Nordic Ashes News

Today we bring you an update that acts as a bridge to next week's Beta release of the new realm, Vanaheim. Apart from fixes and some adjustments, 4 new legendary relics have been added!

[h2]New content![/h2]

• We have added 4 new relics to unlock that will grant you great power.
  
• In addition, the Yggdrasil Expedition branch has been expanded with two new upgrades suggested by you.
  
• You can now see the damage done by Passive Relics in the constellation.
  
• Also, in the End Game Panel you can now see information about Passive Relics by hovering over them. We will make it accessible with the gamepad in future updates.
  

[h3]Fixes and adjustments[/h3]

• The collision edges of some of Ymir's attacks have been adjusted.
  
• Mama Bat's dash has been adjusted to make it easier to dodge.
  
• Armor power has been reduced from 30% to 15%. Being a common ability, it was having too much impact on high Ragnarok levels. We will keep an eye for further adjustments.
  
• Shared Pain sometimes didn't work correctly causing less damage than it should when applied to bosses and elites with this ability.
  
• In the End Panel, Passive Relic icons overlapped with other elements when there were many of them. The size is now adjusted so that this does not happen.
  
• Fixed a bug that allowed you to press upgrade and reroll at the same time in the constellation.
  
• Fixed an issue that was making some sounds to crack.
  

We are looking forward to releasing the new Realm Vanaheim, you are going to love the new stuff that comes with it ;)

Hello!
In today’s patch we have many cool updates! New Ragnarok, in-game tutorials, and a ton of your suggestions implemented! Here they are:

[h2]Svartalfheim Ragnarok[/h2]
It was time for Svartalfheim Ragnarok to arrive, so here it is! Challenge yourself with stronger enemies and bosses and conquer the dwarves’ realm!


[h2]Tutorials[/h2]
We have implemented simple but effective tutorials so some concepts like how Ascensions work are crystal clear. We hope these are useful for new players.

[h2]Community Suggestions[/h2]
We’ve been reading all of your comments. Here are many of the ideas you’ve suggested, whether they are QoL, balancing related or just minor improvements we hope we did a good job implementing them. There are still a few to develop, and they will be added in future updates.

• Olga’s Blessing third piece was hard to find as it was Epic tier. It is now a Rare item, so you should find all the pieces faster.
  
• Chest, potion, artifact and Ascension Crystal info is now shown in the Glossary.
  
• Shuffling Helga’s Tarot Deck will now be influenced by Cooldown.
  
• Sacrifice Shrine has been reworked. Enemy souls will enter the shrine if you defeat them by YOU being INSIDE of the circled area. So, it won’t matter if enemies are inside or outside the area. The only condition is that YOU are inside.
  
• The wave bar won’t disappear anymore during mid-boss fights.
  
• Thyra’s ulti is now smarter. It will now move and search for the closest enemies.
  
• Now you will be able to hide requirements in the achievements, leaf and glossary panels with the same keys/buttons.
  
• Gnöki will finally smile at you when you reach level 5 of Happiness.
  
• Weapons are now displayed from more to less DMG dealt in the end panel.
  
• The “+” next to a relic on the end panel will now mean the number of resets instead the number of ascensions, as you will also see the icon of an Ascension Crystal next to the name of the relic.
  
• Talkor’s THE coin ascension description has been updated.
  
• The Yggdrasil upgrade “99+” description has been updated.
  
• The number of times you can revive is now better displayed, next to the character’s heart containers.
  
• Crystal Soul relic has been reworked. It will double the number of red hearts and turn them into blue ones and will also exceed the limit of 14 hearts if that’s the case.
  
• Many of you were asking that after unlocking higher difficulty levels, to be able to play them right after a new realm is released. So now, if you have already conquered Expert in other realms, you will be able to play Expert on new realms without having to play Normal and then Hard. The same happens with Ragnarok levels. However, in order to play Ragnarok, you must have conquered Expert on that realm.
  

[h3]Bug fixes[/h3]

• Axeldör’s hammer wasn’t working properly.
  
• Amaranth’s xp earning was bugged, so the xp you earned with Ivy was insanely high. It has now been fixed to its normal amount. It also was bugged in the opposite way, not gathering all the xp it should in some cases.
  
• Electric Rune was only firing 1 projectile.
  
• Axeldör’s axe was only firing 1 lightning bolt.
  
• Thyra’s arrows won’t feel “drunken” anymore when playing at high FPS.
  

We have also been working on improving performance.

That’s all for today’s update. We were planning to release the next realm’s beta next week, but we will need 1 more week to do so. So expect Vanaheim Beta in two weeks from now!
Cheers!

[h3]Welcome our new survivor, Amaranth the Forest Summoner![/h3]
Defy the dark forces with Amaranth and her adorable friends! Her five inseparable familiars (Ivy, Skog, Peasprout, Lingon and Chilli) will fight for her, each in their own way, protecting Amaranth with everything they have.

Amaranth comes with 5 Active Summoning Relics, 1 Ultimate Relic and 6 Passive Relics. A total of 13 new Relics to try (and add to M.I.S.S.I.N.G.’s pool)!

Amaranth has never been too fond of weapons, so she is not that efficient with them, however, she was born to rule, providing a damage boost to all her summons.

Here’s a beautiful Amaranth wallpaper for you! (Gnöki as always sneaking in)



[h3]Fixes and changes[/h3]

• When you get gold from Talkor's ultimate, it can now exceed the maximum limit of 99 or 250 (if you have the Yggdrasil upgrade).
  
• There was a visual bug with life containers in some cases.
  
• The in-game information displayed above the Relics was not being displayed properly in some cases.
  
• Penetration stat in Yggdrasil has been changed to Summons stat.
  

[h3]Knights of the Dark skins[/h3]
This is a friendly reminder that the Knights of the Dark skins for Axeldör, Thyra and Hafgrim are Early Access exclusive. This means they will only be available while Early Access lasts (until nov/dec 2023, we still don’t have a fixed date for the official launch of the game).

If you unlock them before that date, you will be able to keep them forever!

After that, the opportunity to grab them will be gone, as they will become legacy skins.
