Battle Log

  • Spell costs have been halved, rounded up. I.e. spells with 1 slot cost 1 despair, spells with 5 slots cost 3 despair

  • Lacrima that are activated by chance show their value now when hovering over them in satchels (i.e. Capture 10% shows value of 5)
  • Broken spells no longer show a sell price in shop (thanks Auri)
  • Hovering over a map fragment when choosing between two fragments now shows icon infos (thanks kabukistar)
