[2020] [PC] Patch 2.1.1 - Year of the Rat

Heroes,

At first, it was simply a couple of rats that got into the keep with the crates for Lohner’s Emporium of Wonders, nothing to worry about. However, a couple of days ago Olesya grew tired of their little clattering feet and decided to root them out with one of her spells… it turned out to be an entire rat infestation! The rats are everywhere, and although Sienna does not seem to mind the extra company Saltzpyre is greatly dismayed that they are trying to get to his test specimen downstairs…

With Year of the Rat upon us, we for some rat-tastic reason felt the urge to honor our furry friends. For what would Vermintide 2 be without rats?

Between February 5 and February 13 something ratty appears to be in the works as an entire league of rats have taken a liking to Taal’s Horn Keep, and to celebrate the arrival of these critters Cousin Okri has from the 6th of February a new quest for you, and of course you will be rewarded for your efforts.

Patch Notes

• 3 Event quests starting on February 6th.
  • Rewards 2 paintings and new Portrait Frame.
• Taal’s Horn Keep is overrun by rats! Victor will not be happy.
• Fixed a bunch of crashes caused by mod interactions with tooltips.
• Fixed a crash in the benchmark tool.
• Fixed a crash for joining players which was triggered when user in the joining session had some throwing axes on the ground and then switched ranged weapon to something else!
• Fixed a bunch of painting related crashes.
• Fixed the weave 95 crash.
• Fixed an issue where the painting reward for completing Old Haunts did not show up in the list of available paintings.

The schedule on this is tight, but we could potentially extend the quests a day or so.

We will, it was causing some instability so bear with us.
