Pillars Of Eternity Patch Fixes Ability-Removing Bug
Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity is getting a patch to fix the game's passive ability-wiping bug, among other things.
Patch 1.03 addresses problems like the game falsely increasing attributes on characters when equipping certain items, and passive abilities being removed when double-clicking (instead of dragging) and equipping some items.
The fixes are retroactive, so if you have an affected character, they will go back to their normal state once the patch is implemented.
This is just the tip of the patch's iceberg, and you can see the full notes at Obsidian's forums.

The number of fixes covered by the patch is impressive, and it's good that Obsidian got this out relatively quickly.
