Chronicon News

Hey everyone!

There was an issue in the previous update which made it so the game sometimes wouldn't launch - this issue should now be fixed. Please let us know if you're still seeing this problem!

We also fixed a few other things while we were at it.

Thanks!

[h2]1.50.1[/h2]

• Added more shorthands for really large numbers.
  
• Items no longer roll enchants/stats that are exclusive to a class that isn't being played, ie no longer getting random Shadow Damage when not playing a Warlock or Ammo enchants when not playing Mechanist.
  
• Fixed some missing text in localizations.
  
• Fix for game not starting properly on Steam sometimes.
  

Hey everyone!

This update is mostly about preparing for the next DLC - The Mechanist.
We have also added full support for German, and there are quite a few tweaks, fixes, and other improvements as well!

We now also support cross-platform cloud saving, so you can take your PC characters to your Steam Deck, for example!

Here are the full notes.

Stay tuned for more!


[h2]1.50.0:[/h2]
Notes:

• This update prepares the base game for the next DLC: The Mechanist.
  
• There are also some tweaks, QoL additions, and fixes for the base game.
  

New Language:

• German.
  

Controls:

• Added support for mouse side buttons.
  

Events:

• Seasonal Events (Christmas, Halloween) are now repeatable each year on the same character.
  
• The Christmas event now runs from Dec 1st to Dec 30th (Was 15th-31st).
  

Enemies & Combat:

• Slightly increased collision boundaries for Goblins so they are less likely to warp through doors.
  
• This also affects the Anomaly Bosses which are Goblins.
  
• Multiplied Dummy health by 100 since you guys keep killing them.
  

Items & Loot:

• Beast Foods drops no longer play the crafting material sound.
  
• Tarot no longer gives you legacy items.
  
• Injectors and launchers now drop from level 50 and up and on Heroic or higher difficulty, where most rare special items & materials start dropping.
  
• Injectors and Launchers now also require you to have access to the Device Slotter (endgame area) before dropping.
  
• Masochist Set (Warlock) weakness stacking is now multiplicative with other sources of weakness, rather than additive.
  

Interface:

• Monster health% display on the endgame interface gets converted to shortened numbers when it starts to get silly.
  
• Same for Largest Damage Dealt in statistics.
  
• Damage and Mana now also shorten to M,B, etc on the quick stat reference in the inventory rather than overlapping when you get high amounts.
  
• Added Ancient Forest loading screen to western expeditions.
  
• Added new DLC button to the menu.
  
• Updated Credits.
  

Performance:

• Some rare stuttering issues should now be fixed.
  
• Audio-related performance issues have been improved.
  
• Combat performance should also be slightly improved in hectic situations.
  

Skills:

• Masteries which increase proc rates multiplicatively should now properly go beyond 100% with Crown of Innate Possibilities, since this makes sense.
  
• Seeds (Warden synergy passive) now bases damage off Razor Tips as the tooltip suggests.
  

Sound:

• Sounds that play super frequently should now lower their volume a bit in the most chaotic instances.
  

Stats:

• Added a new "Parry" stat which works like Evasion. This stat is currently reserved for the upcoming new Class :)
  

Fixes:

• Fixed some text errors in English and French.
  
• Fixed Elixir of Movement Speed giving half the listed amount.
  
• Fixed some starter items being flagged as Legacy items.
  
• Fixed some skills and satellites using incorrect targeting, and targeting things out of range (and therefore being unable to attack them).
  
• Fixed expedition passive "Prowler" not affecting the berserker "Chilled" weaken passive.
  
• Fixed Warlock not being able to roll bleed damage% on Spellbooks.
  
• Fixed Death Knight (Warlock Ultimate) giving 20% instead of 25% Bane skill damage.
  
• Fixed rare crash that could happen when using Shattering Blow as you enter a portal as Berserker.
  
• Fixed crash when using a controller and pausing to exit Korem's final quest end speech.
  
• Fixed Finder's Keep artifact not revealing chests after re-entering a zone.
  
• Fixed issue where Expedition and Artifact progress could snapshot and carry over between HC and SC characters.
  
• Fixed Anomaly League progression also being able to carry over between SC and HC in some circumstances.
  
• Fixed some errors in the base English text which may have lead to older versions of texts being loaded in.
  
• Fixed issue where Storm Fists (Berserker) were only hitting once per second for a quarter damage, rather than 4 times per second.
  
• Possible fix for rare crash from dialogue navigation with controllers.
  
• Possible fix for companions sometimes forgetting special abilities after changing areas.
