tl;dr; A bunch of changes based on player feedback Hi All, The preview build for the 0.10.4 patch is now available on the beta branch. This patch is almost 100% changes based on your feedback! You can message me with ideas or bugs on the Official Discord or via the Steam discussion boards and I will likely implement your idea! I truly love working on it and it's such a blast seeing you find Chess Survivors and enjoy it's unique take on the genre. Cheers, Aarimous

0.10.4 Beta Patch Notes #1

• Players can now move onto tiles occupied by minions
• Player can now consume chests if a minion spawns onto a tile already occupies by a chest
• Added melee damage increase to core level up loot pool. Amount will scale each so Act 1 is +2, Act 2 is +4, and Act 3 is +6
• Added ability damage increase to core level up loot pool. Amount will scale each act so Act 1 is +1, Act 2 is +2, and Act 3 is +3.
• Adjusted the level up loot that increases player health to scale with each act so Act 1 is +5, Act 2 is +10, and Act 3 is +15. This will keep it in line with the new melee and ability damage increases.
• Enemy health bars will now show when the enemy is at full health
• Fire Wall map hazards:
  • Will now only rotate during the players movement phase. The goal here is to make the fire walls feel avoidable.
  • Now rotate faster, this is to make up for the pause and to push the player towards more action since the walls might hit the player
  • Now last 12 turns, previous they were time based but this now doesnt make a lot of sense since there is a pause in the rotation
  • Added back in some variations in length and number of arms for more interesting fire walls
• Relic changes:
  • Just a Sword: melee damage increased from 1 to 2
  • Gloves of punching: melee damage increased from 2 to 3
  • Steadfast protector: damage reduction increased from 1 to 3
  • Knights Bane: knight health -2 to -3
  • Gift to the Plebs: Pawn health reduced from 4 to 2
  • Gift to the Plebs: Knight damage reduced from 2 to 1
  • Reckless Axe: Enemy damage scale reduced from +100% to +50%
  • Empty Heart: On low health, player Ability Damage increased from 3 to 4
  • Empty Heart: On low health, added Player damage reduction of 5
  • Old Smelly Cheese: Player max health scale reduced from 100% to 50%
  • Lost Diadem Queen: Ability damage per pierce increased from 1 to 2
  • Ancient Hwacha Rocket: Ability damage per range increased from 1 to 2
  • Ace Spades: added property +1 amount of loot on level up
  • Five Head Stoned Ring: ability bonus damage to elite increased from 5 to 8
