made them keep running when they should have stopped
Frost Hippogriffs, which were previously just blue versions of regular Hippogriffs, now have more distinctive attacks
Solving the vault puzzle in a War Cache now also gives out 1-4 sacks of Councils, as well as a random piece of gear as before
Emotes like /wave and /cry now have a different message when you have something selected, versus when you have nothing selected
Added "/thank" and "/cheer" emotes (which just perform a waving animation for now)
You can no longer butcher Striga for meat (because they are sentient)
Fixed display issue that caused all Elite/Boss monsters to have the Thick Armor descriptor. (This wasn't technically a bug, because all Elites do get some thick armor automatically. But this made it impossible to differentiate typical elites from elites that have a LOT of thick armor. Now only the thickest elites are so labeled.)
Recipe for Forensic Analysis Kit now requires a higher-quality first aid kit
Tweaked Qatik's Casino Excursion quests to actually require you to pick up the items requested
"Labyrinth" dungeon tweaks: entrance is easier, Asterion is nerfed a bit, final maze has a somewhat more reasonable monster distribution, added a map
Laura Neth now accepts work orders from animals
Fixed bug with treasure generation on Fairy Dirks
The emergency-exit portal at the bottom of the Wolf Den dungeon could not be selected (except at a very odd angle)
Fixed a bunch of ability buffs that could persist even after the caster switched combat skills. In some cases this could be exploited by rapidly switching loadouts to gain the benefits from more than two combat skills at once. We've fixed many of these type of bugs, although we're still rooting them out of nooks and crannies of the game and some probably still remain. Please report them! It is never intentional for you to keep the benefits from a combat skill that's no longer active.
Fixed a few abilities and treasure effects that boosted Movement Speed when they were supposed to boost Sprint Speed. (The difference is that Movement Speed also boosts fly/swim speed, and prevents roots/slows from being as effective.)
Moderately increased the cash value of higher-level magic items. (Only applies to newly-generated weapons.)
Fox Outpost defense crystals no longer shoot foxes on sight (other fox tweaks to come, just didn't fit in this update!)
