• 👥We’ve made it so your mouse cursor will be locked to the Swarm screen while playing in full screen. No more accidental cursor escapades!
• We’ve added a warning when you’re about to go over the recommended Skill Tree level for this stage of development.
  • What initially was a 40k Pansuns cap on Skill Trees has now been reconverted to a pop-up warning. The cap was removed altogether.
  • We still want players to know when they’re exceeding the intended progression level that would guarantee a fun challenge at this stage of development. The choice is entirely yours!

• 👥We’ve added little “Coming soon!” banners to Skill Tree nodes that are currently not unlockable, the same way Kudos have these banners. This should help clarify what can be achieved now and what cannot.
• We’ve changed the damage dealt by status conditions from a fixed amount, to a variable amount that scales up with Temtem damage.
  • The more attack your Temtem has, the more the damage inflicted by status conditions will increase.
  • This change also applies to enemies, so likewise: the more damage the Swarm Temtem has, the more damage they’ll inflict on your player Temtem by status condition damage.
• 👥We’ve made it so event spots won’t repeat their location during a run after completing them. If you’ve gotten an event in zone x, you won’t get another event in that zone.

After having the chance to watch everyone play the EA version for a few days, we’ve noticed the curve of progression wasn’t completely balanced. We’ve noticed Deniz was underpowered, while Arbury was too much of a wall for progressing players.

The idea behind these changes is to make Deniz a bit more challenging, and to tone down the challenge on Arbury and Tucma so we can get a smoother progression curve.

As for Tems, no playable Temtem was balanced on this patch because there seem to be diverse opinions on all of them, which means they’re in a good spot right now and there’s no glaring issues to address right now. We’ll still be monitoring them, and your feedback, to identify and fix possible issues.
