Patch 0.1.0.199 is now available for download!
This patch introduces a noticeable change to the dropping of Insight; when you are “killed”, there is now a grace period which starts when you stand up. If you are felled again during the grace period you will not lose your insight again and the previously dropped insight will remain where it was first dropped. The grace period is signified by this effect on your character:
Another major adjustment in this patch is a reduction of the stagger/poise cooldown values for enemies. They have been modified across the board for regular (smaller/weaker) enemies, which were previously set unappropriately high. The heavier “elite-type” enemies maintain high values.
Patch Notes:
General and Balance Fixes:
- Decreased poise/stagger cooldown on smaller enemies.
- Introduced a grace period that prevents "undeserved" chain-dropping of Insight.
- Decreased the HP of Black Knight.
- Decreased the damage of Dark Faith Crossbow enemies' attacks.
Writing Fixes:
- Bogmother knights now correctly address you as a Redfin.
- Fix repeat-hand-ins to Speculus in the Boglink Monks quest.
- Fixes to Brownkloake and Dirtclaat's dialogue options.
Level Design Fixes:
- Made Redcrown Cavalry drop a key to avoid confusion regarding the barricaded door.
- Made sure Handmaiden locations are not activated when falling past them.
- Minor fixes for some hidden walls, NPC positioning and enemy spawner configurations.
Other changes which are currently cooking and should arrive soon include:
- Igor's Storage - the ability to hand your trusted squire any items that you do not need to carry.
- Revisions and content-additions to Redcrown Woods and Mangrove Pits for added FUN and design-compliance in the early sections of the game.
- Further improvements to connections and related features.
We are naturally investigating and seeking fixes for all the other reported bugs and network issues as well, please keep informing us about problems you encounter - we appreciate your patience as we try to improve stability and performance overall.
