Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fixed a blocker issue at the end of Carrines Bay main quest chain where game would get stuck depending on a choice the player made.

  • Fixed an issue that allowed companion quests to be taken again after completion if initiating them in Carrines Bay.

  • Choosing to help Hilde or not at a certain point in Alchemist quest will now have intended consequences later in the storyline.

  • Ren dialogue in Central after leaving the Guildsman's house party will no longer retrigger when loading a save game made during that section of the game.

  • Normal NPCs will no longer be present at night after Guildsman's house party. There's a curfew, after all (new saves only).

  • Some enemies from the final fight had a mismatch in visuals and equipped weapons compared to the cutscene preceding that fight. The visuals should be matching now.

  • Improved the "Asking Beggars" step of the Alchemist main quest to make it easier to navigate.

  • Fixed some instances of incorrect objects, lighting scenarios or characters loading into a level when loading from save games.

  • Some characters were incorrectly being dissolved to skeletons on death.

  • One sleepy head kept sleeping after the fight at Fabian's camp. He'll be properly removed now.

  • The quest giver marker for Reginald's quest in Carrines Bay Outskirts will no longer be visible when Reginald is not present.

UI/UX improvements

  • Contract quests now appear in a separate section within the journal.

Balance fixes and changes

  • Final fight in Carrines Bay main quest chain has been rebalanced to be more manageable regardless of party composition.

  • Some characters (e.g. Crown Arcanist) didn't have a correct class assigned. They do now.

  • Some enemies in Carrines Bay quests had a tendency to spam the same ability each turn (e.g. Defensive Spin or Kick). Such enemies should behave more naturally now.

  • Added AI behaviors for Battlemage and Arcanist classes.
