Phones and the Android app

Gameplay

Auto retaliate

New in Settings > Gameplay, and on by default. If you are idle and a monster shoots or casts at you, you fight back: with a bow you walk into range and fire, with a melee weapon you walk over and fight, and a Void Sceptre set to autocast casts its spell. Other staffs and wands, and bows without arrows, do nothing.

It never acts against players, in duels or in events.

Settings, Gameplay page, ending at Ambience.
Before
Settings, Gameplay page, with Auto retaliate On as the last row.
After

The new row sits at the bottom of the Gameplay page.

Bank tabs hold their items

Moving an item into a bank tab now takes it off Main, so Main shows only the items in no tab. Search still covers the whole bank.

Prefer the old view? Right-click Main (tap it on a phone) and pick Main shows: Everything. Each device remembers your choice.
