PvP Mode Beta Test (Read Carefully)

Hello adventurers! We are working hard on another new game mode, and we need your help!

[h2]Introducing PvP[/h2]
We've added a new PvP mode to the public test branch. In this mode, you can compete with other players to see who gets farther in the tower. The first one to die - loses the match.



[h2]Important Notice[/h2]
After switching to this version, you will lose all your previous saves (there is a big chance that you'll get them back after switching back to 1.18, but it's not 100%).

We need your feedback on PvP.
This mode is still in testing, and your thoughts will be very important for us. Help us improve the PvP experience by sharing your thoughts in the comments or on our Discord server.

To join the beta test, select public_testing_branch - Experimental in the Properties > Betas section of Megaloot.



Your thoughts will help us make the game even better.

Here’s what’s new in this update:

    Amon has the following specializations:
    1. Moonlighter

    2. Bloodmoon

    3. Nighthrust


  • Amon’s equipment slots: when you equip a weapon, it is replicated and replica is counted as another equipped weapon.

  • Added Guard and removed Skip.


  • Added chat to Co-op.


  • Reduced total battles per floor from 12 to 6.

  • Doubled enemy gold rewards.

  • Optimized item rarity in the market.

  • Counterattacks can no longer be parried.

  • Gold on kill can now be reforged on any item for any character.


  • Changed Chromalure set effect and Viran specializations.


  • Moved Toxic Redemption to Nighthorn as a passive.


  • Fael now starts with Warrior’s Flask.

  • Jace now starts with Excalibour in his market.


  • Changed Mercenary set effect.


  • Changed Scout set effect.


  • Changed Pursuer specialization.


  • Changed Windwalker specialization.


  • Tyr now starts with 10% Armored Attack.


  • Tyr now starts with a Blackthorn Chestplate in his market and begins with Tears of Iron.
