General
-NEW BOSS: The ☠️ GIGA BEAMER ☠️
This boss can be encountered in the second bossfight after defeating wave 10, and should be quite the formidable foe!
-The new boss introduces a new debuff: 🐌 Sticky 🐌
This will slow your movement speed and cripple the recharge rate of your combat roll. When afflicted with this debuff, you have to time your combat roll perfectly, use it too early and you're toast!
-Ammo UI has been reworked for greater back-end flexibility, this should fix issues related to the ammo bar getting messy at high ammo counts
-New Visuals for Rusty Magnet, Mineral Scanner, Unstable Isotope, Whispering Lantern, and Burning Enemies
-Added special art for stunned detonator enemies
-Shortened "Elder Plasma Spitter" to simply "Elder Spitter"
-The game no longer exits you from a store when you Alt+Tab or Shift+Tab
-Integrated steam rich presence! Now you can see which mercenary your friends are playing as and where they are in their runs!
-📡 New Setting: Controller Cursor Distance
This setting allows you to customize how close or far your cursor is to your weapon when using a controller
-📡 New Setting: Show Mini Cooldown Indicators
This setting toggles on two small indicators by your character that show you the cooldown status of your combat roll and your ability
Minigunner
-Powershot
Added new ability visuals!
Rotated burst projectile orientation by 180 degrees
Now you won't get that pesky projectile that's sent straight back towards you
Engineer
-Shotgun
Tightened projectile spread by +27%
This should make it significantly easier to do higher damage without needing to be in point blank ranges to enemies
-Custom Minisentry
Increased projectile speed by +75%
This allows the minisentry to hit moving targets easier, which helps it deal damage better damage when it's alone
-Scrap Efficiency (Passive)
Scrap back from armor purchases in shop increased +25% -> +50%
Small buff to make this aspect of his passive a bit more impactful
Drillminer
-Drillmine Launcher
Reduced base firerate by -6%
Increased drillmine explosion radius by +15%
Small Stat tweak to lean the drillminer into his strengths as an AoE damage dealer
Items
-Mineral Scanner 💻
OLD:
9 second scan (+9 seconds per stack)
12 deposits that yield medium scrap
NEW:
12 second scan (+12 seconds per stack)
8 deposits that yield small scrap
4 rich deposits that yield golden small scrap
rich deposits can be scanned 2-5 times each
every deposit has a +18% chance per additional threat level to yield triple scrap values!
New Mineral Scanner Visuals!
-Royal Jelly 🐝
Bee targeting range reduced by 25% (New range: 5)
Bee damage reduced 30 -> 20
Bee recharge time reduced 2 seconds -> 1.25 seconds
NEW: Bee recharge time now reduced by an additional 0.15 seconds per stack
-Tasty Honeycomb 🍯
Bee targeting range reduced by 25% (New range: 6.5)
Bee damage reduced 30 -> 20
Bee recharge time increased 1.25 seconds -> 1.5 seconds
NEW: Bee recharge time now reduced by an additional 0.35 seconds per stack
Previously the Tasty Honeycomb was essentially a direct upgrade to the Royal Jelly, it had a higher bps (bees per second) and could fire bees onto enemies from nearly double the range of the Jelly. It also didn't help that stacking them was neat but not that interesting.
Now, the Royal Jelly will have superior bps in the early game, with the condition that you need to remain closer to enemies to fire out the bees, when compared to the Tasty Honeycomb. But, if you gain multiple stacks, the Honeycomb will surpass the Jelly in sheer damage. Both of these items will also benefit from scaling considerably better with additional stacks now that the bee recharge rate is improved by them.
The range adjustments also make the Jelly more useful in prolonged close quarters combat, whereas the Honeycomb will be more suited to longer range playstyles.
