Whoa, is the 100% xp increase on top of the existing increase in 2.1? Or am I reading this wrong? I have a feeling I am reading this wrong …

The only experience changes happened in this last patch, 2.2 (these patch notes are a bit late). It essentially counters the 50% reduction that happens when experience is split.

Before:
Enemy dies and yields 100xp. Main Hero gets 50, Hireling gets 50.

After:
Enemy dies and yields 100xp. Main Hero gets 100, Hireling gets 100. (each increased by 100%)

Ah, so basically, there is no xp reduction now, when we level with hirelings?

Correct. There will still be a split when there is a great level difference, but in the example i gave (which assumes levels are near each other) you won’t have a penalty.

When will you fix the twister bug?

It will be fixed when the next patch is released, which should be by the end of the month.

Was searching but didn’t find anything. Won’t it be possible to make it easier to convert/salvage the crystals and mythstones by removing the 25 max limit?

Little bugs report.
The number of gold in the inventory and in the feat in the codex its different.
You can see when you start a new game.
Some times the number in inventory is greater than in the feat book and the other new game, the number of gold is grater in feat book than in the inventory screen.
But, it’s only difference about 1 - 2 gold.

Seems like the other bugs on skills was already fixed well. How about the CYCLONE MYTHIC? the animation is still crappy to look at. way different from before.
