Developer Comment: This update continues our quest to reduce the time commitment and grind required for players to feel as if they can compete and enjoy the game. This update brings the first step in a paradigm shift in the way we design our items. The primary attributes for almost all weapons and equipment have been flattened. The core difference between most item grades is simply the number of random modifiers. Poor items will always roll the lowest primary roll to slightly differentiate them from common items. We have also normalized most of the additional primary stats you receive from items to the epic quality items. We believe this level of item attributes grants players a wide range of diversity in building their characters and offers a satisfying combat feel. This change will also assist us with character balancing in the future as we now have a much more predictable standard for item power. We thank you for your patience as we continue our quest to bring forth a better dungeon experience. As always, see you in the dungeons!

Hotfix 68

Developer Comments: This update brings a large update to the item drop rates as we prepare for the upcoming item paradigm shift in the coming weeks. We have significantly revamped the drop rate of items to give more incentives for players to go down to the lower dungeon levels and to enter the High Roller dungeons to match the high time and risk investment. Monster and chest drop rates have also been improved across the board to give more incentive to fight and explore. High Roller bosses and special rooms now have a separate drop rate for artifacts to make it easier to target those items.

This update also includes QoL improvements with the Expressman and the release of the final batch of quests for this season. We hope you enjoy this update and see you in the dungeons!

A followup note: There are currently some bugs with the drop rates of some unique items, which will be fixed in the next hotfix.

Developer Comments: This update brings changes to the Adventure Points (AP) system to make progress a bit easier. We have heard your feedback and have re-added the ability to gain AP by interacting with lower-value monsters and chests. We have also increased the amount of AP earned for retrieving loot including treasure items. Please note that all AP earned for retrieving loot, including treasure, is displayed in the ‘Item Achieve’ score.

We have made a change to our policy regarding teaming to improve our anti-cheat/exploit process. ALL teaming, including organic teaming, is now prohibited in the High-Roller dungeons and is now a bannable offence. The High-Roller dungeons are meant to be a dangerous environment and too many unscrupulous players would hide behind the ambiguity of the previous policy to the detriment of the overall experience, thus the change in policy. We will continue to crack down on players who exploit the systems to ensure a clean experience.

Developer Comments: We are proud to introduce several key features for Early Access Season #4!

This update introduces the Religion system. Adventurers can pledge their allegiance to one of several demigods and receive their special blessings.

The update also gives players a sneak peek into the highly anticipated ‘Arena’ system. Please note that this first implementation of the Arena is an experimental version and meant only as a taste of what is to come. Many upcoming features, including an MMR system, an Arena Season, and an Arena Leaderboard will be released later this season. Currently we will be utilizing gear score to matchmake the Arenas. Please also note that the Arena will only be open during limited periods and access is limited to Legendary status accounts. During this experimental preview period, the settings and structure for the Arena may change drastically.

The original platform link feature was removed due to complications and loopholes with the various storefront policies. We are currently working on an updated platform-link feature to allow the migration of legacy Blacksmith accounts to a mainstream platform of their choice. This feature will be a one-way platform link allowing specific Blacksmith accounts (created on Blacksmith before June 6, 2024) to migrate to either a Steam or Epic Games Store account. We ask for your patience as we roll out this feature in the very near future.

Finally, we are proud to announce our first Twitch Drops campaign! The campaign starts on September 13th at 12:00 am PST and runs until September 20th at 11:30 pm PST. Please be sure to link your Twitch account through the Options Menu and hang out with Dark and Darker streamers to earn some cool new rewards. As always, thank you for playing - we'll see you in the dungeons!
