Neutral Item Pool Adjustments

The neutral items that every ship has access to have fallen behind the class-specific items. These changes aim to clean up undesirable items, either by removing them or buffing them. The removed items may make a return, but only if they can find a good niche to stand out in.

  • Magnifier changed: The item on the opposite side of this gains +32% Range and Damage.

  • Cannon (NEW): Long range with slow bullets. Add your Health and Turn Rate bonuses to this gun's fire rate.

  • Mine Launcher now has an additional effect: Add your Shield and Speed bonuses to this gun's fire rate.

  • Adaptive Coating (NEW): Health +24% (Shields +24% instead when Switched)

  • Laser Beam and Anti-Missile have been combined. Now, Laser Beam can also target and destroy missiles.

  • Laser Hangar rarity increased Common -> Rare

  • Anti-Missile removed from the neutral item pool.

  • Zapper removed from the neutral item pool.

  • Missile Launcher removed from the neutral item pool.

Balance Changes

  • Weapons that apply Overheat have been removed from enemy ships and replaced with other equipment.

  • The spider faction has been demoted to Blazing Striker.

  • The multi-colored explosive faction has been promoted to Radiant Striker.

  • Titan's Cannons removed

  • Enemy fleet sizes reduced by 15%

  • Rooster Friend now also has Lifeline(10) for each item it equips.

Bugfixes

  • If your health exceeds a certain threshold, the healthbar no longer shows segments and instead fills up as one solid color.

  • Fixed a desync caused by multi-segment enemies.

  • Mirror's Edge's cooldown now correctly shows in the weapon bar.

  • When a gun targeting an enemy fires missiles, the missiles will now lock on to whatever the gun is targeting first.

  • Fixed an infinite loop caused by a reflected Flak Cannon bullet with Havoc Superfocus and Fortifications.

  • Fixed a bug where Melee weapon recoil persisted between rounds.

  • Optimized textures for GPU rendering
