So the 1.03 Patch Notes had a vague note about misc fixes. I wanted to see if we can get a good list going here of these unnamed changes, with video/ photo documentation to help provide some proof.

If you have an example I will add a QRT to this thread.
Some missing killboxes that allowed the death cam to trigger while the player survived have been fixed (but not all).

One specific one that's been found so far is this pit in the Impaler's Catacombs:
Scripted falls that are supposed to turn off fall damage + death previously had an issue where attacking-while-falling somehow confused it and caused death anyways. This appears to have been fixed as well.
This is a strange one that I suppose belongs under "text fixes", only you'd be forgiven for assuming that would mean typo fixes, spacing fixes, or maybe even some additional mechanical clarification on something...

But they renamed the "Warhammer" weapon class to "Great Hammer".
(perhaps that was to help avoid a possible issue with the Warhammer IP?)
This one is pretty interesting; They removed some branches (near Sellia Crystal Tunnel) to make sequence breaking harder. But it's still possible anyways. Credit to @Elajjaz for helping spread the knowledge on this-

I don't have good post-patch footage since I'm not there on Playstation yet, but the Trolls outside the Old Altus Tunnel used to be a hooded variant that had incredibly low HP (only 39!) and didn't drop any runes. This was fixed though it also changed them to no longer be hooded.
But you can see what they were replaced with in this tweet that brought it to my attention:

I was doing some invasions earlier today and ran into a host doing this down below on the pillar between the two spirit springs.

I was also hungry so I went AFK and ate lunch while in the host's world and hunters didn't bother me...😅
I think the host got frustrated with the relative lack of activity (we were both over-leveled for the area), and probably didn't like that I was going AFK in their AFK session.
I won the standoff after being in their world for more than 30 mins when they gave up and jumped down to their death.

I enjoyed some hot pockets and got the data I was looking for in the end (doing some invasion range testing).

I'd be interested to learn more about what's behind the "you won't step off a ledge when attacking if it's a lethal fall" thing, because the shorthand/ community explanation isn't the full picture.

It does nothing to inform you of fall survivability, actually!
I think it might just be a safety thing that's baked into the geometry of most ledges that have any kind of noteworthy drop, regardless if it's actually dangerous or just something the devs thought might be a hassle for the player.
There are places with well under 16 m drops that this applies, so not only does it not give you a ballpark answer about fall survivability, but it also protects you from some falls that wouldn't even cause damage.

I spoke with Patrick about illusory walls and their frequency/ usage throughout the Souls games, while he researched the history of the term, the mixed use of "illusory" vs "illusionary", etc. Check it out!
"A Google search for “illusory wall” brings up references to Demon’s Souls, but it mostly seems like people are applying this term retroactively."

This is spot on and I can provide a little more context-
There was mixed use in the community, for sure, but the Atlus guide never used the term and the wikidot wiki exclusively said "illusionary" while the game was contemporary.

Its only use of "illusory"? A while after Dark Souls 1 came out.
