🆕 Major Updates
🔄 Status Effect System
Effects that directly impact character stats, with maximum stacking limits for each status Most status effects activate at the end of a turn and reset at the start of the player's turn Status and stat information can be viewed when hovering over units/adventurers Adventurers without action points will receive [Fatigue] status when performing additional actions/combat (prevents infinite combat) Detailed information about status effects can be found in the codex (graphics will be updated in future updates)
🔄 Trait System Overhaul
Trait frames have been changed based on type Changed the mechanism of traits that provide additional attacks based on stats Before: Basic attack + Trait additional attack (2 attacks total) → After: Enhanced attack (1 attack) Example) Iron Skin+ trait: Before:
Basic attack for 80% ~ 120% of ATK (reduced by target's DEF) Additional attack for 100% of DEF (not affected by target's DEF) After: ATK(base) + DEF(trait) for 80%~120% as one enhanced attack (reduced by target's DEF)
When multiple attack traits are present, all are combined into one powerful attack
