• Patch 1.2.7 - 8 October 2026

  Recent player feedback has been suggesting a wide gap between the first zone bosses and Horizon at zone 4, even after his previous nerf in the endless update. So I decided to do a new audit of all zone bosses to try and smooth their difficulty curve a bit more across all 4 zones.The changes are mostly intended to nerf Horizon to bring him down while retaining his encounter identity, and then buff the previous zone bosses a bit, especially to help their identities come out before they die.Since endless runs are clearly where the hardest content in the game lives, you can still face harder versions of everyone there.Zone Boss ChangesEdict phase 2 now summons his clone at 3 seconds (from 5), but his first skill of the comat is still random between this and his heal.The summon of Edict phase 2 now uses his AoE Taunt at 3 seconds (from 7). This means the earliest Taunt from this summon can o…

• Patch 1.2.6 - 3 October 2026

  Endless ChangesThe progression in endless runs was compressed to now being able to fight Terminus at map 13 (from 16), and the difficulty cap now being at map 25 (from 32). The entire difficulty curve was compressed to meet this new progression.The way this works is that now there is only 2 maps between zone bosses after the first one, meaning that you fight the first zone boss at map 4 as always, but then the next ones are at maps 7, 10, 13 and so on.Previously a lot of players reached the point of having a very strong team much faster than the enemies were becoming more difficult, so you often reached the min maxing stage much earlier than intended.Now difficulty rises a bit faster and you get to fight Terminus a bit earlier, improving the experience of building your teams to remain engaging for longer in an endless run.

• Patch 1.2.5 - 26 August 2026

  Endless ChangesThe Zone Level Multiplier in endless runs now starts scaling much faster after zone 4, but it still has the same cap at map 32. This is intended to have a more distinct separation between the early, mid and late parts of the progression curve in an endless run:Zones 1-4 serve as the early part of the run where you should have plenty of time to build a starting team.Zones 5-16 serve as the middle part of the run where the difficulty starts ramping much faster and your team really starts to get tested. Notably, you now reach zone 16 with a 400% multiplier (from 270%), and this is still the earliest zone where you can fight the unique endless boss.Zones 17-32 serve as the late part of the run where min-maxing your team becomes the focus if you want to keep climbing and reach the difficulty cap at zone 32 with the 1000% multiplier.Mastery ChangesReserved Mind now requires 2 M…

• Patch 1.2.4 - 18 August 2026

  Endless Runs ChangesWe want to have a difficulty cap in endless runs to serve as a benchmark for your teams and a good stopping point if you only care about beating the content. The thing is that some players want to keep going after that to min max their teams, but we felt the difficulty cap didn't provide enough increase in difficulty for those players.Nerfing player power across the board in order to make the difficulty cap harder would make things too hard for new players, but we also didn't want to just make the difficulty cap harder without giving enough time for players to prepare their teams for the added difficulty, so we knew we had to extend the journey to reach the difficulty cap as well.Endless runs still progress in difficulty the same way until map 16, where they reach a Zone Level Multiplier of 270%, but now that multiplier continues to increase up to map 32, reaching a…

• Patch 1.2.3 - 13 August 2026

  ChangesItems and spells in the collection now show their quality upgrades.All maps now have 1 less normal combat and 1 more superior combat. Besides the additional difficulty, this also gives the first map more interesting navigation decisions and buffs how many consumables from superior combats you can get per map.The mastery trait Mind now grants 30% Skill Resistance on its first bonus (from 20%). This means that the first bonus of Mind is no longer a downgrade when compared to Preparation, which is the base trait Mind replaces with its mastery.The quality upgrades for the Power Conduit spell now grant a base Inspiration amount of 1 / 2 / 3 (from 1 / 1 / 2), but now grant additional Inspiration equal to 3% of Available Mana at all qualities (from 3% / 6% / 10%),The Moon spell now grants its "+5% Maximum Mana per combat completed while undefeated" as an additional amount of flat Maximu…

• Patch 1.2.2 - 12 August 2026

  ChangesThe Bonfire Navigation mastery now requires getting a team of 7 characters instead of 9. This allows to unlock the mastery before endless runs again.The Zone Boss in the Horizon Paths was still blocking many players from unlocking endless runs. Now the phase 2 of the boss has about -10% Maximum Health, -20% Total Resistances, -20% Attack Damage and -15% Skill Damage, but their Convergence trigger skill now grants 40% Maximum Health and Heal to allies on death instead of 30%. This should allow more players to win the fight directly, but it also makes it easier to kill at least one enemy in that phase to start gaining progress through the Ghost system across multiple rounds.The mastery trait Slice was trivializing the new boss in endless runs due to his high Maximum Health, so it no longer grants "+3% Target Health dealt as Piercing Damage on Critical Attack", it now grants "+30% P…

• Patch 1.2.1 - 8 August 2026

  This patch mainly touches on the balance of endless runs, since it seems we missed the mark on that and they were much easier than intended, especially the final boss. Since the intention is that these are the hardest content in the game, we want to provide a tough challenge that requires very good teams to beat.ChangesThe new Zone Boss in endless runs was completely rebalanced to be a lot more challenging, with a focus on increasing his defences by a lot and reducing his energy costs a bit. The intention is to allow the boss to last for longer and use more skills to actually challenge your teams.The Zone Level Multiplier now scales higher from Zone Levels 5 and above, with the highest multiplier at Zone Level 16+ being almost double from what it was before.Zone modifiers in endless runs now have 2 tiers. The first one is similar to the previous set of modifiers and will appear from Zon…

• Underboard: The Endless is Out Now! - 6 August 2026

  This major update introduces passive skills for player characters, an item and spell quality system, new masteries earned from zone bosses, a whole new roster of enemies for the Horizon Paths, and Endless Runs as the game's toughest challenge yet, featuring a brand-new final boss.Character Passive SkillsAll characters in bonfires now appear with a random passive skill based on their attributes, these are meant to be somewhat close in power to ancient items, so they provide a decent amount of power by themselves, but to truly shine you'll have to build synergies around them.Some superior combats now also reward a new consumable to reroll a character's passive skill in case you want to look for a better one on a particular character.Item and Spell Quality SystemAll items and spells can now have increased quality, which makes them more powerful, and some even gain new effects. To add quali…

• Patch 1.1.8 - 17 April 2026

  Zone 4 Boss ChangesWe've been getting more player feedback about the last boss of the game being too difficult still, even after the previous nerfs in balance patches before the 1.1 update. As this is currently the last boss of the game, we do want for it to be challenging, but we've identified a specific improvement for this fight thanks to recent feedback, which is how hard it is to gain progress between lost combat rounds.To improve the balance of the boss we've done the following changes:Phase 2 enemies now have 30% less Maximum Health.Phase 2 enemies have a new "Convergence" skill, which triggers when they die to grant 30% of their Maximum Health as Maximum Health to all allies, with a Heal of equal value to fill that gained Maximum Health over 5 seconds.Phase 3 enemies now have 10% less Maximum Health.This makes phase 2 enemies significantly easier to kill at the start of the comb…
