Patch Notes - Version 0.8.57278

We are currently hard at work on two major priorities:

• Fixing desync issues in multiplayer

• Implementing mid-run saves

In the meantime, this patch includes this list of fixes and balance changes.

Important: Crossplay compatiblity is temporarily disabled. Use the "Crossplay" Beta branch to stay on the old patch.

Balancing

• Ruadh is now unlocked after defeating the Banshee.

• Wallace’s Flamberge sword now cost 3 Dragonstones instead of 9.

• More Statue Region rewards, and increased quantity.

• Bosses’ Block Breaking attacks can now be parried.

• The “Distant Cloaks” event now reduces the Threat Level by 2, compensating for the Threat gained by advancing on the map.

• The “A Distraction” event now costs coins instead of Dragonstones.
