Patch Notes for 19/12/23
Wartales v1.0.31873
Pirates of Belerion
Fixes
We have corrected many of the issues related to the boat's boarding (no interaction with boat after a reload, can’t board from a beach…). We also added a rowboat on a beach to facilitate interactions with the boat.
We've added a mark in the menu indicating that you have activated the DLC.
Upon launching a game after buying the DLC, you immediately receive a notification indicating the region’s direction.
Eokeld no longer stops playing after a landing.
The skills “Trample” and “Raise” can now be used without a weapon.
Fixed an interaction with the skills “Barrage” and “Landing” where Barrage would be triggered while the unit was hanging.
Fixed an issue with areas triggered by the pushback of the skill “Squall”.
You can now loot grapnels on pirates and Belerian guards.
You can now find a new recipe in the ghost ship’s locked chest.
You can now find a new recipe in Per Bast’s tavern.
The rocks in Belerion’s ocean now remain visible even if “World Details” are toggled off in graphics options.
Mystery path bonus now scales with the new sepulchre.
Fixed an issue which allowed to build a trade route between Tiltren and Belerion (the routes you already built have been refunded).
Fixed an issue which caused the same group of rats to attack you twice on Ioc’h island.
The position of Kjerti now appears on the map when it becomes possible to confront him.
Fixed a few translation errors.
Fixed a few wrong icons.
“Gotta Catch ‘Em All” can now be unlocked and fish caught in shoals are now taken into account.
“Hopping mad”, “Explorers of the seven seas” and “The Miraculous Catch of Fish” can now be unlocked (backward compatibility applies)
Balancing
Reputation gains were significantly reduced to prevent Lords of the Seas’ aggressions from happening too frequently.
The reputation gain boost given by Akhedian steel figureheads was reduced. On the other hand, they now apply the same damage protection as the Akehdian steel ram.
Duels
Tutorials have been changed to be clearer on how the duel plays.
The first Sea lord encountered displays his actions to demonstrate that the captain’s words are linked to his actions.
The duel’s interface has also been modified to make the different actions’ effects clearer.
The player now has 1 more hit point.
The Sea lords now have 1 less hit point.
Being defeated in a duel no longer results in a “Dying” status. The defeated unit only takes a few damages before being pushed back and disengaged.
Where it applies, the time limit was significantly expanded.
After losing a duel, the Sea lord’s hit points are not restored.
Triggering a duel against a disarmed unit no longer causes crashes.
It is now possible to trigger a duel by attacking a captain with Stubbornness even though they are already engaged in combat.
Fixed an issue in which completing a duel in co-op mode would cause a crash.
Base Game
Fixes
Fixed an issue with the use of the skill “Barrage” in Forsaken Villages.
Title from Arena of Legends is now unlocked when all fights are done in hard mode instead of only 1.
Objectives in the Arena of Legends no longer fail when enemies are healed and the round changes.
In the Arena of Legends, Hiltrerd is still considered a champion after her recovery.
Fixed an issue in which Arena objectives could only fail at the end of the round.
Fixed an issue with the item “Salt Scoop”.
Fixed a crash happening when a camp tool had to produce a resource with no assigned companion.
In battle, it is no longer possible to inspect environmental elements such as rocks or lightning.
The skill “Arterial Precision” no longer applies its effects more than once per use.
Militia will no longer chase you while you’re inside a town.
The skill “Animal Cooperation” no longer triggers an opportunity attack from the unit the first time it’s used in battle.
Recipes that could previously only be bought from Ludern’s Large Tracker Camp can now be found in other places too, so that they don’t become unavailable when the trackers leave.
Fixed an issue that made old saves impossible to load.
Fixed an issue where The Alazarian Ambassador wouldn’t act during his turn.
Balancing
The zone in which the skill “Ovation” applies has been expanded from 8 to 12 meters.
