The goal of this quality of life + bugfix patch is to address a variety of bugs, fix a few unintended changes to Merc, and to make the final fight a bit more engaging and a bit less cheesy.



  • Captain
    • Captain’s Supply Drop now presses the buttons on Abandoned Aqueduct
  • Equipment Drone
    • Now recharges equipment much faster, approximately 5x as often. We don’t expect Equipment Drones to suddenly become super strong, but there may be a few cases where it is now worthwhile.
  • SPOILERS! Final Boss, Last Phase. SPOILERS!
    • Developer Notes: The goal with these changes is to make the final phase of the fight more consistent, fix a few softlock scenarios, and to remove a few cheeses. The expectation is that with these changes, the final phase (and only the final phase) will be much easier. We want this to be a fun phase, not a frustrating conclusion
    • Remove “unique” scaling on health and damage. This has a significant reduction on the way his health and damage scales over time, especially later into the run. Expect him to have less than half of the current live build, depending on time.
    • Lunar Shard Attack
      • Projectile Cone: 20° ⇒ 0.5°
      • Developer Notes: The intent for this change is to reduce the cone that the attacks come out of, reducing the chance you randomly get hit by a stray shot.
    • Energy Ball Attack
      • Damage Coefficient: 1000% ⇒ 700%
      •  Knockback Force: 400 ⇒ 4000%
      • Projectile Radius: 3m ⇒ 2m
      • Now glows with a stronger effect to make it more visually noticeable, especially when swinging around corners
    • Item Steal
      • Add immunity while channeling.
      • Can no longer use Mired Urn and Crowbars. He will take them, but will be unable to use them. This is a mechanic we already have in place for a few key items (Razorwire, Tougher Times) that can cause softlocks or impossible scenarios.
      • Now steals items from minions, like Engineer Turrets. He won’t use the items he takes from minions.
      • Minions can now retrieve items for their owner.
    • Add visual effect to Tesla Coil being active
 



• Fix certain network prediction projectiles appearing to bounce off targets instead of disappearing as intended
• Fix Mercenary’s Blinding Assault duration scaling from attack speed
• Fix Mercenary’s Blinding Assault having missing iframes on startup
• Reduce Mercenary’s Blinding Assault hitpause duration to 0.1 from 0.15 to match pre-1.0 hitpause values
• Fix Gorag’s Opus not working on Captain, Engi, or Equipment Drones
• Fix the fog on the last stage being entirely opaque if soft particles are disabled
• Fix Captain’s airstrike dealing 1500%/500%/500% damage into dealing 1000%/1000%/1000% damage
• Fix Wandering Vagrant’s portrait having a double red outline
• Fix Forgive Me Please not triggering Frost Relic
• Fix Forgive Me Please not triggering Berzerker’s Pauldrons
• Fix Loader Thunder Gauntlet not bouncing
• Remove luck from Artifact Key drop calculation since it can cause soft-locks with Purity
• Consumed Dio’s is now considered unremovable, and the scrapper no longer gets clogged if somehow there is an untiered item inserted
• Update some missing people in special thanks
• Fix dedicated servers not showing in game browser
• Fix game browser trying to connect to dedicated servers via steam p2p instead of ip
• Fix incorrect boss track on Sky Meadows
• Fix Titan eye glow and foliage missing
• Fix Captain’s shocking beacon missing name when pinged
• Fix unchecking "Show Started Games" in the Games Browser still showing started games
• Fix scrap interaction with cauldrons
• Fix Visions of Heresy interacting with Captain's orbital drop
• Fix Captain getting a new defense drone every time he scraps
• Fix REX being executed by freezes
• Fix Prismatic Trials counting your run in leaderboards when you die
• Fix Meat Hook causing a cascade of issues, preventing certain on-hit effects from working when it would trigger
• Fix Shadowfade not being usable by Captain in hidden realms
• Fix “Killed by: The Planet” for players who weren’t dead at the end of the run
• Fix Merc expose mechanic not awarding cooldown reduction to non-host players over the network
• Fix Captain umbra only spawning one Captain with Swarms
• Fix Captain showing up in logbook before commando
• Fix Final Boss health bar not showing for clients (including phase 2)
• Fix final boss fight sometimes not triggering
• Fix Little Disciple always triggering once as soon as it’s picked up, regardless of sprint state
• Fix Imp Overlord void spike fan firing sound not playing on non-host machines

• Fix missing out-of-bound floor under the starting room for the final stage
• Fix Lunar Chimera (Wisp) sound loop still playing after death
• Fix a floating node in Sky Meadows
• Fix a gap in the final boss arena causing you to get stuck
• Fix the ceiling in the final boss arena not being solid for projectiles and Lunar Chimera (Wisp)
• Fix Void Fields safe zones on Eclipse 2 being larger than the actual charging radius
• Fix Server Browser not refreshing by default, only shows 1 person when you click it for the first time
