Challenges Update (V0.166)

There is new mini-event system that allows you to earn extra cash and EXP by defeating special groups of enemies within a time limit. These challenge areas will appear on your map as flashing purple squares, and a new cycle starts every 20 minutes. It will probably take a bit of time to properly balance the difficulty and rewards for these based on player feedback, so if they feel too easy or too hard right after release please don't be too annoyed :)

  • Crows are back! (but only in challenges for now)
  • Small sound effects now play to alert you to things such as player chats, tutorials messages, leveling up, completing a challenge etc
  • You now need to press F instead of E to view a player profile
  • Fixed some more bugs relating to multiplayer sync and enemy pathfinding
  • Fixed a long standing bug with Finger's stare making it far less annoying to fight
  • Because of the above fix, the stare now does 4x damage
  • Fixed a bug that caused players in Archbrook to sometimes get stuck outside the game world
  • Fixed a bug that caused the texture of boss corpses to change after looting
  • Fixed a bug that caused the marker to appear in menus sometimes
  • Fixed a bug that caused new characters to get a connection error right after starting the game


NOTE: You will need to quit the game client and install the update on Steam before theses changes take effect. If the game fails to update, logging out of Steam and back in again usually does the trick.
