So, coincidentally, the game had a large update today. Among the most important changes, are an entirely new class: The Antiquarian. This class is predominantly going to be someone that helps us get richer in dungeons. But in order to access this new content, I'm having to opt into a "Beta" on steam, to give early feedback of new content before it hits live, so I've done that.
There may be nonsense that happens that could potentially wipe our progress, but I sincerely doubt anything of significant importance will happen on that front.
So, right now I'm recording the next episode ON this new beta branch, and will be experiencing some of the new content. Some of the new stuff includes:
The new class: The Antiquarian.
Arbalests and Highwaymen have received significant buffs.
The stagecoach can be upgraded to have a chance of giving higher level characters.
Basically, a lot of the late game grind has been diminished.
Roster base size / upgrade size increased: We can now hold more heroes at once.
Heirlooms: (Stuff to upgrade our town) Is not limited to certain regions: Meaning you'll randomly get heirlooms based on mission, instead of having to exclusively visit certain areas for certain heirlooms. Long story short, this should help us upgrade stuff more easily, even if we stick to ruins and weald right now.
Heirloom exchange: We can exchange certain heirlooms for other heirlooms, resulting in a net loss, but allowing us to fast-track ourselves to a specific heirloom for a specific upgrade.
So, as of this moment, I'm recording the next episode. There'll be a lot of interesting changes to cope with, but let me know (fairly quickly) if anyone wants to sign up to be an Antiquarian.
