То, чего мы ждали в марте, уже здесь: обновление B24 Grim Dawn добавило в игру вторую главу 3 Акта!

Усадьба (Homestead) открыла свои двери, добавилось несколько новых заданий и локаций, максимальный уровень остался прежним — 40. Система фракций получила отдельное окно, полное перерождение система фракций получит в обновлении B25, где-то в конце апреля. Третья глава 3 Акта выйдет примерно в конце мая — начале июня. Отдельно стоит отметить работу над оптимизацией игры. Полный список изменений ниже.

v0.3.3.1 (b24)

[Основные нововведения]

  • The second chapter of Act 3 is now available! You can now enter Homestead and engage with its denizens, venturing forth into the lands west of the settlement.
  • The first stage of the Faction overhaul has been implemented. You can now access the Faction Window for information on the factions you’ve encountered. The Faction system will be fully fleshed out in Build 25.
    With this update to Factions, vendors now offer discounts based on your Faction status.
  • The main screen has been updated with a character list for improved character selection.


[Арт]

  • Updated Wood bridge texture

[Анимация]

  • Skeleton meshes no longer stretch upon ragdolling.

[Технологии]

  • Character sheet DPS formula has been updated to better reflect the number of attacks performed per second. This has no impact on actual damage output.
  • Resistances on Character Sheet are now appropriately reduced when hit by a Resistance Reduction type attack
  • Fixed a bug when only hovering between items would not update the DPS change calculation
  • Items which have fallen through level geometry should now be placed back on the ground after a short period
  • Added Alpha To Coverage graphics option
  • Character and Monster light rigs now affect normal and specular maps
  • Aether Ray and Conflagration are no longer blocked by friendly targets
  • Added a skill cooldown timer so you can more easily see when a skill will be available
  • Improved skill targeting for many ranged skills
  • Fixed a bug where charge skills could cause the player character to become stuck
  • Move To hotkey command will move towards an allied creature
  • Casting a skill while in the process of being trapped will no longer interrupt that skill and prevent other skills from being cast
  • Fixed odd NPC head bob when opening a dialogue conversation
  • Slightly shortened Skill Not Ready message uptime
  • Holding down a repeatable skill and moving will allow it to activate once you stop moving
  • Fixed a bug where enemies with thrown projectiles were suffering from reduced accuracy
  • Improved skill queuing system to eliminate some small but noticable delays, and some issues when switching targets quickly.
  • Adjusted resource preloading system to be less aggressive and reduce cpu usage
  • Improved performance of UI rendering by eliminating some memory thrashing scenarios

[Игра]

  • Veteran difficulty bonuses on enemies were increased.
  • Increased basic attack damage on many Hero spawns
  • Rebalancing of enemies on Normal (that will also affect Veteran). There have been both global and individual adjustments. Primarily damage, movement, OA and DA have been adjusted to make combat feel a bit more dynamic with higher hit variability.
  • Many enemies have been given a pursuit dynamic where they will run up to the player at full speed but then revert to a slower run/walk as long as they are within a certain radius of the player. If the player moves outside this radius, enemies will return to full speed. This is a modification of the previous version where enemies immediately dropped to lower speed within a radius of the player. The new version should make enemies more threatening when closing from a distance but allows for a wider slow-pursuit radius that should give melee players more room for tactical movement around enemy groups.
  • Reduced the rate at which damage drops off due to low OA relative to target — affects both players and enemies.
  • Some monster spawns tightened a bit so that, on average, you’ll tend to see some packs spawning closer together with a bit more of a gap to the next group of enemies. The number of some enemies spawns was increased slightly. In some cases the max is slightly higher, in others only the min was increased.
  • Increased character name size limit to 24 characters
  • Removed % Reflect from Thorned Horrors, pierce retaliation increased to compensate
  • Reduced frequency of stuns from Groble Stone Clan Geomancers
  • Slightly increased drop rate of Dynamite from Scrap Piles, Cronley’s Gang Arsonists and Ascended
  • Physique now confers Life Regeneration at a rate of 1 point per every 25 points of Physique, beyond the starting 50
  • Added new critical damage bonus that can appear on skills and rarely on select Epic items. The values of the default Critical Damage bonuses have been reduced to accommodate this shift.
  • Increased the PvP damage penalty to 70%, up from 50%
  • For Community Translators: updated the quest offer text in NPC_TomHart_01.cnv
  • Skills that do 100% weapon damage now say so on their tooltips (was previously hidden).

[Итемизация]

  • Craftable potions can now rarely drop from bosses and heroes
  • Found a bug where certain types of more common randomized loot objects like stumps, rock piles and such were running chance to spawn twice. Eliminated the second chance roll so that they should now spawn reliably at the set probability. In short, you should see more randomized common lootable objects.
  • Debuff effects applied via % Weapon damage (ex. % Reduce Target’s Resistances) are now capped at 100% Weapon damage. This means that skills that deal more than 100% Weapon damage will no longer amplify the strength of these effects.
  • Energy Drained has been renamed to Energy Burn to clarify that no transfer of energy occurs
  • Frizzick’s Utility Pack has been redesigned. This belt’s versatile +1 to All Skills was difficult to pass up for many builds and stifled selection in that gear slot.
  • For the same reasons as Frizzick’s Utility Pack, the stats on the Mask of Delirium have been revised
  • Updated the stats on Possessed Human Monster Infrequent (MI) items. Drop rates of rare variants slightly increased.
  • Reduced Offensive and Defensive Ability values on the prefixes «Paladin’s», «Seraphim» and «General’s»
  • Slightly reduced % Total damage values on the prefixes «Tyrant’s» and «Officer’s»
  • Replaced % Total damage on the prefix «General’s» with bonus Physique
  • Removed bonus % Offensive Ability from the prefix «Menacing»
  • Reduced Poison resist values on the prefix «Incorruptible»
  • The suffix «the Dranghoul» has been split into an Armor-only version and an Accessory-only version. This suffix ended up being slightly over budget on accessories and significantly over budget on armor, and required adjustment. The Offensive and Defensive Ability values on this suffix have been reduced. Unfortunately the split into two affixes is not retroactive, so accessories already rolled with this suffix will have lower than intended values.
  • Reduced the Offensive Ability values on the suffixes «Onslaught», «Oleron’s Wrath» and «Shadows»
  • Replaced the Cast speed on the suffix «Voracity» with Attack speed and slightly increased the values
  • Slightly reduced % Attack Speed on the suffixes «Fervor», «Ferocity», «Wildfire» and «the Defiler»
  • Slightly reduced % Cast Speed on the suffix «Torrents»
  • Slightly reduced % Total damage and % Attack Speed on the suffix «Onslaught»
  • Slightly reduced % Total damage on the suffix «the Oracle»
  • Reduced % Total damage on the suffix «Fury», but increased its Offensive Ability bonus
  • Removed % Total damage from the suffix «Bestial Rage», but the suffix now gives a larger bonus to pets and scales better on 2h weapons
  • Removed % Total damage from the suffix «the Wild, but it now also grants % Attack Speed to pets
  • Updated the Aether Cluster consumable to grant 75% damage absorption for 10 seconds, instead of 90% damage absorption for 5 seconds
  • Slightly increased % damage bonuses on items crafted from rare-quality blueprints
  • Slightly increased the drop rate of the Dread Skull component
  • The component skill Sacred Strike now converts 100% of Physical damage into Elemental damage
  • Added Critical Damage bonus to component skills Slam and Lightning Strike
  • The Severed Claw component now also gives 10% Trauma damage
  • The relic skill Conflagration now scales with Cast Speed, dealing damage more frequently with higher Cast Speed. Base damage interval has been increased from 0.25s to 0.30s. Energy cost is now calculated per damage interval instead of per second.
  • Adjusted the scaling on Salazar’s Harbinger between tiers of the Salazar MI. The Harbinger’s basic attack should now scale much better relative to the level of the weapon.
  • Adjusted the scaling on the Stalwart and Frenzied Guardians summoned by items. Their basic attacks should now scale much better relative to the item level.
  • The Revenant of Og’Napesh has received cardio lessons and now moves considerably faster
  • For Community Translators: prefix tagPrefixAO009 has been renamed to «Draining»
  • For Community Translators: suffix tagSuffixB011_Ar_A has been renamed to «of the Grove»
  • For Community Translators: tagArmorClass02 has been changed to «Armor», along with removal of the word «Light» from all tagCraftRandomARMORSLOT_Light tags

Radius was increased to 2.2 but remains relatively tight, with the idea that this skill should be oriented toward taking down tougher enemies instead of clearing fodder.
