Major Updates
Cross Progression Integration

When starting up Phantom Hysteria for the first time, you will now be asked to create an account with Lunar Tale Games. This is being integrated as future proofing for release on different platforms. You will have to set up a username and password, but once Phantom Hysteria is on any other platform, all you will have to do to continue your current progress is log in!
Composure

Composure as a mechanic has been removed from the game. We felt that it didn't add anything of value to the core gameplay. As such, there are a few changes! Arcana cards involving the composure mechanic have been removed from the game. Composure shots have been reworked into adrenal shots. All class abilities involving composure have been removed or reworked.
Class Reworks

Due to the removal of composure as well as some feedback from our beta testers, we wanted to make sure that all classes felt useful.

Scholar

Scholar's level 10 active ability has been reworked into "The Invisible Man". This ability makes the player invisible to the phantom for a short period of time with a cooldown of 60 seconds.
The level 15 passive ability "Shots" has been updated to increase the effectiveness of Adrenal Shots rather than Composure Shots.
"Land Mines", the level 40 passive ability, has been updated to starting a match with an EMF Mine waiting for you in the Equipment Room.
The second active ability at level 50 has been fully reworked. "It's Miller Time!" will allow players to instantly reload or recharge their current weapon with a cooldown of 60 seconds.
Attuned

The first active ability on Attuned has been reworked as "Life Steal". At level 10, players can now activate this ability to take 10% of the phantom's health to heal themselves.
The level 15 passive has been reworked as "Oh a Clue!" which will allow players to see the trail of the phantom periodically.
Attuned's level 30 passive is now "Second Wind" which will regenerate health while the player is not in combat.
The second active ability has been reworked as "Last Stand". This makes the player invulnerable for 60 seconds as a one time use in a match.
Neutralizer

The level 40 passive has been reworked. "Salty" allows players to deal 5% more damage with salt-based weapons.
Shaman

Shaman's level 10 active ability has been reworked as "I Got You Covered". With this, the player is able to give themselves or another player a temporary shield that reduces damage from the phantom on a cooldown of 60 seconds.
"Unwavering" is Shaman's new level 40 passive. Once a player drops below 50% health, the next hit from a phantom will heal them for the amount of damage dealt. This passive only activates once per match.
The second active ability, "Living Dead", has been updated so that players must now sacrifice a portion of their health in order to revive a teammate. The resurrected teammate will now come back with 50% of their health.

Balance Changes

The pull damage per second from Molly's ultimate has been reduced from 3 to 1
Phantoms will now regenerate their health during Neutralization phase if the players have voted for the incorrect ghost
