- Guild talents: Talents can now be purchased with gold or Guild Talent EXP, including currency-aware auto-buy settings.
- World and lighting: Added a persistent four-hour day/night cycle, outdoor sun/moon lighting, dynamic shadows, and normal-map shading across characters and environments.
- New content: Added the level-31 Golden Forest, Owlbear enemies and equipment, new follower abilities, an Owlbear achievement, and Fur drops.
- Combat balance: Reworked Agility speed scaling, high-level enemy HP, Hunter ability scaling, Giant Slayer, Ricochet, and enemy reward handling.
- Items and crafting: Added higher-tier trinkets, charm upgrades, Rosealloy gathering tools, custom shields, Owlbear gear, and corrected several material-drop and recipe-unlock problems.
- Recovery: Added Phoenix Fluff, allowing defeated characters and followers to resurrect with 25% Health and Mana, including purchases directly from the defeat screen.
- Offline progress: Restored accurate automatic simulation for all group orders, added faster long-duration processing, recovery checkpoints, improved results screens, clearer controls, and several equipment-icon and cleanup fixes.

Quick Fix for Crafting Odds and Guild Talent Issue
View on Steam
Just fixing some issues from the latest patch.
## Fixed issue with the shop buy button not working
## Fixed issue with exp scaling on crafting
## Added an option to enable the damage meters from the Guild/Groups UI (Ctrl + D still works)
Missed mention in the last patch notes that the game now uses DirectX instead of Vulkan on Windows. This is because AMD and NVidia's support for Vulkan is not that great and each driver update can break things suddenly that I have no control over. A lot of crashes came from Vulkan issues.

This was quite a big one. I kept adding things and couldn't stop. It was mostly focused on UI improvements and performance increases so hopefully it can run better for everyone!

- Improved debug console and Sentry integration support.
- Cleaned temporary UI artifacts and corrected several resource/runtime edge cases.
- Improved hit-particle behavior with a lighter floor-settling particle backend.
### Crafting, equipment, and inventory
- Added background crafting progress estimation so crafting and guild-housing construction remain coherent while the game is loading or processing offline time.
- Enabled lazy loading for saved inventory data by default and updated auto-sell checks to work with items that have not yet been materialized.
- Refined crafting order flow, blocked-order handling, and crafting-level scene behavior.
- Improved equipment comparison popups, item information popups, equipment drag-and-drop, and comparison layout behavior.
### Options and interface

- Added new high-tier gathering nodes, recipes, weapon types, armor, shields, and wands.
- Added the unique level-40 Onyx Maw Artifact. It grants 20%+ increased damage and 20% damage resistance when the wearer is the only guild member and has no followers; pets do not disable the bonus.

### Quests and progression

### Interface and usability

Idk fixing things and stuff.
Made the Guild View better I guess
Nerfed Crafting Quality Trinkets to the ground (has 50% diminishing return after each upgrade). If you didn't take advantage, sorry it was O.P.
Buffed bonus elemental damage on hit a bit
Hell Gnaw is now Aw Hell Gnaw
Trial by Blows doesn't blow anymore
Killing bosses that drop trinkets at higher tiers no longer drops higher tier trinkets
Auto equip uses the Auto level stats instead of the character's stats
Maybe fixed scroll wheel scrolling, it'll probably break again anyway, it now operates by joystick rules, down is up, up is down (not really)
Enemies above level 40 get 1 dodge rating, 1 hit rating and 1 spell resist rating per level
Decrease the roll amount of hit/crit rating on random items but they now add more attack
Armor on equipment shows how much dmg reduction they provide in % as well now
Added desert waste level
Multiple hunters with Beast Mastery makes it so you can have more pets
Fixed issue where enemies weren't taking advantage of their passive abilities, beware of the double attack!
Fix issue where enemy spell casters weren't using magic to auto attack or bow wielding enemies not using arrows
Fixed issue where the Octopus king was dropping the Spikey Cactus Pet instead of the Octopus pet

Hello been going in a trying to fix some more performance issues to get the game running as smooth as possible.
Got a big improvement when a crafted item is finished and other inventory improvements
Got a bunch of smaller performance improvements that add up
Reworked armor so it operates mostly the same a lower level but reduces damage by a percentage at higher level so when you're taking/dealing 20k damage it actually matters instead of just subtracting like 60 dmg.
Found more Localization issues and Fixed em.
Updating the Guild Emblem Icons to have a little better shading.
Added a trinket drop to the pirates and the goblin boar rider
Fix issue with being able to spend too much into a talent if the game was frozen for a sec
Fix an issue where the tactics page would 'reopen' if already opened when a skill was added

The Performance Should be Much better now. There seemed to be an issue with a bit of code in a physics process that would try to run even when the game slowed down which could cause a death loop. But that should be all good now.
Other Changes:
-Filters Buttons in Inventory and Craft UI can be shift clicked to inverse the filter so you can shift + click trinkets to search for everything not trinkets
-Filter buttons now darken when they are On
-Moved the Group inventory items from a button on the bottom of the Inventory UI to a button that matches the others on top of the Inventory UI
-Upgrading Fix - Equipment now correctly takes the right materials to upgrade instead of the equivalent of their crafting materials
-The Chance to craft an item for Free and Get a bonus upgrade is now capped at 50%
-Found some more missing localizations and took care of them.
-Should now be able to swap weapons from off-hand to main-hand from the equipment UI
-Auto equip items code more optimized

I'm revert to previous patch until I can figure out the running choppiness problem. Attempts to fix it made things worse. Please bare with me

Putting out an update 1.0.3 that should hopefully fix some performance issues:
Fixed an issue where a texture was being copied instead of reused. Should bring VRAM usage down from 2 Gigs to about 600mb. Should help cards with less memory a lot.
Fixed an issue when trying to equip an item that is stacked with different qualities
Added ability to ctrl+shift+click in the Vendor re-purchase to buy back the whole stack
Price of renewing follower contract now is shown
Instead of showing more info on a follower at the bottom of the UI you can click info on a follower to show a popup that has the info
Fix issue with not being able to click characters in Buildings/Guild Hall
Fix issue with Follower UI slowing things down
