Patch Notes: 1.3.39: Enlightening the Enlightened
I’m late - I know... sorry! I promised 48hrs after the Dev Blog video went live, however I’m just a touch over that - wanted to ensure everything was smooth when going live. So here we are!
Again, I have to start out by saying thank you to all the loyal players out there - all the messages and reviews - thank you so much! Looking forward to keeping this fun train rolling! Let's dive into the details...
In case you didn’t watch the video, here's what’s big in this patch.
[h3]The Enlightened Card and Artifact expansion![/h3]
Enlightened is the first class to get their Card/Artifact expansion, and this one sees over 20 new cards and 15+ Artifacts to digest! The major goals here was to help increase run variety with more commons, but also to make Echo Wall more of a thing you can lean into. Also, to give Shii a little boost at closing out fights. Some fun stuff in there for helping with those higher HP mobs, and enemies with stacked up Fatigue/Shii.
[h3]Impossible+ Guided Mode[/h3]
This was introduced to help with the overhead of getting started with Impossible+, and also to bring some familiarity to players who are coming from other games of this genre. Basically, the freeform method of Impossible+ has been very well received, however it does have an issue with overloading information at first entry.
Now however, I’ve set up a custom Guided mode, which will allow you to have all the modifiers filled out from Instability 1-30, creating a familiar “ladder” type climb. Of course, with one click of a button you can take your Guided mode over to Custom and tweak a few of the modifiers you either don’t like, or put some in that you prefer to play with.
Overall, the goal is to create an easier entry point for new players dabbling in the Impossible+ game mode. When you’re ready to crush out that 50+ Instability achievement however, you’ll need to dive in and get things setup in a custom mode!
Those are the big features, however there's a number of other things added, on top of a bunch of bugs and text corrections. Most are listed below, but as usual, a few things probably slipped through the cracks!
If you msised the Dev Blog video posted the other day, you can catch it here:

Thanks again to everyone for your support on Vault of the Void! Next up, the Hidden gets a Card/Artifact expansion, on top of a clean up to the Class Overview and a few tweaks to card Mastery.
All for now!
