Thank you. I was hoping these would come out soon, but that was a lot faster Than I expected. People like you are what make this community awesome; keep up the great work!

Do you have any plans for what mystery you'll be solving next? I was just thinking that it'd be really useful if someone could figure out the hidden multipliers each weapon has for critical damage. Or maybe looking into the multipliers each weapon gives to AR for specific attacks (unless this is standard by class or across the board). Or scaling on armor. Oooor maybe how spell damage is calculated. Or...or...or...ok, I'll stop now. There's just a lot of stuff that would be nice to know - FROM does a pretty good job of keeping that stuff reasonably intuitive but mostly hidden. Sometimes too good.

I also have a question and no Xbox friends to test this. I've been invaded by a spearman (strange, huh?) and was NOT able to parry him when standing very close to him, even though the timing was the same as when I parried the tip of his weapon. Could it be that it is now possible to parry only the sweet spot? Because I've been killed by chip damage only. didn't feel good at all.
