Hey everyone!
We're excited to release this update. We've made a bunch of gameplay tweaks, added a new feature called Shrines, which add a meaningful decision point before boss encounters, and improved the UI across the board. We've also overhauled the Empower screen, which is now way more informative and much easier to use.
Check out the full details below.
Gameplay
- Added Dungeon Shrine: - Encountered just before the boss. - Awaken the Shrine to release the spirit of the dungeon and cleanse its corruption, consuming all remaining Lumina Kindlings and healing all heroes for 40% of their Max HP per Kindling used.
- Quest rewards are now available at the Shrine, instead of the next Camp.
UI/UX
- Improved backpack polish and usability, including adding item dragging.
- Right-clicking a card now previews upgrades for that card, in most contexts.
- Added the ability to toggle a hero's active starting artifact directly in the artifact select screen.
- Reworked the Empower screen to show upgrade tracks for heroes more clearly.
- Starting decks can now be viewed for a hero (by role) in the Empower screen.
Audio
- Fixed overlapping audio in Cause and Effect, caused by a large number of card upgrades.
