Update July 29, 2026

New

  • New miniature and unique items added as rare rewards to Underworld and Fissure of Woe end chests.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that kept ghostly flatbows from dropping from the Tunnels of the Forsaken chest.
  • Fixed the icon for Miniature Ghost of Althea.

Skill AI Adjustments

  • Splinter Weapon: Should only cast on party members.
  • Finale of Restoration: Now only casts out of combat while the caster is above 80% energy.
  • "They're on Fire!": Now only casts when the party is fully cleared of the buff. Additional priority if the party has echoes to support.
  • Anthem of Weariness: Now only casts when the party is fully cleared of the buff. Additional priority if the party has echoes to support.
  • Energizing Finale: Caster prioritizes self if energy is below 80% and they don't have the buff.
  • Strength of Honor: Caster maintains this enchantment out of combat as long as they have 1 or more pips of energy regeneration. Should only cast on melee-wielding party members.
  • Aggressive Refrain: Reduced casting energy requirement threshold from 90% to 80%.
  • Ballad of Restoration: Removed the health threshold requirement to cast in combat. Casting priority increases as more party members benefit.
  • Wells: Heroes hold off on casting wells unless there are targets or allies within the affected range of a corpse or themselves (if casting without a corpse).

Known issues
