Patch 1.1.2 - Achievement Fixes & Save System Improvements

[p]Hey Hunters![/p][p][/p][p]We’ve pushed a small but important update this week addressing a few issues that many of you helped us identify on Xbox and Steam. Here’s what’s been fixed: [/p][h3]✔ Achievement Fixes[/h3][p]Some platform achievements were not triggering under specific circumstances. These cases should now be resolved, and achievements will properly register when players meet the required conditions.
[/p][h3]✔ Save System Improvements[/h3][p]We’ve adjusted how often the game saves during gameplay.
Relic Hunters Legend will now save less frequently and much faster, improving overall performance and reducing unnecessary interruptions.

We want to give a huge thank you to everyone who reported these issues, sent suggestions, and helped us track down what was happening. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we’re always reading and monitoring everything you send our way.
[/p][p]A special welcome and thank you as well to all the new players who joined us through Game Pass, your support means the world to us, and we’re very happy to have you in the community!

Small spoiler: very soon we’ll be launching our end-of-year events, and players will be able to earn exclusive seasonal items just by playing and celebrating with us. Stay tuned!
[/p][p]Thank you again for all the love and support. 💛
See you in the Galaxy![/p]

Patch 1.1 has come - check out the new Orbs of Transformation

[p][/p][p]
[/p][p]Hunters,

[/p][p]Patch 1.1 has come, and now you can check the new system to expand your builds: the Orbs of Transformation![/p][p][/p][p]These mystical tools were designed to add another layer of item customization and give you more freedom to experiment with different paths for your gear. The inspiration came from mechanics in games like Path of Exile and World of Warcraft, where items could gain unique and unpredictable twists. We wanted to bring that same sense of discovery to Relic Hunters Legend, but in a way that fits our game.[/p][p][/p][h2]Binding Orb[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p] Bound by mechanical rings, this Orb lets you lock one Affix (and on Tier 4 items, sometimes a second one). Once locked, that Affix won’t change when using other Orbs, perfect for protecting a roll you really want to keep.[/p][p][/p][h2]Paradox Orb[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p] Reality fractures with unpredictable results! Using this Orb can lead to unexpected outcomes, sometimes even a Super Affix. However, there’s a catch: the item becomes Unstable, which means it can’t be modified further unless you use a Harmony Orb.[/p][p]

🔒 Important: The Paradox Orb never destroys or breaks your item; it’s all about embracing the risk of unpredictable power.[/p][p]
[/p][h2]Harmony Orb[/h2][p][/p][p] A calming sphere of emerald light, the Harmony Orb restores stability to an item. It will remove Paradox Affixes and bring back any Disabled Affixes, making the item safe to modify again.[/p][p]
[/p][h2]🔍 How to Obtain Them?[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]
  • [p]Drop in the World[/p]
[p]Orbs can be found naturally as you play. For example, the Paradox Orb is a reward from the final level of ADN.

[/p]
  • [p]Justin’s Material Exchange Shop: [/p]
    • [p]Basic Orbs can be purchased with T4 Materials and Memories.

      [/p]
    • [p]Advanced Orbs can be purchased with basic Orbs (like Shifting Orbs).

      [/p]
[p]All this info will also be detailed in the Compendium for easy reference![/p][p][/p][p]Check out more details in our previous Steam Blog
[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][p]Hunters, now you can create new possibilities for item crafting and tweak your builds. We’re looking forward to seeing the strategies you’ll forge with the Orbs of Transformation.[/p][p][/p][p]See you in the galaxy,[/p][p]— The Relic Hunters Team[/p]

Patch 1.1 Preview - New Orbs of Transformation

[p]Hunters,[/p][p][/p][p]We’re excited to share a sneak peek at Patch 1.1, coming later this September! [/p][p][/p][p]We already finished the Dark Mode, and it’s now fully implemented across all screens! Your eyes can finally rest easy while you’re blasting through missions, tinkering with builds, or exploring the galaxy.[/p][p][/p][p]But that’s not all! Patch 1.1 also brings 3 new Orbs of Transformation and updates to the Justin Material Exchange Shop, giving you more ways to get rarer Materials and advanced Orbs.[/p][p][/p]
New Orbs 🪐
[p][/p][h2]Binding Orb [/h2][p][/p][p]Bound by mechanical rings, its power seals what it touches against alteration.
Applying this Orb on an item will lock one Affix, with a small chance of selecting a second Affix on Tier 4 Items.[/p][p][/p][p]A Locked Affix will not be changed when using other Orbs. Use this to Lock in a Super Affix or an Affix that you really want to keep.[/p][p]
[/p][h2]Paradox Orb[/h2][h2] [/h2][p][/p][p]Purple arcs dance across fractured planes, bending reality into unpredictable outcomes. Applying this Orb on an item will have unexpected consequences. Some of them might even be positive.[/p][p]
Warning: the item will become Unstable and will no longer accept any modifications from the Item Workshop or from other Orbs, with the exception of the Harmony Orb, which removes the Unstable state.[/p][p][/p][h2]Harmony Orb[/h2][p][/p][p][/p][p] A sphere of calming emerald-like light, weaving broken matter back into wholeness. Using this Orb on an Unstable item will remove any Paradox Affixes and restore any Disabled Affixes. The item will no longer be Unstable.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Justin Material Exchange Shop changes 💱
[p][/p]
  • [p]Purchase Orbs with T4 Materials and Memories.
    [/p]
  • [p]Convert High-end Materials for other ones (i.e: convert 50x Set Emblems for 25x Augmentation Modules).
    [/p]
  • [p]Trade in a bunch of Shifting Orbs for any other Orb.[/p][p][/p]
[p]Patch 1.1 is offering new tools to take your builds even further. We can’t wait to see the new strategies you’ll bring to the galaxy.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you, as always, for your patience and support. Stay tuned for the full release at the end of September![/p][p][/p][p]Cheers,[/p][p]Relic Hunters Team[/p]
