the last big update before transitioning to the early access version
##Starting Culture/Class/Gods##
Qamar reworked to teleport on stand still, and deal lines of astral damage on teleport
Priest now sports a better-looking robe and a Crest
Druid reworked, now summons 2 Boars on entrance (power up when allies die), 3 Serpents on prayer, and 1 Fleshfly (5 hp, fast, Doom hit) on stand still
Ashem's Grace now also retaliates with 3 Astral damage on being attacked per duration
##Powers##
Parafrost reworked, now freezes you and heals on stand still (if enemies live), grants armor per duration of freeze, immunizes you to damage from freeze
Warrior of the mind changed to "on adjacent attack" - now applies 1 Repulsion per level
Electromancy now triggers on step instead of stand still
Blademaster removed, Focus reworked as "Technique" and also grants accuracy / extra attacks on initial attack (if two-handing)
Rampage reworked as "Barbarism," now grants bonus hit and armor for each empty armor slot
Assassin reworked as "Agility," now grants extra attacks on dodge
Vinakinesis now also applies entangle on-hit
##Prestige Classes##
Executioner now works correctly (only two-handing, gives armor) and now requires adjacent attack for bonus damage TEST THIS
Added:
Void Mage
Samnite
Arch-Magus
Angiok
Sahasi
Kashra
##Items##
Some cosmetic updates
Rat Crown changed to Rat Banner (to be in line with other summoning "weapons")
The poison / blood knives now deal scaling damage based on associated effect duration on target
Blight gauntlets are now like emerald / bone -> applies Doom on >50 physical damage
Mindsaber is now AoE
Added:
Acid Knife
Diskos
Vile Staff
##Enemies##
Continuous summoners changed to summoning a bunch of allies on entrance (Moroid Zealots, Astropedes, Red Imps) as the constant summoning could still cause a locked game state, will eventually find a better solution
Death Knight now AoE
Added:
Ruk
Ruk-Thrall
Keliot
Acroserpent
Tupilaq
IcePriest
Agarithum
Agarite
Cave Worm
Brungle
Tethic Knight
Gibbous Mouth
Fey Partisan
*A lot of these enemies are bosses, paired with an accompanying "minion" that will appear as an enemy in the next tier, similar to the Burrow King / Rat-Man Phalangite, I like the semi-narrative continuity of this
Agarithum / Agarites / Violet Demons have a new "Absorb Time" trait
Tupilaq has "Crushing Frost"
Keliot has the Vile Staff ability
##General##
Willpower now adds a 1% chance per game turn to remove each negative effect from you
Normalized special Hits (such as from Magus, Pugilism, Guard etc) to always use main-hand
Normalized "Extra attacks" to always use main-hand, added text in relevant traits
Corrosion now removes more Block, and no longer lowers Hit
Ocean tiles on the world map are now only visible behind you
Added a title background and poem generator
Tried to make the hotkey indicators more obvious (1: -> [1])
Death screen now lists equipment names / power names + levels
##Usability##
Player attributes can now be viewed on mouse-over, like all other units
Off-hand weapons now have their icon held in the other hand
"Enemies at hand" text should now appear above inventory popups
Alt-tabbing and shift-tabbing (for steam / changing windows) should no longer trigger the TAB auto-move actions
"Restore Defaults" removed (this is only something that is really useful when more involved settings are added, like key rebinding)
