The static Fire Altar boss seems to be using a regular mob's sprite while out of battle.

Oh, and Id like to point out that static bosses often do not move at all while not engaged in battle making it easy to back attack em'.

There is no limit to how much momentum you gain when critical hitting.

EX:
1st move:You use Sword A's normal attack, critical hit, and gain 1 Momentum.
2nd move:You use Sword A's Special Attack 1, critical hit, and gain ANOTHER one momentum.


I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but I don't think it worked this way before, did it?

I have no idea if this was patched yet or reported, or fixed but still bugged but yeah. You can spawn ontop of the door and not be able to move.

Shaitan's Black Rend is supposed to be an 'unresistable' form of damage, yet it seems that it can still be evaded as per 'spell evasion'. Given that its damage is already relatively low (to counteract it being unresistable), I think this is not intentional.

Due to some rather strange circumstances (a tree was falling on the building I live in!) we ended up skipping a week, but now we're back again. This update was still rather tedious to do, and is mostly polish, bug fixes, and QoL stuff. But some of the stuff was rather long overdue, so I think it was time well spent. I also managed to get some work done on background stuff that will be coming out in one of these updates eventually.

Absolute Pace Visuals - A technique that gets a boost from Absolute Pace now has slightly changed visuals in the form of a blueish tint and faster animation speed.
Fade-To/From-Black & Results Screen Improvements

• The fade effects are now much smoother looking.
  
• Win quote display text is now animated.

• House Editors can now rename and edit signs.
  
• House Editors can now dig holes, plant seeds, harvest crops, and place scarecrows.
  
• House Editors and Owners no longer need a key to lock/unlock house doors.

• The tutorial has been given a once-over and updated to have modern information. (It still referenced green arrows for leveling up skills, which has been a year or so outdated...)
  
• Professor Pink now talks about Recent Events.
  
• Professor Pink now includes a small summary and link to the wiki page on Keyboard Shortcuts.

• The signboard now displays the full rankings for the fishing contest instead of only the top 3.
  
• The way scores and places are stored has been rewritten to avoid odd bugs. (Some new odd bugs may have been introduced, so please report them if you find anyway.)

• Auto End Turn; On by default. When off, selecting End Turn will display a target selection, meaning you will have to press the accept key twice to end your turn. Good if you accidentally end your turn a lot.
  
• Status Expiration Warning; On by default. When on, status effects displayed below character portrait bars will slowly blink if they only have 1 round duration left.

To me, trying to obtain the Boss' Catalysts (or items found with their enchants) is simply not worth the effort.

Even though things like the Mutated Jammer Core are awesome and allow for some creative builds and I would love to test them out further but... I know the odds of me finding one are very slim and trying to actively grind for one would frustrate and bore me to tears.

And even then if I get lucky enough to find one, it being so rare and not being able to be broken down to maybe get it back means I have to be very careful about what I do with it making it less of a thing I can just experiment with. So overall, it ends up being a disappointing experience instead of a fun one for me.


So to alleviate that I think the odds of bosses dropping a random item with their special catalyst on it should be greatly increased. Even though you can't break them down, it would be neat to come across something interesting that you wouldn't make yourself but that very rarely happens at the moment.

And of course, I think the likelihood of the catalysts themselves dropping from bosses should be bumped up.

Now I don't know the numbers exactly but I've heard they have a rate identical to Black Beasts dropping their Black Books however I don't think that really works for Bosses because:

- You fight multiple Black Beasts at once. (2-3 per battle.)

- You can fight several of them fairly frequently during a Black Beast invasion.

- Bosses on the other hand, you have to clear the bottom floor before you fight them. While a higher level a boss means the more likely you'll get one, it also means the more clean up you have to do before you can face them which I feel works against that idea.

- Alternatively you can stumble across one in a static dungeon but there's still a delay to how often you can find one that way.

- Even then it's usually only the one per fight. (Gigas Rex in a Crazy being the exception.)

Using parting shot will not give you the extra low damage 1 or 2 shots from Akimbo. It only fires base rounds.

If the enemy is standing on top of a voidgate while the void assassin uses Fray on them, instead of the enemy being targeted it automatically targets the voidgate causing it to go unstable and release the four bolts which will all hit the enemy causing obscenely high amounts of damage along with the damage done by the Fray, as if they were targeted.

A quite plain note is attached to the board in Cellsvich.

Extended Grip doesn't seem to be increasing the weight on handguns.
