10/16/2024 9.5.6 Hidden Struggle New Features: Expanded Hidden Hall. Created 1 new dungeon. (is sealed off when Alex and Amelia join the team) Balancing: Increased Quarter Life, Third Life, and Half Life from 2 turns to 3 turns. (short durations can cause an exploit with these skills, but it's an interesting exploit, so the increase will only be from 2 to 3) Enemy resources are now 20% harder to reduce. Enemy forces gain 4-5% more resources each time they level up in tech. Enemy forces gain (15 + 2%) tech rate instead of (12 + 2%) each time they level up in tech. Reduced banking's interest rate by 80%. Misc: Fixed Golem Hand encounters from being activated outside of reach. Fixed Reaper Cleave from activating twice. Improved some early game dialog. Slightly improved some skill descriptions. Fixed an Island of Sand hunting contract. Silence now affects silicon, acid, arcane, and entropy spells. Fixed Cosmic Color from drastically increasing tech level. (old saves with extreme tech level are now set to 100 tech level)
