Performance Update (v.1.4.5)

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey all.
This patch is focussed on refining the performance of the game. There were many changes made behind the scenes to dramatically reduce the amount of resources the game uses. If you find anything that doesn't look quite right following this update, please don't hesitate to contact me on the discussion board or Discord.

We are close to the next content patch now, which will add:

  • More requested features.
  • More map events, inspired from community suggestions.
  • A rework of C20 and additional difficulty modifiers.


~ Dale

Patch 1.4.5


General Changes

  • CPU usage has been reduced by up to 50%.
  • Memory usage has been reduced by 35%.
  • An option has been added to reduce FPS from 60 to 30 (for very low end computers).


Item Changes

  • Vampiric Mantle's description has been updated to clarify that the 30% damage is converted to a Bleed and the rest of the damage is taken normally.


Enemy Changes

  • Garboid, Mimic Hoarder, Bristle Beast, and Master of Arms no longer Stun the target they move for 1 second (this was a hidden effect).


Bug Fixes

  • The Corrupted Oracle's active ability no longer counts heroes affected by Crown of the Banshee when dividing HP.
  • Fixed a crash when trying to add too many random heroes in the tavern with the 'R' key.
