  • 0.1.1c Patch Notes
  • This patch adds respawn support for more endgame content and support for renaming characters through the website, as well as other improvements and bug fixes.
  • Improvements and Changes
  • Added up to five respawn attempts for the Twisted Domain area, based on the area difficulty. If the Breach Domain is completed but you die during the Xesht, We Who Are One boss fight, you will revive at the entrance to the boss arena. If you die before completing the Breach Domain, you will revive at the start of the domain. Repeated attempts of the domain will result in no experience from monsters.
  • Added up to five respawn attempts for the Olroth, Origin of the Fall boss fight, based on the fight difficulty.
  • Added up to five respawn attempts for the Crux of Nothingness area, based on the area difficulty. If you die before killing The King of the Mists, reviving will place you inside the boss arena and begin the fight again.
  • Respawns can only be triggered by the person who put in the Expedition Logbook, Breachstone or An Audience with the King, and everyone in your party will be respawned at the same time.

  • Hitting inanimate objects, such as Ice Crystals, Tempest Bell or Vine Arrow plants, can no longer cause your trigger skills to generate energy.
  • Vine Arrow plants no longer take damage from hits, and therefore no longer cause your on-hit effects and similar stats to take effect.
  • Minions can now briefly squeeze through smaller gaps if they've failed to move for a short period.
  • Channelled skills which scale their costs with attack/cast speed modifiers now explicitly describe this.
  • Unused stats in the skill and character menu interfaces are no longer displayed.

  • Improved item navigation when using a controller.
  • Improved targeting behaviour for ranged attacks when using a controller.
  • Improved targeting behaviour for Offering skills when using a controller.

  • Fixed a bug where the Twin Threats Atlas Passive Skill could sometimes duplicate monsters incorrectly, resulting in monsters that could not be damaged.
  • Fixed a bug that would prevent kills with Damage over Time being assigned correctly to players, most notably any death to poison or bleeding while the monster still had Energy Shield at the time of death.
