- Version 1.2.0 Patch Notes - 18 June 2019
Time for a simple, but very important patch! I took the new movement system I've been working on and put it into Voidspire Tactics! Now your movement outside of combat is not restricted to the grid, and feels much more fluid. There are also a number of balance changes, including improvements to some less used passives. 1.2.0 Greatly improved player movement system so that it is no longer locked to the grid. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F10690925%2F1a4501a6494a220819022ba8e1aea2148e1d7ff7.gif Fixed some secondary effects of certain statuses (such as Itchy) not being applied correctly. Javelins and Throwing Axes now have infinite uses, but 1 less attack power. This also solves various bugs caused by using them with abilities such as Multishot or Piercing Shot. Javelins and Throwing Axes can now be used with weapon-based abilities such as Fire Imbue. Fixe…
- Version 1.1.0 Patch Notes - 4 February 2019
It's been a while. I'm still working on a third new Tactics project, but while that's in progress, here are a few important bugfixes and some balance changes. 1.1.0 Fixed various minor tooltip typos and errors. Fixed Rasmen flanking evasion bonus not working. Fixed Humans not receiving an XP bonus after combat. Fixed being able to teleport bookshelves with Gate: Item. Fixed bug where re-entering the boat at certain times in the first zone would prevent progression. Blade's 'Flash Cut' damage increased from 60% -> 75% Increased Breaker's 'Break Armor' accuracy by 10%. Reduced Spell Archon's 'Lightning Imbue' rank up duration bonus from 10 -> 6. Increased Scholar's 'Prayer' base MP recovery, but reduced the Skill & Magic Attack scaling. Reduced Sorcerer's 'Freeze' rank up duration bonus from 10 -> 5.
- Version 1.0.9.1 Patch Notes - 22 June 2018
A small patch that fixes a few very rare edge cases, as well as cleaning up some Sharpshooter abilities. The main change is that Headshot is now less potent but more reliable when used as a combat opener. No longer do you need to savescum to get the perfect snipe. 1.0.9.1 Sharpshooter's Headshot now only deals 150% damage when used outside of combat, but can't miss. Sharpshooter's Charge Shot tooltip now correctly updates to show increased damage when you rank it up. Void Veil visuals no longer disappear when you are in critical condition Added extra checks to Spiretop to ensure your actions are remembered correctly
- Version 1.0.9 Patch Notes - 30 August 2017
Small bugfix patch today, as well as a minor balance change to Bonemeld. 1.0.9 Fixed bug where Bone Crossbows turned into Iron Crossbows when fired. Fixed inaccurate text in Fareem journal entry. Fixed minor typos in journal entries. Greatly reduced effectiveness of Bonemeld vs. Undead (now only x3 damage, not x5 damage). Slightly weakened red undead. Made broken lever more visible. Fixed 'Continue' option not appearing in main menu if you get a Game Over on your first play session. 1.0.9a Fixed crash for cards that do not support Shader Model 3.0.

- Version 1.0.8 Patch Notes - 8 February 2017
Another patch, this time fixing a long-standing save bug that affected players using drives other than C!

- Version 1.0.4 Patch Notes - 6 November 2015
Hotfix time! There was a bug that prevented installing Aerstone being counted correctly, so I had to fix that ASAP. Old saves affected by this bug should work just fine, though some of Liss' dialog may trigger slightly earlier than makes sense in certain circumstances. 1.0.4 fixed a bug with Aerstone installation not being accounted for. fixed bug where global 'jurrinAerstone' would not be set if you visited the Battery first. 1.0.4a fixed a bug with the bugfix
