This patch aims to address imbalance problems such as Pengloom, Ice bonus, Poison bonus, Pengloom and Pengloom and to make the base game easier while making the extra difficulties more impactful
Difficulty Changes:
- Endless wild Automon levels reduced
- Non-endless wild Automon levels reduced
- Non-endless boss Automon levels reduced
- Difficulty modifiers are now as follows: Difficulty 1 : Normal Mode 2: -2 Starter levels 3: 10% Champion Levels 4: -15% Non-combat healing 5: -1 Box size 6: 15% Wild Automon Levels 7: 1 Upgrade to a random boss automon 8: -1 Box size 9: 15% extra boss levels 10: No easy areas after 15 11 to infinity: +2% Wild Automon Levels +2% Boss Levels +2% Champion Levels -2% Healing (up to 50%)
You might notice that there is no exp penalty at all now - this is because it's pretty much equivalent to the enemies having more levels
Automons:
- Base HP of all Automon reduced by 5
- All monotype Automon abilities now upgrade with a rate of 1/2/3 instead of the regular 1/1.5/2. Florey is unchanged because it was technically already like this for him
- Stats of many Automons changed, scroll to the bottom of the patch notes to see the details
Areas:
- Legendary areas now can't appear in areas 11, 21 and 31.
Bosses:
- Block now can't be the first boss (thematic fail, I know)
- Endika, Stephen and Block are now 20% more likely to be chosen as the next boss (to offset the fact that they can't show up as boss #6, #1 and #1 respectively)
- Default Champions now have 3 badges of different types
- Ice Champion team reworked so that her secondary types are Grass and Rock instead of Wind and Rock (Wind was previously overrepresented in Champion teams, Grass was underrepresented)
Party bonuses:
- Wind bonus from 75% SPD to 60%
- Fire bonus per tier from 5% to 6%
- Ice bonus per tier from 12% to 10%
- Poison bonus reduced by flat 0.5
Other:
- Few words added to random seed title
Bug Types:
- Florey's ability not working for bosses
- Champion's music not stopping on loss
