- The big monster update. All monsters have had their skills and behaviour changed. The new AI system creates some absolutely brutal fights. I die every time I test the game now, often in scary ways.
- New skills, supports and at least one new quest and monster type.
- A rebalance of all weapon and damage values in the game so that the progression is a bit flatter. This fixes many problems in the game balance. No longer will your level 12 rare item be outdated by a level 17 normal item.
- The option to put the minimap in the corner of the screen rather than as an overlay.
- Meaningful act boss drops now that they're harder to abusively farm.
- At least two things I can't talk about yet but might be of interest to some users.
0.9.9 is not the last patch before Open Beta. 0.9.10 is next :)

Will this mean a wipe?

Looks like a lot of significant gameplay changes!
On the other hand, when is the AoF tweak coming?

doesn't sound like it. Maybe a skill reset at most...

Oh yeah, Avatar of Fire is removed in 0.9.9 while we teach him how to play fair.
