UPlay doesn't seem to autopatch this one. Any ideas why?

Maybe because autopatcher has issue with previous patch (2.1), which was too large for it.

BTW 90 MB for only few fixes?

ANd could someone please tell Ubisoft and its team to write normal patch notes, for example instead write "After creating 100 heroes the 'Create New Hero' button is grayed out and no additional heroes can be created.", write "It's avaiable now to creating new hero after buying/creating 100 heroes".

Those were probably written by Virtuos, so I'm not surprised. :D

Ahem... the notes of all patches suffer from the same issue. They do not seem to contain information about what was fixed; they only give information about the initial problem/bug.

In many cases it's not at all obvious what the fix was about. For example, this is from 1.8: "- Assailant I - Inconsistency between tooltip and behavior"

So? What did you fix? Did you change the tooltip text or the game's behaviour?

The notes should not contain the buglist instead of the fixlist.

2 x noooo!

1. This kind of patch "notes" started long ago, probably when Limbic took care about patches themselves.

2. These are not patch notes, but copy-pased reported bugs from various bug threats. So these are "notes" posted by players and not written by any Ubisoft's studio or employee.

Unable to use Dynasty Weapon....

I hope it fixes Sanctuary 2 Campaign where your Dynasty Weapon used in Campaign 1 is grayed-out in Irinas spell book. If you swap the weapon, it shows as new weapon in her hand but Campaign 1 grayed-out weapon in spell book.
