Wizard As promised, this update contains large passes for the remaining 4 classes. When approaching Wizard we were generally happy with the number of viable strategies Wizard had, so we focussed on bringing up the power of those lagging behind and reducing that of the outliers.

Warrior When approaching Warrior we came to realise there was quite a lot of work to do. Many of the Talent Packages felt subpar, attempting to create win conditions that would never really pay off. A lot of these packages just got in the way of the viable and fun ways to play Warrior, so we've doubled down on support for Throwing Weapons, defensive builds and size adding a ton more synergies. We've also added a few new tools to the Warrior toolbox.

Bandit Generally speaking we're happy with where Bandit fell after the most recent changes to the Shop system. Instead of fixing what isn't broken, we've stuck to moving a few gameplay elements around and introduced some new support for Ability win conditions to help bring those in line with other, more prevalent strategies.

Alchemist This was the most experimental class in Talented... I'll be doing a deeper dive into what we're happy and unhappy with in a future post, but needless to say Alchemist has been devisive. We're aware of the mixed feelings about limited resources and how Forage/Cultivate can feel like useless Talents in the late game but we've opted to stick with our original vision for the class and learn from it. We're still confident in the crafting mechanic and we're much happier with Runes after the rework last update so we still think there's a lot worth coming back to the class for.

Having said that we're still quite a bit we want to iterate on before releasing him into the wild. Many of the Potion Abilities felt weak and lots of the 3rd/4th ingredient options felt overly complex. We also didn't feel Throwing Weapons had enough support to be a viable win condition.

Performance We've made tremendous progress with performance just in time for our full release. To help us benchmark we added a new development tool that adds every single Talent (including every Talent Package at Bonus Package level!) and a random set of Abilities to the player character. Then we also added every single enemy bonus. During internal tests we were unable to crash the game and saw framerate improvements of 5-10x after our changes.

• Added a maximum cap to how many Attacks can be on screen (this is extremely large and will only come into effect when framerate drops very low)
  
• Elemental Sprites now correctly respect the Attack Per Frame Cap
  
• Added a cap to how many Game Events can resolve in a frame (the rest will happen in the next, hopefully shorter, frame)
  
• Added a minimum time between screenshake events
  
• Added a minimum time between enemy hit glows
  
• Magic Missiles, Icicles and Roll the Bones can now only be used again once the ability has completed
  
• Added 0.1s Cast Times to non-projectile Abilities. Increased the Cast Times of Projectile Abilities to 0.25s (with the exception of Axe Toss)
  
• Added a cap to how many on-hit events can execute in a single frame
  

Note: Although some of these changes do have an affect on gameplay, you will only see those come into effect in extremely cases. For example in our experience only Wizard and Alchemist can ever hit the cap on On Hit Events (usually due to the same Status Effect attempting to be applied multiple times).

Having said that we will be on the lookout for bugs!

Quality of Life

• Added a minimum Bonus Experience of 100 (effectively 10 days survived) to Challenges no matter how short they are
  
• Metallic Portals now have a visual Shield that is removed when the effect is removed
  
• Added a description for the affect of bonus talent packages
  

Of course we don't expect the game to be perfect, we'll be keeping a close eye on the feedback as usual and will be releasing minor patches as we go. We've done our absolute best to fix all of the major issues we knew about, but roguelikes always come with surprises! As always...

Stay Talented

Greetings Talented Gamers!

Ever wondered how you're supposed to know what the different coloured Elites actually do? Or what is inside a Talent Package? Well.. until now you didn't really have any way to!

The Talented Compendium

It's finally here, and within its pages contains all of the information you seek... You can access the Compendium from the Pause Menu any time you like!



Killing Enemies adds their entry into the Compendium, allowing you to see their Health, Speed and Behaviour whenever you want.



Of course, you can fill your Compendium with all of the Talents you've learnt. This can be particularly useful when deciding between Talent Packages.

Note: discovering a Talent Package adds all entries to the Compendium, even if you don't learn all of the Talents.



One of the questions I've answered endless times on Discord is what each of the Elite Types do! Now you can see for yourself (you'll have to kill one first of course!).



With the introduction of Rare, Epic and Legendary Curses (formerly known as Enemy Bonuses) for Endless Mode it only felt right to include the in the Compendium. As long as they appear in a run, they're your to keep - getting all of them might require a few Endless Runs though!



Each Class has their own pool of Portals, enter them all and fill this page!

Book Worm



For those completionists out there, one of our final Achievement additions will be a set of Achievements requiring you to fill the Compendium. While this might sound daunting at first, experienced players know that with a seriously good run you can learn most of the Talents the Class has!



So there it is, all of the information at your fingertips ready for the 1.0 release. Now you can be a true Talented know-it-all. As a few people have requested the Compendium will begin empty (even for long time players), we've enjoyed filling it back up and don't think it takes *that* long to do, so hopefully you'll feel the same!

Next time we'll be diving into some Class Overhauls coming next update - get your feedback ready and...

Stay Talented

Greetings Talented Gamers!

We've been working on the final 12 Challenges coming to Talented in our 1.0 update. These are already available on our Community Beta Branch so if you'd like to help us bring them up to scratch ready for the big release we'd really appreciate it!

Not-so-big Bosses

Overally reception to our Boss Fights was positive and we really enjoyed making them - so we've decided to add another 6 (1 per Class).

These are intended to be quite a bit easier than the ones we added in 0.14, unlocking at Mastery 10. They showcase some of our early game enemies, but easier doesn't mean trivial!



Hold back the Crawley as he jumps between lanes in the Bandit Challenge



Use Magic Bolt to farm plenty of Ability Power and take down our tankiest (and slowest) boss yet as Alchemist

Winding Path

We're also adding a couple of Challenges that require you to reach win conditions on the Talent Tree.



In the Wizard's Long Strange Trip Challenge you will need to reach a Portal without running out of Talent Points. You'll start at Level 10 and you'll need to navigate the unique Talent Pool to make it all the way to the top without any Experience from Combat.

The Bandit will also be getting a Challenge like this, but instead of getting to a Portal you'll need to make 1 million gold!

Other fun stuff!

...and there's a handful of other ones coming too... How is your memory? It'll be put to test in the Archer's Ed Says Challenge!



Ever wanted to find out what it feels like to have tons of legendaries in a single run? The Legend Has It Challenge has you covered!



And of course there's still more to come!



The real question is, will you be beating all 60 Challenges? No surprises there will be an Achievement for doing it! Until next time...

Stay Talented

Greetings Talented Gamers!

We hope you're enjoying all the endless fun of the 0.15 update, while there's still some things to improve we're generally really happy with how Endless Mode, the Archer and Summoner Balance Pass and all of our other feature work landed. Make sure you keep the feedback rolling in, as we are listening!

With that said... It's time to announce something that we all knew was coming!

1.0 is Coming...

What a journey it has been, when we first moved to Steam Early Access:

• We only had 4 playable Classes (Archer, Wizard, Warrior and Summoner)
  
• There were no Legendary Talents
  
• There were no Challenges
  
• There was no Gamepad Support
  
• There was no Eternal Nightmare of Endless Mode
  
• Classes were lucky to have 20 different Talents to their name (now they have over 60 each!)
  
• Talent Packages were automatically added to the tree and you could only have 2 per run
  

Not to mention the countless balancing, tweaking, synergising, bug fixing - all with lots of help from our wonderful community!

But... Let's not get too sentimental, there's still more Talented to be made!



One Final Task

Of course! There's two Challenge slots still to be filled for each Class and there should be a good mix of easier and particularly tough Challenges coming.

Challenges mean rewards, so you can expect to add the final few Skins to your wardrobe soon... but where will your Legendary Talents go...?

The Talented Compendium

This feature will catalogue every single gameplay elements in the entire game, accessable whenever you want it! Of course you'll have to fill it in yourself by discovering new Talents and killing Enemies.

At long last, you will be able to look up which Talents are inside each Talent Package, which Enemies do what, what the Elite Traits do and more!

Better yet we'll be adding Achievements for filling the Compendium so there will be a collectathon for new and experienced players.

Crashes...

We know crashes have been a particular pain point in 0.15 now the rails are completely off and you can get 10 Talent Packages worth of goodies!

While we think it's extremely unlikely we can account for every single crazy combo and every single piece of hardware - there's still more we can do to improve performance. We'll be doing another deep dive on that before our 1.0 release.

Balance Passes

Last update you will have noticed a huge number of changes to Archer and Summoner - even including some new Talents and Abilities.

With this update we'll be passing a fine-tooth comb over the other 4, doing our best to maximise the number of viable win conditions and ensuring each Talent Package has a place in the combat system.

...And The Rest

As usual we'll be on the lookout for those pesky bugs, continuing to improve performance in the craziest of runs and sneaking in some quality of life improvements.

This update will also see a smaller rounds of 8 Achievements as we round off the full set of 160 - hats off to anyone who gets them all!



Once again... Thank you so much for joining us on the crazy ride that has been Talented's development, we hope you stick it out until the end as there's still a few fun surprises in store!
