Backpack Battles Patch 0.6.2

Backpack Battles

A PvP inventory management auto battler! Buy and craft powerful items, then carefully arrange them in your backpack.

[h3]Hey everyone,[/h3] We continue with the big changes! In this patch, our primary goal is to streamline [b]Spikes-related items[/b]. We simplified the effects of Thorn Whip, Spiked Shield and Bow and Arrow. We have made no direct adjustments to the Lightsaber yet, but quite a few indirect ones. If this isn't enough we will be quick with the adjustments. We also add two new Ranger-specific recipes this week - [b]Tusk Piercer[/b] and [b]Fortuna's Grace[/b]. These crafts will give Rangers more tools to shape their build in the mid-game. Last week’s experiments went well, thanks a ton to everyone who gave their feedback in a respectful way! Every change was controversial, but we aligned with the majority of players on how to move forward: Keep the scaling rerolls cost and spacious start inventories while moving the subclasses back to round 8. This patch brings a much-requested quality-of-life feature: [b]reconfigurable controls[/b]! You can define to 2 keys for many features such as rotating items and shifting your inventory in the Options. You can now also add hotkeys for rerolling, starting battle and pushing all items to storage. There are many more changes, check them out below! [h3]Joining the community[/h3] Found a bug?
