The third regular update for Rapture has been released! This update is primarily focused on introducing new content. More specifically this patch contains two new events, a new character with a unique gimmick, party randomization and a few new unlockable relics - plus a few noteable bug fixes.
New Event - Perfect Clear
A new type of event that appears on all layers past the first one as long as no player deaths have occured in battle. This event will raise all your attributes by 1 and allows you to learn the Perfect Strike, an ability that always scales off your highest attribute.
New Character - Tamamo, The Mimic
An intelligent fox with a talent for mimicry, Tamamo learns moves by directly observing enemies. Her only ability is "Imitate" which allows Tamamo to learn the last ability used by the target enemy. Abilities that are taught this way are always available to Tamamo however she can only learn up to 6 abilities in total. Once per floor, you may encounter a special event that allows Tamamo to reset any number of abilities.
New Event - Ability Reset
A unique event that occurs once per floor as long as Tamamo is in the party. This event will allow her to reset any number of abilities that she picked up back to "Imitate" for free.
New Feature - Randomize Party
You can now click "Randomize" during Party Selection and a new party will be generated for you. The game will attempt to create a balanced party composition by default, picking one character from the following categories: Healing, Defensive, Attacking and Utility.
New Unlockable Relics
Three new unlockable relics have been added to Rapture.
- Halo [+1 All Stats] - Whenever you receive a healing effect, raise one of your stats at random by 1 stage. Unlocked by encountering 5 Torii events.
- Harvester [+2 Special] - Whenever you use an ability against an non-elite enemy, deal extra damage equal to 1/6th of his current health. If the target has Fear then deal damage equal to 1/5th of his current health instead. Unlocked by incapacitating 400 enemies in total.
- Jack-o-Lantern [+1 Attack, +1 Special] - At the start of your turn you have a 50% chance to apply Fear to a random enemy for 2 turns. Unlocked by collecting 300 Relics in total.
