Hello Crafters!
How is everyone doing?
New patch is here, bringing some closure to the HEAT! The Desert area is complete with all its challenges and bosses.
The 13th character, Keyra, is joining the roster today! A new mechanic exclusive for the Locksmith, as a new ranged attacker, and some of the most ambitious animations I've done so far for the game among her skills. The Patch also brings new challenges and bosses to fight, as it wraps up the Desert.
Keyra also has her Talent Skills in the Village Systems, which can affect her gameplay. So remember to check which ones work for you the most and make the most out of your build for the Locksmith.
This is also the LAST major update before the 1.0 release of Crafty Survivors! There will be no new content and characters added during Early Access, so the next 2 characters will debut TOGETHER with the full release of the game! Maybe a sneak peek of both at the end of this Patch Note? We shall see at the bottom!
Let's dive into the Patch Notes:
Patch Notes - v0.10.0
New Character
Keyra, the Locksmith
A new character is ready to join the Roster! The Locksmith is here to unlock her path to everyone's hearts!
Keyra is capable of Locking and Unlocking enemies to deal extra damage to them in a small area. She is a ranged character, that throws small keys in the direction aimed, and these projectiles can interact with her skills and a special debuff on enemies.
Most of Keyra's skills need to be activated by her basic attack Key or her special command Grand Key. Depending on the size of the lock, the key required will be different, so choosing the appropriate attack for the skill is necessary. One of her skills requires both keys to activate! Careful positioning and timed activation may be the KEY to success.
Her Grand Key is specially useful to get out of tricky situations. Keyra throws a big key attached to a chain in the direction aimed, that flies until attaching itself to a big lock. The key will vanish if it misses a lock. If attached to a big lock, the skill can be reactivated to pull Keyra towards the skill and activate it, causing damage to enemies in her path and making Keyra invulnerable while flying towards the lock. A way of keeping herself safe!
She also has a special skill that can lock her health bar! It can be tricky to use, but it can turn the tables in battle completely!
Lock your enemies and unlock the path to your victory with the Locksmith!
