When looking at an item either physically or through eqinfo, the Power row will now tell you if the item's Weapon Power, Magic Attack, Defense, or Magic Defense is higher, equal, or lower than your currently equipped item. If you have Two Swords, it will also show the comparison to your off-hand weapon.

Once per week, for the low price of 10000 gold, you can now reroll the leads that Baku has available as rewards for his missions by saying 'reroll' to him. So, although these items are all tradeable, it should be a little easier to get leads to steal items for your own build as you're leveling up.


I'll rip your lungs (2) out

A new passive ability, Treasure Hunter, has been added to the thief job, unlocked at job level 12. This ability gives you a chance to steal multiple copies of an item when you use Steal. This lets you use Toss multiple times before you need to steal again. Stealing a new item will still replace your currently stolen items, regardless of how many you have.
Although leveling Treaure Hunter is not really a power upgrade to your average damage per round compared to leveling Toss instead, this should give players the option to mitigate some of the randomness of Steal/Toss. The design of thief was always for players to gain new ways to mitigate the job's randomness as they gained ability levels, be that via passive damage from Mug, non-random abilities on cooldowns, or unlocking the Luck ability. Now you have a new way to do so.

The animist accessory Blue Water has been altered slightly to not have the word "orb" in its description, and no longer has the "orb" ID. Additionally, the slowproof accessory Pretty Orb no longer appears in the mystery dungeon. In its place, a new accessory, Pretty Sphere, has been added that appears only in the mystery dungeon. The Pretty Sphere is identical in every way to the Pretty Orb except that it doesn't have the word orb in its name.
If you haven't played much in the mystery dungeon, this might seem like a very weird change. But if you have, you get it.


Bestiary

A new command has been added to the game: bestiary. Not to be confused with the ability in Trainer with the same name, the Bestiary command is effectively a search command for monsters. Similar to how 'eqsearch' works to help you find equipment, 'bestiary' will let you find normal, tough, and boss monsters that can be found in any of the areas that the 'areas' command displays. Want to find out where all the undead mobs are? Bestiary can do that.
Bestiary isn't meant to completely replace scanning abilities such as Libra, Peep, and Scanner. You can still get more detailed information from those abilities.
There are a lot of monsters that won't show up on bestiary, though. Monsters such as militia, Veldt, Deep Dungeon, superbosses, and unique mission monsters aren't in the list, so don't go making bug reports for missing monsters unless you're absolutely certain one is missing from a zone.
