Patch made more than just fixes

I've noticed a few other changes the patch apparently made
that Verant didn't bother documenting (as far as I've found).
This is very limited because we only discovered these 2 late
last night.

1) An NPC named Heidi Grainsifter in the South Qeynos bakery
used to be one of the only merchants who strongly disliked me
(glowers dubiously). She in fact outright killed my pal Salieri
one time (which makes shopping for muffins an adventure every
time). Therefore, I had assumed that she must be part of the
"conspiracy" in Qeynos as both of us turn in lots and lots of
gnolls teeth. However, last night, she's now suddenly "looks
warmly". No, nothing we did comes close to such a radical
faction adjustment.

2) One of the jewelry sellers in North Qeynos now sells
virtually all the gemstones. Before, she only sold jewelry,
the metal bars, kits and some misc.

Anyone notice other undocumented changes?

All over the place things are working and a little different.

One I found was that Safe Fall will increase even if you don't take
damage (as long as the fall was enough of a drop to have damaged you
if you didn't have Safe Fall at all).

The griffins seemed tamer last night. One flapped its wings *directly over*
my head (leisurely, not chasing someone) and left me and my 2 buddies alone.

During the evening I heard someone /shout that the same thing happened to
them.

I had a griff fly over our party, it killed me, but left all the
other party members intact.

I noticed that too. I was hunting with a ranger frined of mine & he
mentioned two dwarven bandidts in the area.

In the standing stones area between Kaladim and the dock, there are now Aqua
Goblins (con blue to my lvl 9 cleric) wandering around. The 2 I killed each
had a melee, a bow, arrows and a piece of cloth armor. I noticed that there
tended to be two at a time, though I was able to separate them.

Don't tell anyone though...nice piece of change for a non-bow non-edged
weapons person. =)

A new NPC in the Crushbone mines, Rondo Dunfire a dwarf bandit.

At least, he's new to me, but I don't think he was there before
the patch.

There's a new NPC Cleric in the White Bridge Tower. He will cure
disease and cure poison in exchange for "donations" - One is 5 gold
and the other is 4 water flasks (or something weird like that).

Yes, I had lots of close encounters with griffins last night, and I
lived to tell. In fact, I have a character who has been hunting in E.
Commons since lvl 2, and hasn't been griffed once.
