Add 0.1s delay on Hidden Dagger's throw for Thief. Allows the player to potentially jump through a target and being able to hit them with it. Fix Stone Elementals facing the incorrect direction while casting stone pillars. Move 2-8 end ring to more sensible area (in front of Chapter 2 boss arena). Reduce Chapter 2 Boss' and Stone Elemental's collision radius to better match the sprite. Add iframe time when hit by a breaking stone pillar's bullet ring to prevent getting obliterated by standing in the center of the bullet ring. Release Build 10261.
