Update 1.2 — Chaos Guidance, Map Clarity & Stage 1 Balance

Hello, this is the developer of Record of Chaos - Korean Chapter.

We have improved the guidance for Chaos effects and choices, and refined the map to make locations and routes easier to distinguish.

We have also added an in-game patch notes menu and adjusted the HP and attack values of several Stage 1 monsters. Here are the details of update 1.2.

1. Improved Chaos Effect Guidance

When you enter a Chaos room, an information window explains the active effect. We fixed an issue where this explanation could be missing.

Closing the window now makes it shrink and move into the Chaos symbol on the right side of the screen. The symbol briefly highlights afterward, showing where you can check the effect again.

• Close the window with the Close button or ESC.
• Hover over the Chaos symbol on the right to review the currently active Chaos effect.

2. Clearer Chaos Costs and Risk Warnings

Treasure and Rest options that require Yeopjeon because of Chaos effects now show their costs more clearly before you choose.

• Displays the Yeopjeon cost of the choice.
• Shows your current Yeopjeon balance alongside it.
• If you do not have enough, displays how much more you need.
• Options you cannot afford are disabled.

Unavailable options and warnings now appear in red. This makes it easier to recognize why a Rest option is unavailable, when you lack Yeopjeon for a Chaos choice, and when an event presents a risk.

3. Improved Map Readability

We adjusted spacing and borders to make nearby nodes and their connecting routes easier to distinguish.

• Increased horizontal spacing between nodes by 10%.
• Slightly reduced the outer circular padding and borders of non-boss nodes.
• Refined the outer decorations of Chaos nodes to leave more space between neighboring nodes.
• Strengthened the ink outlines of node borders for clearer silhouettes.
• Fixed bright gaps between circular node borders and Chaos decorations.
• Adjusted the start and end of dotted paths to meet node boundaries, fixing paths showing through underneath icons.

The sizes of the inner icons and clickable areas remain the same, so you can select your destination as before.

4. New Patch Notes Menu

Added Patch Notes above Quit in the main menu.

You can now read update history by date without leaving the game.

• Updates are listed by date, newest first.
• Scroll through the text to read earlier updates.
• Reopening the window returns to the top, where the latest updates appear.
• Available in all eight supported languages, including Korean.

5. Stage 1 Balance Adjustments

We slightly reduced the difficulty of several Stage 1 monsters to ease the pressure of early battles. The changes are listed below.

MonsterChangesHouse DokkaebiHP 20~25 → 20~22Road DokkaebiHP 18~22 → 18~21JangseungHP 40~45 → 39~41; starting Block 7 → 5Maiden GhostHP 59~65 → 55~56EoduksiniHP 100 → 90; damage of certain attacks 11 → 9; multi-hit damage 6×2 → 5×2Lord of the MountainHP 250 → 230

Your feedback is a great help as we refine the game. We will continue improving guidance, readability, and combat balance.
