Hotfixes

The following hotfixes were deployed after the 0.2.0b patch.

Hotfix 1

These are the patch notes for hotfix 1.[2]

  • Fixed a bug which was causing "Elemental twisters Gain 50% of damage as damage of the corresponding Type" on Twister to gain an extra 50% for each Projectile fired. So one of the projectiles was gaining 50%, another 100%, another 150% and so on.

Hotfix 2

These are the patch notes for hotfix 2.[3]

  • Reduced the life bonus of the minions of Rare monsters from 400% to 94%. This undoes a change that was made in 0.2.0 that when paired with the life change made yesterday, significantly improves the grindy feeling in 0.2.0.

Hotfix 3

These are the patch notes for hotfix 3.[4]

  • Fixed a bug where skills that have a percentage of damage gained as a specific element didn't get bonuses from certain combinations of other elemental damage types. This mostly affected Twisters being empowered by ground effects when using weapons with some types added elemental damage.
  • Fixed a bug where Doryani, Royal Thaumaturge's corrupted flamethrower ability was dealing significantly more damage than intended.
  • Fixed a bug where Enemies were unable to hit Lingering Illusions.
