Another hotfix turned patch, today’s update was focused primarily on bug-fixing, with a pass on class and item balance.
Enjoy!
The build is now live on Steam and is expected to go up on GOG within the next day.
V1.0.0.9
[Crucible]
- Fixed an issue that caused the Tributes Earned to be higher than intended for Clients in a Multiplayer Session when starting the event at Wave 50 or 100. Previously, only the host was receiving the correct values. This mechanic was already in effect for Singleplayer, so the fix impacts Multiplayer only.
- Slightly reduced Tributes Earned after Restarting the Crucible at a Checkpoint (after cashing out or failing the event).
- Fixed a crash in the Crucible when building defenses in multiplayer.
[Tech]
- Updated Attacks Per Second calculations.
- Fixed an issue when interacting with NPCs that switch states in Multiplayer.
- Updated scrollbars.
- Fixed Primal Strike’s effect not showing up for others in multiplayer.
- Fixed chain lightning type skills sometimes failing to cast.
