Patch v.0.530

I decided to repaint the previous upgrade icons. The old ones were originally based on assets from a pack, which I had painted over and modified myself. Since painting is not my strongest area, Ola, our concept artist who also created the blessings and characters, repainted them from scratch.

I understand that this change may take some time to get used to, but I believe it is better to introduce it sooner rather than later. The quality of the old icons was too low, and I had wanted to replace them for a long time.

CHANGES

• Added new upgrade icons and rebalanced their saturation.

• Updated character art.

• Updated the game icon.

• Updated Bishop voice sounds.

• Updated localizations, including Thai, a Polish “Cięciwa Porażenia” typo, the Confessional tutorial, and codex descriptions.

• Updated freeze materials on enemies.

• Added an option to have multiple elementals on one weapon.

• The hero is now invincible for 2 seconds after revive.

• Added monitor switching settings.

• Added mouse input support for skipping the starting sequence.

• Added freeze and stun statuses to the Prayers tab.

• Explosion, stun, and freeze codex entries now unlock when a weapon is unlocked or bought.

• Harrowfiends are no longer targetable by weapons while invisible, but they can now be killed by any damage source, including AoE, melee attacks, and skills.

• Player and enemy projectiles are now blocked by environmental collisions.

FIXES

• Fixed falling out of the level during the Azrael fight.

• Fixed falling into the pit during the Azrael boss fight.

• Fixed purple lighting on objects in Act 4 levels.

• Fixed the pink flamethrower in Act 4 levels.

• Fixed the refresh button when the player has the exact required number of souls.

• Fixed Azrael’s freeze material.

• Fixed the melee % damage-to-type perk.

• Fixed Sealed Vitality and Mana Drop blessings reappearing after being taken during a crusade.

• Fixed the stats preview when merging into a weapon with the “add critical / damage on kill” perk.

• Fixed end stats always showing 10 HP lost.

• Fixed aura emitter weapon positions on Synthar drones.

• Fixed Synthar drones appearing with a delay.

• Fixed buying an additional blessing when blessing slots are full.

• Fixed the Blood Brothers achievement when Brother Severin is killed first.

• Fixed icon backgrounds for new revelation notifications.

• Fixed chest location on Act 3, Level 13.

• Fixed the ground plane showing up on Act 3, Level 12.

• Fixed weapon hover sticking in the pause menu.

• Potentially fixed rounding issues with prayers and refresh cost in the UI.

• Fixed negative HP values by clamping HP to 1.

My goal is to keep improving Arms of God together with the community and build the strongest possible version of the game on the road to 1.0, so thank you for your endless support!
