Legacy Update

Important features

  • Community suggestion The Legacy Update now gives you access to all of the major iterations of the game that we've released. So, you can now play 0.0, 0.1, 0.2 and so on...Cool huh?
  • A new skill has been added, the Ice Armor. Covers your body with ice that explodes, freezing enemies, when you activate the skill again or after a few seconds. If you take a hit while it still active, you don't take any damage/ malaise and the ice explodes, but the cooldown is doubled.

    Perfect to delay the decaying of your current host...
  • A new shield has been added: the Ice Shield which, surprise, freeze all enemies around you on a successful parry. Parried projectiles will also freeze the enemies.
  • Frostbite a new survival mutation, has been added, turning the "slowed" status into a dot in addition to its usual effect.
  • Cold Blood, a survival mutation, has been added. Reduces cooldown when you melee hit a slowed, rooted or frozen mob.
  • A new skin, honoring our favorite white-bearded gift-bringer reindeer trainer grand' Pa, has been added.
  • Meat Skewer has been reworked, with the first strike of the combo dashing and piercing through mobs. The weapon next attacks inflicts critical damages on the enemies pierced with the first strike.
  • Frontline shield has been reworked, it now gives you a damage boost on melee strikes after a successful parry.
  • Lightning Whip does more damages, and will also deal damages to the enemies close to the target (currently 50%).

Balancing

  • Community suggestion The margin for random values has been decreased from 20% to 10% +/-. Basically before, an attack inflicting 100 damages could actually inflict in-between 80 and 120. Now it is in-between 90 and 110.
