  • Fixed a crash which could happen when pressing the “-” key in specific moments during the Rolling Steel mission.
  • Tweaked the matchmaking values to avoid players joining too close to the end of the Rolling Steel mission.
Dev Note: This is to limit the chance of joining an already ongoing mission, without the ability to affect the success of it due to the timer already being close to expiring.

  • Fixed an issue where the shoulder area of the “Kinetic Witch’s Redemption Raiment” upper body cosmetic could look deformed on female characters.
[h2]Known Issues[/h2]
  • The Game Can Crash When Switching Between Fullscreen and Windowed Mode with FSR 3.1 Frame Generation Turned On
    • FSR 3.1 Frame generation is unstable when used in combination with exclusive Fullscreen Screen. Specifically switching between screen modes is prone to crashing.
    • We recommend using Borderless Fullscreen.
  • Penances Shown As Not Completed
    • While migrating to the new Itemization system, there is a chance for a visual bug to occur where players with a lot of progression on their weapons might not see their Penances displayed as complete. This is only a visual issue which might occur when opening the Penances menu for the first time. Closing and opening the UI again will update it properly.
  • Misaligned Weapon Skins in the Penance Preview Squares
    • There are some weapon skin rewards in the penance previews that are misaligned or don’t fit in the square.
  • Mastery Level Value is Missing in The Marks Swap Screen
    • When in the Marks swap screen, the Mastery level value required to obtain locked Marks may fail to be correctly displayed.
    • The issue is only visual, and the locked Marks will be correctly available upon reaching the required Mastery level in the weapon family.
  • Incorrect Information in the Sacrifice Weapon Screen Tooltip
    • The tooltip in Sacrifice Weapon screen incorrectly states that only Anointed (blue) rarity weapons (or higher) are able to be sacrificed.
    • The issue is only in the tooltip text, as the minimum rarity level required for the Sacrifice procedure is Redeemed (green).
  • Incorrect Rounding of Weapon Stats
    • On uncommon occasions when looking at a weapon card, the total value of the potential stats distribution shown might add up to 1% higher or lower than the maximum (380).
    • This is a rounding issue, however the actual stats total will always effectively be 380 for all weapons.
  • Auspex Tooltip in Rolling Steel Localization Issue
    • The “Move” text in the HUD tooltip when using an Auspex for the new hacking minigame in the Rolling Steel will appear localised in English but is missing in other languages.
  • Zealots are Unable to Purchase Recon Lasgun from Brunt’s Armoury
    • Zealots are currently unable to purchase Recon Lasguns from Brunt’s Armoury.
  • Warp Unbound Having Inconsistent Activations (Added after original post):
    • The "Warp Unbound" Psyker talent is not working correctly when using the Electokinetic and Inferno staves, as a Perils of the Warp explosion may still be atriggered while the talent is active.
  • "Kinetic Flayer" Psyker Talent (Added after original post)
    • The "Kinetic Flayer" Psyker talent is not working correctly as it can still be triggered by enemies that are not Specialist, Elites or Monstrosities."

    • These penances were accidentally included in this release and was not supposed to be included, we will remove them in 1.5.2.
Dev Note: Flash used to be the working name for Operations and this two penances are two old test penances that flew under the radar, we’re sorry for any confusion stemming from this.
