Instead of the drop rate for higher runes going down exponentially, it goes down linearly. Beating Normal Difficulty allows you to see Nightmare and Normal Games. Beating Nightmare Difficulty allows you to see Hell, Nightmare, and Normal Games.

This is a friendly server. This is not Bnet. If you come to play here, try to help out your fellow PoD adventurers. If someone is muling in a public game don't take their items.

Quality of life features/servers : Players now have a charm inventory.

It is basically a second inventory added below the original one. Charms will only work there and no longer clutter your inventory space. If you put a charm in the upper inventory, it's level requirement will jump above 100, in other words it will have no effect. In singleplayer this doesn't work, it's just a bigger inventory.

Loot filter: Make your own or use community filters.

Quickly move items to stash or ground via control/shift right click.

Inspect the gear of allies.

Game timer.

Advanced Character Sheet: see many stats you couldn't see before. ("8" to show the sheet)

Remembers your previous Game Name and Game Server.

Automatically party up/permit loot when players join game.

"First to reach level..." announcements.

When you create games, you can select a server near you for better ping. Here's the full list of servers.

POD Advanced trading website. It allows you to create trading posts and find items you are looking for based on your ladder type (Hardcore/Softcore).

Armory - Enter the character name to see their gear and setup. Use the POD Ladder tab to find the higher level character's names.

Improved protection against cheats.

(No Cheating Allowed. No Maphack. No Bots. No Multiclienting. See the rules here).

Move Only option (skill) that can be assigned to left click. Allows players to move around without attacking or casting accidentally.

The Cow King no longer spawn in the Secret Cow Level. (To not disable Cow Level creation upon his death)

Global chat system. Visit the "CHAT" tab of this subreddit to find out how to join the channel.

Improved detection and prevention against some cheating software.

You may now create up to 18 characters per account.

"Use arrow keys to go down in the list." - /u/KarvarouskuGaming

The stash size has been increased from 6x8 to 10x10.

You can have Multiple Shrines of the same type at once.*

Automatic Game filtering : 1. Beating Normal Difficulty allows you to see Nightmare and Normal Games. 2. Beating Nightmare Difficulty allows you to see Hell, Nightmare, and Normal Games.

All classes now start with +100 stamina. (Less walking at lower levels)

Base mana regeneration of all classes increased from 0.83% to 1.66%.
