Pet Rebalance & Shard Shop Prep | v5.0.92
Hi everyone! This update brings a pet tier rebalance finally, a big visual polish pass and a batch of fixes.
This update also contains some prep work for the new unreleased "shard shop". More info coming soon!
Pet Rebalance
Tier bonus: every tier now permanently adds +10% to a pet's boost (was +20%), so Tier 1 = +10%, Tier 3 = +30% and Tier 5 = +50%. Tiered pets will show lower boosts and Power Ratings than before.
Beyond Level 100: Tier 5 pets now keep getting stronger past Level 100, with no cap. Each extra level adds a small bonus that grows more slowly the higher you go.
The Pets screen and the Home info pages now explain tiers properly, including a new "Beyond Level 100" section in Pet leveling, in every language.
Fixes
Pets you first unlocked through Pet Fusion or by importing a Collectable now also give you their Tamed item (for example Tamed Slime) in your Steam inventory. Any missing ones arrive automatically the next time you launch the game.
If using a Hatch Core ever added nothing to your egg, that Hatch Core is now returned to you, as the game promised.
The progress bar at the top of the Achievements and Challenges menus no longer shows a stuck 80%, and the completed-achievements count no longer flickers after each sync.
The rarity names in the pet Filters pop-up are bigger and easier to read.
Under the hood: lots of server and stability work, so saves, rewards and Steam item deliveries are more reliable, and the game uses less memory.
Thanks for playing and for every bug report. Keep clicking!
