- Fixed Shieldbreaker applying the debuff on Spell Damage
- Fixed Frost Rider slow from Cursed Shield working correctly
- This was missing from the 2.1.4 Patch Notes:
* Amun-Ra's Path of Destruction is now a ground target ability instead of a facing ability. Still goes 600 units, just in the direction you target

Version 2.1.4

-----------

- The current Free Heroes have changed. The current available list is:

* Soulstealer

* Silhouette

* Defiler

* Gladiator

* Tremble

* Devourer

- Kongor

* Fixed the faction, non-player-controlled units giving the team 0 gold when they land the killing blow from Kongor.

* Now if a non-player controlled unit lands the killing blow on Kongor, then it gives 230 gold to the team (before it was giving 0)

- Shieldbreaker: Increased damage by 10 per level from 30/45/60 to 40/55/70 and ignore's the target's Deflection when you attack them
