Greetings, Wastelanders! This very first patch brings to the game a much requested feature: an improved UI. In addition, we’d like to share with you some insights of what to expect in the next patches.
Improved Initiative UI
Since the release of INSIDIA we’ve collected hundreds of extremely useful feedbacks. It seems that the most crucial issue was a lack of clarity with the initiative order. For this reason we’ve completely rehauled that portion of our UI.
The initiative bar has been moved from its old location to the side of the screen and it is now considerably bigger. During the Tactical Mode you will be able to quickly see which champion will act first, while during the Resolution Mode the initiative bar will rearrange itself to display the actual order in which champions will take their actions. This new UI will also highlight when an ability triggers in response to another event.
Speaking of triggers, we’ve also added new in-game markers. Now you will be able to swiftly spot which champion is ready to perform a reaction skill or is casting\channeling an attack and how long it will take.
In development: Kowalski, the Steam Knight
Very SOON(™), a new Tank will join the battlefield: Kowalski, the Steam Knight! This ironclad warrior can mitigate incoming damage thanks to his armor and protect allies by redirecting attacks on himself. He can perform piercing strikes with his lance and immediately return to guard stance after dealing a killing blow. Finally, with his ultimate Kowalski is able to knock away multiple targets at once!
