Today, I came across several gamebreakers that necessitated immediate fixes. Since all the work I've already done can't be held back individually, here is everything that's different moving forward. Please keep in mind that this was all supposed to roll out alongside 7.0, but could not be helped. Two full crashes and a soft lock are fixed in this update.
For those of you lingering at the pre-end game state, Obliterate and Bolt Cutter now break the damage limit and a watcher in the Awoken Veil sells an accessory that does the same for the equipped character.
This build contains an inaccessible version of the endgame events, a roadblock which will be removed in 7.0.0.0.
Due to a large amount of issues in the Snowdrift Village area, the entire location is locked from the worldmap pending either finalization or official scrapping after 7.0 rolls out.
I will likely roll out additional emergency fixes before 7.0, notated by the A.B.C.D format where only D changes. This update, huge as it is, pushed B forward.
Update is available immediately by restarting Steam.
6.10.0.0 [Build #200, Release Date: November 30, 2025]
New:
- A new essence beast is available in the awoken veil! This enemy functions similar to the previous Essence of Essences event, but also drops a new item - Corrupted Essence - which can be exchanged with the nearby Watcher for essences of any type. This boss is available in level 10, 25, and 50 forms. Unlike other Veilspawn, this new boss provides normal boss level EXP and Gold. The level 25 version has triple the drop rate of the level 10, and the level 50 has triple the drop rate of the level 25. The step counter in these locations has been increased from 15 to 50.
- With Forge Notes: Dusk in hand, a forge will become available in the Awoken Veil.
- From the final page of the Essence Box withdraw function, maximum withdraw can be performed without manual inputs.
Fixes:
- Fixed an issue where exiting the 5th Veil Trial would change your Challenge Level from 50 to 40. This did not impact achievement acquisition - only a display bug.
- Fixed the reward from the 5th Veil Trial. You do not need to complete it a second time - the Crafting tab will update automatically.
- Fixed the tooltips for Wind, Shadow, Electric, and Dark flasks.
- Added a new pylon to Nexus Waterway for jumping over the furthest obstacles for if it was missed in the instanced version of Auria.
- Fixed exit tiles that would bring Ruby back to the instanced version of Auria after the fires were put out.
- Fixed Mia's interaction for if Alex already knows both Resurrection and Return Spirit.
- Fixed Mia's house terrain.
Updates & Changes:
- The terrain of the Awoken Veil has been changed. All previous rifts and telepads still exist but have been moved. For current players, upon entering the Veil, you will be put in front of the red telepad back to Ruby's house one time.
- The Candy Bag can now open Small and Large Candy Pouches and inject their contents directly into the Candy Bag without having to open each individual one into the inventory, then deposit them to the bag. There is a printout both before and after the function runs to show the difference in items. There is no prohibitive check for if you are not holding any candy pouches, the ending printout will simply be the same as the starting.
- Additional items added to the Cultist and Sagittarius loot tables.
- Sterling Hilt now sells for 30G.
- Toxic Rift Shard, An'ura Rift Shard, Rift Weapon Parts, Rift Armor Parts, and Time Shard now sell for 10G.
- Sour Candy now sells for 4G.
- An NPC in the Veil now sells Arrowheads, Short Sticks, Blank Tomes, Empty Flasks, and both weapon and armor patterns.
- Bolt Cutter, Reave, and Obliterate can now bypass the damage cap.
- Changed the display when depositing all essences into the box at once.
- Fixed the layering of gold pickups in Veil Trials.
- Relocated the entrance to Mia's house, available in Auria world state 2 after fires are out.
Skill & Mastery Effects:
- In addition to having reduced casting costs relative to their counterparts, II elemental skills now have half piercing and III skills have full piercing. This does not apply to Shocks.
Updates & Changes (DLC):
- The entire Snowdrift area is blocked off pending finalization of Eyes in the Frost. Too many dialogue pieces are broken to leave it partially accessible.
Notes:
- Much of the endgame scenario is currently coded in, but the bugs discovered required this patch to go out ahead of the content drop.
