Dungeon Exiles 1.0.5

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

712d ago

Hey everyone, Gronkins here with patch 1.0.5 of Dungeon Exiles. So this is another smaller update, however, this may be one of the last for Dungeon Exiles (at least for now). Of course, if any major issues pop up, or if you have any questions I’ll still be around to help but I think it’s time I moved on from Dungeon Exiles Dungeon Exiles has grown into something far bigger than I ever really expected. For context, Dungeon Exiles was my first game and I understand it's a bit rough around the edges, and there are still issues but for the most part, it was just a game I built to learn game development. The fact Dungeon Exiles found such an audience (or an audience at all!) is something I truly never expected, so for that, I do thank all of you! I do apologise as (at least for the time being) I do not plan on supporting Dungeon Exiles with new content, classes, QoL updates, new game modes, or anything like that and I also apologise for not being able to fix all the current issues in the game but Dungeon Exiles just isn't something I enjoy working on any more However, I just want to give one final thank you to all the patient and diligent players who helped me fix many of the issues and bugs with the game and provided me with so much feedback, and of course, thank you to everyone who gave my little indie game a try! With all that said, here are the patch notes: Balance Changes Mage Abilities Brilliance (Base): Mana Regenerated Per Second: 0.2 -> 0.4 Fireball, Frostbolt, Lightning Bolt: Damage has been increased by roughly 5% at all levels Time Warp of the Paradox: Duration (Seconds): 12 -> 6 Maximum Cooldown Recovery Rate: 0% -> 3% Passive Skills Arcane Warrior: Increased Attack Damage: 14% -> 16% Battlemage: Increased Attack Damage: 12% -> 14% Elemental Strikes: Percentage of Physical Damage as Extra Lightning Damage: 30% -> 35% Rising Tempest: Increased Attack Damage per Stack: 2.5% -> 2.8% Items New Treasure Item: Temporal Hourglass Quality: Legendary +5% to Maximum Cooldown Recovery Rate 10% increased Cooldown Recovery Rate Gain 1% increased Attack Speed per 3% Cooldown Recovery Rate Cloak of Endless Night: Required Evasion for 1 Energy Shield: 4 -> 2 Achievements Outskilled: Now only requires 30 attacks to be parried to unlock (Down from 40) Bug Fixes Fixed some tooltip issues where Damage over Time effects weren’t displaying their effects properly Fixed an issue where the Shadow Dancer’s Boots weren’t unlocking correctly in the Collection Log (if you already had this item in your Collection Log you may have to reacquire it). Also if you had this item in a current run this change will cause it to incorrectly display as the Heart of the Titan. This is a visual issue only and will not affect new versions of the Shadow Dancer’s Boots Fixed a bug that caused players to gain Reroll Dice when losing a fight Quality of Life/Miscellaneous Improvements/Fixes You can now start a fight by pressing “Space” Sanctity now fully restores Energy Shield when activated On Dodge effects now state “On Dodge or Evade” Hovering over the Mana icon on the Character Sheet now states that you regenerate 2.5% of Maximum Mana per second as a base The Dark Iron Greatshield and Vanguard bonuses now specify Attack Block Chance instead of just “Block Chance” Hovering over an enemy’s name or level will display the current modifier bonus of each floor In the Collection Log, Auras now state their required class (if applicable) Closing Words To ensure you are playing on the correct version, ensure the main menu reads “1.0.5”. You may have to update, verify your game files or re-install your game Cheers, Gronkins

Currently, I’m just focusing on improving the core game and trying to get it as stable and polished as I can, so I hope you enjoy!

Dungeon Exiles 1.0.1

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

722d ago

Hey everyone, Gronkins here with patch 1.0.1. So, first of all, I’d just like to say thank you to everyone who has been playing and supporting Dungeon Exiles! Dungeon Exiles has reached so many more players than I ever expected so with that in mind, I plan on continuing to support Dungeon Exiles However the main focus of this specific patch is balance changes, QoL changes, and I’ve also added a new item and a new modifier that can be found on equipment. So let’s get into it! Quality of Life Features The dialogue skip system has been reworked. Now you can simply click on a dialogue box to skip the dialogue. Moreover, skipping the dialogue no longer speeds up the dialogue text, instead it fully completes the current dialogue Tooltips for most buffs, debuffs and skills now state exactly what effects are granted. For example, the “Resilient” modifier on enemies no longer says “Takes less Damage From Critical Strikes” but instead says “30% Reduced Extra Damage Taken From Critical Strikes” This also applies to debuffs. For example, Vulnerable no longer says “Takes Increased Damage” but now says “Takes 25% Increased Damage” Game Balance The maximum Cooldown Recovery Rate has been reduced from 95% to 75% There is now a cooldown on Crowd Control effects such as Stun, Fear and Freeze. If a character has been Stunned, Feared or Frozen, they are immune to Crowd Control effects for 4 seconds Endless Mode Balance Enemies on Floors 11-15 (Endless Mode) have had their damage reduced by roughly 12% Passive Skills Rogue Dark Adrenaline: Percentage of Attack Damage Leeched as Health: 2.5% -> 2.2% Mage Deep Thoughts: Increased Maximum Mana: 26% -> 24% Storm Chaser: Increased Maximum Mana: 18% -> 16% Synergy Bonuses Mage Archmage 1: Mana Regeneration (per Second): 0.5 -> 0.4 Archmage 8: Increased Maximum Mana: 45% -> 40% Warrior Colossus 8: Increased Maximum Health: 25% -> 30% Abilities Warrior Guardbreak has been reworked. Guardbreak has been renamed to Crush and no longer reduces the enemy’s chance to block attacks. Instead, Crush has an additional chance to deal Critical Strikes starting at 15% at level 1 Devastate (Base): Percentage of Physical Attack Damage: 140% -> 150% Mage Fireball, Frostbolt and Lightning Bolt: Mana cost per level: 2 -> 3 Additionally, the damage of Fireball, Frostbolt and Lightning Bolt has been reduced by roughly 4% at all levels Rogue Vampiric Strikes (Base): Percentage of Attack Damage Leeched as Health: 8% -> 7% Items Manaforged Heart: Maximum Mana per Intelligence: 4 -> 2 New Items: Stormguard: Treasure Item, Epic quality, Warrior only +12% chance to Block Attacks +15% Lightning Resistance Reflect 1-15 Lightning Damage to Attacker on Block Stormguard can be unlocked by earning the new Achievement “You Can Take This Back” which involves dealing 10,000 reflected damage in a single run Item Modifiers Evasion Item Modifiers have had their values reduced by -1/-1 at all Item Tiers. For example at Item Tier 1: A 14-16 Evasion roll has been reduced to 13-15 Cooldown Recovery Rate Item Modifiers have had their values reduced by -1%/0% at all Item Tiers. For example at Item Tier 1: A 3%-4% Cooldown Recovery Rate roll has been reduced to 2%-4% Moreover, Cooldown Recovery Rate Item Modifiers have been reduced by an additional 0%/-1% at Item Tier 5 New Modifier: Reflect Physical Damage to Attacker on Block. This new modifier can be found on shields Miscellenous Changes Added Resolution support for 1280x720 (16:9) and 3440x1440 (21:9) Adjusted the tooltip text for consumables to refer to the fact that Reroll Dice are not food Added a hotkey for Map toggling (The Hotkey is “M”) Added more display information about certain conditions, such as Shielded and Guarded Added more tooltip information for status effects such as Chilled, Shocked, Vulnerable, and Weak Bug Fixes/General Fixes Fixed a display bug for certain stats Fixed a typo during the Floor 3 loading screen Closing Words I just wanted to say another thank you to everyone who has checked out and played Dungeon Exiles! I truly never imagined this many people would be playing and I hope everyone is having fun! To ensure you are playing on the correct version, ensure the main menu reads “1.0.1”. You may have to update, verify your game files or re-install your game Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles Out Now!

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

726d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 1.0.0 which is the official release of Dungeon Exiles! So just to be clear, this is the release of the full version of the game and this is not an update to the demo version of Dungeon Exiles. With that out of the way, let’s get into it! New Content Two new floors have been added: The Halls of Rebirth and Varathos, City of the Dead Synergy 8 bonuses have been added for all archetypes for every class New Game Mode: Endless Upon clearing Varathos, City of the Dead (Floor 5) on any difficulty you’ll be able to select Endless Mode to continue your run and loop back to The Fallen Gate of Azamar (Floor 1) and face scaled-up enemies Nightmare Difficulty System Upon clearing Varathos, City of the Dead (Floor 5) you’ll unlock the ability to increase the difficulty of the game. The base difficulty of the game is Nightmare 0 and this scales all the way up to Nightmare 6. Each Nightmare increases the damage of all enemies (including their attack damage, attack speed, and ability damage) but also, certain Nightmares will add additional difficulty such as reducing enrage timers and adding a Resolve cost to certain room types The Nightmare system is unlocked on a per-class basis. So if you unlock Nightmare 6 as the Warrior you won’t automatically have it unlocked as the Mage. The idea is that the Nightmare system is proof of your mastery of each class, and to show off that mastery you’ll unlock a cosmetic skin for each class if you manage to beat Nightmare 6 that you'll be able to use in all future runs! Steam Achievements 44 Steam Achievements have been added. These range from things such as: beating the game on a certain class, having a certain stat, meet a certain condition, but also there are some challenge-based achievements for those who want to test themselves. Lastly, certain items can be unlocked through certain achievements New Random Events An Encounter with Fate: which allows you to trade some of your Resolve for Reroll Dice The Divine Shrine: which allows you to trade some of your Resolve for a temporary buff Equipment Items 45 new Equipment Items have been added which can be found in Shops and/or Treasure Chests, these items include: Class-specific items, treasure items, and of course, legendaries! Sound and Music 2 new combat tracks have been added 2 old combat tracks have been removed 3 combat tracks have been revamped 4 new hit variation sound effects have been added Closing Words So that’s everything for patch 1.0.0! So this is the full release of Dungeon Exiles and you can purchase and play it on Steam now! Also if you purchase the game within the first week (from launch) you can enjoy a 15% discount To ensure you are playing on the correct version, ensure the main menu reads “1.0.0”. You may have to update, verify your game files or re-install your game Lastly, I just want to say thank you to everyone who has been following me and supporting me on this journey and I hope you all enjoy the game and have fun! Cheers, Gronkins

In case you haven’t heard, the official release date of Dungeon Exiles is the 8th of August and the Steam page has been updated with this information. But with that out of the way, let’s get into the patch notes! Game Balance Evasion has been reworked to follow an entropy-based system so over time evading will be more consistent.

Rusty Dagger: No longer provides increased Attack Speed Instead, it provides extra Physical Damage to Attacks, starting at 1 - 1 at Item Tier 1 Serpent’s Fang: Now requires Nightmare 2 to unlock, which means it will no longer be available in the demo version of Dungeon Exiles. To compensate, a new item will be replacing it New Item: Sturdy Boots Requires: Rogue Provides Health and Evasion Consumable Items Some of the consumable items have been adjusted so they feel a bit more unique Potion of Might: Increased Damage: 65% -> 50% Critical Strike Chance: 0% -> 25% Potion of Haste: Increased Attack Speed: 60% -> 50% Increased Cooldown Recovery Rate: 0% -> 20% Potion of Regeneration: Percentage of Health Regenerated per second: 5% -> 3% Duration (Seconds): 6 -> 10 Potion of Mana Regeneration: Duration (Seconds): 6 -> 8 Miscelleneous Changes Added new text to display the current floor The attack animations for the Rogue and Mage have been improved Added a new option under Settings to auto-skip non-combat dialogue Added a Dodge sound effect The credits panel now correctly closes when pressing Escape Updated some ability tooltips so they no longer say “Activates upon reaching full Mana” Bug Fixes The settings panel now correctly closes when pressing Escape Fixed a bug that caused the volume settings to be louder than intended when creating a new save file Fixed a bug that caused enemies to spawn with the Flametouched modifier more often than intended Closing Words So that’s everything for patch 0.5.4! If you are enjoying Dungeon Exiles remember to wishlist it and check out the full version when it releases on the 8th of August! To ensure you are playing on the correct version, ensure the main menu reads “0.5.4”. You may have to update, verify your game files or re-install your game I hope you enjoy the new update!

Dungeon Exiles 0.5.2

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

758d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 0.5.2 of Dungeon Exiles! The main feature of this update is the new Collection Log where you can see all the different items and abilities you’ve unlocked throughout your runs. Depending on how things go this may be the final major update before the release of Dungeon Exiles. Going forward I plan on polishing and refining the game as much as I can, but with all that out of the way, let’s get into the new update! The Collection Log This is the most significant part of patch 0.5.2. Now you can view your Collection Log on the main menu where you can see every item and ability you’ve unlocked during a run! An item or ability will only be added to the Collection Log if it has been collected and the game has been saved. The game will only save on the following conditions: If the player descends to a new floor If the player dies If the player chooses to end their run from the pause menu So if you close the game in the middle of a floor, the current floor progress will not be saved (meaning that you'll be sent back to the start of the floor). This is due to both technical limitations and an attempt to de-incentivise save scumming Saving and Loading As part of patch 0.5.2, your run progress will be saved between sessions, so you’ll be able to resume and continue a run (at the beginning of the last floor you reached) even if you close and then reopen the game As part of these changes, the Save data format has changed significantly so all previous progress will be cleared as you’ll need to create a new save. This means that for older players you’ll need to re-unlock the Rogue and/or Mage if they had been previously unlocked. I apologise for any inconvenience this has caused Room Changes The Dark Crossroads room (The red question mark) has been disabled. Currently, I don’t feel like most of the chaos cards are worth taking so I’ve disabled it for now and may re-introduce it at a later date The Divine Atlar room has also been disabled. I didn’t feel like it was ever exciting or interesting to select a Resolve passive, so they’ve been removed Game Balance I’ve significantly increased the speed of the game, all players and enemies have had their attack speeds increased and their cooldowns reduced. Moreover, I’ve increased base mana regeneration to compensate. So overall balance should feel very different, for the most part, enemies should be somewhat easier but I’ll be monitoring the new game balance in updates to come Cooldown Recovery The maximum Cooldown Recovery Rate is now capped at 95% Abilities now have a minimum cooldown of 0.25 seconds Critical Strike Chance The Critical Strike Chance changes of patch 0.4.8 have been reverted. Critical Strike Chance will no longer be multiplicative and will be additive once more, however the numbers have been reduced to ensure balance. Lastly, Precision has been changed to keep its multiplicative Critical Strike Chance, turning a previously weak Aura into a powerful option for Crit scaling. I’ll be monitoring the Critical Strike Chance changes in updates to come Traits Trait amounts have been standardised. For the Demo of Dungeon Exiles, all traits will only go up to a maximum of 6 synergy bonuses, however for the full release of the game, they will all go to 8 Sentinel has been renamed to Juggernaut Abilities The Mage’s Timewarp Ability has been removed Sunder Vulnerable Chance: 100% -> 20% Items A new consumable item called Bag of Dice can now be purchased from shops for 45 gold. This is a consumable item that will grant 1-3 Reroll Dice on use Miscellenous Changes Reroll Dice no longer have a cap When rerolling items or abilities you can now choose to spend Reroll Dice or Gold You can now reroll Treasure Chests using Reroll Dice The camera has been slightly zoomed in Resolution and windowed settings have been added Closing Words So that is everything for patch 0.5.2! The last thing I wanted to quickly mention was the release date of Dungeon Exiles. So, assuming no delays or external factors, Dungeon Exiles should hopefully be released early August (so next month from the date of writing this). Of course, as I get closer to that date I’ll share any updates in regards to the release date, but that’s all for now! To play the newest update, ensure the main menu reads “0.5.2”. You may have to update, validate game files or re-install your game to play the newest update Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.5.1

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

777d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 0.5.1 of Dungeon Exiles! So, this is the first patch winding down from the Steam Next Fest. Firstly, let me just say thank you to everyone who played Dungeon Exiles during the Next Fest and gave me valuable feedback! So, I have some important news in these patch notes as well so be sure to read it! Important News So for the full version of Dungeon Exiles, I’m changing the maximum number of floors from 10 to 5. The reasoning is that each floor can take 10-20 minutes, meaning that 10 floors would be too long for a single run. This doesn’t affect the demo (as the demo only has 3 floors) but this is something to keep in mind for the release of Dungeon Exiles. However, this news does mean that the full release of Dungeon Exiles will come sooner, but I’ll give you more information on that closer to the date. With all that out of the way, here is the rest of the patch notes! Abilities In the original version of Dungeon Exiles, I had planned 10 floors of content with many of the later floors being themed about elemental damage (such as Cold, Fire and Lightning). However, these plans have changed, and elemental damage is quite uncommon on floors 1-5, meaning Protection of Elements was quite weak. So I’m changing Protection of Elements to provide resistance against both Nature and Shadow damage Protection of Elements: Elemental Resistance: 28% -> 12% Nature Resistance: 0% -> 12% Shadow Resistance: 0% -> 12% Elemental Resistance per level: 3% -> 2% Nature Resistance per level: 0% -> 2% Shadow Resistance per level: 0% -> 2% Passive skills Warrior Mage Guard no longer grants 12% increased Attack Damage, it instead grants Restore 2% of Maximum Mana on Block Lord of Steel no longer grants 1% increased Attack Damage per Energy Shield, it now grants 20% increased Attack Damage while Shielded. Lord of Steel is no longer Rare rarity, it is now Uncommon rarity Traits Alchemist 6: Mana restored on Poison: 5% -> 2.5% Enrage Mechanics The enrage mechanic has been refined. There is now a timer that shows up for every fight so you can see how long you have. The enrage timer varies from regular enemies, to elites, to bosses, and changes per floor. The enrage mechanic isn’t new, however, the old timer was far too forgiving (50 seconds for a regular enemy), the intent is that you need to have a more balanced build and can’t purely focus on defence and defeat your enemies through a battle of attrition Item Implicit Modifiers The implicit modifiers of items now scale with Item Tier, and unlike the random modifiers, implicit modifiers are guaranteed based on the Item Tier. So for example, the armour rolls of a Tier 3 Avential Helmet will always be higher than the rolls of a Tier 1 Avential Helmet (Of course, a poorly rolled Tier 3 Helmet may be similar to equal to a Tier 3 Helmet). To compensate for these changes a few items have had their base implicit stats adjusted: Rusty Dagger: Increased Attack Speed: 5%-10% -> 4%-10% Leather Belt: Maximum Health: 5-8 -> 4-8 Mana Crystal: Maxmimum Mana: 5-10 -> 6-8 Serpent’s Eye Charm: Increased Critical Strike Chance: 20%-35% -> 20%-30% Daring Bucker: Gold Cost: 60 -> 65 Block Chance: 3%-6% -> 3%-5% Item Modifiers Health on Dodge (New): Tier 1: 3-4 Tier 2: 4-5 Tier 3: 5-6 Health on Dodge can roll on Evasion-based equipment Energy Shield on Cast: Tier 2: 1-3 -> 2-3 Tier 3: 2-3 -> 2-4 Items Aspect of Nature: Nature Resistance required per 0.1% Health Regeneration: 5% -> 10% Miscellaneous Changes Adjusted the cursor so it is brighter Re-added Health bar chip-away effect The Battle Tactics tutorial now also shows up once, in future fights, it has been replaced by a simple “Ready” button You can now speed up non-combat dialogue by pressing the new button that appears within the dialogue box Bug Fixes Fixed a bug where the shop menu wasn’t closing properly Fixed a bug where certain Health Regeneration amounts were considered ints for the purpose of upgrading (for example, 1 Health Regeneration on an item when upgraded wouldn’t provide 1.3 after the upgrade) Fixed a bug that caused weapon-based abilities to gain twice as much scaling from the generic increased damage stat Closing Words So that is everything for patch 0.5.1! Again I just want to say thank you to everyone who tried out Dungeon Exiles during the Next Fest and I hope you all enjoyed it! To play the newest update, ensure the main menu reads “0.5.1”. You may have to update, validate game files or re-install your game to play the newest update. Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.5.0

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

785d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 0.5.0 of Dungeon Exiles! This has been a pretty major update in preparation for the Steam Next Fest! This update mainly features revamps of old systems and graphical improvements so let’s get right into it! Graphical Updates Lighting Effects A basic lighting system has been implemented in Dungeon Exiles so the world feels a lot darker and more immersive. Ability Animations Most abilities have had new animations applied, such as spell and buff effects, or slashing animations for attack-based abilities. In the future I want each ability to have a unique animation, but currently some abilities use the same animation and a few abilities still lack animations entirely, but it’s something I’ll fix in the future. Random Events Random events have been reworked to be more engaging and provide a more immersive experience. Random events now feature NPCs and/or interactable objects. Removed Random Events: Hidden Stash Divine Fountain New/Re-added Random Events: Mysterious Potion Seller Ancient Forge Game Balance Passive Skills Rogue New: Toxic Application (Alchemist): Restore 1% of Maximum Health on Poison New: Lifeline (Bloodreaper): Restore 3 Health on Hit while below 50% Health Passive Skill Balance Rogue Leeching Strikes: 1% Percent Health Restored on Hit -> 1.5% Percent Health Restored on Hit Afterimage: 5 Health on Dodge -> 6 Health on Dodge Aspect of the Serpent: No longer grants 12% Nature Resistance, it instead grants 12% increased Maximum Mana Blade Dance: 30% chance to Gain 2 Overguard on Hit -> 35% chance to Gain 2 Overguard on Hit Crimson Thirst: 1.8% Attack Damage Leeched as Life -> 2% Attack Damage Leeched As Life Cruel Momentum: 5-second duration -> 6-second duration Envenom: 8% increased Mana Regeneration -> 14% increased Mana Regeneration Dark Adrenaline: No longer grants 1.2% Health Regenerated per second for 3 seconds after Critical Strike. It instead grants 3.5% Attack Damage Leeched as Health for 5 seconds after Attack Critical Strike Trait Balance Rogue Bloodreaper 1: No longer grants 12 Maximum Health, it instead grants 1 Health gained on Hit Assassin 3: No longer grants 5% Armour Shred on Critical Strike, it instead grants Restore 1% of Maximum Health on Attack Critical Strike Warrior Berserker 3: No longer grants 12% increased Armour while below 50% Health. It instead grants Restore 2% of Maximum Mana on Attack Critical Strike. Ability Balance Rogue: Cheap Shot: Base damage increased from 40% to 50%. Sinister Strike: Base damage increased from 90% to 100%. Mage: Time Warp: Base cooldown reduced by 4 seconds. Item Modifiers Health Regeneration (Per second): Tier 1: 0.2-0.5 -> 0.3-0.6 Tier 2: 0.3-0.6 -> 0.4-0.8 Tier 3: 0.4-0.8 -> 0.5-1 Maximum Mana: Tier 1: 6-10 -> 8-10 Increased Mana Regeneration Tier 1: 10%-18% -> 14%-18% Tier 2: 12%-20% -> 16%-22% Tier 3: 14%-22% -> 18%-26% Legendaries I want all legendaries to feel extremely powerful and build defining, so I’m giving a few some extra help. Forgemaster’s Hammer: 20% of Physical Damage as Extra Fire Damage -> 25% of Physical as Extra Fire Damage Lifedrinker: 15% increased Attack Speed -> 20% increased Attack Speed Lifedrinker: Critical Strike Chance Needed for 1% Lifesteal: 10% -> 7.5% Manaforged Heart: 20% of Mana as Extra Health -> 25% of Mana as Extra Health Manaforged Heart: 20% increased Mana Regeneration -> 30% increased Mana Regeneration Enemy Balance Blight Caller’s Spreading Plague Damage: 21-26 -> 22-25 Enemy Modifiers Balancing There was a bug that caused percent increases and reductions to maximum Health to not correctly apply so I’m nerfing a few enemy modifiers to compensate. Regenerator: 0.075% Health per Second -> 0.05% Health per Second Hearty: 30% increased Maximum Health -> 25% increased Maximum Health Shielded: 30% Health as ES -> 20% Health as ES Items Radiant Torch can no longer be found as random loot from enemies. Potion of Mana Regeneration no longer grants 80% increased Mana Regeneration, it instead grants Regenerate 5% of Maximum Mana per Second Resolve Changes The Resolve system has been simplified. Resolve no longer grants any buffs or debuffs, and you no longer lose Resolve from exploration, but you still lose Resolve from losing fights (and losing to a boss will still end your run). The intent is that Resolve will be mainly used as a resource for engaging with Random Events and other similar systems. Miscellaneous Changes The Rogue has new art. You can now see your floor completion for each class on the class selection screen. Bug Fixes Fixed a bug that caused increases and reductions to Maximum Health to not correctly apply. In short, all characters (players and enemies) were gaining less health from passives than they should have. This bug (I believe) was introduced in patch 0.4.7 and I’ll be monitoring how this affects game balance very closely. Closing Words So that is everything for patch 0.5.0! The main focus of this update was to add as much polish and juice to the game as I could before the Steam Next Fest. There is still a lot more than I want to do, but this is as much as I could do given the timeframe. To play the newest update, ensure the main menu reads “0.5.0”. You may have to update, validate game files or re-install your game to play the newest update. Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.4.8

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

801d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 0.4.8 of Dungeon Exiles! I’m very excited as this update fixes a lot of issues with the game, but also introduces the Mage class so let’s get into it! New Playable Class: The Mage The Mage is an enigmatic caster, specialising in dealing elemental damage with spells and protecting themselves with magical Energy Shield. The Mage has all new abilities, traits, passive skills and items. To unlock the Mage you need to defeat the boss of the third floor. If you have beaten the boss of the third floor already (as of patch 0.4.7) you will already have the Mage unlocked. Critical Strike Rework Crit builds have been a consistent problem in Dungeon Exiles, even back in the old itch.io days. Due to the way Critical Strike Chance worked in Dungeon Exiles, it was very easy to reach high amounts of Critical Strike Chance to deal overwhelming amounts of damage. This wasn’t too much of an issue with the Warrior, however with the Rogue back in the game I noticed that crit-centric builds were vastly overperforming compared to other build archetypes for the amount of investment required. Players who were able to approach 100% Critical Strike Chance were able to kill bosses in less than 10 seconds which is not intended, so I’ve decided to rework crit which will be a sizable nerf to all current crit-builds. With the old system, it was too easy to reach high crit chance amounts. Playing as the Rogue (7.5% Crit chance), you could pick up a Level 1 Precision (12% Crit Chance), a Level 1 Cruel Intent (25% Crit Chance) and the Lifedrinker legendary sword (15% Crit Chance) for a total of 59.5% Crit Chance without having a single passive or non-treasure item. Crit has a place in Dungeon Exiles, but it’s too easy to reach high numbers currently, so I’m introducing a new stat called Increased Critical Strike Chance which is a percentage stat that increases your Critical Strike Chance based on your base Critical Strike Chance. For example, the Warrior starts with 5% Critical Strike Chance, and if they gained 50% Increased Critical Strike Chance that would increase the base by 50%, resulting in a total of 7.5% Critical Strike Chance. This new stat has replaced all current instances of the old Critical Strike Chance stat and the values have been rebalanced accordingly. I’m aware that this is a large nerf to crit builds so I will be monitoring their strength closely in the following updates and will provide buffs as necessary. I believe this change is necessary as full-crit builds were able to deal significantly more damage than any other archetype with relatively low investment. Lastly, as part of this change, the Rogue’s starting Critical Strike Chance has been reduced from 7.5% to 6%. Class Balance Synergy Adjustments Trait bonuses have been changed to occur at every 2 passives. For example, bonuses for Champion are no longer unlocked at 2, 3, 4 and 6, but instead, they are unlocked at 2, 4, 6, and 8. This change was made to make upgrades more consistent, but also in preparation for the Early Access release of Dungeon Exiles as the full game will be significantly longer than the demo. I am aware that this is a nerf to synergy bonuses across the board, so I will be monitoring player power in the following updates and will provide buffs if necessary. It is worth noting that this change means some 8 synergy bonuses are not currently achievable so they have been removed temporarily until more passive skills are added. Synergy Balance Assassin 2 Armour Penetration: 30% -> 25% Assassin 4 no longer grants 0.5% of Maximum Health on Critical Strike, instead, it reduces the target’s armour by 5% for 6 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. Bloodreaper 1 Bleed Chance: 12% -> 15% Bloodreaper 2 no longer grants 1 Health gained on Hit Colossus 1 now also grants 0.3 Health Regenerated per Second. Passive Skills Warrior has a new passive skill called Brutal Block for Gladiator which inflicts a bleed whenever you block an attack. Abilities There is now a global cooldown when an ability is activated. If an ability is currently not on cooldown and an ability is cast, it will go on a 1-second global cooldown. This is to prevent multiple spells or abilities from activating at the same time. Resolve Changes Losing a fight no longer grants any XP or Gold. Enemy Balance Blight Caller’s Spreading Plague Damage: 20-26 -> 21-26 Items Lifedrinker Increased Attack Speed: 20% -> 15% Critical Strike Chance per 1% Attack Leech: 15% -> 12% Arcanist’s Flamesword Implicit Fire Damage: 1-2 to 2-4 -> 1-2 to 2-3 Serpent's Fang Implicit Nature Damage: 1-2 to 3-4 -> 1-2 to 3-3 Radiant Torch Resolve Gained: 30 -> 25 Keen Spirit Blade and Temporal Hourglass can no longer be found in shops or as rewards from random events. Class Specific Items Swift Rapier and General’s Battle Axe are now Warrior and Rogue-specific items Goliath’s Bracers and Avential Helmet are now Warrior-specific items Serpent's Fang and Ranger’s Gambeson are now Rogue-specific items Mage can now find the following class-specific items Volcanic Fireorb which grants added fire spell damage Staff of Storms which grants added lightning spell damage Frost Orb which grants added cold spell damage Sage’s Robe which grants Maximum Energy Shield Item Modifiers Health gain on Hit can no longer roll on items lower than tier 3. Flat attack stats (such as Added Cold Damage to Attacks or Added Fire Damage to Attacks) have been slightly reduced to match the numbers of Physical attack stats. The Shield Signet is now considered an Energy Shield item and can roll Energy Shield modifiers. Enemy Modifiers Two new modifiers can spawn on enemies starting on Floor 3: Bonebreaker: Attacks have a chance to Stun. Stun works exactly how you would expect, a character who is stunned cannot attack or use spells or abilities. Spiked Carapace: Reflects damage when hit by an attack. Miscellaneous Changes Visual stats on the character select screen can now be hovered over for more information. Certain interfaces such as the Character Sheet, Skillbook, Spellbook, and Equipment Screen now have a close button. Protection of Elements has new art. Bug Fixes Fixed a bug where Level 4 Protection of Elements was incorrectly giving the bonuses of Level 3 Protection of Elements. Fixed a bug where Level 3 Precision had no upgrades. Fixed a bug where Champion 2 was granting 0% chance to gain Overguard. Fixed a bug with the tooltip for Agility. Fixed a bug that allowed players to rest and forge at the same campfire. Closing Words So that is everything for patch 0.4.8! This patch has a lot of changes so feel free to try it out and check out the new Mage class! So this is likely to be the last ‘major’ patch until the June Steam Next Fest (only two weeks from now!). Until then, my focus is going to be on refining the game, fixing bugs, balancing and general polishing. To play the newest update, ensure the main menu reads “0.4.8”. You may have to update, validate game files or re-install your game to play the newest update. Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.4.7

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

809d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 0.4.7! The main focus of this update is the returning Rogue class and Legendary items! So, let’s just get right into it: Returning class: The Rogue In patch 0.4.7 the Rogue returns… again… With all new traits, synergies and abilities. The Rogue is squishier than the Warrior, but in turn boasts high damage with critical strikes and poisons and can deftly evade attacks. To unlock the Rogue you’ll need to defeat the boss of the second floor. Game balance As more classes get introduced into Dungeon Exiles, I need to account for differing power levels (especially at the start of the game). So, across the board, all non-boss enemies have had their damage reduced by roughly 5%-10%. The idea is that the earlier floors will be easier as you get your build off the ground, but later floors are intended to be quite difficult and will require a powerful build. Game Mechanics Shield Shield has been slightly reworked in patch 0.4.7 and has been renamed to Energy Shield. Energy Shield is now represented as a light blue barrier that covers your health bar. When displaying your current Energy Shield it is added to your current health total. So for example, if you have 100 Maximum Health and you full health plus 50 Energy Shield it will be displayed as: 150/100 Lastly, you’ll no longer be able to exceed your Maximum Energy Shield through restoration effects. I believe this will make Energy Shield a more intuitive mechanic. Overguard You may be thinking that a change like that will be a large nerf to Warrior as they typically don’t have much Maximum Energy Shield and thus effects like Steelskin which grants shield will be significantly weaker. To address this issue a new mechanic called Overguard has been introduced which works similarly to how the old Shield system worked. Overguard will protect both your Health and Energy Shield from damage until it is depleted. Also, it’s worth noting that Overguard has a maximum equal to your Maximum Health + Energy Shield. For example, if you had 100 Health and 100 Energy Shield, then you would be able to gain up to a maximum of 200 Overguard. Certain effects that used to grant Shield (such as Steelskin) now grant Overguard. Chaos Cards The Lone Survivor has been renamed to the Survivor. The Survivor no longer grants -75 to Maximum Shield, and it no longer grants 15 Shield Regenerated per 5 seconds. The Survivor now grants 50% reduced Maximum Energy Shield, additionally, it now grants 1.5% of Maximum Health Regenerated per Second. Items Item tiers To really lean into the fantasy of character-building and progression, item tiers have been introduced. Items that are found in shops have an item tier that increases as you descend floors, item tiers allow items to roll higher and higher stats. The idea is that as you progress further in the dungeon you’ll find better items which you allow your character to scale even harder. Treasure Items Epics Crown of Celestial Insight no longer grants 15% Reduced Extra Damage taken from Critical Strikes. It now grants +12 to Maximum Energy Shield. Aetheric Essence Stone no longer grants 10% Increased Cooldown Recovery Rate. It now grants +18 to Maximum Mana. New: Evening Shroud. Gives +4 to Dexterity, +20 to Evasion and +12 to Maximum Health. Legendaries In patch 0.4.7 you’ll be able to find legendaries in treasure chests. Currently, they are a guaranteed spawn on floor 3. Legendaries are very powerful items that provide players with new avenues to scale their character. Stats Evasion (New) It’s worth noting that Evading and Dodging a hit are identical mechanics-wise. Evading hit will still cause all On-Dodge effects to trigger and just for full clarity, if a hit is Dodged or Evaded it means that no damage is taken but also it will not trigger On-Hit effects for the enemy (such as lifesteal) but it will also not trigger When-Hit effects for the player (such as thorns). Evasion and Dodge do not stack additively. Instead, if you fail to Evade an attack you’ll perform an additional Dodge roll to see if the attack is Dodged and visa-versa. Essentially if you have 50% chance to Evade and 50% chance to Dodge this does not equal 100% chance to avoid damage, instead with 50% Evasion and 50% Dodge your chance to avoid damage is roughly 75%. Traits Sentinel 4 no longer grants 8% of Maximum Health as Extra Shield. It instead grants 8% more Armour. Bug Fixes Fixed a bug that allowed level 4 abilities to show up when upgrading even if the base ability is at max level. Misc Fixed the names of certain upgraded abilities so they reflect their upgraded nature. Closing Words So that is everything for patch 0.4.7! Give the Rogue a try and let me know what you think! To play the newest update, ensure the main menu reads “0.4.7”. You may have to update, validate game files or re-install your game to play the newest update. Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.4.6

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

816d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 0.4.6 of Dungeon Exiles. The main focus of this update was to introduce an ability upgrade system so let’s get into it! Ability Upgrade System Every second level you’ll now be offered the option to either select a new ability or upgrade an old one. Abilities can be upgraded to a maximum level of 5. Upgrading an ability increases its strength, but also its Mana cost. The Mana Reservation of Auras does not increase with level, so to compensate level 1 Auras have been nerfed slightly. When getting an ability to maximum level you’ll be presented with up to three choices on how to modify the ability. The intent is that all abilities will have a total of three choices, but currently, some abilities only have two upgrade paths. It’s worth noting that in the demo of Dungeon Exiles, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to get many abilities to maximum level in a single run as the full version of Dungeon Exiles will be significantly longer and I don’t want to balance abilities around the shorter duration of the demo Balance Changes Enemies Necromancer’s Shadowbolt Fear chance: 50% -> 40% Floor 3 non-boss enemies have had their damage reduced by roughly 5% Traits Sentinel 4 no longer grants 8% of Maximum Health as Extra Maximum Shield, it instead grants 1% increased Attack Damage per 8 Armour Sentinel 8 has been reduced to Sentinel 6. Additionally, the new Sentinel 6 now grants 8% of Maximum Health as Extra Maximum Shield Champion 3 no longer grants 1% increased Cooldown Recovery per stack. Champion 3’s Mana Regeneration per stack has been increased from 2.5% to 3%. Passives Inspired Strikes Increased Ability Damage: 25% -> 20% Bug Fixes Fixed a bug that allowed players to cast spells and abilities while Frozen or Feared. Closing Words So this is everything for patch 0.4.6! The ability upgrade system likely won’t have the most impact on the demo of Dungeon Exiles, but this update is more so for laying down the groundwork for the full release of the game, as well as the Early Access version which is steadily approaching To play the newest update, ensure the main menu reads “0.4.6”. You may have to update, validate game files or re-install your game to play the newest update. Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.4.5

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

825d ago

Hello everyone, Gronkins here with patch 0.4.5 for Dungeon Exiles. So the main focus of this update was to make updates to the Resolve system so it feels more interesting as well as adjustments to the map to give players even more choice in how they want to tackle each run. So, here are some of the specific changes: Resolve Changes Starting Maximum Resolve has been reduced from 200 to 100. Starting current Resolve has been increased from 50% to 100%. Resolve loss from losing fights has been reduced from 35 to 25. Resolve gained from resting at a Campfire has been increased from 20% to 35%. Players now gain a stacking debuff causing them to start each combat slightly damaged based on their Resolve levels, beginning when the player drops below 50% of Maximum Resolve. The idea behind this change is that Resolve now has an impact on combat encounters Map Adjustments New Room Variations New combat room variations can now spawn on the map, providing increased rewards for more risk. The following new room variations have been added: XP: Enemies grant increased XP and spawn with 1 additional modifier. Costs 8 Resolve Gold: Enemies drop increased Gold and spawn with 1 additional modifier. Costs 8 Resolve Reroll: Enemies grant 1-3 Reroll Dice and spawn with 1 additional modifier. Costs 8 Resolve Elites Elites are no longer guaranteed to spawn on the 9th column on the map. Elites once again randomly spawn. Elite node’s Resolve cost has been increased from 5 to 12. Divine Altar Divine Altars have been reworked to no longer grant temporary buffs. Instead, they grant passives related to Resolve. Balance Changes Random Potions Enemies now have a 25% chance to drop a potion when defeated. The idea is that players have another avenue of decision-making when it comes to traversing the map and making meaningful decisions when engaging in fights Random Events Various random events, such as the Wandering Cleric, have had their Resolve gains slightly reduced. Enemy Balance Floor 1: Elites have had their damage slightly increased. Floor 2: Enemy balance remains the same. Floor 3: Most enemies (apart from the Blightcaller) have had their damage slightly reduced. Across the board, enemies yield roughly 5%-10% less experience. Moreover, Floor 1 enemies now drop roughly 5 less Gold on average. Player Balance Abilities Devastate’s damage scaling has been reduced from 150% to 140%. Traits Berserker 3 no longer gives 18% increased Physical Damage. Instead, it provides 15% increased Armour while below 50% Health. Vanguard 3’s duration has been increased from 10 seconds to 20 seconds and has been swapped to Vanguard 4. The new Vanguard 3 instead provides 1% increased Attack Damage per 3% Block Chance. Miscellaneous Changes/Fixes There is now a 1-second delay on gaining XP after being defeated by an enemy to prevent cases where you level-up immediately after losing a fight. Bug Fixes Attempting to fix a bug that occurs when both the player and enemy reach zero health at the same time, which causes the enemy to display zero hitpoints. Closing Words So that is everything for patch 0.4.5! Feel free to give it a try and let me know what you think! To play the newest update, ensure the main menu reads “0.4.5”. You may have to update, validate game files or re-install your game to play the newest update. Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.4.4 (Steam Demo)

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

833d ago

Hello everyone, it’s been a while but I’m very excited to announce patch 0.4.4 of Dungeon Exiles which also means the Steam demo is returning! So feel free to play the demo for free and let me know what you think! Anyway, patch 0.4.4 has changed Dungeon Exiles significantly so I’ll be going over some of the major changes. Resolve System In Dungeon Exiles 0.4.4 health is no longer persistent across rooms, instead, you’ll manage a new resource called Resolve which represents your mental fortitude against the horrors of the dungeon. If you lose all of your Resolve your run is over! A small amount of Resolve is lost whenever you engage in a combat encounter, and a greater amount is lost if you lose a fight. It’s worth noting that if you lose to a Boss you’ll lose all of your Resolve regardless, so be careful! Resolve can also be gained and lost through certain random events. If you are feeling lucky you can decide to risk some of your Resolve for greater rewards in certain events, or you can just take what you’re offered. The idea behind the Resolve system is that, firstly, it makes the game a lot easier to balance as it’s less strict on how much damage a player takes in an encounter, all that matters is winning or losing. Secondly, it allows for a lot more freedom when traversing the map as you won’t be limited to your dwindling health pool. Item System Items from shops are now randomly generated with random stats. They can spawn from any rarity from Basic all the way to Epic! The rarity of an item determines its cost and number of modifiers. You’ll be able to upgrade your shop items at a campfire which will increase an item’s stats by 30%, however, you won’t be able to upgrade Treasure items (items that come from chests). The idea behind the random item system is that it makes each shop feel a lot more interesting as you’ll never know what you’ll find! As such, it adds to the variability and replayability of the game. Also, speaking of items, consumables have been changed. Consumables are now a lot cheaper, and a lot more powerful but only last for a few seconds instead of multiple fights. The idea is that you can use consumables in the middle of combat to turn the tide of a fight and give players a bit more agency in interacting with enemies. Game Balance The balance of Dungeon Exiles has changed significantly due to the Resolve system, as such balance is something I’ll be looking at closely in the following days/weeks as players try out the new version of Dungeon Exiles. So again, if you have any thoughts or feedback feel free to let me know! Bug Fixes A bug that prevented Arena Fighter (the passive that grants stacking Block chance when applying a Bleed) has been fixed, so conditional effects that trigger when applying a Bleed (or any Status Effect) should be working correctly now. Known Issues There are known issues in regards to playing Dungeon Exiles on a non-16:9 resolution, and on 4K resolution, I am aware but unsure of when I’ll get around to fixing them. I appreciate your understanding if you are affected by these issues. Closing Words This is yet another significant change to Dungeon Exiles, but hopefully, future updates won’t be so game-changing so things will have time to settle. So if you have any feedback feel free to let me know! You can leave your comments here, on the Steam forums, or you can join the Discord server. To ensure you are playing on the correct version, ensure the main menu reads “0.4.4”. You may have to update, verify your game files or re-install your game. I hope you enjoy the new update! Cheers, Gronkins

Dungeon Exiles 0.4.3

Gronkinssteam_community_announcements

Hello everyone! Gronkins here with patch 0.4.3 of Dungeon Exiles! So, this patch is a major change to a lot of the balance of Dungeon Exiles (such as enemies, passives and abilities), the game has been changed to be a lot faster and abilities have been completely reworked, and also we now have a Discord server, so let’s get into it! Ability Rework Characters now start with full mana at the start of combat. Abilities now have cooldowns and mana costs. New stats and items have been added to accommodate this change, such as Increased Maximum Mana and Cooldown Recovery. A second ability can be chosen after defeating The Dread Marshal. The Warrior’s starting ability has been changed to Sunder, which is a melee attack that inflicts Vulnerable (which causes increased damage taken). Essentially the ability system has been changed from something in the style of Team Fight Tactics, to something more reminiscent of World of Warcraft (however, it is still all automatic though). Lastly, a new UI button has been added to view your Spells and Abilities. Game Balance Most characters in the game have had their attack speed increased to reduce the duration of fights. Most enemies have had their health and damage numbers rebalanced and the Warrior’s passives have been buffed to compensate for this change. The intention is that each fight will be a lot quicker so the game feels more engaging and that a loss will feel less punishing. In order for me to gather feedback on the ability rework, the Mage and Rogue have been made unavailable for now, so feedback can be focused on the Warrior and the new ability system. The idea is that if players like the new ability system I can continue to refine it and then re-introduce the other classes in later updates. Bug Fixes Sound settings should no longer reset after you die or return to the main menu. I am aware of an issue that causes some of the tracks to start and stop abruptly. Closing Words The game may feel very different after this update so I’m very open to hearing feedback on it and what you like and dislike about it. Just note that some features (such as re-ordering abilities) haven’t been implemented yet because I want to ensure that the new ability system is working before going in and refining it. To ensure you are playing on the correct version, ensure the main menu reads “0.4.3”. You may have to update, verify your game files or re-install your game. Feel free to join the Discord and I hope you enjoy the new update! Cheers, Gronkins
