Warpack 0.9.115
The Blood Seer gains +1 gold a round. HOW IT WORKS explains RISEN, caster cards say how many a blast hits, the library pane shows mana and levels. A free retire is not a run.
Balance
- The Blood Seer gains +1 gold every round. Commander cards say so.
- The Blood Chanter starts a fight with 6 mana, so its first rite comes after two swings instead of three. Later rites are unchanged.
- Blood Tithe, the Chanter's second ascension, is +4 mana per attack: every rite after the first comes a swing sooner. It was 25% opening mana and +3 per attack.
New
- A coin sits beside the gold readout above the shop.
Interface
- HOW IT WORKS opens with a middle-click on a card marked ?, on the pick screens, the boon chips and the commander's skill list. It opened on hover.
- The forge opened from a Scraps card fades through black on the way in and on the way back. It faded in over the shop, which flashed bright behind it for a moment.
- HOW IT WORKS explains RISEN: the Bone Legion's swarm trait, its units listed by name. A body raised during a fight is a summon, not a risen unit.
- A caster's card says how many enemies its blast or chain reaches. It said the kind and one number.
- The library's ascension pane says a unit's mana, its spell in the card's own words and its HP and damage at every level. It said the spell's name and one number.
- The fifth-item warning says the unit's bag combos still pay; only item synergies stop. HOW TO PLAY says the same.
- Rites of the Risen reads "Each body a unit of yours RAISES adds +1 XP to that unit". Conscription says "raised skeletons" instead of "the risen".
Fixed
- Split arrows, pierced arrows, echo bolts and spread spells skip a flanker for its unseen second. The split arrow hit it.
- Retiring before the first fight is no longer a run: not a loss, no win streak broken, no placement run used. It counted as a played run. A retire after a reroll or a shop upgrade still costs one lost fight's rating in ranked.
- Retiring with the opponent on the VS screen counts that fight as lost and, in ranked, costs one lost fight's rating. It was free.
- A shop slot rolled by building the Market or the Armory before the first fight counts like a reroll for the retire price.
- The unit card says a caster's opening mana when it differs from what the bar refills to after a cast.
- Rites of the Risen credits the unit whose kill raised the body. A body raised by Conscription or Void Sovereign credited the corpse.
