Asgard's Fall — Viking Survivors News

[h3]Fellow Vikings,[/h3][p]We are already hard at work on the next Major Update, with a projected release in November. This time we scheduled a little more development time so the major update feels major for you too, and not just for us. ːsteammockingː[/p][p][/p][h2]The Crafting System[/h2][p]Today we want to give you a first look at the upcoming Crafting System. At its heart, crafting will let you refine and improve your Warpaints using their hidden Rune Power. Every Warpaint comes with a random amount of Rune Power depending on its rarity, except for Mythics which are so powerful they cannot be modified at all.[/p][p]Rune Power and Pigments (yes, Pigments are back in town and valuable again), along with other ingredients, fuels your ability to modify a Warpaint. Once a Warpaint’s Rune Power is depleted it can no longer be altered, so choose wisely. [/p][p]Modifying offers several options: you can reroll a stat into a completely different one, upgrade an existing stat into a higher tier, or reroll the value of a stat within its current tier. These tools give you a lot of freedom to shape your favorite Warpaints and push your builds in new directions.[/p][p][/p][h3]Here's a screenshot-mockup for better (visual) understanding:[/h3][p](final layout subject to change)[/p][p][/p][p]Hub - Crafting Table[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Crafting System (Menu)[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Until Next Time[/h2][p]Thank you for your patience and your ongoing support.

Known Issues

• Disappearing Warpaints & Warpaint duplication. We potentially fixed the disappearing Warpaints but we still rely on your feedback here. Please report anything related to this issue. We are still working on the Warpaint duplication bug. Thank you for your patience!

Added

• Added a new NPC returning your lost Pigments from before the system rework.
  
• New Warpaint forms added. Mythic and Legendary Warpaints will continue to use the same forms. Epic and Common Warpaints will now drop in smaller forms to compensate for their reduced power. To prevent your current loadouts from being affected, this does not apply retroactively to older Warpaints. More shapes will be added in the future.
  

Changed

• Blood Sacrifice rewards changed. We have changed the way that levels affect the rarity of Warpaints dropped by enemies and chests. The higher the level, the more likely you are to receive legendary or mythical Warpaints and the less likely you are to receive common or epic Warpaints. You can also see the exact chances for each rarity.
  

Fixed

• Potentially fixed a bug that resulted in losing equipped Warpaints. Please report any issues regarding this topic.
  
• Fixed a bug where the unique effect “Fortunes Favor” gave you a random ability at the start of the run instead of a free reroll each level up.
  
• Fixed a bug where the Valhalla mode was not properly reset after a full Blood Sacrifice reset.
  

We’ve heard your feedback and are currently working on transferring your old pigment inventory to the new system so that your progress from before the update is not lost. It will not be exactly the same amount, as the purpose and the pigments themselves have changed, but we are working on a solution that reflects the time you have already invested. We sadly can’t restore any Warpaints from the old system but we are going to implement new ways to make Warpaint farming easier - we apologize for that!

Notes:

Changed

• Boss chests now drop at least 1 legendary Warpaint.
  

Fixed

• Fixed a bug that crashed the game when hovering over a mythic Warpaint.
  
• Fixed a UI related problem that sometimes required multiple attempts to properly select a button when clicking or hovering over it.
  
• Fixed another Warpaint duplication bug.
