Bug Fixes
- Optimized several issues that could cause combat to freeze.
- Fixed an issue where Classic Mode could drop Universal Patches.
- Fixed an issue where Mara Serpent Mother Staff Technique was classified as Five Poison; it should be classified as Universal.
- Fixed a misleading description in Drunken Fist: "After each hit lands..." ——> "After an attack hits..." (i.e., can be doubled by Cloud Heart Sword Jade).
- Fixed missing values in the Counter-Shock Headdress description.
- Fixed an inconsistency between Burning Wood Saber's description and function: "increases this hit's damage by +160..." ——> "increases this move's damage by +160...". This June 25 update significantly improves the gameplay experience, adding Steam Deck gamepad support, reworking multiple pieces of equipment such as Tai Chi and Warm Jade Medicine Box, uniformly adjusting cooldowns for all items, balancing offensive and defensive values, while also fixing combat freezes, text description errors, and many other issues, striving to perfect every hero's adventure.
