Patch 1.0.3.2006

UI and Game Play enhancements

• Visual support for buffs are now in!
• Auto loot now works.
• Group experience rules are implemented. The system message will state how much of the exp one gained was from the group bonus. A range check is now in effect, one can not gain quest credit or EXP from kills made by a group member that is a long way off.
