Upcoming Patch: 7.11b (ETA: 11/23/2011? -- submitted, pending on Valve release)
7.11b
* All: Chicken buff +33% damage, meant to be in 7.11 but didn't make it in time
* All: Electric Aura damage ramp buff 10%
* All: Fixed a Client-side "Joust" issue
* All: Fixed minor exploit involving certain upgraded items selling for more money than you put into them + original worth.
* All: Fixed Huntress Trap Upgrade Health/Damage Scaling
* PvE: Turkey Hunt: Mega Turkey can now target invisible Huntresses/Players, as all Bosses are supposed to be able to, and Added approximately 1.5 minutes wave-time to Easy and Normal Turkey Hunt, and 30 seconds to Hard
* Pve: Made super-loot ramp easier, better loot at lower waves, in Shop and Pure Strat too
* All: Fixed issue with "Remote Defense Boost" stat-boost enhancement not appearing correctly on Client-side. Also cut its Mana Consumption Cost-Over-Time by 25% (less cost to keep it going)

why do they go from versions x.xx to x.xxb not x.xxa first?

I am guessing they regard 7.11 as "a" and anything after b,c, d ect.

kinda thought this

Upcoming Patch: 7.12
7.12
* All: Allowed players to create their own "Tavern Shop" with their items, set prices on those items, and then specifically list their game as an "AFK Shop" game.

Sounds cool, but they still should just create an auction house. Not only would it help track those selling hacked items, it would give us a more clear view of the max stats on items.

thats gonna be awesome and help tons, wont be long till they make an auction house style of thing.
