Steam Patch Notes
Official update history
On the site: Build 16741539
Up to date
apologies to anyone who experienced gaining thousands of glory etc
View on Steam
thank you to everyone who reported it, haha
View on Steam
realized people really like the "cashout" gameplay of anroth so softened the power-point penalty
View on Steam
customary rebalancing of recent things, boosted master repulsion as well
View on Steam
- Tethic monks depowered somewhat
- Master Freeze now applies a lot less self-freeze on stand still and no longer increases all freeze applied (forgot to do this)
- Master Repulsion now applies 5% of Repulsion on self * skill level
- Ogham now only performs a prayer once per initial attack, not per empty armor slot (still scales heavily with ranged AOE)
- Anroth now spends all your power points when you learn it
- Fixed a bug that was causing Hadad 3rd prayer to charge with any unit attacking
- Fixed Apophis 3rd prayer not gaining 2 charges
- Fixed Agni items not healing
- typos / other bugs
Thanks for all the good vibes, feeling the love, hope to give it back some more
Mostly just a bunch of typos / bugfixes / attempted bugfixes here, thank you to all the new people who found stuff and sent in reports

Mostly just a bunch of typos / bugfixes / attempted bugfixes here, thank you to all the new people who found stuff and sent in reports
- Apophis self-damage raised to 7% and now correctly does astral (was wrongfully dealing fire damage, which had a very invincible combo with fire healing)
- Added Esty8nine and Pawnce to content creator credits (they're awesome, forgot to add due to my sleep deprivation)
- Tried to shore up a bug that was causing spam-clicking the prayers (with a mouse) to crash the game, let me know if it's still happening
- Fixed a bug that was causing Phoenix's 3rd prayer not to charge
- Inuqqa should now correctly prevent freeze-triggered damage
- other bugs / typos
Version 1.0
Apr 29, 2024
alright if this didn't break anything then next update will be may 7th, version 1.0, thank you everyone for helping with this
View on Steam
- the data for victory markers is now saved independently from the maqbara -- it'll be updated if you enter the character select screen, then going forward it will update when you win, and you should be able to delete Maqbara entries with impunity without losing the victory markers
- (hopefully) stopped players from entering a new land after dying on the map screen (this crashes the game)
- (hopefully) fixed a bug that was letting you try and enter the path of dust after deleting all maqbara entries (this crashes the game)
- Pallas first prayer now gives +50% chance to block if it's fully charged
- Pallas now transforms all shields into a larger Hoplon (Hit doubled, Block doubled), also transforms your class weapon if it is a shield
- Sesha Knife now also deals astral damage to all enemies in a 2 tile range when you hit
- Guard now adds % chance to block
- Mindfighter (formerly Warrior of the Mind) now also gives 3% chance to block and +15 block per level
- (internal) reworked the block % calculation to make it display more accurately
- 2 new tracks + other stuff
thank you everyone, again, the support has been really helpful, probably going to bugfix / tweak this one then hold onto the next one for 1.0
View on Steam
- Added Arbestus, hand armor, perform a hit against 1 enemy in a 2 tile range on attack / stand still, repeat for each bare fist
- Kaza Whip ability range increased to 3
