The Granite Gladiator & the Guardians


+For a limited time, players will be able to earn the 2025 Spring Event skin: Granite Gladiator, as well as all previous year's Spring Event Skins: Skal Archelon and Spring Guardian.
- The Granite Gladiator skin was made by Natahi4 & Twilightwolf
- The skins have a glowing, bioluminescent layer.
- The skins unlock separate equippable cosmetic overlays: Mossy Covers for Apatosaurus & Velo, as well as Algae Bloom for Archelon. The unlocked overlays can go on any skin of their corresponding species.

[h2]Earning the Skins:[/h2]
+To unlock the skins and their overlays, players need to find and collect golden dinosaur idols scattered around the map.
- Apatosaurus Idols will unlock the Apatosaurus Seasonal Skin
- Archelon Idols will unlock the Archelon Seasonal Skin
- Velociraptor Idols will unlock the Velociraptor Seasonal skin
- Gathering the idols will allow the player to progress through achievements associated with earning the skins.

- Completing the achievement on any server will unlock access to the skin and cosmetics game-wide.



[h2]Idol Collecting Tips![/h2]
  • The idols belonging to land species will only spawn on land randomly anywhere carcasses can spawn.
  • The Idols belonging to aquatic species will only spawn underwater randomly anywhere carcasses can spawn.
  • All Seasonal Skins are now earned by collecting idols scattered around the map and returning them to a matching deity shrine.
  • All skins require gathering 50 idols each. All idols must be gathered on the same server to complete the achievement and unlock the skin, but they can be individually gathered by different creatures or during different lives.
  • Idols show up on the compass when nearby with a color themed for the deity shrine they belong to
  • Turning in an idol will show achievement progress in the top-right corner of the screen
  • You should also be able to view the progress you've made towards unlocking the event skins by viewing the corresponding achievements in the achievements gallery's Limited Time Events page

Blood Rush Bonanza!


[h2]Added New Playable Creature:[/h2]
Kaprosuchus!

The Kaprosuchus is our newest creature that has been added to Beasts of Bermuda! It is a small, semi-aquatic crocodilian that specializes in a swift, fast playstyle. It's a very fast runner and has several tools to help it ambush prey and deal damage quickly.

[h3]Moves and Abilities[/h3]
+The Kaprosuchus' Primary Attack consists of dealing damage with a standard bite attack that inflicts moderate damage. Additionally, the Kaprosuchus can hold Primary Attack to use Bone Snap. Bone snap deals additional damage and applies a crippling, Tendon Tear debuff. The longer the Primary Attack key is held, the more damage is dealt and the longer the Tendon Tear debuff lasts. Be wary, as continuing to hold this ability will actively deplete your ability.
  • While charging a bite, you move and turn slower. This allows you to punish adversaries that face you head-on with this debuff, while making it more difficult to apply to fleeing targets.
  • The Kaprosuchus has the talent Snapping Jaw. This talent increases the duration of the Tendon Tear debuff applied by Bone Snap. It additionally decreases the ability cost, increases the damage multiplier, and reduces the movement penalty associated with charging and using this ability.

+The Kaprosuchus' Secondary Attack key allows it to use Brute Force. Brute Force is a powerful, leap-like attack that deals significantly more damage to its target if it hits. It also deals bonus injury damage. Brute Force gives the Kaprosuchus a tool to hit very hard and potentially cripple its prey before it has a chance to flee. It costs both Ability and Stamina to use and slows your movement speed by 40% while charging the attack.
  • Aiming the camera up and down while holding the Secondary Attack key will allow you to adjust the angle Brute Force leaps with. Additionally, crouching lowers the launch angle. There is now an aiming cursor that shows where you will land while using this ability.
  • Brute Force's leap distance does not scale with growth, Powerful Legs, or being fat. This allows the ability's trajectory to remain consistent and useful as a combat ability regardless of growth. Note that Kapro has another, similar ability specifically for mobility that does scale with growth and Powerful Legs.

+While swimming, the Secondary Attack key allows the Kaprosuchus to dart. Its dart is similar to other creatures with the ability.

+Kaprosuchus' Ability key allows it to use Blood Rush
  • Blood Rush adds additional damage to the next attack the Kaprosuchus successfully lands.
  • Blood Rush also allows your next attack to ignore damage reduction if it hits on the tail
  • Blood Rush cannot be used while in combat, so the Kaprosuchus must be prepared for the fight to get this bonus. A notification will display when you leave combat on the Kaprosuchus, informing you that Blood Rush can be used once more.
  • Blood Rush's damage does not scale with other abilities that add damage such as Bone Snap or Brute Force. It does scale with growth, damage talents, and other conditions that modify damage such as being grabbed.
  • The Talent Thirsty for Blood increases the damage Blood Rush adds to an attack

+The Kaprosuchus' Special key allows it to perform a large, high-angled hop. This ability can also be aimed by tilting your camera up or down, and it has an aiming cursor that indicates where you will land while using this ability. Crouching lowers the launch angle. While charging this ability, the Kaprosuchus moves 20% slower.
-This ability scales with both Powerful Legs and Growth, allowing it to go much farther as it gets bigger. It costs only Stamina. You may find the Kaprosuchus in surprising places due to usage of this ability!


[h3]Kapro-Specific Talents[/h3]
+Added Replenish as a new talent to Kapro's talent tree in socket S3.1
  • Replenish grants stamina to the Kapro on a successful attack. At 5/3 this grants 37.5 Stamina per attack

+Added Thirsty for Blood as a new talent to Kapro's talent tree in socket M3.1
  • Thirsty for Blood increases how much damage Blood Rush adds to your next successful attack. It also reduces the cost of Blood Rush and increases how long the buff lasts until it expires.

[h3]Passive Abilities[/h3]
+Thick Tail
  • -Thick Tail grants the Kaprosuchus 65% damage reduction on its tail rather than the standard 50%
+Thick Scutes
  • Thick Scutes grants immunity to venom. This applies to both the venom damage type and to the Palaeophis' Venom Spit ability and its associated status effect
  • Thick Scutes additionally grants 50% damage resistance to damage being dealt by serpents such as the Palaeophis.
+Lazy
  • The Kaprosuchus can eat a lot, far surpassing being full. This takes overeating to the extreme, allowing the Kaprosuchus to gain substantial amounts of health and weight at the expense of mobility.
  • It also can go a very long time without eating.
  • Note that to take full advantage of Kapro's Lazy trait, the talents Resilience and Tough Stomach are highly recommended. Otherwise, the comfort drop from being this overweight will likely result in your death.

[h3]Stats[/h3]
+Kapro has a growth rate and scaling stats that match the Pachycephalosaurus
+Kapro has a base food value of 125
+Kapro has a max food value of 300, which is higher than any other creature in the game
+Kapro's base health is 425
+Kapro's base damage is 65

+The Kaprosuchus is primarily a meat eater, but it can occasionally eat fish without getting sick. A diet too rich in fish may make you sick via the dietary mechanic, as it has a max fish allowance in its diet.

[h3]Skins[/h3]
+FireBelly by Twilightwolf & Natahi4
+Leopard by Valhalla
+Swamp Runner by Pixeldeer & Novacaine
+Mangrove by Callie
+Seaspray by Novacaine & Valhalla
+Banded by Gamevideosforlife & Novacaine
+Marbled by Nonyapie & Natahi4

[h3]Misc[/h3]
+Added Kapro taunt emote
  • The taunt emote requires visiting all major deity shrines on the map

+Added Kapro dance emote
  • The dance emote requires owning the BoB OST

+Kapro lays nests where the eggs get buried after they are laid. This functions similarly to the Archelon nest. It does not have to be laid on or near a beach.


[h2]New Titania Map Expansion: Cypress Marsh[/h2]
Cypress Marsh is a mysterious and misty biome located behind Titan's Rise. Its a semi-aquatic focused area that connects to the ocean biome: Eroded Coast. It trades good food and water for poor visibility and unpredictable marshy terrain.

+Cypress Marsh features a unique biome soundtrack
+A thick fog covers the biome both day and night, making it perfect for ambushes
+The largest body of water in Cypress Marsh does not have a banner (or a mark on the compass) to prevent confusion while traversing the biome. This main watersource is infinite but does not provide satiation. However, there are many small pristine water sources across Cypress Marsh and the Eroded Coast to drink from instead that do provide satiation.
+Cypress Marsh features a special water Post Process effect which makes the water look dirty and murky when below the surface. All animals are at an equal visual disadvantage to this biome-specific murkiness. There are also chunks of algae floating in the water at some locations.
+Creatures now get covered in algae from the top-down while breaching in swampy water
+There are 3 mini land shrines and 3 mini aquatic shrines in Cypress Marsh.
+There are various types of AI in Cypress Marsh
+Cypress Marsh features various unique POI and environmental story telling

[h3]Other Map Adjustments:[/h3]
+Fixed bad collision on burnt Tropic Trees
+Improved LODs on the Kapok Trees
+Replaced the mammoth bone assets on Titania with lore-correct theropod bone assets
+Added some more broken building structures to the Orchard Ruins at Outlands
+Cypress Marsh Trees, Roots, and Stumps are now in the foliage tool and interactable on Titania. Stumps, Roots, and dead trees can be knocked over, but not eaten. Cypress Trees with leaves can be eaten when playing as correct species type and growth.
+Increased compass scent radius by 75% on Isla Titania to accommodate for map expansion


[h2]Other New Content[/h2]
[h3]Earnable, Equippable Cosmetics[/h3]
+Each creature can now earn an equippable burn overlay if they are caught on fire by a forest fire and manage to survive.
  • There is a corresponding achievement in the achievement gallery under the cosmetics section that shows how many creatures currently have earned the overlay
  • This cosmetic unlocks game-wide if earned on an Official server.
  • The Burn scar overlays can only be earned if the player survives a fire that has not been spawned with console commands. Note using 'spawnfire' during a forest fire will mark all active fires as console-spawned, and the achievement will not work in this case either. Touching lava and being caught on fire by lava during a forest fire will also not grant the achievement.

+Each creature can now earn an equippable lightning scar overlay if they are struck by a naturally occurring lightning bolt
  • There is a corresponding achievement in the achievement gallery under the cosmetics section that shows how many creatures currently have earned the overlay
  • This cosmetic unlocks game-wide if earned on an Official server.

+Surviving sickness at or above 2.5 growth now rewards the sickness overlay for the creature that got sick. This sickness overlay is equippable on the Character customization screen.
  • It equips to the same texture slot as the burn and lightning overlays.
  • There is an achievement in the achievement gallery that displays how many creatures you have gotten sick and survived on. All creatures can earn a sickness overlay. Completing the achievement requires surviving a terrible sickness (2.5+ growth) on all creatures.
  • Note that Pachycephalosaurus can earn the achievement, but currently has no sickness overlay.

[h3]Skins[/h3]
+Added new Velo skin: Harrier by Twilightwolf


[h2]Admin[/h2]
+The console command SetAllTalentInheritsTo now dirties a creature

[h2]Quality of Life[/h2]
+Talent points have been reset for this patch
+Added Velociraptor dance sound
+The Palaeophis now removes any visual dirtiness effects such as mud or sand after shedding its skin. It also dries it off.
+Renamed the Pteranodon Idle2 animation to Shake in the emote action wheel. Using this animation now dries and cleans the Pteranodon
+Using the Shake emote as the velociraptor now dries and cleans the Velociraptor
+While not mousing over any talents, the dino information that shows up on the dino select screen now also shows up on the talent screen. Note that all dino information has been updated to be relevant and up-to-date
+Added two additional save slots to all player save profiles, bringing the total save slot count up to 12, from 10

[h3]Streamer Mode[/h3]
+Added Streamer Mode toggle in the gameplay settings
  • Toggling it on automatically randomizes own name, hides global chat, uses only friend's steam avatars and hides server's name
  • Streamer mode now changes other players names to their ID in player list, chat and in group. This is only visible to the streamer. ID can be used for /invite etc.
  • Streamer mode now changes group names to random dino species name from that group in the group finder. This is also only visible to the streamer
  • Player colors and badges are now hidden while in Streamer Mode
  • Leaderboard names are now hidden while in Streamer Mode


[h3]Dino Customization UI Edits[/h3]
+The Dino Customization UI has been edited to make it easier to find various cosmetic options while creating a new creature.
  • The voice pitch, preview growth, and update camera view options are now immediately visible to the player on the left side of the screen.
  • After selecting a skin, additional cosmetic options that can be added to the character are now also visible on the left side of the screen. This includes holiday or warpaint overlays, velo / changyu plumage options, usable model morphs, and any other cosmetic options available to the player.
  • Pressing the back arrow or the escape key will hide the left panel with the customization options, allowing the original UI setup to be viewed instead.
  • The color wheel that displays when a color-customizable equippable item is added to a character can now be closed, allowing the player to get back to the growth preview and voice pitch options
  • These changes were made as we realized players were not finding these options very easily.
  • Note that most of these changes are for the creature creation screen, not the customization screen accessible while playing a creature.



[h2]Balance[/h2]
+Balance: You can no longer dart while Tendon Tear is active
+The talent Vigilance also gives an additional effect:
  • Vigilance reduces how much venom damage is received from all sources. This also shortens the duration of Venom Spit's blind effect. With max talents invested, it mitigates these by 67%.

+The talent Burrow Master now has an additional effect:
  • Increases the rate at which you regenerate Ability, Stamina, Comfort, and Health while in a burrow. With three points invested, these match their resting regeneration rates.

+The talent Snake Senses can no longer sense players that are in a burrow
+Balance: Flyers are no longer knocked out of flight if hit by a gliding velo or changyu while flying
+Balance: Increased the speed threshold at which flyers will transition into a swimming state when diving into the water. This means you enter a swimming state sooner than before.
+Balance: Wing Beat's status diminishing returns timer is now 15 seconds, down from 30. Note this applies to both Archelon and Tropeognathus

[h3]Archelon[/h3]
+Balance: The talent Snapping Jaw also reduces the base Ability cost of Archelon's charged bite attack

The Enfloofening Hotfix

+Fixed: The Coahuilaceratops Hyperboreos skin now unlocks game-wide rather than server-wide if earned on a community server. Note that you may need to log onto the server you earned the Coahuilaceratops Hyperboreos skin for the skin to then be available game-wide. Also note this same error was present with the Mosasaurus Ice Blight skin as well.
+Fixed: Velo can no longer spam RMB while out of resources, causing it to spam sounds and attempt to play its animation
+Fixed: Velo's pounce sound no longer causes a stutter when the sound is stopped
+Fixed: Velo Skin Kākāpō to have Macrons in the name
+Added Velos to main menu

Warpaints

+Fixed: Mud and sand improperly handling subsurface scattering
+Fixed: Lens flare causing water graphical problems

The EnFloofening


[h2]New Velociraptor[/h2]
+The Velociraptor has been given an entirely new model and set of animations

[h3]Gliding[/h3]
+The Velociraptor can now enter a gliding state if the jump key is pressed while the velo is already in the air. While gliding, the crouch and jump keys offer control of the pitch angle. Note that holding jump only mildly improves pitch angle.
+While gliding, holding the sprint key will further improve pitch angle while gliding
+Releasing all movement keys while gliding will cause the glide to end, placing the player into freefall
+While gliding, pitch angle gradually becomes more and more angled downward. The longer you glide, the harder it is to stay aloft.
+Entering freefall and then re-entering a gliding state will refresh the pitch angle decay, allowing you to begin a fresh glide. Each time this is done, the stamina cost of doing so doubles. The baseline cost is 10 stamina, so it will cost 10, then 20, then 40, then 80, and so on to re-enter a glide. This is reset when the player touches the ground, enters a body of water, or enters the climbing state

[h3]New Velociraptor Specialization: Changyuraptor[/h3]
+The Changyuraptor, a specialization of the Velociraptor, is a quad-winged gliding specialist with feathered pantaloons
+The Changyuraptor and Velociraptor share skins, animations, and sounds. The Changyuraptor, however, has its own unique model
+Changyuraptor and Velociraptor can group by default. If servers wish to keep them separate, it can be done by editing the appropriate settings in the server's config file
+Changyuraptor is substantially better at gliding than Velociraptor. It is, however, a slower climber.
+Changyuraptor has slightly less health, damage, and weight than Velociraptor
+The Changyuraptor can use its pounce while gliding by holding down and releasing the right mouse button. It can do this to gain altitude while gliding

+Added new talent to Changyu's talent tree in talent socket M3.1, Sugar Glider
-Sugar Glider decreases how much more Stamina each successive re-entry to glide costs during one flight
-Sugar Glider also decreases the baseline Stamina cost of entering glide
+Added new talent to Changyu's talent tree at socket M3.3, Updraft
-Updraft also increases the maximum pitch angle you can fly at while holding the jump key

+Added Airborne Ambush as a new talent to both Velociraptor and Changyuraptor talent trees in socket P3.1
-This talent greatly increases damage dealt while pouncing or gliding.
+Baseline, Velociraptor can now use an ability called Intuition. It allows dodging the direction of your current movement keys when quickly pressing and releasing the Secondary Attack key
+Added new talent, Intuition, to Velociraptor's talent tree in socket S3.1
-This talent greatly reduces the cost of using Intuition
-The baseline cost of dodging is 30 Ability and 30 Stamina, which reduces significantly with talent points invested
-Note that if you flick the camera up or down quickly while using this ability, you can control the pitch angle you launch at when using dodge.

+The Velociraptor and Changyuraptor have multiple tail and crest plumage options you can choose from. There are, in total, 4 tail options and 3 crest options. Choosing no crest or tail plumage is also an option.
-Note that you won't have any crest or tail plumage by default. Crest and tail plumage can be added by going to the Character part of the skin customization UI

+The Velociraptor now has a dance emote. It requires owning the BoB OST on Steam to use
+Added Velociraptor taunt emote. It requires 100% in the Hunt Points Trial.
+Added both Velociraptor idle variant animations to the emote action wheel
+Added velo fat, skinny, incest, elder, and baby morphs


[h3]New Skins[/h3]
+New Velo Skin: Redtail by Valhalla and Twilightwolf
+New Velo skin: Snow Leopard Remake by Valhalla (originally by Misha)
+New Velo Skin: Skua by Twilightwolf & Pixeldeer
+New Velo Skin: Chimera by Valhalla
+New Velo Skin: Nuclear by Pixeldeer & Natahi4

+Added Velo Supporter Warpaint + Supporter Eyes Cosmetics

[h3]Misc Velo Changes[/h3]
+Velociraptor can now enter the climbing state while gliding by pressing the Ability key
+Velociraptor now enters the climbing state by using the Ability key

[h2]Winter Event 2024[/h2]
+For a limited time, players will be able to earn the new Coahuilaceratops Hyperboreos skin. Previous Winter-themed cosmetics and skins can also be earned once more at this time.
-The Hyperboreos skin was made by Valhalla and Gortys
-The skins have a glowing, bioluminescent layer.
-The skins unlock separate equippable cosmetic overlays. The Hyperboreos skin unlocks a snowy overlay and equippable icicles. The unlocked overlays and items can go on any skin of their corresponding species.

[h3]Earning the Skins:[/h3]
+To unlock the Hyperboreos skin and its Overlay, players need to find and collect Coahuilaceratops-themed idols scattered around the map.
+To unlock any previous Winter-themed cosmetic and associated overlays or other equippable items, players need to find and collect appropriately themed idols scattered around the map.
  • The idols will match the dinosaur type the cosmetic corresponds to. This Winter, you can earn cosmetics for Mosasaurus, Parasaurolophus, and Coahuilaceratops.
  • Gathering the idols will allow the player to progress through achievements associated with earning the skins.
  • The idols will be spawning on all servers and on both Life Cycle and Free Roam game modes.
  • Completing the achievement on any server will unlock access to the skin and cosmetics game-wide.

[h3]Idol Collecting Tips![/h3]
  • The idols will be found scattered across land and sea, spawning randomly anywhere carcasses spawn.
  • The Coahuilaceratops Hyperboreos skin and any previous Winter-themed, earnable skin can now be earned by collecting idols scattered around the map and returning them to a matching deity shrine.
  • All skins require gathering 50 idols that correspond with their dinosaur type. All idols must be gathered on the same server to complete the achievement and unlock the skin, but they can be individually gathered by different creatures or during different lives.
  • Idols show up on the compass when nearby with a color themed for the deity shrine they belong to
  • Turning in an idol will show achievement progress in the top-right corner of the screen
  • You should also be able to view the progress you've made towards unlocking both the event skins by viewing the corresponding achievements in the achievements gallery's Limited Time Events page

[h2]Mechanics Changes[/h2]
+Nest Raiders can now get food out of empty looking or incompletely filled carcasses dropped by juvenile dinosaurs that would otherwise be non-interactable or have very little food value. Full carcasses do not provide additional food to baby snatchers.
-Carcasses cannot contain more total food than the creature that dropped it ate in total. This was added a while back to combat self-feeding behaviors and to make fresh spawns not an enticing kill for players to hunt, but it also adversely affected the Nest Raider talent. The above change allows only Nest Raiders to bypass this mechanic, getting access to the full carcass value of food regardless of whether or not the dropper of that carcass ate food or not before dying. Full 5/3 Nest Raider allows 100% access to all the remaining, unfilled food value that would otherwise be absent in a carcass. Lower point values of Nest Raider only allow partial access. Nest Raiders eating from a carcass will deplete the hidden Nest Raider food first.
-Nest Raiders will see carcasses with more meat on them if they contain this hidden food that only they can interact with and eat.
-Legging a carcass does not pull Nest Raider food off the carcass. It always stays with the original carcass.
+Disabled Ability key climbing toggle from controls settings. The Ability key is now always used to enter the climbing state.

[h2]QoL Changes[/h2]
+QoL: Improvements to how the moon direct light is handled. It should now be brighter and easier to see at dusk and dawn on all maps.
+QoL: Public branch Velociraptors now get a specialization reset. Skins from public branch should select the best-matching new velo skin.
+QoL: Servers now spawn a world event immediately upon booting up. The first world event has no countdown timer and is immediately active. Additional world events will continue to spawn as normal.
+Added Shape_Plane_Snow and SM_Cube_Snow to the foliage placement tool

[h3]Music[/h3]
+Added looping Save Select and Dino Select music tracks to their respective UIs
+Added new Near Combat music. This music plays when you are near members of your group that are engaged in a fight but are not in the fight yet yourself.

[h2]Balance Changes[/h2]
+Balance: The talent Resilience now adds comfort for beached aquatics
+Balance: The talent Arboreal now increases the rate at which you regenerate Ability, Stamina, Comfort, and Health. With full talent investment, these match their resting regeneration rates.
+Balance: The talent Wing Tear now also applies its damage increasing effect to Velo and Changyu if they are gliding. Note that Velo and Changyu are injury immune, meaning no additional injury damage will be dealt.

[h3]Changyuraptor[/h3]
+Changyuraptor's base bite damage is 25. Velo's is 33
+Changyuraptor's base health is 110. Velo's is 125
+Changyuraptor's size is 110. Velo's is 120
+Changyuraptor's gliding stats are substantially better than Velo's
+Changyuraptor's sprint speed is 760. Velo's is 815

[h3]Kronosaurus[/h3]
+Balance: Kronosaurus now has Out of Element in its P3.3 talent socket

[h3]Megaraptor[/h3]
+Improved Megaraptor Slash Attack hitbox

[h3]Mosasaurus[/h3]
+Balance: Mosasaurus now has Out of Element in its P3.3 talent socket

[h3]Palaeophis[/h3]
+Balance: Palaeophis now has the same dietary requirements as Mosasaurus, and cannot eat fish food without risking getting sick
+Balance: Palaeophis is no longer considered a piscivore. This means Chinlea give substantially less food and give negative comfort bias when eaten.
+Balance: Regurgitating now costs 25 Ability Power baseline. The talent Ready to Run reduces this cost.
+Balance: The Palaeophis can no longer use its primary attack while darting, resulting in it doing more damage than intended
+Balance: Adjusted how venom damage is calculated such that the Palaeophis cannot deal more venom damage than it would with a 2:1 weight advantage vs its opponent. This prevents it dealing very high levels of venom damage to very small weight class creatures such as Velociraptor and Oryctodromeus.

[h3]Saichania[/h3]
+Balance: Saichania now resists 50% of all venom damage

[h3]Velociraptor[/h3]
+Balance: Velociraptor now has Tough Stomach in place of Adrenaline
+Balance: Reduced Velociraptor pounce leap stamina cost to 25, down from 40
+Balance: Velociraptor no longer consumes stamina while coiling its pounce leap
+Balance: Velociraptor can now continue to hold its pounce leap indefinitely until RMB is released. Pressing other movement keys will cancel the pounce leap.
+Using pounce leap with insufficient stamina results in a shorter leap
+Balance: Sturdy now activates when above 75% health, rather than 90% health
+Balance: Increased Velociraptor climbing speed by 33%
+Balance: Increased Changyu and Velo heal rates by 60%
+Balance: Velo can no longer use its pounce while blinded by Sand Attack
+Balance: Increased Velo's base damage to 33, up from 30

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
+Fixed GPU-related clientside crash
+Fixed: A rarer but similar instance of growth loss and reversion of save state to a previous version of a saved character being possible.
+Fixed: Sacrificing at a shrine now properly marks the dead creature as having sacrificed to the shrine and awards proper Trials points. It also fixes a sacrificed creature not receiving a boost to their Trials in that deity category for the purposes of reincarnation.

Fall Event! Now with Carcharo Carnage!


[h2]New Content[/h2]
[h3]Carcharodontosaurus Specialization[/h3]
+Added a new specialization to the Acrocanthosaurus class. The specialization is the Carcharodontosaurus
+The Carcharodontosaurus uses the same skins as the Acrocanthosaurus and behaves similarly to how we implemented the Brontosaurus as a specialization of the Apatosaurus class
-All other specialization-specific stuff that we did for bronto should work for carch
+See the Balance Changes section of the patch notes for Carch's stats. Note that Acro's stats have changed as well to better-differentiate it from Carch and adjust its balance point a bit.

+Added new mechanic to Carcharodontosaurus: Voracious Roar and Voracious Bite
-The Carcharodontosaurus has Voracious Roar as an ability rather than Intimidating Roar. Voracious Roar is activated by pressing the Ability key and costs 35 Ability. When activated, yourself and all nearby group members (carch and acro only) receive a temporary buff called Voracious Roar. This buff lasts 20 seconds, then 10, then 5, and then cannot be used any longer for one minute.
-While Voracious Roar is active, attacks dealt by any player with the buff against any ungrouped player will result in receiving the Voracious Bite buff. Voracious Bite is a stacking, heal-over-time buff that lasts for a duration of time. This buff resets its timer and increases its stack count each time the player deals another successful offensive attack.
-Carcharodontosaurus, by default, receives 3 stacks of Voracious Bite each time it succeeds in making an attack while Voracious Roar is active. Acrocanthosaurus receives only 2 stacks.
-Voracious Bite's healing is reduced by bleed and hits a 50% reduction when the player has 100 bleed.
-Voracious Bite does not activate if the Carcharodontosaurus' attack struck a player who had Spiky Shield or Evasive Maneuver active
-Carch's Voracious Roar status icon now shows up above the Carch's head while it is both active and on cooldown on non-owning clients
-Note that support toggling whether or not specializations that share the same dino type can group has been added. By default, Carch an Acro will not be allowed to group with one-another on Officials due to balance concerns. This can be changed in a server's Game.ini config file if a server wishes for them to be able to group. More details are located in the Admin section of the notes.

+Carcharodontosaurus has a talent tree identical to Acrocanthosaurus, with only one difference.
+Replaced Improved Intimidating Roar with Voracious Roar on Carch
-Increases how much healing you personally receive from your Voracious Bite healing
-Increases how long the Voracious Bite Heal over Time effect lasts on your character.
-Reduces the cost and increases the duration the Voracious Roar Buff that gets put on both you and all nearby party members
-Increases how many stacks of Voracious Bite you can have going at once. Talent points increase it by two, and inherits increase it by one.
+All saved Acrocanthosaurus have received a specialization reset

+Added new Lurdu Skin: Siliquosa by Pixeldeer & Natahi4
+Added new Acro Skin: Rouge by Callie
+Added new Apato Skin: Genetic Stripe, by Valhalla

[h2]Fall Event Skins![/h2]

+For a limited time, players will be able to earn the Megaraptor Servant of Charon skin and the Tyrannosaurus Fall Decay Skin.
-The Charon skin was made by Valhalla and Croww
-The skins have a glowing, bioluminescent layer.
-The skins unlock separate equippable cosmetic overlays: Charon's Splendor for Megaraptor & Leafy Refuge for Tyrannosaurus. The unlocked overlays can go on any skin of their corresponding species.

Earning the Skins:
+To unlock the Servant of Charon and its Overlay, players need to find and collect Megaraptor-themed idols scattered around the map.
+To unlock the Fall Decay skin and its Overlay, players need to find and collect Tyrannosaurus rex-themed idols scattered around the map.
-Gathering the idols will allow the player to progress through achievements associated with earning the skins.
-The idols will be spawning on all servers and on both Life Cycle and Free Roam game modes.
-Completing the achievement on any server will unlock access to the skin and cosmetics game-wide.

Idol Collecting Tips!
  • The idols will always be found on land and spawn randomly anywhere carcasses spawn.
  • Both the Megaraptor Servant of Charon skin and last year's Tyrannosaurus rex Fall Decay skin are now earned by collecting idols scattered around the map and returning them to a matching deity shrine.
  • Both skins require gathering 50 idols each. All idols must be gathered on the same server to complete the achievement and unlock the skin, but they can be individually gathered by different creatures or during different lives.
  • Idols show up on the compass when nearby with a color themed for the deity shrine they belong to
  • Turning in an idol will show achievement progress in the top-right corner of the screen
  • You should also be able to view the progress you've made towards unlocking both the event skins by viewing the corresponding achievements in the achievements gallery's Limited Time Events page

[h2]QoL Changes[/h2]
+Added a setting to only show friends' steam icons in player list and in group. If disabled, shows everyone's steam icons (unless profile is private, no profile picture etc.). This requires a restart to take effect.
+The dawn, noon, night, deity shrine, and combat music all play on all maps now. Not just Isla Titania
+QoL: Added tooltips to the Unstuck and Unjam buttons on the Escape menu so players can see the difference between the two
+QoL: If you've fallen under the map, you can use the Unstuck button on the Escape menu to immediately be teleported to an appropriate spawn point. Additionally, when player is stuck under the ground the unjam and unstuck buttons are immediately available when opening the escape menu
+QoL: Exiting the map's playable boundary now results in the player being moved to a random spawn point appropriate for their creature rather than in a death. Certain bugs were triggering this death condition and we'd rather handle possible out of bounds bugs with something less punitive for the player.
+Minor improvements to dino shader
+Brontosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus now show up as such in combat log events, on the character stat screen, and as the default name on saved entities

[h2]Optimization[/h2]
+Improved various assets on Isla Titania to improve performance
+Optimization: removed shadows from small meshes on all dinos


[h2]Admin[/h2]
+Added console command ClearCommandHistory that clears the history of previously used commands

[h3]Group Config[/h3]
+Admin: Servers can now configure whether or not any specific dino type allows cross-specialization groupings to occur. The default value is set to true. If configured to disallow cross-specialization groupings for a specific dino type, players with different specializations will no longer be able to group with one-another.
-In order to configure this value, the CreatureLimits config value in the Game.ini file can be changed to this:
CreatureLimits=(CreatureType=EDinoType::Acrocanthosaurus,PercentAllowed=100.0f,GroupLimit=4,SoftCapStart=0.7f,SoftCapEnd=1.0f,HardCapGrowth=0.8f,bAllowSpecializationGrouping=false)

-By default, Acrocanthosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus cannot group with one-another due to this config value being set to false. If servers wish for them to be able to group, the bAllowSpecializationGrouping value either needs to be set to true or it needs to be removed from this line of the config file, as it defaults to true when not specified.

+Admin (public): Added support for different group caps for different specialization types in the server's Game.ini config. The syntax is like this:
CreatureLimits=(CreatureType=EDinoType::Acrocanthosaurus,PercentAllowed=100.0f,GroupLimit=4,SoftCapStart=0.7f,SoftCapEnd=1.0f,HardCapGrowth=0.8f,bAllowSpecializationGrouping=false,Specialization=0)

CreatureLimits=(CreatureType=EDinoType::Acrocanthosaurus,PercentAllowed=100.0f,GroupLimit=3,SoftCapStart=0.7f,SoftCapEnd=1.0f,HardCapGrowth=0.8f,bAllowSpecializationGrouping=false,Specialization=1)
Note: Acrocanthosaurus is specialization 0, Carcharodontosaurus is specialization 1, Brontosaurus is specialization 1, Apatosaurus is specialization 0, Terrestrial Palaeophis is specialization 1, Semi-Aquatic Palaeophis is specialization 0, and Aquatic Palaeophis is specialization 2

[h3]Server Manager[/h3]
+Fixed a variety of UI-related Server Manager issues
+The Server Manager is now compatible with controller usage
+The Server Manager should now reliably work to fetch information from the server and present it to a server admin who wishes to use it.

[h2]Mechanics Changes[/h2]
+Mechanics: Bottom Walking now triggers from 50% further away from the seafloor
+Mechanics: Hard-capped groups now have a growth threshold at which a player starts counting towards the cap. Previously, all players counted towards the cap regardless of growth. This allows hard-capped groups to have younger dinosaurs in their group without them counting towards the cap. By default, this value is 0.8 growth. If a player grows past 0.8 growth and that player caused the group to exceed its hard cap, they will be automatically removed from the group.
-Note, this value is in the server's config settings, and can be changed on a per-species basis. The CreatureLimits array defines this value with this syntax:
CreatureLimits=(CreatureType=EDinoType::Acrocanthosaurus,PercentAllowed=100.0f,GroupLimit=4,SoftCapStart=0.7f,SoftCapEnd=1.0f,HardCapGrowth=0.8f)

-Players should receive a notification in chat when they are removed from a group for this reason

+Mechanics: Sometimes going through portals, touching foliage that has collision, or being dropped from a grab would cause the player to die. Under these circumstances, the player is now safely logged out immediately and the player's saved character is not marked as dead. Trying to fix these has been challenging, so we're making the impact of these sorts of bugs not nearly as severe for the player as well. That is the reason for this change.
+Experimental new change to Biomutations and other bioluminescent skins:
-The alpha value of the bio's color picker now drives how much of the underlying skin's colors bleed into the bio. A alpha value of 0 causes it to use the underlying color completely, whereas a value of 1 uses the color of the biomutation's color picker. A value of 1 corresponds to current public branch bios, and this setting is totally optional.
+Reduced good parent offspring sniff range and snake senses sniff range from 600m to 60m

[h3]Great Nesting Site[/h3]
+The Great Nesting Site world event now disables the food and water drain increase associated with having the Survival Deity Blessing buff
+Great Nesting Site and the Survival Deity Blessing now both close the gap between your current Good Parent level and 5/3 Good Parent by 50%. This effect does not stack, and having either buff will grant this effect.
+Both Great Nesting Site and the Survival Deity Blessing add one additional Good Parent beyond this effect for the purposes of talent inherit generation.
+Under all nesting circumstances, the odds of passing on inherits has been improved by 0.5 Good Parent.
+The chances of getting inherits during reincarnation has been improved slightly to simulate the effects of having 0.5 Good Parent added to this mechanic as well.
-Note that the above changes were made due to us findi ng a bug related to the Great Nesting Site world event. It was granting the effects of having 7.5 Good Parent for players that had 5/3 in the talent, resulting in players receiving better inherits in this world event than intended. Players can still get the same odds of passing inherits while under both the effects of Great Nesting Site and the Survival Deity Blessing. The improved odds, however, have just been spread around a bit more to make other avenues of nesting fairer in comparison.
-Status condition tooltips have been updated to reflect these changes.

[h3]Coahuilaceratops[/h3]
+Balance: Coah now has a small jump similar to Saichania's. It costs 20 Stamina.
+Balance: Added a new mechanic to Coahuilaceratops. Each time it is hit from the front, it receives a stack of Active Defense. Active Defense, baseline, reduces damage by 7.5%. This can be improved by the talent Hardened Shield. Active Defense can stack up to 5 times, and behaves much like Frenzy. It lasts 20 seconds, and the timer for its expiration resets each time the Coahuilaceratops takes damage from the front. The stacking is multiplicative, meaning 5 stacks grants 0.925^5 damage reduction, not 1 - 0.075*5. This mechanic only activates if the Coah is either stationary or crouched.
+Balance: Added Hardened Shield as new talent to the S3.1 socket in Coah's talent tree. It improves the effectiveness of stacks of Active Defense.

+Increased Venom Spit baseline range by 43%
+Increased Venom Spit baseline blind duration by 43%
+Reduced the effectiveness of the Venom Spitter talent by 50%. At 5/3, the effect is identical to before with the above-mentioned buffs.
+Balance: Increased Aquatic Palaeophis' food drain rate to 0.75, up from 0.54

+Fixed: After reincarnation the spawn or creature new button no longer select a random slot in the saved creature list and instead player needs to click a creature or empty slot first before the button reactivates
+Fixed: Creatures with elusiveness should no longer turn completely invisible when it's hit by para's or malawania's ability
+Fixed: Acro can no longer spam intimidating roar ability on a creature that already has intimidating roar debuff, resulting in wasted AP
+Fixed: Egg Carcasses should no longer cause excess server log spam

+Fixed: Eggs now show their specialization name properly in the character stat ui
+Fixed: The Great Nesting Site world event now properly closes the gap between the player's current level of Good Parent and 5/3 Good Parent for the purposes of generating egg inherits.
-Note that Great Nesting Site was previously able to combine with Good Parent and exceed the effectiveness of having 5/3 Good Parent in regards to inherit generation. It was never our intention to allow this mechanic to exceed what players could normally obtain through other gameplay means such as reincarnation or regular nesting. We've decided to fix this bug, making it such that 5/3 Good Parent presents the best possible odds you can get to pass inherits onto your hatchlings.
