Greetings Embers,

It has been a LONG time, but we had a lot of changes to make and fix this title. After a lot of back end work we are finally ready to roll out our first major update. Most changes are to the game play mechanics and battle balancing, but we have also added a lot of new content as well. The most obvious change is to the quest log and to our new, improved, and expanded over world. You will start see more regular content coming from here out. We appreciate everyone's patience, and we look forward to bringing a better gaming experience to you. Below are the changes we have made. You will most likely have to start the game over, which we have tried to avoid, but the changes have been too many for most saved games.

ITEMS

  • Health Potion(Item)
    Recovery now at 20%
    Increased drop rate in Gazerbat and Ectophage.
  • Drought of Life(Item)
    Recovery now 20% +10 HP.
  • (New Item) Bandit’s Delight
    High drop rate from bandits type enemies
    25% recovery
    10% chance to gain state dizzy
  • (New Item) Honey
    5% Hp and Mp recovery
    New Dizzy (State)

GAME MECHANIC CHANGES

  • Retreating from Battle
