| 225s | that should you be lucky enough to find |
| 226s | them check out the full list in our |
| 228s | patch notes |
| 230s | ailments have undergone significant |
| 232s | changes that will make them more easily |
| 234s | understood and bring their effectiveness |
| 236s | against bosses and packs of low-held |
| 238s | enemies more in line namely by reducing |
| 240s | the duration that the full effect would |
| 242s | take place over and will Now display the |
| 244s | full amount of stacks applied to enemies |
| 246s | the balance of all elements have been |
| 248s | updated in a number of ways which are |
| 250s | also detailed in the patch notes since |
| 252s | our last release depths of a Terra we've |
| 255s | put a significant amount of work into |
| 256s | improving performance across the game |
| 259s | Baseline frame rates in zones and |
| 261s | performance when using abilities have |
| 263s | been greatly improved especially among |
| 264s | stabilities that were noted as poor |
| 266s | performing in earlier patches while this |
| 269s | update does bring significant |
| 270s | improvements to Performance will |
| 271s | continue to make improvements to |
| 273s | Performance in future patches as well |
| 275s | we'll also be shipping an early version |
| 277s | of the MTX system with this update while |
| 279s | you won't be able to buy anything new or |
| 281s | access the shop just yet you'll finally |
| 283s | be able to equip Cosmetics that you own |
| 285s | through previous supporter pack |
| 286s | purchases |
| 287s | I'll also take this opportunity to |
| 289s | reinforce our commitment that last Epoch |
| 292s | will never sell items that Grant player |
| 293s | power we've taken a hard stance against |
| 295s | this and will continue to Champion that |
| 297s | stance into the future with that said if |
| 300s | you have fun ideas for how certain |
| 301s | skills pets or armor could be reskinned |
| 303s | we'd love to hear them |
| 305s | as we conclude I would like to address |
| 307s | and provide some context to the recent |
| 309s | Gap in our releases developing server |
| 311s | authoritative multiplayer with a smaller |
| 313s | but growing team has come with plenty of |
| 315s | challenges including the need to rewrite |
| 318s | systems so that they're ready for scale |
| 319s | and admittedly that took much longer |
| 321s | than anticipated this much more complex |
| 324s | way to enable multiplayer with server |
| 326s | Authority will allow last Epoch the |
| 328s | future options and benefits that we feel |
| 330s | is important including competitive |
| 332s | features that are hard to cheat better |
| 334s | protected accounts and characters and |
| 336s | the ability for us to ensure that |
| 337s | gameplay is smooth by providing top tier |
| 339s | servers and players not having to rely |
| 341s | on peer-to-peer connection which may be |
| 343s | slow or intermittent with this enormous |
| 345s | development Milestone behind us and |
| 347s | having an expanding team we will be |
| 349s | releasing content more frequently and |
| 351s | for years into the future including |
| 353s | additions to itemization in-game further |
| 356s | story content classes are much |
| 358s | anticipated item faction system and much |
| 361s | more |
| 362s | I want to sincerely thank you all for |
| 364s | your continued support it's an absolute |
| 366s | dream for the 11th Hour games team to |
| 368s | reach this Milestone after coming from |
| 370s | an after hours passion project Five |
| 372s | Short years ago we hope you enjoy |
| 374s | playing last Epoch with your friends as |
| 375s | much as we have and we'll see you in a |
| 378s | Tara |
