February 17th, 2025 Patch Notes

New art for 120 weapons and 24 armor sprites, weapon balancing, and ... a new piñata party?

Features

Added over 120 new weapon sprites!
- Every weapon in the game now has unique art. See the changes yourself in your inventory.
Added 24 new armor sprites!
- Several armor sets previously using placeholder art now have their own cool designs. Unique armor sets just got even more unique!
Balanced weapons based on feedback and game data.
- Snipers have received some rebalancing, decreasing their base crit multiplier and slightly reducing range, while increasing their base damage. This is aimed to enable snipers to maintain a high power ceiling without scaling quite as steeply off of luck.
- Minor damage buff to all Miniguns.
- Projectiles from the Fireworks skill now gain 1 pierce per upgrade level.
- Base damage increased for the following weapon skills:
  - Meteor Shower
  - Starburst
  - Acid Cannon
  - Missile Barrage
  - Nanomachines
Removed pixel compression from environment art.
- You can now experience the world of Etheria in pixel-perfect clarity!
Replaced the end of mission loot chest with a beaky bird piñata.
- Now every loot drop is a party!
Minimum player level requirements on missions have been replaced with power level requirements.
- This is to more accurately measure when a character is strong enough to have a balanced experience in a mission. This should help reduce instances of taking on missions while too underpowered to achieve a passing grade.

Improved server performance.
Fixed an issue that caused weapons and armor not to equip properly on login.
Fixed a bug that caused the indicator on some skills to point in the wrong direction.
Improved the visibility on the objective arrow.
Fixed a bug that caused the aim assist setting to reset.
Adjusted the movement joystick to always be visible.
Localized currency symbols in the in-game shop.
