Artifacts

• A new item class called an Artifact has been introduced. Artifacts are account wide items intended to make creating new heroes less of a burden. Artifacts are presently awarded the first time you hit Level 100 with a class or the first time you reach Exalted with a Guild. (COUPON = WHOISGOD)

• The Level 100 Artifacts increase Account-wide EXP earned by 20%. These Artifacts can stack.

Leaderboards

• The Global Derby is also now fully visible at https://godsofangling.com/derby/, in addition to in-game

• “Lunker Watch” has been added, which is a live feed of heavy catches by all Anglers globally. It is viewable in-game, or at https://godsofangling.com/lunker-watch/

• The in-game Leaderboard Pane can be toggled between the Global Derby, the Lunker Watch, and the Offline Guild Derby.

• The Online Derbies now include the flag from the Anglers country of origin. It is truly Global!

  • If you wish, this functionality can be disabled in the Settings Menu under Visibility -> Flags.

DLC

• The Launch Edition DLC is Now Available! It includes the Gladiator & Bard Classes, the Minotaur and Ravenfolk races, and several new Themes. Thank you for your support!

Gods of Angling Founders Edition

Game Balance

• Reduced the effectiveness of stacking Automation, Trader and Fishfolk Elixirs. They now have diminishing returns in high numbers.

• The EXP curve for Heroes above Level 100 has been adjusted. This may result in a one-time level change for heroes who are presently above Level 100. Sorry about that!

• Significantly reduced the high-level potency of the Tuskarr Racial Skill (“Natural Angler”) as it was scaling out of hand at high levels combined with strong legendary fishing rods

• Very minor adjustments have been made to some of the attribute bonuses from cooking ingredients

• Clarified in the skill sub description that Overkill (Thief Level 30) is always a Critical Strike

• Increased the power of the effect of the Djinn “Magic of the Lamp” racial buff.

Friends

• You can now offer Gifts to modify your Best Friend, Rival, or Love Interest by offering them a specific gift when they are present. These Gifts can be earned via Matchmaker Expeditions, or via the Exalted with The Matchmakers Quest.

Inventory Adjustments

• The Inventory now contains an alternative view type called “Table” View, which shows your inventory in a table. You can choose Classic View or Table View, whichever you find more suitable.

• There is now a Local Storage that functions like an Archive

• Consumables now stack in your Inventory

• You can now Search using the Text Search within your Inventory

General & Misc

• Racial skills that were previously too vague have additional clarifying information added to them.

• Updated Fish encounter weightings to use a more granular data type so that smaller changes would not get rounded up/down. Ie - drinking a single elixir of serendipity will always have an effect, even if ‘trivially’ small

• Themes are now persisted per Hero, rather than Account wide, so you can customize your Theme selection for each Hero you have

• Fixed a bug which could cause the game flow to get stuck if you rapidly drank many consumables in quick succession

• Non-Turn Actions (like interacting with the Merchant, starting an Expedition, etc) are now instant and not time-gated like a Turn

• Added filters to the Friends Archive, to help you more easily find specific Friends

• Friends visiting from other save files now use their proper Journal (Biography & Stats) Data, rather than generic data

• Usage of Custom Portraits on Heroes has been extended to situations when Friends visit from other save files

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a few bugs which will make the Merchant more reliably purchase your items, particularly if your Inventory state changed while the Merchant was already present

• Fixed a rare issue where the next arrival Merchant could be have their name and portrait missing until they arrived

• Fixed an issue where the Leaderboard pane could disappear for heroes that were Level 100 or higher

• Fixed an issue where if you exited the game while sleeping, you would resume awake, but miss out on having any dreams

• Fixed a bug where the scroll wheel could be used to scroll the Inventory out of bounds

• Fixed a few issues with theme contrast in the Settings UI

• Fixed a few visual where in certain situations pets could hide summoned companions while in combat

• Fixed an issue where Vampire class Heroes could not equip Buff type skills
