DIMENSION RANGER news & patch notes

Gameplay

• Reduced the number of Guard cards in enemy decks related to Tiger Power Immortal, lowering defensive pressure and making the fight easier to break through.

• Further toned down Cyber-themed floor 3 and floor 4 Boss decks by removing some high-pressure cards, smoothing mid-to-late Boss difficulty.

• Reworked the Plagiarize leader skill: instead of turning your hand into copies of the enemy hand, it now gains 2 random copies from the enemy hand and reduces their cost by 2, making the reward more controlled.

• Recon Drone's hack cost increase can no longer push a target card above 10 cost, preventing over-cap cost states.

• Strengthened the derivative Dissolving Bomb series: after destroying one of your units, they now also grant 5 Armor while keeping their original draw, cost recovery, team health gain, or random enemy destruction effects.

• Reduced Dissolving Bomb's cost from 2 to 1, improving its startup efficiency in related decks.

• Adjusted enemy AI target selection for a card that destroys units whose Attack is higher than Health, making enemies prefer valid unshielded targets and reducing low-value plays.

• Reorganized rarity distribution across all Legendary, Epic, and some Rare cards, making rarity, names, and card art more consistent.

• Added or organized data for multiple cards/entities, including Twin Archer, Nezha · Tidecaller, Tang Sanzang · Eastern Tang, Nike · Skystrike Witch, and Housework Fairy.

• Standardized multiple card names, such as Acolyte becoming Sha Seng · Acolyte, Imperial Valkyrie becoming Metis · Imperial Valkyrie, and Megalodon becoming Spirit Megalodon.

• Improved multiple card descriptions: 'hand cannot fit' is now written as 'hand overflow', spell damage text now clarifies 'our side', and some trigger effects now explicitly mention the Trigger keyword.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where Enlightening Transmission could repeatedly record or run the normal play flow when triggering a target's entry effect, preventing extra cost deduction or abnormal chains.

• Fixed possible cost and record abnormalities when cards such as Thunder God and Electric Mother triggered another unit's entry effect.

• Fixed unit cards with no valid target not deducting cost after confirmed play; early-ended unit effects now still deduct the correct play cost.

• Unified unit card play-cost deduction logic to avoid inconsistent costs between normal targets, missing targets, and other play paths.

• Fixed Five Elements Wood effects appearing in the wrong position when used by enemies, so enemy leader skill effects now appear in the correct place.

• Fixed hand cards still responding to mouse hover while the deck, graveyard, or difficulty panel is open during mulligan, preventing accidental hand zoom or highlight over panels.

• Fixed the result screen incorrectly calling shop mouse-hover logic, preventing unintended shop highlights or animations.

• Fixed cards below the shop sometimes restoring position but not scale after mouse hover exit; cards now return to normal size correctly.

• Unified triggered-entry, passive listener, return-to-hand, and death cleanup logic, reducing risks of duplicate listeners, leftover listeners, or repeated triggers.

• Changed leader skill VFX playback to run asynchronously without blocking flow, reducing the chance that summon or consume effects stall while waiting for animation.

Visual Presentation

• Added Cyber gunshot VFX and connected it to the related card effect; gunshot effects now face from the caster toward the target for clearer hits.

• Added a dedicated hand-enhancement buff explosion VFX, so hand enhancement feedback now plays directly on the target hand card instead of using board-unit explosion placement.

• Improved card parallax and depth when displaying enhancement cards; opening enhancement displays now layer correctly without depth or angle issues.

• Added a poison kill indicator, making ultimate poison or poison kill previews distinct from normal pre-death and honor kill indicators.

• Added flash/icon feedback when passive skills trigger, making it easier to tell which card activated.

• Replaced card art for the Heaven final Boss summon and synchronized related card display content to improve theme consistency.

• Added highest-cleared difficulty display to the deck selection screen, letting players see each preset/dimension's best cleared difficulty directly.

• Added a mouse-hover text hint for 'Highest Cleared Difficulty' on the deck selection screen, with number colors distinguishing difficulty ranges.

• Adjusted difficulty panel UI details and corrected display/layout issues.

• Small cards in the deck editor can now distinguish gold and silver cards, making collection and deckbuilding quality feedback clearer.

• Adjusted shop enhancement card hover behavior so the upper enhancement card responds normally while lower cards are no longer incorrectly enlarged, reducing misinteraction in overlapping UI.

Gameplay

• Dissolve Bomb series buff: all 4 Dissolve Bomb cards now grant your leader +5 Armor before destroying an allied unit, giving this card group more reliable defensive value when sacrificing units.

• Master Thief effect adjusted: changed from “turn your hand into copies of the enemy hand” to “gain copies of 2 random enemy hand cards and make them cost 2 less,” reducing the uncontrollable feel of having your entire hand replaced.

• Recon Drone adjusted: Health reduced from 4 to 2.

• When hacking a card and increasing its cost, the target card will no longer be raised above 10 cost, preventing costs from exceeding the cap.

• Red Boy adjusted: Red Boy has been renamed Red Boy: Apprentice Mage, and changed from 2 cost, 1 Attack, 1 Health to 4 cost, 2 Attack, 2 Health.

• Wukong: Dark and Windy Night buffed: damage dealt to all units increased from 8 to 9.

• Molten buffed: cost reduced from 2 to 1.

• Some Tower Guardians updated: several Tower Guardian enemies have received new names and appearances, including Tower Guardian: Six-Eared Leader, Tower Guardian: Demon King of Original Sin, Tower Guardian: Frost Lich, Tower Guardian: Mother of Venom, Tower Guardian: Charged Turret, Tower Guardian: Great Immortal Tiger Power, and more.

• Some cyber stage bosses weakened: the strength of cyber-themed Layer 3 and Layer 4 bosses has been reduced further, making the mid-to-late difficulty curve smoother.

• Enemies related to Great Immortal Tiger Power adjusted: reduced the number of their Vigilance cards to lower the pressure from continuous defense.

• Enemy targeting for execution-type cards optimized: enemies will now be more likely to choose suitable targets, reducing cases where key effects are wasted on poor targets.

• Some preset enemy decks adjusted: several enemy deck configurations have been optimized to reduce overly strong or unpleasant combinations.

• Shop purchasing adjusted: the shop card-buying area is now split into upper and lower sections. The upper section is for buying upgrades separately, while the lower section is for buying cards separately. Prices still follow the original rules.

• Improved mouse-hover behavior for shop upgrade cards: when hovering over the upgrade area, the cards below will no longer enlarge or spread out abnormally, making feedback clearer.

• Related card display added to the unlock screen: when new cards are unlocked on the results screen, related cards will now be shown at the same time, helping players understand how new cards connect to each other.

• Highest cleared difficulty display added to the deck selection screen: decks that have cleared a route will show that route’s current highest cleared difficulty.

• Added different Golden Hoop display effects for different difficulty ranges: the deck selection screen now shows Golden Hoop visuals for different stages based on the highest cleared difficulty.

• Added a “maximum cleared difficulty level” tooltip on mouse hover, making it easier for players to understand the difficulty indicators on the interface.

• Cleared difficulty level markers added to the hero selection screen, making it easier to check progress for different heroes or routes.

• Optimized golden card display rules for Wukong cards: non-generated Adventure Dimension cards will be displayed as golden cards according to Wukong card rules, avoiding confusion between normal adventure cards and Wukong card display rules.

• Small cards in deck editing can now distinguish golden and silver cards, with card borders displaying different styles based on card status.

• Rarity filtering added to the card editing tool: developers can now filter cards by Basic, Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary, making future card adjustments easier.

• Optimized the search, save, and refresh layout in the card editing tool to improve editing efficiency.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed leftover old logic for Enlightenment, preventing it from still triggering an extra cycle or deathwish-related effect.

• Fixed an issue where shop effects were triggered incorrectly on the results screen: shop-related highlights and interactions now only trigger in the actual shop interface.

• Corrected interface details on the difficulty panel, reducing display misalignment and configuration errors.

• Updated multilingual card text to keep card names, descriptions, and actual effects consistent.

• Corrected some keyword description text to make the explanations more standardized.

• Replaced the card art for the Heaven final boss’s summoned unit, and updated card art for multiple Tower Guardian enemies.

• Added Golden Hoop and difficulty display assets related to deck selection, supporting the highest cleared difficulty display.

Gameplay

• Optimized preset player and enemy decks for stages 7–8: late-stage deck setups on both sides were adjusted so high-level battles have a more reasonable pace and matchup flow.

• Standardized spell targeting rules: spell effects are now separated into selectable targets and targets that can be affected, reducing confusion and input errors from inconsistent target checks.

• Adjusted damage display for Spore-related spells: effects that deal damage to all units now support spell damage bonuses, and card text uses dynamic values so players can see actual damage.

• Added forked-hit and pre-death hint support for Deadly Poison: when an attack can directly threaten the leader through a lethal effect, the pre-death hint displays more accurately.

• Adjusted trigger timing for units with the Shield keyword: cards with Shield now gain it before on-play effects and Vigilance resolution, letting Shield properly block damage triggered during entry.

• Expanded Heaven's cost-change rules: matching card types obtained later will continue to receive cost changes, preventing the effect from applying only to cards already in hand.

• Adjusted the achievement condition for Three-Turn Finish: the boss quick-kill requirement was relaxed from within 3 turns to within 5 turns, with achievement config, thresholds, and tests updated.

• Added configuration tests for dual enhancement unlocks: new tests cover enhancement content configuration and reduce the risk of unlock settings differing from actual content.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed missing localization for the not enough cost prompt: added localized static text for I don't have enough cost, avoiding missing or inconsistent prompts when cost is insufficient.

• Fixed incomplete keyword display on the rightmost card in the draw screen: improved hover keyword positioning so the explanation for the far-right card is not hidden or cut off.

• Fixed abnormal rear frame size changes when updating leader skill costs: after cost changes, leader skill card frames no longer scale incorrectly or break layout.

• Fixed Fate's Balance cost reduction not applying after Bajie returns a card to hand: cards returning to hand now retrigger the enter-hand event so later cost adjustments work correctly.

• Fixed keyword icon and repeated-use issues related to Fisherman: added missing keyword configuration and corrected possible effect problems when it is used multiple times.

• Fixed final deck counting for the Thin Deck Climb achievement: when roguelike clear events are posted, the current roguelike deck is recalculated and enhanced cards are excluded, preventing failure with 20 normal cards plus enhanced cards.

• Fixed lost save data for locked shop cards: when players lock shop cards, enter the shop next turn, quit, and return, the locked cards are now preserved correctly.

• Fixed saving of enhanced card slots in the shop: unsold enhanced cards are recorded by their real slots, preventing locked or displayed positions from shifting after empty slots are compressed.

• Fixed roguelike flow saving before Wukong's three-choice event: the battle state is saved before entering the related choice, reducing the risk of progress loss after quitting mid-flow.

• Fixed the new Bizarre Vendor failing to create cards when no unit was devoured: the related card-creation effect now triggers as designed.

• Fixed localization and card description configuration issues: added static text localization and changed some card descriptions to support dynamic values, reducing mismatches with actual effects.

• Fixed shield and invincible states being applied too late: prevents units from taking full damage before gaining Shield when entry effects trigger Vigilance.

Visual Presentation

• Updated battle results materials and prefab presentation: added result-screen materials and adjusted UI Panel, victory enemy icons, and other assets for a more complete results display.

Gameplay

• Adjusted Venom-related cards and SCP system values: stats, summon results, and descriptions for some Venom derivatives and mutation cards were balanced, making the Venom system’s tempo and payoff clearer.

• Adjusted Wukong: Power of Nothingness: changed it from its previous hero skill cost-reduction effect into a Trigger-based cost growth effect. Whenever your side uses a hero skill, it gains cost, making it more of a growth unit built around hero skill usage.

• Adjusted the text and effect presentation for Power of Nothingness so its rules better match the actual trigger logic.

• Adjusted the Arsenal hero skill: the summoned Mechanical Guard changed from 4-5 to 4-4, and its cost-reduction logic was fixed so deaths can correctly reduce it to 0 cost.

• Moved some enhancement-replaced hero skills into the Adv universe, unifying the classification logic for Wukong / adventure-related skills.

• Moved Elf Rapid Shot from the Tynar system to the Adv universe so it better matches its current source.

• Adjusted Tynar’s Witch: replaced the former Quasar name and artwork while keeping its gameplay role around returning cards to hand, drawing cards, and triggering Charge effects.

• Added related-card links for selected cards, improving the completeness of card effects, display, and synergies.

• Optimized exact-lethal damage logic so related cards, hero skills, and enhancements resolve more consistently when a target is killed by exact damage.

• Adjusted main-menu button effects and fixed button animations being affected by speed multiplier, preventing abnormal UI feedback while paused or when speed changes.

• Adjusted how main-menu button clicks are handled, making button behavior and visual feedback more stable.

New Features / Changes

• Added and reorganized game settings features: the settings page now includes an experimental features toggle and experimental speed options. When enabled, players can choose 1x, 2x, 5x, or 10x speed. This feature may cause unexpected gameplay issues; using the highest 10x option is not recommended for regular play, and in some situations it may even cause stuttering or an unstable experience. Turning experimental features off automatically restores 1x speed.

• Improved battle pacing: reduced enemy action delays and sped up card draw animations. Enemy unit cards no longer pop up when played, reducing interruptions during combat, while spells and hero skills are still shown.
