Hack description
The patch contains:
-Bribery Glitch fixed. You can still skip the messages, but bribery fails if the battle should not allow it.
-Clay Guardian effects restored. By default, the patch will utilize base defense for the character. Original intent is unknown, so total defense is allowed as an option. The total defense version opens the door to an exploit, where the bonus will be compounded every time the spell is used, e.g. 100 total defense becomes 150, with the next cast defense is increased to 225, and so on. The base defense version is not exploitable.
-Guardian of Earth effects restored. The notes from Clay Guardian apply to this as well.
-Krin and Stallion will no longer start with Escape Talismans that can be used many times.
