Brimir Update (v1283)
Everything that piled up since the last announcement, in one go. The headline is a
complete overhaul of the rune icons, plus a pass over bugs that had been nagging for a while.
🎨 Over 500 rune icons, redrawn
- Every rune active icon has been replaced with new artwork. They move from flat pictograms to a hand-painted look.
- The hero's own rune icons were redrawn in the same tone.
- Skills that had been running on placeholder art now have dedicated icons
- The leftover frame borders on Numeros icons are gone, and the guild rank banners were redrawn.
- Icons with messy backgrounds or too little contrast to read were picked out and redone.
🆕 Added
- Grade 3 rune delivery contracts are now available at the Rune Archive. A long-haul goal aimed at the very top of the rune ladder.
- Fenri's idle stance was redrawn, so it now flows into his attack instead of cutting to it.
⚖️ Balance
- Eternal Dragon — In its final phase it would loop area attacks with no opening to answer. Its gap-closer can now be parried.
- Wraith Colossus — Spectral Shell — Reworked into a defensive rune that reduces magic damage taken at all times.
🔧 Bug Fixes
- Purchased Reflux Stones no longer disappear. They now stay with you until you actually spend one.
- Return Stones and Reflux Stones no longer weigh anything. Simply carrying them was eating into your pack.
- Incarnation Stones had split into two separate kinds — they are now unified, applied retroactively to kills you already have.
- Silence now lands on bosses as intended.
- Damage over time was not filling gauges that charge from damage taken. The runes that rely on it now work as designed.
💡 Quality of Life
- On-screen hints now show what Shift and Tab do.
The pilgrimage to the Heart continues.
