Witchfire Patch 0.4.5.56088: The One Called Fast Response

Witchfire - AdrianChm

As promised in the road map, here is the Fast Response patch. Which turned out to be Medium Speed Response patch, as it took us three weeks instead of two, but at least it's finally done.

Unless a critical bug is found and a hotfix is needed, this will be the last patch until December, for which we have a bigger update planned: new content and all.

The patch today is mostly focused on balancing and bug fixing but there is a couple of interesting redesigns here and there. Also, extra ...things were added to the Island of the Damned. But to be 100% clear, this is not a big content update or anything. Just something to make sure the game is in a good state when we focus on the December update.

Here are the full patch notes:

Highlights

The Island now has a new Obelisk event, a mini-boss and a new area around the galleon with an extra event. A tease of upcoming new things hangs nearby.
Experimental ːcoolstar2022ː: added Crosshair Spells Notifiers -- a widget which is displayed around the crosshair and notifies you when one of your spells recharges. This feature is experimental and hidden by default, you need to turn it on in Settings -> Gameplay -> Experimental section. (Please note that this feature isn't guaranteed to stay and may be removed in the future.) Tell us what you think, we'll be happy to read your feedback!

Gear

Ring of Thorns

Ring of Thorns has undergone a thorough redesign.
Designer note: Ring of Thorns requires a very risky gameplay style, and thus needed a much bigger reward for playing well – hence the redesign.

Whisper

Whisper can once again stun Familiars and Faithfuls, but it takes a few shots, depending on the target's size

Hangfire

Removed a hidden "Fourth Mysterium" from Hangfire, that ballooned its single target damage out of proportion.
Designer's note: Early in Hangfire's design process, it had a different Mysterium II:"Explosions get stronger the more bullets are lodged in the same enemy."We changed it to the current version, not only because it wasn't particularly engaging and was pretty overpowered with the right setup, but we also found out that making Hangfire a more crowd-fighting oriented hand cannon gave it a stronger identity. The problem is...that Mysterium was accidentally never removed from the game, So both versions of Mysterium II activated when the gun was upgraded. Whoops.
Hangfire had its single target explosion damage and stun damage adjusted: subsequent explosions on the same target deal less and less damage.
Even with the "Fourth Mysterium" removed, Hangfire's single target damage and stun potential was still just a tad too high for its desired place in the combat sandbox. This feature was implemented so it could be reigned in without compromising its crowd-fighting capabilities
Increased Hangfire explosions base stun damage on initial target by 300%, and lowered Hangfire's bullet stun damage by 20%.
This makes Hangfire actually better at controlling spread-out crowds with explosions, while not being overpowered on single targets thanks to the new stun damage decrease on subsequent hits.
Increased ammo reserves from 90 to 120

Flamebreath

Increased Mysterium II bonus damage on Burning targets

Midas

You can no longer trigger Mysterium III repeatedly by interrupting reloads.

All-Seeing Eye

One more bullet in the clip community suggestion

White Raven's Feather

Cost on Unveiling Arcana lowered from 2 to 1
Slightly lowered the amount of Feathers dropped

Foul Stimulant

Now grants +100% witchfire for the whole run duration, in exchange for lowering health and stamina by 50% and preventing the corpse from spawning on death.

Witchfire Guard

Now protects all volatile witchfire on death, but there will be no corpse left behind to recover treasures from

Merchant's Stone

Now grants a significant heal, but consumes three random treasures from the Inventory

Gameplay

Fixed Stake Gun projectile launch location
Fixed an issue that caused enemy pathing to fail following the target
Fixed Buckler Swordsman collision to correctly reflect the mesh community request
Fixed teleporting enemy losing the elemental status applied prior to teleport community request
Removed some clutter from the Adventure Log, like mentions of locked supply chests
Tweaked some enemy drops to be more appropriate to their difficulty
Fixed a bug that caused "New Elixir slot unlocked" to display on incorrect levelup
A thorough balance pass has been made on Arcana parameters
Adeptus Major and Adeptus Minor had their description tweaked to better describe their use
Adjusted some Mirror Lock switch locations that were unreasonably hard to pinpoint. Fixed reward chest that spawned turned the wrong way around
Improved Rarog's Egg event rewards community request
To avoid confusion, changed the Soultrap’s "Event Failed" notification to "Event Finished" when you fail to fill up the Soultrap before the timer runs out and only get partial Demonic Ammo rewards.
Absorbing Manifestations now heals significantly more
Potions now drop slightly less often from chests
A malevolent being now watches for Manifestations left unused for too long…
When inspecting the monk statue in the Tower, golden footsteps now lead you to the scepter making the statue puzzle easier
Witchfire cost of cleaning areas with the scepter has been lowered from 5K to 2K
Witchfire cost of Gnosis Upgrade has been raised to limit accidental upgrades
Added the the second ship objective for Gnosis I to clear up any confusion
Ambush at Tower Gate has been polished and is a bit more newbie friendly
Fixed Ice Sphere and Heavy Gunner’s shield being valid targets for the stake
Fixed Firebreath second mysterium always being active
Fixed Firebreath second mysterium affecting enemies that weren't already on fire
Fixed multiple gameplay related crashes
Fixed broken spells inputs after switching spell casting mode back and forth in the settings
Fixed locked dash direction on controller when switched dash mode for KBM
Enemies no longer lose their elemental statuses when teleporting
Severed Ear's reload trigger is no longer spammable due to reload interrupts
Fixed conditions for 2nd Mysterium activations objective for Hypnosis
Fixed sometimes incorrect notifications about available Ascension
Rotten Fiend is no longer a valid target for lightning jumps between enemies
Casting Rotten Fiend when another one is already active will correctly remove the previous one on any Mysterium, rather than only on the highest one
Fixed Rotten Fiend's Decay aura
Fixed a crash happening when some inputs were left unbound in the settings
Fixed hidden weapon bug when trying to swap weapons and using Elixir at full health
Fixed Silent Secondary corrupted Arcana preventing swap to Demonic weapon using Quick Swap input action
Fixed loot drops for Sister, Devotee, Wretch and Sentinel enemies
Trying to cast a Spell while dashing will now correctly cast it right after dash ends instead of failing
Stun bar UI above enemy health should now correctly display its value after switching targets
Spell cooldown icon no longer appears as ready when it's still recharging (micro cooldown bug)
Increased the threshold required to change platform input icons using mouse or controller thumbstick
Moving the cursor with thumbstick while pressing (A) will no longer display KBM icons on the UI
Improved rebinding so that you can override other binds
Added better Sharpen option (lets you restore the soft pre-patch look)
When interacting with the Gunroom, you will now see notification icons (little stars) leading you to the new gear. No more guessing whether 'new gear' means new weapon, spell, relic, fetish, or ring. Little star (and corresponding objective: 'New gear awaits in the Gunroom') will disappear after you hover a new item with your cursor -- there's no need to equip it if you don't want to.
Added a new objective displayed in the Hermitorium when it's possible to start researching a new gear (weapon / spell / magic item). This should help new players understand how Workshop Mirror works. It should also eliminate instances when you start a new expedition only to realize you forgot to start a new research. (However, please note that objective is only displayed when there's gear to be researched -- incantations are currently ignored, as they are not limited and can be researched infinitely.)
Added safeguard in the logic of displaying map icons, which hopefully will fix the bug with the icon with empty name and description
Settings / Controls: missing bindings are now displayed in red, making them easier to spot.
Settings / Controls: added warning popup which is displayed when you try to go back from the settings, and some of your bidings are still missing
Settings / Gameplay: changed the names of 'Screen effects' setting options to be more descriptive
Adventure Log should no longer display duplicate messages
Optimized Adventure Log memory footprint
Updated credits
Fixed mouse cursor hotspot being in wrong position across various screen sizes
Fixed Striga's projectile sometimes phasing through enemies
Better collision detection for Striga's projectile
Slightly lowered tracking on Warrior Priest and Maceman attacks to make dodging them more viable in intense combat scenarios
Slightly lowered aim leading for Devotee projectiles and made her more inclined to push closer to its target
Fixed camera shake rotation on melee attacks from sides to better reflect hit impact direction
Fixed All Seeing Eye position while aimed-down-sights community feedback
Shieldbearer's Shield dome radius increased by roughly 20% to make staying in it a slightly more managable task

Sounds

Added ambient sounds to the Island of the Damned
Designed sounds for the Obelisk scenario that occurs in the Island
Replaced the All Seeing Eye’s radial damage sound
Designed an additional radial damage sound for the All Seeing Eye’s decay shockwave
Added a new sonic element to part of the reload sounds for Hangfire
