[h2]SUMMARY[/h2]
  • Other QoLs
  • Attributes
  • Weapons
  • Other items
  • Perks
  • Omens
  • Buildings
  • Maps & Enemies
  • Corpses
  • Sound
  • Bug Fixes

[h2]OTHER QoLs[/h2]

  • The keybinds dedicated to skills, as well as the ordering of those skills in the skillbar, have been heavily reworked: it allowed to separately bind weapon skills, equipment skills and contextual+perk skills, while also ensuring a more robust positioning of individual skills over the course of a run. This grants a far better control when using hotkeys to cast skills!
Note: as a result of the heavy changes on the actions mapping, we had no choice but to reset all the keybinds.

  • The perk points count will now show “MAX” when the maximum number of perks has been reached.
  • Dialogues in the Oraculum can now be skipped by pressing Escape.
  • Entering the Oraculum when there is no narration is now faster.
  • The options menu now has a scrollbar and is easier to navigate. As a result some settings have been moved around.
  • Tooltips have been added to most of the settings in order to clarify what they do.
  • Added an option to manually force which type of device should be used for inputs (default: Auto).
  • Added an option to display the maximum value of AP (e.g. 7/10 AP), Move and Mana on the main HUD when a hero is selected, as well as on the portraits list (default: OFF).
  • Added an option to always display the AP, Move and Mana values on the portraits list, instead of only when being hovered (default: OFF).
  • Added an option to hide keyword explanations in tooltips (default: OFF)
  • Added an option to show keybinds in the skillbar (default: ON)
  • Added an option to disable the automatic centering of the camera when selecting a unit outside your screen (default: OFF)
  • One can now manually center the camera on the currently selected hero by clicking their portrait in the main HUD, clicking their portrait in the portrait list, and/or using the hotkey dedicated to the selection of that hero a second time.
  • There is also a dedicated keybind created for that if needed (unassigned by default).
  • Added an option to enable camera edge panning (default: ON).
  • Added an option to enable camera edge panning when the mouse is over UI (default: ON).
  • You can now see the range of your defensive buildings directly when hovering them.
  • It is now possible to skip end-of-map cutscenes, after watching them once.
  • The construction limit for a given building/group of buildings (shown in their dedicated tooltips, in construction mode) is now displayed in red when the maximum has been reached.
  • Improved the “Workers” panel in the Commander’s Journal: it has been split into 2 distinct sub-entries, one for the building actions with a worker cost, and the other dedicated to “free” building actions.
  • Removed the right-click behaving like [Escape] in the world map and Oraculum.
  • Streamlined a bit the flow when recruiting a new hero and placing them in the world: the game won’t re-open the Inn popup anymore, and the new recruit will be automatically selected.

[h2]ATTRIBUTES[/h2]

[h3]Momentum[/h3]
  • The bonus damage given by Momentum now caps at +400% (meaning that a Momentum attack will, at most, deal 5 times more damage).
  • New Skill effect, No Momentum: Using a skill with “No Momentum” will not increase the Momentum bonus. No Momentum has been added to the following skills: “Teleportation” (Warp Crystal), “Teleportation scroll” (consumable), “Blink” (perk) and “Warp” (Warp Gate). All other skills count towards the Momentum bonus.

[h3]Stun[/h3]
  • The modified stun chance of skills (Stun chance of the skill + stun attribute, before taking Stun Resistance into account) can now exceed 100%.
For example, if you have a skill with 60% Stun Chance, and 50% in the Stun attribute, you will now have 110% Stun Chance instead of 100%. This means that, when hitting an enemy with 80% stun Resist, you will have a 30% chance of stunning them, versus 20% before.

Please note: The bounds of the Stun attribute itself remain unchanged.
  • Heroes (and ONLY Heroes) will now gain immunity to Stun for 1 Turn after getting stunned.

[h3]Attribute bounds[/h3]
  • Health: 50 Min, 750 Max -> 50 Min, 1000 Max

  • Momentum: 5/8/10 -> 4/6/7

[h3]Equipment[/h3]
  • Mana, Mana Regen and Momentum bonuses have been rebalanced in accordance to the level ups changes.
  • Action Points random affixes are now more scarce on low level items, and slightly more frequent on high level items.
  • Multi-hit random affixes will now only drop on items level 2 or more, with their frequency increasing with item level.

[h3]Traits[/h3]
  • Mana and Mana regen bonuses have been rebalanced in accordance to the level ups changes

1.0 is Coming... Soon!

Hello Heroes!

As you may have noticed, we haven’t released many updates for The Last Spell those past few months. As it turns out, we've been focused on the final update for the game: the 1.0 release!

[h2]EARLY ACCESS COMING TO AN END[/h2]

Since December, we've been focused on finalizing the content for the 1.0 update, along with the console versions, to make sure we're ready for the official release of the game, since we're planning to release the 1.0 version on the same day as the console versions (Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5)!

Thus, since December we’ve been working on making sure everything is working as it should be. And if they are not, making sure they will. From new tutorials, to balancing, to new map and of course to the new monsters coming with it, everything is being tested, re-tested and approved by the QA & dev team.

Full release means also something else will be added. We have seen all of your messages about it, and yes, the Achievements will be available alongside the 1.0 release!

Speaking about the release, The Last Spell is releasing in early 2023, which means SOON! The wait is almost over, and trust us, it will be worth it. We can't wait for you to experience the ending of this story (and yes, it will be painful).

[h2]NEW PRICE[/h2]

Also as detailed in December and since we are getting closer to the release, the price of The Last Spell will be increased next week, on February 1st, to 24,99€/$24,99. You and your friends still have some time to get the game at a lower price, and enjoy the full release soon after!

Nominate The Last Spell for the Labor of Love award!

Hello Heroes!

We hope you're doing well as the holiday season is upon us!

The Annual Steam Awards are here, and we hope you'll consider nominating us in the "Labor of Love" category.

The Last Spell was released on June 3rd 2021, and since then we've been working on the game to add loads of new content and improvements!
Here's a little summary of what we've added since the start of early-access:

The main thing that we wanted to do with the Early-Access was to be able to not only continue to add new content to the game, but we also wanted to collaborate with the players to take their feedback into account and make it even better!

The Last Spell is also currently at -25% off for the Autumn Sales (November 22-29) for those who wish to fight hundreds of monsters during the Nights (good luck to you).

As we get close to the end of Early-Access, we also want to take this opportunity to thank all of our players for supporting us for more than 1,5 years now, on behalf of the whole Ishtar Games team!

We hope you'll vote for The Last Spell in the "Labor of Love" category!
