- SettingsGraphic settings auto-apply automatically; the Apply and Cancel buttons are currently non-functional.
- General UI

◆Other changes10
- Friends List
- Grouping across different strongholds requires the in-game Friends List and manual exchange of Friend Codes via external chat.
- Friends List does not indicate if players are in different regions, which can lead to high latency as all players are placed in the party leader's region.
- Friend status only updates based on game login, ignoring Steam's online status.
- PartyAccepting a new party invite while already in a party will automatically remove the player from their current group.
- Game Finder
- Players can host/find dungeons below unlock levels, leading to long queues as lower-difficulty players cannot join.
- Quickplay requires a strict 'Holy Trinity' (1 Tank, 1 Healer, 2 DPS); non-standard compositions must use 'Host Game'.
- SettingsThe Auto-Detect button for graphics is unreliable and should not be used.
- Map
- Training dummies incorrectly suggest they provide killscore; there is no killscore in the Stronghold.100%→0% %
- Bosses may not appear on the map if they are too far from the player when the map is opened.
- General UIUI windows do not close when changing heroes, which can lead to broken UI layouts.
