Fixes and Improvements

  • The A Trip Down Memory Lane Challenge no longer requires you to complete Atlas Memories that do not exist, and the number of completed Atlas Memories required has been reduced to four. Using the /recheck_achievements command will complete this challenge if you have already completed four or five Atlas Memories.

  • Fixed a client crash with the Arachnomorph Pet microtransactions.
  • Fixed an instance crash in The Tower of Ordeals.


Edit: There was a problem with the fix to the A Trip Down Memory Lane Challenge and it was removed, we will fix this in an upcoming patch.

Nice!
Thank you
ok
Thank you.
MEH
woooo
Here we go
Great step in the right direction, would love to see some work done on offensive mods. Monster damage is very spikey.

We could use a nerf to some of those stacking values, and perhaps a small buff to all rare monster base stats to compensate. If the current damage ranges are 1 to 100, I feel something closer to 30 to 60 would be a better experience. More consistency, fewer meaningless/harmless monsters, less wildly overpowered vanilla archnemesis combinations going bonkers with other modifiers due to unlucky rolls. (Variance is good, one shots are not)

Put some of the relative danger back into map mods and league mechanics to make them feel impactful again, rather than being all in RNG archnemesis stacking.
