v2.5.4 - Team Formation and QoL

🎉 v2.5.4 Update Is Now Live!

The v2.5.4 update is officially available for all players. This update introduces Team Formation and quality of life improvements.

Thank you to everyone who supported the game and shared feedback. Here is what’s new in v2.5.4.

⚔️ Gameplay & Systems

• New Team Formation

• Dynamic Hero Healthbar positioning (when heroes overlap, healthbars will now move vertically to avoid covering each other)

• New “Legendary and below” item selection button in Inventory Edit

• New “Useless Gear” selection button in Inventory Edit

How “Useless Gear” selection works?

The “Useless Gear” selection will only pick items that are strictly worse than your currently equipped gear with the same stats.

In other words, it targets items you realistically won’t ever need or use, and leaves out anything that could still be situationally useful.

This system is designed to be safe rather than aggressive, so it won’t touch items that might have different stat combinations or potential future value.

Also, this is just the first step:

In a future update, this logic will be used for an auto-useless-sell upgrade for the Fairy as well. 🧚‍♂️

Important Notes:

About a month ago, we introduced a new stat calculation system. Items obtained before that update still work, but they may cause minor issues. The new “Useless Gear” selection does not support these old items.

We mark them with an [Old] prefix. You can keep using them, but it’s recommended to replace them as you find better ones. They may cause small visual issues or be unsupported by some selection tools.

See you in Desktop Heroes!
