Outriders Worldslayer has been updated!

Patch Notes

The complete Patch Notes spans two Announcements, as they are too long to be contained in a single one.

This announcement covers General Changes and Bug Fixes.
You can find all changes regarding the game balance in this announcement.

QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES

• Implemented Item Locking Functionality.
• Improved the Quick Mark Functionality to now also include Legendary, Apocalypse Epic and Apocalypse Legendary rarities.
• Changed the behaviour of the camera when sprinting to make the sprint behaviour between "Toggle" and "Hold to Sprint" consistent. The camera will no longer turn when players are sprinting.

ENDGAME CHANGES

• Apocalypse Tier Leveling
  • Starting from Apocalypse Tier 20, the requirement to level up each Apocalypse Tier has been reduced by 10%.
  

• Resources & Anomaly Extract
  • The amount of Anomaly Extract gained has generally been improved and the amount of Anomaly Extract gained in Tarya Gratar's Troves has been increased by 500%.
  • A full run-through of Tarya Gratar (including Troves) should now net out at around double the amount of Anomaly Extract earned per run when compared to before this patch.
  • Boss-rushing the final Arbiter will net slightly more Anomaly Extract than before, but this will not be the most efficient route for Anomaly Extract farming.

• Crafting and Upgrading
  • Starting at Item Level 50, the Anomaly Extract costs required to upgrade gear has been reduced by 5%.
  • Between the two above changes (Increased Gains and reduced Costs), players should be able to support upgrading two full sets of gear per Apocalypse Tier level. This should enable a greater amount of experimentations and limit the need to hoard resources in order to be able to upgrade the currently equipped set.

• Apocalypse Gear Drop Rates
  • Starting at Apocalypse Tier 11, the "Increased chance for Apocalypse variant gear" has been increased for each Apocalypse Tier.
  

• Expeditions
  • Expedition Rewards have been increased in order to make Expeditions feel more viable alongside Tarya Gratar. The "Loot Gained per X Time Investment" should now feel quite similar between Expeditions and Tarya Gratar.
  • Players should now receive a greater amount of Epic and Legendary Items and comparatively fewer Rare items in Expeditions.
  • Anomaly Extract farming should now also feel much more viable to do in Expeditions.

BUG FIXES

• Fixed a bug that could prevent co-op players from leveling up even if they had acquired all required experience but the party had been wiped out during combat.
• Fixed a bug that cause player's health to be improperly calculated if they levelled up immediately after dying. The correct value would be display if they died again.

BUG FIXES SKILLS AND NODES
