v1.0.3 · 2026-09-10
Cheaper rerolls and unit upgrades, Deployment Ritual, Chinese translations, and sacrifice fixes.
Historical patch; later changes may supersede these values
Fixes
- Sacrificed Chieftains no longer return after loading. Chieftain rerolls offer the correct card type; sacrifice reward minimum rarity includes Totems and respects the lowest sacrificed rarity.
- Sacrifice rerolls no longer raise the next draw price. Reloading a draw no longer charges twice. Cards can have the intended maximum of three enchantments.
- Clockwork Tree and Twilight Tree work again. A graphics-card startup error and zero-damage critical hits on units with upgrade-granted critical chance are fixed. The notes also acknowledge an earlier Demon defeat/victory fix.
Gameplay
- Rerolls cost 25% of a normal draw instead of 50%; Wayback Elixir reduces this to 10%.
- Wayback Elixir and Deployment Ritual join the Blight Tree. Deployment Ritual sends newly trained units and Totems to the Portal Plateau, joining the warband when capacity permits.
Balance
- Fully upgraded Concentrated Essence plus Frigid Core provides 8 seconds of slow flask duration, previously 3.36. Frigid Core total duration bonuses are 50%, 100%, 150%, previously 1%, 3%, 5%.
Prices
- Frigid Core ranks cost 20,000 / 80,000 / 240,000 gold; Frostspire Extract costs 40,000 / 180,000.
- First Blood and Collateral first ranks cost 12,000 gold; Maligned Mantle costs 20,000. Later ranks cost two-thirds less, but absolute later prices are not published here.
- First ranks: Wyvernscale Saddles 20,000; Metallurgical Research 15,000; Longshot 12,000 gold. Advanced Hooking costs 50,000. Later ranks of the three ranked upgrades cost two-thirds less.
Localization
- Missing Simplified and Traditional Chinese translations are restored.
