GENERAL UPDATES

• Increased Perfidy’s accuracy from 75% to 90%
• Switching now subtracts 1 and adds 1 to the ultimate charges to avoid switch exploitation (wherein the user constantly switches to get everyone at full ultimate charge)
• Reduced step distance from 48 to 20 to mitigate skipping frames
• Augments are back — test augments include an HP augment, a heal skill augment, an AGI augment, and a MATK leveller augment
• Augments can now be removed and added via an NPC. Replacing an augment will remove the augment from the wearer and return it to the inventory
• Consumable shop now open again (potions + ethers)

BUG FIXES

• Fixed “immortal slime” bug
• Fixed bug where HP gauge doesn’t appear upon switching out

UI CHANGES

• Status turns text temporarily changed to a lighter colour to promote readability
• Started working on preliminary set of icons (mostly main status effects) — will probably make them slightly bigger

MONSTER UPDATES

CHAPTER ONE BOSS

• Made boss a lot less evasive (hits for bosses will now largely (if not fully) depend on the player’s hit rate, not the boss’ AGI or evasion rate)
• His ultimate skill will no longer proc twice to make Blood Wine viable again
• To make other tanks viable against this boss, his ultimate skill has also been changed to a neutral type. All other boss monsters will most likely also have this trait
• Reduced boss shield wall to 10%
• Reduced the boss’ Shield Wall to 2 uses and Madness to 3 uses (Madness HP recovery decreases each time, but ATK also increases each time)
• More changes to his AI
• Removed his life steal
• Changed his basic attack so that it also procs a bleed effect (so he does not look so miserable if the battle stalls long enough to reach this point)

BUDPER

• Battering Ram will now only strike once
• Reduced “Charge” to 10 uses (from 15)

SLIMELIAR

• Gave Slimeliar Earth an ultimate move — “Knockback X” — though it will be weaker than the other Slimeliar forms’ ultimates to balance Slimeliar with the other DPS (60 base damage)
• Removed skill costs to Transmutate, instead gave it a -5 HP “penalty” as a small HP penalty aligns more with the skill lore, Slimeliar’s lore, and Slimeliar’s passives/play style (i.e. switching constantly to absorb moves, thus negating the -5 HP penalty)
