Dear Aspirants!
With this third preview on the Champion's Journey Update, we want to highlight the all-new Calendar, different Item Modifications and reveal a bunch of patron and career management traits!
Timeline
We've added a Calendar to the game: it shows you a timeline for upcoming events.
This directly links to The Spectacles Update which introduced rare fights at certain weeks. With the Calendar, you can better organize your career strategy and make informed decisions that will have a positive impact on your journey.
Item Traits
We’ve introduced various new item traits to the game. Many are stat buffs or debuffs, with each one affecting a new bonus stat (more on that later) for a specific skill.
Another example is Throwing Weapon and Projectile (experimental). In this line we've also added a new item: Throwing Axe.
A related small QoL feature with the Pilli is now it still acts as a 1H spear even when you don't have a shield, so you can still easily throw it.
Unique Items
A small but flavorful change: the items unique to Elites introduced in The Spectacles Update are now marked a new tier: Unique!
Preview #3 Trait Reveals!
We're thrilled to introduce a bunch more traits! This time will focus on minor positive traits!
Patron Traits
There are 4 Patron Traits (so far) and they have effects that scale by your positive Favor with that specific Patron. Each of these effects scale up to you having 100 Favor:- Alluora's Boy: Reduced Favor decay (up to +3%) after battle with all other Patrons. You gain Favor with all other Patrons (up to 25%).
- Joridus Apprentice: All your Weapon Skills increase, up to +35.
- Valerius Coupons: Up to +25% Shop Discount
- Mazza's Star: Up to +50% Fundraises rate of conversion.
Career Management Traits
The following traits primarily focus on the career management aspects of the game. They can affect your character's skills, influence battle traits, adjust shop prices, and more. These are some examples of Minor Traits, which means they can also be gained during your run as rewards.- Blacksmith's Friend: Significantly more fights have the Battle Trait "Insurance".
- 1H Weapon Expert: Influences your 1H weapon skills. +5 Base Damage if Weapon Skill above 50. +10 Base Damage if Weapon Skill above 100
- 2H Weapon Expert: Influences your 2H weapon skills. +5 Base Damage if Weapon Skill above 50. +10 Base Damage if Weapon Skill above 100
- Dodgy: +30 Bonus Dashing Skill.
