Update 0.28 (14 November 2020) NEW MAIN QUEST - The Corrupted Coven

Some Mourians are trying to channel the power of the corruption. Nazhedja asks the party to join her in some of the deepest areas of the Underworld, looking for traces of her sisters.

This quest includes some branching situations. You can skip some fights (even a boss!), and solve some conflicts using dialogues instead of weapons.

The Corrupted Coven is the longest mission so far, and the last quest of Act 1. Anyway, you can keep playing The Waylanders even when you finish this quest!

Quest requirements: The Corrupted Coven requires completing both Corruped Circle and Blood in the Woods.
NEW SIDE QUEST - The Agate Eye

Nazhedja also wants to recover a lost artifact, the Agate Eye, while you’re exploring the underworld caves looking for the coven during the main quest. In wrong hands, it could cause a lot of damage.

Quest requirements: This quest will trigger during The Corrupted Coven.
COMBAT TUTORIAL ADDED

Learn the ropes of the combat system in our new interactive tutorial! Attacking, abilities, formations, equipment... Nytia will tech you the basics. Oh, and the tutorial also has been adapted to controllers!

How to activate the tutorial: Find Nitya, the mourian trainer, in the deck of the Arbitor, during “Journey to Inisfail”.
OTHER CHANGES AND CLARIFICATIONS

Tutorial: we've added the combat tutorial in the first quest of the game. But this won't be the only one in the game! We'll include additional tutorials in the future

Map menu: we've updated all the locations-related images in the menu and in loading screens

Codex: we've added 'Eye of Agate' entry in the Codex

Known bug: some quests overlays the HUD. This will be fixed solved during the next week via hotfix
Update 0.27 (26 October 2020) NEW LOYALTY QUEST - AMERGIN

Amergin asks you for help adventuring a sacred cave in this new loyalty quest: The Cave of Eternity. Amergin counts on you and your party's help to face some challenges and recover his title as High Druid... and face his most deep fears.

Your choices and actions will have consequences: although we don't want to make any spoiler, depending on your success during the challenges, the final encounter on this loyalty quest will be different.

Quest requirements: finish Corrupted Circle quest and talk with Amergin in the Vengeance.
NEW SECONDARY QUEST

The name says it all: Wake the Ancient Dragon. This quest can be unlocked after completing The Cave of Eternity. You must complete a simple-but-epic task: slay a giant ancient dragon!
OTHER CHANGES

Minor redesigns in texts and icons in context menus

New Codex category: Quest Items

Known bug: there is an issue which causes the game doesn't properly shows the Wake the Ancient Dragon quest information. Anyway, this side quest is fully playable and we'll fix this in the next update.
Update 0.26 (9 October 2020) Khaldhun's loyalty quest is now available! In Rite of First Refusal you’ll know more about her master in necromancy arts, and a powerful artifact.

You can start it getting a letter from Scota in the crow spar, after finishing Corrupted Circle quest.
NOTE: the quest is narrative-focused to give the player a legendary, powerful item, but we didn’t implement that system yet. We’ll offer you a stat-boosted weapon instead for the moment! NEW NOTIFICATION SYSTEM

We've added a friendly notification system to keep track of everything you unlock, loot and find in a new, easy way! You'll find notification icons on the right side of the screen, as you can see in the image below.
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS

We've added new friendly shortcuts for several menu tabs:

KNOWN BUGS

Gold material reflections and the blood river in the underworld may create weird visual glitches.

Sometimes the player character can dissapear in Back to Life

Some combinations of helmets and hairs cause an overlay issue when you open the menu. Unequip and equip again solves the problem, but it will happen again if you open the menu.

In Khaldun's loyalty quest, if you go to the exit in Chamber of Revelation cave before you complete the quest, the game becomes unstable and crashes.

Although these issues are not currently fixed, we are working on that. Thanks for your feedback and reports!
Update 0.23 (14 August 2020)

In this major update, we wanted to do something special. So, we added a significant amount of content: the longest quest up to this moment, a secondary quest and 3 new Celtic companions!
NEW MAIN QUEST - Corrupted Circle

This is the longest quest so far! This means, Corrupted Circle adds more time of gameplay, featuring 3 new maps in Dumbriga. Some parts of that place could be explored in Xerion’s Corruption Quest, but now we’re opening the whole location for the first time.
Fuamnach's Tears

This is a map inspired in a real-life place from our land Galicia: Ezaro's waterfall. You'll love it.
The Druidic College

Corrupted Circle is a selectable quest in the crow post, at the end of Back to Life, after the first time you visit The Vengeance. This quest is focused in Lugaid's story arc.

Don't miss it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRNNNK0Rc-I
UI CHANGELOG

We've improved several user interface features and designs, listed below.
Characters

'Change party' and 'stats' actions are better integrated in the UI, with better positions for their buttons.

Background-related abilities, like racial resistances to elemental damage, are shown as part of the character tooltip, instead being in the abilities screen

Now you can rotate your character in the menu

Minor design changes, like font size and text alignment
Equipment

Equipment includes a text in the tooltip, showing the quality of the item

Equipment only displays available gem slots. This should fix some confusion around what things you can improve via crafting

Map

Minor changes in design: icon & text sizes adapted to future map improvements

You’ll fight powerful bosses there! Currently, there is one boss available. We want to reveal it, but we guarantee you’ll be surprised by this epic, massive foe. Just go to Shaded Cascades and find out by yourself!
Will you add more boss challenges in the future?

We want to expand Shaded Cascades with more bosses in the future, so we would like to read your opinion in the discussion forum.

Some improvements

Major bug fixed

Sometimes, a bug happened during Fateful Encounters: players teleported to an infinite void when they continued after a game over on a Fateful Encounter. It’s fixed.
No update next week

8 updates in 8 weeks. 2 months since the Early Access release. This requires a lot of energy (and some magic). There won’t be update next week. Our team is working hard, and they need a vacation. Sometimes, even the bravest Celtic humans need to rest.
But don't worry. We'll add amazing content during the following weeks! We have plans for new quests, more game improvements, some surprises and even new companions! Khaldun, Mal and Rea are eager for new adventures. Update 0.21 (7 August 2020) 0.21 update features a new Fateful Encounter called There’s a surge in the flow of corruption...

This is a challenge combat map focused in narrow paths, roadblocks and ranged enemies, with a miniboss battle. Follow a full-of-obstacles valley with corrupted enemies and get some new loot!

You'll be able to play this Fateful Encounter after finishing Xerion’s Corruption Quest.

Formations progression improved
Formation talent tree has been improved: level up gives you formation points. You can use them to choose talents that improves your formation abilities. For each ability, you can choose between two different variants.

Your characters will gain formation points on each level, except for level 1, 3 and 9.
For some time during Early Access, we'll unlock both formations for each character at level 3. So, you can try and enjoy them since the very beginning of the game. Formations are funny, and you can even combine the two formations of one specific character to create combos. Just experiment with formations! Nettle Cavern is a good place to do that.

Having two formations at level 3 won't be a permanent feature. In the future, you must reach a higher level to unlock formations.

Also, we've fixed some bugs related to this, so the formation system is now properly working.

More voicelines added

Added some new voicelines during Back to Life (during the combat segment)
Major bug fixed

-Fixed a bug that caused some problems and reset all attribute point assignation each time the player opened the menu.
