[Game Update] - 645651

Update Information:

Changes

• Wortox
  • Overloading with excessively large amounts of Souls will increase sanity losses depending on how many excess Souls are removed from the overload.
  • Knabsack has been removed from the Storage Solutions crafting filter.
  • Naughty Inclination will now reduce the healing power received from Souls, but will not reduce the healing power given to others.
    • In play tests the healing received by other players being reduced was unclear as to why it was not as high as expected, so it was removed in the last hotfix as a blanket change for both inclinations. This change brings the concept back in for its intended goal. Now when Wortox players go into the naughty inclination they do it knowing of their own reduced healing but other players will get what they expect Soul heals to give.
  • Shadow Harvester area damage will no longer hit walls outside of PvP.
  • Wortox Decoys will now spawn every first Soul Hop even if it does not distract anything.
    • Play tests were showing players expecting this to always happen without needing to have something aggressive on the player nearby.
  • Opening a Soul Jar will now expire all Soul Echo timers so that they may be immediately added into a Jar.
• Wendy 
  • Grave Beautification now lets Wendy pick Evil Flowers safely.
  • Increased the rate the Sisturn overheals Abigail.
  • Gestalt Abigail’s changes:
    • Damage has been lowered.
    • She is no longer untargetable during her attack.
    • When she drops below 25% health, she stops attacking until her health goes above 25%.
    • If her health goes from above 25% to 0 in one attack, she will live at 1 health.
    • Vex time has increased a little.
  • New skill path added: Mourning Glory
    • Level 1: Refine Butterfly Wings back into Butterflies spending Mourning Glory.
    • Level 2: Craft hat made from Mourning Glory that lets the wearer drink Elixirs. These have similar but lesser effects than when used on a pure ghost.
    • Level 3: Craft a grave that survivors can use as a revival item. Similar to the Meat Effigy but uses Mourning Glory as the key.
• Walter
  • Slingshot base attack speed increased.
  • Slingshot grip changes:
    • Grip Tape & Void Wrap: Adds a ramping attack speed boost during repeated shots, which resets when interrupted.  Charged shots will instantly bring you up to the max speed.
    • Sticky Grip & Jelly Grip: Adds a fixed attack speed boost as well as preventing the Slingshot from slipping when wet.
    • Slingshot using Void Wrap will gain set bonus from Void Cowl, which affects shadow planar ammo.  More details below.  (Note that the ramping attack bonus from Void Cowl does not apply to ranged weapons.)
  • Ammo changes:
    • Icky Rounds: Reduced duration of effect.
    • Dreadstone Rounds: Chance to not break on impact.  Void set bonus grants a damage buff.
    • Pure Horror Rounds: DoT has increased duration, shorter delay between ticks, and increased max stacks up to 4 times.  Void set bonus grants a damage buff to initial hit, as well as adding two extra ticks to the DoT.
  • Aimed shots and area damage ammos won’t hit walls anymore.
  • Updated stunlock handling for certain large creatures (Frostjaw, Spider Queen, Koalefant, and Nightmare & Scrappy Werepig.
  • Slingshot Field Kit can now be used while mounted.
  • Woby badge changes:
    • Added badge description panel to the Woby Training Station UI.
    • Fetching badge: Woby will now attempt to pick up any nearby item, as long as she holds at least one of that item in her bag. Since this is more effective, the cooldown has been slightly increased, also reducing the action distance.
    • Digging badge: Increased minimum success rate. Decreased overall cooldown.
    • Support badge: Added sanity regeneration when riding Woby. It scales with the badge progress as well. Attacking now also increases its progress by a flat amount. Now levels up faster.
    • Bravery badge: Attacking also increases its progress by a flat amount. Now levels up faster.
    • Speed badge: now levels up faster.
  • We plan to continue working on Woby and expanding the skilltree, but these changes may not make sense to release one bit at a time, so they will likely come in a larger patch later, possibly after our Christmas break.
