d'aw, i thought this meant it was changed to have a better flow, i actually quite liked the new one :[

It's a reanimated version of the classic ones now.

So there are animation changes, its a TINY bit slower and smoother looking now. You can notice it in the side angle best.

i know i asked this on the last patch but are we getting any atrium changes? 

As others have said, they mentioned in the Stream they had intended to push out Atrium locating changes, but forgot during the development, meaning it'd be coming later.

Does this affect ALL fire methods or just Willows lighter? Because if I recall the reason why it was changed to non-spreading in the first place was so that Willow could use items like the firestaff for combat purposes without fear of those fires spreading right?

The way it was added is really fun, I love it!

You can manually choose which fires to stoke, so this means you can't accidently use a long range fire to set a mob on fire and let it get out of hand.
Also, her fires that stick onto mobs don't spread, meaning you don't have to worry about messing up combat with the perk at all.

It's a total win-win. I'm stoked!!

attack animation change is nice. nice to see the new one get polished like i was thinking.

Love the gloom bell change. possessed atrium is in a good spot as a crafting ingredient now, i think.

Very cool, but not enough. If they're going with option B) Klei should go all in and complete it.

Improved Great Depths Worm’s movement smoothness for clients.

I knew I wasn't crazy! I kept thinking the great depths worm looked a bit strange.

Thanks goodness!

[Milordo]

If I understand correctly, thorns damage = 14 and digestion/eating damage = 390 right?

While testing seems good now with the numbers, but I will update more in depth in my post in the next few hours.

P.S

Guys there are sneaky changes again! New great depth worm eating, munching and gulping sounds! They're cute lol

Oooh, I wonder, is this being used for anything other than the Worm boss?

Both normal Worms and... Moleworms !

 

Also just for feedback: I'm totally fine with the current attack animations now. As long there isn't that awkward sequenced looking pause and nonchalant side smack to the back view anymore, I take it.

'This makes it so you can stoke the fire after it's been lit to change it into spreadable fire.'

someone please check if this means you can't avoid depth dweller webs anymore

We're safe... for now. Maybe not after the atrium rework though.

I'm also pretty disappointed. I felt the new animation had some good ideas. Helped especially with positioning between the deer while fighting Klaus.

[Evelo]

I am happy for Variant and other Willow mains.

Hope to see someway to "make" rabbit burrows someday. Without World Regrowth, they can be gone forever.

Exactly why I asked before this. They have already a reworked atrium, they confirmed it on the livestream, but they didn't answer what they are gonna do about it, when, why, what, ecc... it's all in my post Depths of duplicity post-mortem feedback. 

They never said it will a rework. They simply said they have something planned about the atrium. Most likely something related to how we locate it since that was the them of the question they answered

• Great Depths Worm changes:
  • Now arrives near the player.
  • Won’t arrive until after day 25.
  • Spike and digestion damage has been tuned down a little.

 

that's all? 

[Mike23Ua]

Oh dear god… does Klei just Hate me or Something?!  

Spoiler

Can we at least all agree that the boss is extremely terrible if this is the ONLY reason I’m going to fight it?

Well... What is the point of Spelunker's Bridge Kits and "Fixing" void walking?

Fixed that for you.

Could be for nothing after all. (hur dur)

Like if they want players to find the Atrium the "right" way aka by killing tentapillars, they did a rather not so good job. The main issue with people doing voidwalking is because they don't want to kill those damn pillars again and again. Sure, they having 750 hp are barely a thing but do that onto like 6 tentapillars that could be EVERYWHERE in the huge caves area are tedious as hell.

Like sure, there were some patterns when the tentapillar in the muddy biome could lead to Atrium but that's not reliable.

Bridges having 6 tiles limit is also a weird choice. I'd love it if they can go on forever and allow players to do bridge branches.

This looks amazing. Switch sadness....

• Updated player attack animation.

 

Here is a comparison of the player attack animations:

Attack - 631844 (This Patch)

Attack - 631099 (Last Patch - Depths of Duplicity Release)

Attack - 625420 (Patch Before Depths of Duplicity)

Of note, some layer orders changed between 625420 (before depths of duplicity) and 631844 (this patch).  Adjustments were also made to the swinging motion.

Also, gifs of the new items from last patch (631099):

Icker Preserve / Icker Preserve Kit / Icker Jar
