[*]Reduced damage the giant spider takes from acid slightly since I lowered its base HP recently. [*]Spider eggs should now take damage from wands.

[*]Acts of piety will now be remembered by the gods. [*]Added little hints to the loading screen. [*]Some other audio and visual tweaks, and some minor optimization. [/list] Several nerfs in this one as I found the buffs in the previous patch caused power creep on higher levels. This patch will have to upgrade your savegames upon loading. That means the game will generate a new dungeon floor of your current dungeon level. Your character and items will remain unchanged. Their stats may however be inappropriate given the balance changes.
