Ortharion : The Last Battle News

le problème de mise à jour est résolu, la mise à jour 0.4 est maintenant public !

Des mises à jours arriveront prochainement, avec des mises à jour de bug ainsi qu'amélioration de qualité de vie avec un système des recherches

There are still improvements to be made, especially concerning the arena bosses and legendary bosses of the campaign, these improvements will come as 0.4 progresses as well as during season 2, which will normally start on November 15.

• Adding a very large number of talents.
  
• 3 “doors” (or ritual to activate to be teleported) are present in the game, 2 in the guild, 1 elsewhere. To open them, you will need a certain number of elements that have been added in-game, visible from your map completion interface, knowing that the content is still being created, the elements are not all present and the doors cannot be opened yet.
  
• You can now merge 3 gems together to receive a higher quality one.
  
• Your characters in season mode will switch to off-season mode, your off-season accounts will now be merged and the season mode will start again only for season 2.
  
• You have new bonuses by increasing the difficulty level of the game.
  
• Added new powers for equipment.
  
• Added 4 new improvements on the guild improvement (linked to the account and unlockable with the currency recoverable in the challenge tower)
  
• Added 10 new statistics, which have been added to several places in the game (talent, equipment, skills).
  

• Skills now gain rank thanks to honor points, which you get in the challenges of the challenge tower.
  
• In the challenge tower, on the waves of monsters, killing all the monsters in the current wave starts the next wave.
  
• Enhancement skills that can be cast automatically no longer use an animation.
  
• Change to the item sorting system, the best items are placed first, regardless of their rarity.
  
• Skills that can be cast automatically no longer have an animation for their launch and when automatic activation is enabled, you can now set how many seconds you want your skill to be used.
  
• The item comparison system to know if you are gaining in robustness has been removed, in fact the goal being to specialize, rather than looking for % of stats, often allows you to improve your damage, so I preferred to remove this system which diverted from the right way to play: look at the stats of your equipment and choose how you want to play.
  
• It is no longer possible to open the difficulty selection panel during a mission, so as not to change chest or boss rewards along the way.
  
• Visual improvement of several areas.
  
• Learned skills are put directly in the action bar.
  
• The description of talents that gain stats that are linked to skills make the skills visible on another infobox, for example +3% damage on targets suffering burn, or +5% chance to activate Ninja every 50 meters traveled.
  
• Two new advancement quests are available: “Buy a skill from the skill book” and “Guild improvement”.
  

• There is no longer a statistic for out-of-combat regeneration.
  
• Ortharion fragments gain 2 talent points instead of 1.
  
• You recover gold from each monster killed, as well as from chests.
  
• The chances of having an item on a monster go from 30% to 20%.
  
• The chance of having a consumable item (which concerns potions, item upgrades, keys to the challenge tower) goes from 30% to 18%.
  
• Epic consumables go from 8% to 4% chance of loot.
  
• Several areas of the game have been redone to be done without needing to use the dash.
  
• Guild improvement: The level of the improvements to a maximum level of 20.
  
• The rank 4 advancement quest “Map exploration” for having completed a zone at 100% is now rank 2, gives less experience and gives 3 rare scrolls instead of 3 epic armor.
  
• By moving or using the revelation zones, you discover a larger part of the map.
  
• The area quests do not require as objectives to kill elites before level 5, because the chances of finding them are greatly reduced.
  
• Quest Rank 5 reward gives choices a divine weapon, in addition to giving a divine weapon and 3 divine armors.
  

Enemies and bosses

• Several bosses have changed location and rarity, the goal being to have 1 legendary boss on each large area and then only secondary bosses.
  
• The arena now has epic bosses at the start, instead of rare.
  
• The secondary bosses in the areas are now random and more powerful than before.
  
• The bosses have 30% more health.

• The minimum level of the monsters during the wave of monsters is that of the player.
  

Skills

• Most damage reduction and damage bonus skills have smaller level increases, some skills that were already nerfed have not been touched, it is a matter of balancing the others.
  
• Weakening Debuff (all classes): reduces the opponent's damage from -1.2% to -3% per stack.
  
• The debuffs all last 6 seconds, some had 5 or 4 seconds.

• The bonus level thanks to consumables goes to +10 at most, this is retroactive, so your items with an item level higher than 10 will now have a bonus level of +10.

• Talent: Blocking talents go from 0.4% per point to 1% per point.

• Set bonus text information is correctly visible at the top of your action bar.
  
• Fixed a visual effect on a legendary dagger that could slightly reduce the number of FPS.
  
• It is no longer possible to open the gem management interface on equipment present in the improvement interface (crafting), avoiding a bug to have infinite gems.
