3.29.3 Patch Notes League Improvements Added 6 new Cursed Ducats that can be socketed into the Voyage Planner to Empower Voyages and Charts: Up to 3 Cursed Ducats can be socketed into the Voyage Planner at a time. Each granting a stacking amount of Toughness, Quantity of Items dropped, and Rarity of Items Dropped to monsters your in Voyages and Charts. Each Cursed Ducat additionally has a specific difficulty modifier that affects monsters found in your Charts and Voyages. The intent here is for players to pick and choose the specific Cursed Ducats downsides that least affect their character. You get your first Cursed Ducat from defeating Velka. Players who have already defeated Velka can speak to Valerie on The Sovereign to collect their Cursed Ducat. Subsequent Cursed Ducats can be found from certain monsters and objects within Voyages or Charts while you have a socketed Cursed Ducat. Modifiers on Small Cluster Jewels that grant single attributes can now be swapped between with the Genteel’s Ducat. Added a keybind to the Voyage Planning UI to enable viewing all 12 Border Modifiers at once: Alt on keyboard, or Left Trigger on controller. General Improvements & Bug Fixes Lowered the damage on several enemy Mercenary skills: Frostbolt, Ice Nova, Ice Nova of Projection, Flameblast, Fireball, Fireball of Impact, and Rolling Magma. Monsters trapped in Essences can now be interacted with from further away to break them free. Abyssal Crystals from the Abyss Scarab of Crystals now shatter when the final Pit in the Abyss closes (this is purely a visual change). Fixed a bug where Mercenary Wither on Hit supports were only applying Withered for a frame (instead of 2 seconds). Fixed a bug where you could not hire a third Permanent Mercenary if you already had two Permanent Mercenaries as well as a Temporary Mercenary. Fixed a bug where Wild Mercenaries from the Trarthan Scarab of Infamy could drop their loot without having defeated them. Fixed the minimap icons for Heist reward chests so they’re once again always revealed. Fixed a bug introduced in 3.29 which caused level one Conflagration to deal no damage and fire many more projectiles than intended. Fixed a bug where Pact of Ghorr Skill did not empower Desecrate. Fixed a bug where the “Imprisoned Monsters in your Maps have a chance to drop an additional Rare Item with an Essence Modifier” Atlas Passive could on rare occasions drop items with modifiers from the Essence of Desolation. Fixed a bug where Unequiping Pearl of Tsoatha would sometimes despawn spectres. Fixed a bug where the “Monsters cannot steal or remove your Power, Frenzy or Endurance charges on Hit” modifier from the Zana’s Ingenuity Unique Ring did not apply to certain Eldritch Altar Modifiers. Fixed an issue where Harvest could fail to begin if the Map owner was not in the area when the Harvest was interacted with. Fixed a bug affecting some Standard players where applied Astrolabes could persist across an Atlas reset and become impossible to complete. Fixed a bug where the “Unscalable Value” on the advanced descriptions of relevant modifiers was not being displayed. Fixed the descriptions of the Intrigued Interlopers Challenge displaying the wrong conditions for the Eater of Worlds, Searing Exarch and Maven Completions. This is purely a description change. Fixed the descriptions of the Frenzy and Power Charge Bench Craft Recipe being swapped. Fixed a bug where the Undying Syndicate Merchant microtransaction would not track gold outside of your hideout. Increased the dropdown heights on the Settlers of Kalguur Farm Plot and Workers UI. Fixed the Currency Exchange Market Ratio text overlapping. Fixed the Harvest Tier icons overlapping text. Helped Tarkleigh pick his bow up off the ground. Fixed a client crash.

0.5.4f Patch Notes Fixed a bug that could cause skills to target the wrong direction if you locked onto an enemy within a very short window of starting the skill. This bug was responsible for a large number of player reports of incorrect targeting behaviour. Fixed a bug where some Boss Skills that grab you could lock you into an animation indefinitely if you were shapshifted when grabbed. Fixed an issue where you would sometimes perform another Dodge Roll when releasing the input after sprinting. Fixed a bug where shapeshifting would disable the energy waves created by Charged Staff from triggering once you swapped back to using a Quarterstaff. Fixed a bug where the Evertree Map Device microtransaction did not visually bloom correctly. Fixed an issue where the tracking display of the Fateweaver’s Map Device microtransaction could not be toggled when using a controller. Fixed an issue where the icon for desecrated currency was not visible on the Tracking Scroll of Exotic Items microtransaction. Fixed a bug where the Undying Syndicate Merchant microtransaction would not track gold outside of your hideout. Fixed a client crash that could occur on PlayStation. Fixed two instance crashes. This patch may take roughly 15 minutes to become available to download on PlayStation after it has been deployed.
