Dark and Darker Hotfix #9

- An option has been added to automatically equip utility items in the inventory when pressing the utility hotkey.
- The character’s base mesh has been changed for better compatibility with more clothing.
- Added a new loading image.
- Ironshield’s logic has been updated.
- The attribute bonus ratio for The Wizard’s Ignite and Magic Missile spells has been adjusted to 50%.
- For the time being, All Attribute options on all items will only go up to +1. *applies only to new item drops.
- High roller ante is adjusted to 50 gold.
Developer Comments:
We are continuing to monitor the ways in which + all attributes are indicative of gameplay choices made by the player and the way it impacts certain classes. As such, we’ve decided to limit + all attributes to +1 for the time being and will continue to keep an eye on it.
Wizard’s Ignite and Magic Missile attribute bonus ratio we’re previously intended to remain at 50%, however we had to make the adjustment this patch instead. Our intended goal is to continue to fine tune spells until we feel the classes are performing well at various gear levels. Thanks for playing!
