• Added a "Do not show again" checkbox confirmation pop-up in the difficulty selection part of the War Table.
  
• The last difficulty played will be the default one when opening the War Table UI, unless a new difficulty has been unlocked in the meantime.

• Fixed an issue where hovering a reward in the War Table would not always display the comparison window.
  
• Fixed an issue where the productivity and item quantity multiplicator would not always be properly displayed for some consumables.

• This patch includes a fix that is the first of a series of fixes for the various sources of the null_umbra_item issue and resulting inventory issues.

This is only a partial fix to the overall problem but removes one of its causes.

Balance Changes

• War Table operations' experience and productivity rewards have been reduced but remain meaningfully greater than their older pre-1.1.5.0 levels.

Hello everyone,

Wolcen; Aegis of Stormfall, patch 1.1.5.0, is now live. This patch brings:

• A new end-game system: the War Table;
  
• New monsters;
  
• New damage type variations for some skills;
  
• A new environment;
  
• A new armour;
  
• Numerous bug fixes.

The War Table is the new feature introduced with Aegis of Stormfall and allows the player to partake in four new End-Game activities on top of Expeditions, scaled Mandates, and the Wrath of Sarisel. These new Operations are:


A malignance covers the land! Escort a new ally to key areas, and defend them, so that they may turn back the darkness. Beware the temptations and dangers that lurk in the suffocating and deadly black.




Enter the killing fields and survive increasingly large waves of enemies until none remain.




Enter the domain of a mighty boss and fight to the death. There can only be one!




Deprive the enemy of a powerful Wardstone, but be warned: not only is the Stone quite capable of defending itself, but it will summon champions to thwart your efforts.



The War Table comes with an entirely-new UI to support the Endgame Operations, their selection, and their accompanying progression system.



With these four new Operations, joining Expeditions, Mandates, and The Wrath of Sarisel, there are now seven total activities at endgame, all of which can be accessed through the War Table. At any one time, players can choose from three randomly selected Operations out of the seven and can refresh the selection by completing an Operation. The selection screen will also show the rarity and type of item that will be awarded for completing a particular operation at a glance, as well as the number of Skulls.



The Skull System replaces the old expedition progression system. On top of a particular item, each activity awards a number of skulls based on their difficulty and length. Players must collect a certain number of skulls to unlock, and progress to, higher tiers of difficulty. Any progression players have from the previous system will be carried over!



Miscellanea:

• Wrath of Sarisel now exists independently from Expeditions: players can encounter both on the War Table selection screen. Additionally, Wrath of Sarisel no longer costs primordial essence or requires 5 modifiers to launch.
  
• Mandates now scale past their original level limit and are now part of the War Table rotation.
  
• As the access to Expeditions, and therefore Hunts, is no longer 100% guaranteed at all times the amount of Hunt currency awarded to a player for completing a Hunt has been increased.
  
• Consumables (maps, reverie incenses, etc) stored in your inventory or your personal chest can be activated through the War Table UI without the need to open your inventory or transfer them.
  
• All operations are available from level 1 if you have already unlocked Champion of Stormfall mode.
  
• All operation types spawn a portal upon completion that requires confirmation to activate and send you back to Stormfall. No more misclicking and leaving behind a Trial Belt because you clicked the portal instead.
  
• The experience given as a reward for completing any activity has been increased to make your journey to max level all the easier.
  
• Some Operations reward a single item type, while others can reward a class of item. Players can choose the particular item they want from a rewards screen upon returning to Stormfall.
  
• We will be monitoring player feedback regarding the Operation rewards and tweak them in subsequent patches.

Once impartial priests of Halcyon metal, the Mystagogues now enact judgment on the Sleeper's behalf.




The Caretakers once kept the Primordial structures standing eternal. Now, they seek a new form of eternity by the Sleeper's side.





Bequeathed to the Republic most ferocious soldiers, the Veteran Armour is more than a defence: it's a warning to one's enemies.





The canyon is a beautiful new secondary area that will be available in-game.





Bladestorm can now be converted into Shadow damage.



Wrath of Baäpheth can now be converted into Rend damage.

• Fixed a group of issues that caused unusual behaviour and/or returned the player to Stormfall when displaying tutorial tooltips for the first time in Mandates and Expeditions.
  
• Fixed an issue where after using "Anomaly" on enemies their animations would stop playing momentarily.
  
• Fixed an issue that caused some cosmetic shoulder armour pieces to appear on the wrong shoulder.
  
• Fixed an issue that caused micro-loading when the player moved rapidly in a certain area of the uber Lambach consumable arena.

Hello everyone,

we know you're excited about Wolcen's next patch and we are happy to say that its final phase is coming to a close, and the last Svriir has been hammered into place, after some minor developmental delays. This does mean, however, that our original delivery window was pushed closer to Christmas than planned. While releasing during the festive period was an option it is, ultimately, neither sensible nor desirable.

When we release a content update we always make sure a task force is available to identify and fix important issues reported by the players, and we wouldn’t be able to achieve this without having our colleagues work over the Christmas and end of year holidays. While we would have loved to let you all try out our new end game missions sooner, most of you will probably be spending time with friends and family and we want to make sure all our coworkers are able to as well.

That being said, here is a sneak peek into some of the upcoming content, including our new end-game system, to make the wait easier.

The War Table is the new feature introduced with our next content update, and will allow the players to partake in 4 New End-Game activities on top of expeditions:

• Cursebreaker
  
• Onslaught
  
• Headhunt
  
• Sabotage

[/b]
[/list]



When using the War Table, players will have a choice between several mission types at multiple difficulty levels, with a specific reward that can be seen before launching the mission. We also completely changed the UI for better clarity.



We also worked on new monsters, with new abilities and attack patterns, to shake-up the battlefield.









As 2021 draws to a close we want to take a moment to thank you for your support this year and express our excitement for what’s coming. All of us at Wolcen Studio wish you a fantastic festive season and a bright new year.

Hello everyone,

We have entered the final phase of development for our next content update and we are now focused on polishing the new end game activities. Testing these activities internally, sharing feedback and working to ship the best version possible takes up a big chunk of our time, so we’ll keep it short for this month’s development update.

We expect to release 3 New End-Game Activities that will be added to the Expeditions with our next content patch, which we plan on releasing around mid-December. The system we have put in place will allow players to choose between multiple mission types at any time to suit their preferences. Choice can be based on difficulty, the quality of rewards, favored playstyle, character strengths, or the unique challenge of the activity.

We look forward to reading your feedback on this new system and these new activities, and will give you more information on what’s to come next in our upcoming Monthly Development Updates, where we’ll be able to dive deeper into several subjects such as Controller Support and our future plans for Wolcen!

As usual, feel free to join our Official Discord if you want to engage with our community, send us your feedback, or send us direct messages regarding anything Wolcen related!

Have a great day!
