Miscellaneous

The following patch notes are unofficial and subject to change prior to the full release of Patch 8.

•  Tavern Brawler in wild shape form should now correctly add damage to unarmed attacks. Previously, this only worked in Tactician difficulty and below.
  • It still does not apply to  Slayer Form.
  • The bonus damage while wild shaped applies to all damage dealt, including spell damage. For example,  Spike Growth cast by a wild shaped druid will deal bonus Strength modifier damage every time a creature moves.
  • Some wild shape attacks like  Grounded Thunder Strike deal multiple instances of damage. The Tavern Brawler bonus damage will be applied to each of them.
•  Elemental Weapon now gives a +1 bonus to  Attack Rolls and 1d4 elemental damage. Previously it gave +1 enhancement bonus and 1d4 elemental damage.
  • This results in -1 damage overall.
  • This also applies to  Draconic Elemental Weapon and  Elemental Age.
•  Storm's Fury now deals ⁠Lightning damage. Previously, it erroneously dealt ⁠Thunder damage.
•  Jhannyl's Gloves has the cooldown removed from the Defy Villainy feature. It can now activate an unlimited number of times instead of once per long rest.
•  Shadow Blade summoned weapon now grants innate proficiency to the summoner. This means wizards and sorcerers (who lack proficiency with shortswords) can wield the weapon without penalties.
•  Healing Vapours ability of Water Myrmidons no longer applies  Wet to all creatures in the radius.
•  Wall of Ice now correctly deals 10d6⁠⁠Cold damage with the Ice Cloud created when it is destroyed. Previously it dealt 5d6⁠⁠Cold damage instead. The saving throw is still a fixed  DC 16 Constitution Saving Throw, however.
•  Bind Pact Weapon and  Weapon Bond are now correctly removed on changing class. Previously, the weapon would indefinitely remain bonded with all the benefits (such as using Charisma for attacks) even switching from Warlock.
•  Grasping Vine now uses a  Bonus Action even when upcast. Previously, it erroneously used a full  Action when upcast.
•  Spindleweb Skepticism inflicted by Kar'niss now applies a -6  Armour Class penalty instead of -4.
•  Amulet of the Drunkard now correctly applies its healing effect every turn. Previously, it only worked for a single turn.
•  Primal Strike is now required for wildshapes to deal magical damage. Previously, wildshapes of level 5 or higher always dealt magical damage even for non-Moon druids. Primal Strikes only affected the pre-level 5 wildshape forms.
• The Punch-Drunk Bastard's ability Tippler's Rage now hits allies as well as enemies in its blast radius, where as it would only target enemies and objects prior to Patch 8
