Black Dragon Mage changes
Fellow Adventurers, thank you for your letters filled with feedback, praise, and concerns. I've read every single one of them! π
This first Early Access patch brings a collection of fixes and tweaks to make your next dragon ride even smoother.
β¨ Improvements Based on Player Feedback
Base walk speed has been significantly increased for all player characters.
Dashing in the Hall of Relics is now faster and snappier.
- Rerolls are now much more player-friendly- Costs reset upon leveling up (!) - Adjusted formula for better scaling.
Arcane Mutators that previously cost gold to equip during a run are now free! - Since you already paid for unlocking them in the Hall of Relics, this double charge felt unfair. I agreed, so itβs been changed.
Reworked the Quest Reward UI for better clarity, making it easier to see where you can redeem rewards (auto-redeem is coming in a future update).
Expanded upgrade outcome previews to include spell categories for better planning.
Improved text colors in Arcane Mutator upgrades for easier readability.
Settings are now saved using a new system to prevent conflicts with playtest/demo builds.
Added a feedback button to pause menus where it was previously missing.
π§ Tweaks
Dash mechanics tweaked for better balance.
Various small balance adjustments across abilities and gameplay.
π Bug Fixes
Improved boss AI movement, addressing a bug where Luminor could dart off over long distances.
Fixed unreliable item unlocks, ensuring more upgrade choices are now visible.
Resolved an issue where some upgrades appeared transparent.
Fixed controller UI navigation glitches.
Boss enemies are now cleared more aggressively when starting or leaving a game.
Quest board icons now update more reliably.
Area text now hides faster when paused in the Hall of Relics.
"During a run" achievements are now tracked more accurately.
Fixed missing metadata for the "Crimson Crown" item.
Improved item data handling for smoother gameplay under the hood.
Fixed display and logic issues with the mutator upgrade option view.
π Localization
Updated German translations for better accuracy and style.
