Patch Notes: v0.6.18

Fire in the hole!


Hello Survivors,
Have you ever felt frustrated when multiple hostile NPCs appeared at once while playing Dysterra? To address this, our development team has completely revamped the grenades. We’ve added new gimmicks to grenades and smoke bombs. Additionally, all NPCs, except a few, will now take 3 times more damage from grenades. If you have ideas to improve the game further, please let us know on our Discord server!

New Feature: Smoke Grenade Vision Obstruction

πŸ‘€ Smoke grenades will now obstruct the vision of not only players but also NPCs (excluding bosses)! However, be careful; getting too close will still make you noticeable and subject to attacks.


New Throwable: Impact Grenade Added

πŸ’₯ Unlike grenades that detonate after a set time, a new grenade has been added that explodes immediately upon contact with something.
- Damage: 80
- Range: 3 ~ 6m
- Stacks up to 40 grenades per inventory cell.
- Even if it doesn't make contact with anything, it will explode after a certain time.
- It can be crafted at Workbench Level 2 or higher.
- Materials required:
  • 2 Advanced Metals
  • 2 Explosives


New Throwable: Radioactive Smoke Grenade Added

☠️ A new smoke grenade that emits deadly radioactive smoke has been added.
- Radiation Level: 40
- In PvP, use radiation-resistant armor to protect yourself!
- Stacks up to 40 grenades per inventory cell.
- It is lethal to Hyena soldiers and wildlife.
- It deals a small amount of damage upon contact with the smoke and continuously decreases the NPC's health for 200 seconds.
- It can be crafted at Workbench Level 2 or higher.
- Materials required:
  • 2 Advanced Metals
  • 5 Anti-Radiation Capsules
  • 2 Explosives


Balance Change: Grenade Damage to NPCs Increased by 3 Times

πŸ’₯ Throwing grenades at enemies can be a more advantageous choice than shooting.

πŸ› Fixed an error where metal was not included in the grenade crafting recipe.
