 * Changed Super Anvil falling damage to scale with velocity.

 * Changed Blacksmith shop to carry ores instead of bars.
 * Changed Devil's Subwoofer to also provide area-of-effect On Fire! debuff immunity.


 * Changed Thorium's 35% Damage Reduction cap into a dynamic cap:
 * Using only Thorium DR, the cap is 50%. This cap gets lowered by non-Thorium DR to a minimum of 20%.
 * Added a configurable Damage Reduction UI shield to the left of the Defense UI shield.


 * Adjusted Big Instruments:
 * Fully redone timers, they are now more consistent in both the looks and how they work.
 * Added a mouse element to better guide players on how each timer works.
 * Changed the timing on the Instruments to be more lenient and more consistent.

 * Added 10% Exhaustion recovery after killing an enemy with a non-consumable throwing weapon.


 * Adjusted Movement Speed effects in the mod:
 * Reworked many effects to affect proper movement related statistics. This unfortunately results in mostly minor nerfs all across the board.
 * Crystal Wave now increases base movement speed. This alleviates movement speed increases seemingly capping in vanilla and makes both waves and movement increasing effects more potent.


 * Adjusted many UI and Config options:
 * Updated the Technique, Big Instrument, Hellfire Mini-gun, and Hungering Blossom gauges to be true UIs and not projectiles.
 * Added a configurable option to display Life Shielding over the player's life bar. (This should help players with custom life bar mods)

 * Added the ability to configure the obtainability of Donator items in the mod. Players and server hosts can now choose from a list whether chosen donator items are obtainable during normal gameplay or not.
 * Updated Essence of Flame, Nuclear Fury, P.L.G. 8999, Cryomancer's armor, Cat's Eye Great Staff, Plague Lord's Flask, and Abyssal Walker set sprites and effects.

 * Added Large Coral and Jungle Flower tiles to offer additional methods of obtaining Coral and Petals respectively.
 * Additionally made Coral generate a little bit quicker on the ocean floor.
 * Changed Petal item crafting costs to account for the amount received from Jungle Flowers.


 * Adjusted Musician's Handbook so that the symphonic playing speed bonus is dependent on the accessory slot (0-100%).
