[v0.3] New Guild Members and Various Tweaks

 

Hello again everyone, today I bring a new patch to the game. Sadly, this patch doesn't bring new zones, because I'm still working on them, but it implements new content and also fixes some issues, alongside tweaking other things.

Sounds too cryptic? Then let me break down what is coming this update.

Skills Rebalance

A number of skills got rebalance tweaks, including some that had target size requirement for skill to affect them entirelly.

One of them is Skunk Spray, which no longer causes fear on monsters bigger than the caster, beside the Stench debuff still can cause.

Skills like Meteor and Rock Throw now can interrupt foes it hit, and also buffed Heal skill, making it heal more, and reduced its cooldown to 15 seconds (Yes, you no longer need to regret spending points on it).

Tweaks

The Corrosion debuff was too overkill on previous update, so I nerfed its damage.

The debuff itself is still dangerous, but is no longer a death sentence if you didn't got a healer or potions with you.

The Restoring Sound skill from Asphalion's combat technique, will now adjust distance of effect based on attacked monster size, so bigger monsters no longer means that your melee combatants will not be healed.

Buff Time and Description Implemented

You've been waiting for long for this, right?

Over the character status bar on the bottom of the screen will now show icons of buffs and debuffs your guild members have.

Those buffs will have their description shown when you pass the mouse over, and they will begin to disappear once they have less than 5 seconds left of effect.

At least now you will know what the buffs and debuffs do.

New Guild Member: Wolfgang

Wolfgang himself is a fisherman, and he will let your guild do what he does best: fish.

He also brings skills to allow you to place a bonfire, so you can cook the fishs he caught, and provide you with food that gives buffs to guild members that eat it.

Do notice that food will only have one effect of the type active at once, so don't go spamming food on your characters thinking that they will stack, because they will not. Also, better not waste inventory space.

Other than fishing, Wolfgang has quite a skill with Daggers, and will be willing to use his in the name of the guild that bothers him on his fishing.

New Guild Member: Samson

Before you ask, he's not related to twitter, and neither the Doge Coin.

I saw on YouTube a user with a bizarre avatar of a Buff Doge punching the screen, and that gave me the idea of adding it as a guild member.

As you can imagine, this guild member is buff, and I REALLY mean buff.

He's probably the toughest guy in the Gavea Kingdom, and is currently looking for someone to challenge him.

Will you find him and offer him the challenge he wants?

No More Movement when Dropping and Item or Removing Skill Icon

Exactly as I said above. Clicking to drop an item on the ground or to remove a skill you're quickslotting will no longer make your characters move or interact/attack something.

That's such a QoL change that is really something, and probably improves gameplay experience by 1000%. You guys can tell me that.

You're asking about the new monsters? Go find them yourself.
