Hello Heroes!

In today's update we are only bringing bug fixing to the game, which includes a permanent fix for the Steam Deck issue! We worked hard on this one and you should not experience any more trouble regarding the controller on this platform.

You'll find the full bug fixing details below.

In this update we are also adding in-game analytics to gather statistics that will provide us a deeper understanding about how you are winning, losing and enjoying The Last Spell.

Since the game's launch in 2021, we've relied solely on your written feedback and while we love to read all of your comments, it is sometimes not precise enough for an optimal balancing. With these new game analytics we will get raw data to dissect & study, allowing us to make more informed decisions for future updates and in the end, better improve The Last Spell.

These game analytics will be anonymous and include: how many gold & materials you generate throughout your run, what's your kill rate per skill per weapon, which wave did you fail the most for each map, etc...

If you're uncomfortable about the game analytics, you can turn it off at any moment in the Settings of The Last Spell under the "Other" tab.

Thank you and enjoy your Nights!

Hello, Overlords!

Changes to the weekly events are incoming! As you probably know, old events were meant to give our players the opportunity to obtain skins for battle girls. But considering new equipment for your characters and its importance, which should increase with future updates, we've decided that they would be a great instrument to help our players dress up their girls and get some powerful characters.

When the new weekly events are out, with each of them, you'll be able to collect a heroic battle girl and a full set of equipment for her by daily login and quests. There's also other juicy rewards, like a bunch of crystals and resources needed for upgrading your girls.

New quests are made this way that most of them will be completed seamlessly, while you're playing the game.

There are also some economy changes - we've decided to get rid of the weekly event's summon. Instead, there will be a new Epic summon with all core-game girls and much higher chances to get an epic character and the same chance to get a heroic one.

The Sacred runes will be removed from the weekly event's rewards. We plan on placing them as rewards for one of the game's modes in the future updates. In the meantime, they will still be available at the in-game shop.

We'll also think about how to distribute skins for battle girls and implement a new system in the future.
More info on this update coming soon.

Eyes up, Pilots! The Summer Update has launched, and while we're thrilled to bring you a new slate of content, we’ve also noticed some issues we want to address. 

• Robot Building: We’re aware that some players had problems rebuilding their Garages. We’ve also received feedback that the current UI setup feels confusing. We take your comments regarding UI changes very seriously. The goal was to make Robot management easier for new players and encourage them to experiment with their own Builds. We know that players are used to clicking on a Robot Module to go into edit mode. Now, when you click on a Module, the Module Overview mode opens. We will add a transition to editing there in a hotfix coming in the near future. 
• Balancing: We’ve received feedback that the balancing changes feel restrictive when it comes to Build options due to the changes to Weight and Energy limits. This was not our intention and we are monitoring feedback and will provide further communications regarding this in the near future.
• Client Crashes: We’re aware of the client crashes some players are facing and are working hard to resolve this. If you’ve experienced a client crash, please contact our Support team to help us pinpoint the problem.

On Friday July 12, we are hosting a Q&A session on Discord with members of the dev team including Zukata and Nausicaä to address your concerns at 19:00 CEST. Please join us to have your voice heard and burning questions answered.
A hotfix has now been launched (Thursday, July 11), which includes the following bug fixes and improvements:

• Fixed game crashes that were triggered when quickly spawning any Robot in the Firing Range and immediately returning to the main menu.
• Fixed game crashes that were triggered after eliminating Robot decoys created by the “Trick” ability with the weapon “Lighter”.
• Fixed game crashes that were triggered when trying to open the Friend actions menu from Steam.

• Fixed a bug where players were shown the "The squad with this ID does not exist" error message when entering a squad.
• Fixed a bug where players that have been added to the Block list disappeared from the list after restarting the game.
• Fixed a bug where after crafting any item, when creating a new Robot in the Workshop, all categories except Chassis and Pilots disappeared from the Workshop tab menu if the Build was not saved.
• Fixed a bug where armor debris was not displayed correctly at long distances when playing with low graphics settings.
• Fixed a bug where Grim’s ability “Magnetic Snare” could not be correctly activated when pointing at a wall.
• Fixed a bug where when adjusting the game brightness, the Robot icon is visible even at the minimum brightness value. 
• Fixed a bug where the tag “New” does not disappear hovering the mouse cursor over the cards.
• Fixed a bug where animations for the weapons “Shocktrain” and “Fowler” were triggered when the Robot spawned.
• Fixed a bug where Factions and Classes were not shown on the Pilot’s upgrade screen.
• Fixed a bug where the decal placement on the Torso during Robot customization was incorrect.
• Fixed a bug where the ability effects of “Siphon Link” do not disappear immediately from the Robot that used the ability after the enemy Robot has been defeated.
• Fixed various collision related bugs for obstacles on the Maps “Spectrum” and “Catalysts”. It should now be easier to pass through the terrain.
• Fixed a bug where characters played jerky animations in the background of the Garage.
• Fixed a bug where icons for Battle Tokens and Credits were stretched out in the currency conversion screen of the Battle Pass.
• Fixed a bug where the “Decrease level” button when upgrading Robot parts was grayed out.
• Sounds for shots with the weapon “Thunder” have been improved.
• Fixed a bug where shooting the Crusher trigger button counts the damage towards Contracts. 
• Fixed various localization issues.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience as we work to fix these issues.

Last time on the blog we only saw the very start of the battle represented in our upcoming free Montello map: the Second Battle of the Piave River.

Leaked Austro-Hungarian battle plans meant that the Italians were able to bombard them just before they began their assault, while they were still packed together in forward trenches. Casualties were heavy, and in places even led to the attack being cancelled or delayed. For the most part though, the Austro-Hungarian soldiers went forward and aggressively crossed the river to engage Italian positions on the other side.

They made it over the river and were able to advance 5 miles (8 km) further before the attack ran out of steam. The Austro-Hungarian commander Boroević attempted to restart the assault in the following days, but the destruction of bridges and high water levels made resupply across the river a nightmare, with some troops even drowning as they tried to cross.

A screenshot of the Piave river in Isonzo alongside reference materials. You can easily imagine how long those pontoon bridges would last under artillery fire.

On July 19th, four days after the attack began, the Italian General Diaz launched a counterattack into Boroević's flank which inflicted significant losses and further degraded their ability to attack. By the next day, Emperor Karl had taken personal command and ordered a retreat. Three days after that, the Italians finished recapturing all the lost ground on their side of the river. Italy's allies encouraged them to keep up the offensive and chase the Austro-Hungarians across the Piave, but General Diaz figured that the same supply issues that had hindered the Austro-Hungarian operations would block effective Italian attacks as well - not to mention the fact his forces were still scattered and not ready for an offensive. Instead smaller actions were taken to secure useful ground and prepare for a future offensive. Italy would be at no further risk of attack from the thoroughly exhausted Austro-Hungarian military.

The town of Nervesa della Battaglia in-game, as seen from the defender's perspective looking towards the Austro-Hungarian advance.

As with all our maps, we've done a lot of research to recreate the battlefield while also making it a playable space with entertaining gameplay. This means making sure key landmarks and defenses are represented, but allows for some wriggle room when it comes to proportions and distances. The goal is to capture the challenges and opportunities offered by the landscape, but avoid frustration or particular objectives being too easy.

These photographs of the river helped us create a memorable starting area for the battle.

People unfamiliar with the First World War might think all trenches are much alike, but as all you veteran WW1 Series players will know, every area of every front had trenches with specific quirks. Getting trenches right for each map is a top priority.

Mythmatch is part of the IGF Celebration Days event! As part of this, Moo, one of the developers of Knights and Bikes, will be streaming the demo of Mythmatch and hopefully will remember to speak a bit about the development process.

It'll be his first time ever streaming, so definitely give some tips or questions in chat (and be patient please).

System

• Improved performance in the bedroom attack scene on the Commander;
  
• Players who encountered a problem with The Lord of Nothing DLC when commander could get to an empty location Portal to the Abyss and get stuck after the start of the cutscene, in which the control was taken away from the player. This issue occurs due to a bug in transferring a save from The Lord of Nothing DLC company (team with Sendri, Rekarth and Penta) to the main game.
  Because of this the game could not read the ending of The Lord of Nothing DLC company and could not give the corresponding storyline for the commander.
  We have prepared an update and instructions for you to fix the bug. If you encountered this problem while already on the location Portal to the Abys" and passed it from beginning to end then:
  1. It is better to use an earlier save from the main game, right after entering the location or before it.
  2. After loading the problematic save you will see a window with the transfer of the save.
  3. Please select your save from the list of saves made in the final The Lord of Nothing DLC, where you played as Penta and Sendri, and confirm your choice.
  !Otherwise the error will not be fixed!
  4. If the transfer the save is successful - you will be able to continue your passage of the DLC as a commander.
  5. If transferring the save does not yield any results, please send us a new error message in the game by pressing Alt+B (this will help a lot in solving this problem).
  How do I know if the save transfer was successful?
  1. If you are on the global map near the location Portal to the Abyss or already on it, but only at the very beginning and have not yet had time to go further, then entering it you will not break the cutscene, which shows the portal itself and those who guard it.
  2. If you are closer to Drezen, you can enter the tavern and to the right of the entrance, by the fireplace, you can see your party from the addition (if any of them survived).
  We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. You're awesome!
