[h1]Spell Changes[/h1]
[list]
[*][b]NEW SPELL: Hydra Blast [/b][AREA Spell]
Conjure the head of an arcane hydra flying forward and after a player selected distance explode and launch several smaller projectiles that deals damage and knockbacks.
Gains stronger at rank 2 and 3 by increasing the number of projectiles spawned.
[*][b]NEW SPELL: Orb Of Travel [/b][TRAVEL Spell]
The caster transforms into a metal ball gaining immunity and a movement speed boost flying through the battlefield for a short duration.
[*][b]Energy Shield[/b]
[list]
[*]Now shrinks over its duration.
[*]Now gains duration for each reflected spell at rank 2 and 3.
[*]Is no longer attached to the player at rank 2 and 3.
[*]Is no longer rotated towards the cursor at rank 3.
[/list]
[i]Developer Note: We were not happy with the current state of Energy Shield as it went away from its core mechanic of placing down a wall at rank 2 and 3. So we decided to redesign the level 2 and 3 bonuses to directly buff the wall aspect of the spell.[/i]
[*][b]Chain Hook[/b]
[list]
[*]Rank 3 Chain Hook is no longer attached to the ground on retrigger.
[*]At rank 3 you can now retrigger the Chain Hook to throw away the end that is currently connected to the caster. If this end hits anything both sides will be pulled towards each other.
[*]Tweaked the Chain Hook to make it easier to sidestep and throw hooked players past you.
[/list]
[i]Developer Note: Rank 3 Chain Hook was not really that fun to use so we decided to look for a setup that was easier and more interesting of comboing with.[/i]
[*][b]Consuming Void[/b]
Is now aimed towards the cursor at all ranks
[i]Developer Note: Consuming Void was not on par with the other defensive spells so we decided to add this aiming mechanic to make it possible to consume spells from all angles if you are quick enough.[/i]
[*][b]Acid Pool[/b]
[list]
[*]Now has the same slightly smaller starting size on all ranks.
[*]Now grows to a larger size on all ranks.
[*]Rank 2 and 3 grows significantly larger than before.
[/list]
[i]Developer Note: We wanted to make acid pools main focus as an area control spell by increasing the final size of the spell while making it harder to just throw it directly underneath someone to deal instant damage.[/i]
[*][b]Proximity Mines[/b]
[list]
[*]Now falls down 25% quicker
[*]Now activates 25% quicker
[/list]
[*][b]Frostbolt[/b]
Rank 3 frostbolt now has a short delay before spawning in its ice trail preventing the caster from being instantly slowed by his own spell.
[*][b]Lockdown[/b]
Increased the damage reduction on all ranks by flat 20% making it easier to soak in a barrage of projectiles if needed.
[/list]
[h1]UI Fixes[/h1]
[list]
[*][b]Transmute Panel[/b]
[list]
[*]Fixed issue causing gaps in the Customization Menu where transmuted items still tried to fill out some spots.
[*]Unequips items that are no longer owned by the player after transmutation.
[*]You can now only transmute items from the cosmetic lootchest you can only get from playing.
[/list]
[*][b]Inventory[/b]
[list]
[*]Added a preview button for the Cosmetic Lootchest you sometimes get after playing a game. In this menu you can check out some information about each item and also see how they look equipped.
[*]Fixed bug causing the inventory to sometimes not load.
[/list]
[*][b]Sounds[/b]
[list]
[*]Updated several UI sounds in the lobby scene.
[*]Fixed a few sounds that was not hooked up to the sound sliders.
[/list][/list]

[h1]Cosmetic Shop[/h1]
We have added in the Cosmetic Shop. We currently have 5 packs of goodies here themed the two opposing factions in the game.
[list]
[*]The Order - Gatekeeper
[*]The Order - Seeker
[*]Coven - Rebirth
[*]Coven - Divided
[*]Mega Pack (All Other Packs Combined + bonus staff
[/list]
[i]Developer Note: We decided to go with cosmetic packs as our monetization model because we felt that removing the random-factor from the money was the best path to take[/i]
[h1]Game DLC[/h1]
We added a Collectors Edition to the steam page
All players that bought the game during [b]Early Access will automatically get this pack.[/b]
It contains 2 brand new skins and staffs only available through this DLC as well as the SOUNDTRACK composed by the very talented Maciek Dobrowolski.
