Season 5 will be releasing on the 13th of December 2024 at 14PM GMT+2!

Greetings noble heroes! Our development kitchen has been full of steam from all the cooking we have been doing during the 5 month long development cycle! It has been a roller coaster of emotions from depression and despair to hype and excitement with a hint of burnout. We managed to pull off something we can be really proud of! We can finally take a small break before putting our hands to our next colossal barrel of ideas!

So what exactly was cooked? Lets get right to it!

Sub Skills

Each non-buff/passive skill now has 14 sub skill nodes. 10 small nodes to boost its attributes/add an effect and 4 big nodes to completely change how that skill works. 2800 nodes in total! The sub skills provide a wide variety possibilities and play styles for every class in the game. This also caused the meta to shift which should give players more to find out and explore!

Amun-Ra

A new uber boss version of Anubis with its own unique drop pool of new items!

Star Levels

You can now upgrade items by using dust obtained from unstable rifts or prospecting items increasing its stats!

Codex of Eternity

Craft or farm these codexes with randomly rolled zone, duration and sockets to force a custom satanic zone! Socket orbs into the codex to gain the buffs you want or you can even turn the codex into a runeword for a really insane buff on the zone for its duration!

Local Co-Op

New an improved local co-op is re-introduced to hero siege! We are releasing the game on PlayStation 5 very soon, so we had to overhaul everything regarding gamepads and local co-op!

Items

Many uniques have been balanced based on player feedback. We will put more focus on items in future seasons as the workload for this one was insane. We have also added some new items with the time we had left!

Season Supporter Packs

We are removing the old season packs from sale for the foreseeable future, so this is the last chance to buy them. Just a heads up! - PAS

Greetings! We have once again been working really hard to bring you new amazing content, qol and all that! I am highlighting some of the coolest new features that you will see in Season 4 so lets jump straight into it!

Loot Highlighting

So we scratched our heads trying to figure out how to make the loot filter better and ended up with this very creative way of doing it. You can now choose highlighted affixes on items per item slot which are shown in a different color on the ground!

Overflowing Mining Nodes

You can now find rare Overflowing nodes that give you a huge amount of ore and potentially up to 3 of the rarest materials from those ores! You can also find Rich nodes which also give more ore than normal nodes.

New Affixes and Affix ranges

We re-worked the whole common/mythic item system and added a ton of new affixes! You can now find insane items which gives you the power spikes you need! Some mythics can be even better than heroics!

Inspect loot without picking it up

You can now inspect loot without picking it up!

Dedicated Charm slots

We moved Charm slots next to the other slots so you dont need to share them with your inventory, you can also remove 2 of the blocked slots from the incarnation tree!

Skill Loadouts

You can now access up to 4 skill loadout slots which hold both skills and attribute points!

Dungeon Reworks

A huge amount of the dungeons have been extended and made into 1 big floor!

New Zones

We have added some new zones into the game in between certain zones! These new zones have big enemies that can drop amazing loot!
There is an insane amount of stuff which would render this post way too long if I was to write about every change in detail, so you can go read all of them here: Season 4 Patch Notes Also check this video of Anubis, one of the new re-worked act bosses!

A decade ago Jussi and I got the opportunity of releasing Hero Siege on Steam and starting our company Panic Art Studios. Reflecting on the journey, it's almost surreal how our passion project transformed into a thriving reality. Back in the days of our studies at TAMK University of Applied Science we dabbled in game development during our free hours, but it was a spontaneous decision to do a 48-hour game jam that set the wheels in motion. Pooling in votes for Style & Genre from our audience, the winning combination turned out to be "Arena/Hack n slash" + "Medieval/Fantasy". What started as a game jam project after the event evolved into Hero Siege. The journey from then till now has been an insane commitment, with nonstop efforts to bring the game to its current state. We stand here today proud of what we've built, and equally grateful for the passionate individuals who now form our team. Hero Siege is not just a game it's a manifestation of our passion and dedication, a project for creative minds to thrive and a source of excitement for our players. To everyone who has played, supported our journey, and provided invaluable feedback - Thank you! Your passion has fueled our drive to continuously improve and innovate. As we celebrate this milestone, we still have so much work to do and ideas to release thus this is only the beginning! Here's to another decade of Hero Siege and beyond! - Love, PAS Team Here is the game in its first stages and now :)

Greetings! After intensive experimentation and player feedback we decided to make some changes that most players can perhaps appreciate! I also want to personally apologize my childish behavior during the beta period, It was not the right way to respond no matter how infuriating the argument was. I should've listened and taken more time to process the feedback that was given. I feel like the 100 hour work weeks and immense stress clouded my judgement completely. For all of this I apologize and try my best to do better. Now lets continue to the sweet stuff!

Stop Casting Partially Removed

We decided that removing stop cast from the majority of damaging ranged attack skills as well as spell casts is the way to go. Here is a short video of how it plays in game: [previewyoutube=jdCkOHBDn_8;leftthumb][/previewyoutube]

Socketable items Stacking

Also due to a lot of player demand as well as market functionality we decided to let Runes/Gems/Jewels, all "Socketable" items stack so players can free more inventory and stash space for other items and sell stacks of these in the market.

Satanic Zone Buff

We have been thinking about the Satanic Zone system and what to add in order to make them valuable and give something that a player would leave what they are currently doing to hop in. So Satanic Zones now give 3 random buffs to the player as well as 2 random debuffs. Example of Buffs: - Loot amount increased by 600% - Angelic drop chance increased by 50% - Heroic drop chance increased by 50% - Skill Damage increased by 40% - Cast Rate increased by 50% - Attack Speed increased by 50% - Movement Speed increased by 50% - Lots more.... Example of Debuffs: - Decreased Light Radius - Darkness, pitch black enjoyment - Reduced All Resistances - Reduced Life - Reduced Mana - Increased Damage Taken - Lots more... Satanic Zones are now also shown in the map:

Nightmare and Hell quest lines

In order to make leveling much more enjoyable we decided to add some bigger quests in Nightmare and Hell difficulties which reward the player with valuable stuff such as Satanic items and Mid tier runes, and even a few high runes for the Hell Quests. This should give the player more to do while going through the acts and help with gearing up as well as leveling up faster.

rre quest line and Soulforged Ring is back!

The grind fest quest line from rre is now back and completely re-worked. It consists of a bunch of daily quests and grinding. Look for the Mysterious key when killing bosses in hell ;)
This is all for now, we will continue working on the game to make it better and better as time goes on! Please feel free to join our Discord if you wish to give feedback or discuss or ask questions. We developers are there for you! :) Hero Siege Discord - Love, PAS stickmansteve

Greetings Heroes! We have been working hard on the Season 2 patch for the past month in order to make the game more engaging, fun and rewarding! After going over community suggestions and having tons of good discussions with our active players as well as playing the game a lot our selves we have a pretty good understanding what the problems are and what should be improved!

Lets start from Quality of Life improvements

We are bringing improvements to movement and combat mechanics to be more accurate, easier to use and less clunky. Player base movement speed is increased for a better early game experience! You can now jump towards objects with full speed instead of being slowed down when jumping a short distance. We also fixed the maps that have water and chasms on the map border which can now be jumped through to reach the other side. Teleport/Blink skills now also have better collision checking which makes it much smoother to teleport around. We improved projectile hit checking so that when shooting through corners the projectiles wont destroy into them any more. Base cast rate on all skills has been increased by 25% in order to make early game more enjoyable. Exploration was a big frustration for the players so we decided to add a system that reveals zone exits, dungeon entrances and way point on the map when you are roughly 2 screens away from them. This improvement made game play feel much better! Looting Quest items now vacuums all nearby quest items so you dont need to constantly click to pick them all up! Loot and Market filters will be improved for better filtering.

Lets go into the content!

The Chaos Tower will be making a comeback in Season 2. Chaos Tower will work like it worked before, but all the floors are random generated!
Satanic Potions: the potions from HS1 are making a comeback in Season 2 and since we now have the potion belt, you will be able to use 4 satanic potions instead of only 1. These potions work just like before, giving buffs and having a cooldown. We did increase the effect duration on all of them and made sure that the potions are fun and powerful! New Items: We are adding a bunch of new Satanic, Heroic and Angelic items as well as new runewords which have new gimmicks! Due to player demand we re-introduced the Satanic dice which can be used to re-roll any items stats with the chance to brick the item. Temple Trapdoor dungeon added back into the game.

Balance

We revisited all set items and tweaked the stats to make the individual items more powerful and useful. Especially the Set Weapons now have damage that is in par with end game items. Many satanics, heroics and angelics have also gotten some buffs in order to make them useful. More satanics can now also roll sockets into them. Gem drop rates as well as the Stats the gems give have been buffed, Gems now also give additive spell damage which is a new stat we are introducing and can be found in common caster weapons. Common Item affixes now roll more reasonable stats and spell weapons can now only roll stats that are beneficial for casters and vice versa. We tweaked extra gold and magic find stats in order to fight gold inflation and mf stacking builds being superior to non mf builds. Wormholes will be scaling harder so the climb wouldnt be a tedious chore. Sub Difficulties now also increase drop chances from Bosses. Attack Damage % stat is now calculated after all the other modifiers thus its a lot more powerful now. We will be working on class balance with the help of community suggestions and excess testing and data gathered during the first season. Our aim is to make every class be viable, engaging and fun to play!

Season 2 is scheduled to come out on the 12th of January 2024

The information in this post is what we have done so far, there is a lot more to come! Thank you for reading! - with love, Panic Art Studios

We're excited to announce that Hero Siege "2.0" is arriving today on October 2nd, 2023!

As some of you may know, we've been hard at work on a major game overhaul since Q4 2022, and we've named the project "Hero Siege 2.0" or just "HS2.0." Please note that the game's actual name remains the same; "2.0" is just a project name to distinguish it from the previous version. It's been nearly a year of dedicated effort to improve the game. In this post, we'll highlight the most important changes to the game. You'll find a link to our Devlog at the bottom for more detailed information about these changes. First and foremost, Hero Siege 2.0 is a free update that will replace everything currently in the game. This means all your previous local and online game saves will be wiped clean. This is necessary due to significant changes in the game's data structure that would cause conflicts with existing saves. To ensure a smooth experience, we're starting fresh! The seasonal counter will also reset, beginning with Season 1 again. Previous seasons will be referred to as "Legacy Season N" in the Season Rewards section. It's important to note that all your rewards from previous seasons, as well as any DLC or Tokens you have, will remain unaffected in your account.

Art & Zones

We have recreated nearly all of the art in the game from overworld zones to dungeons, enemies and bosses. With this new update, we get a more streamline art style for the whole game that feels natural to the theme of the game. HS2.0 will see much more dark and ominous visuals than before, creating the perfect atmosphere to battle hordes of various creatures the players may encounter in their journey. Map generation has been reworked from scratch for better and smarter generation eliminating possible errors, along with the hand crafted dungeon layouts and visuals. Have fun exploring all the eye candy out there! Beginning with 2.0, Hero Siege now utilizes a 720p resolution. This enhancement provides players with the ability to see a bit further, resulting in sprites, UI elements, and the overall game appearance looking significantly crisper and more appealing.

Inventory & Stash

Large changes were made to the inventory, it will now be visibly more pleasing to look at and you will be able to see all your gathered loot at once as well as use the new charms system. Instead of being able to equip one charm, you can now place them into the golden slots on the right side of the first page of your inventory to equip up to 20 charms at once depending on their size. With the addition of a large rework to how the inventory system works in Hero Siege, items now take up a certain amount of inventory slots, reflecting the size of the item while it is in the player's inventory. We also made these sizes smaller than other ARPG games usually do to make more available space for collecting loot. The four empty slots under the belt & rings is the new place youll be able to store your Relics that you find on your journey to protect Tarethiel against evil. Up to five relics can be equipped at once and they can grant the player Stats, Passives and Active skills but have now been reworked to be more unique and powerful than before. Relics can also be upgraded by picking up the same relics again up to a maximum level of four, increasing their effects with each upgrade. Just like the Inventory, the Stash has also been updated to work the same way. Now you can view all the items in your stash with ease. The stash is divided into personal and shared tabs. Personal stash tabs are bound to a specific character, and their contents can only be viewed and accessed by the character currently in use. Shared tabs, on the other hand, contain items accessible to all of your characters. Previously, during a season change, stashes were wiped clean. However, personal tabs now retain their items and transfer them to the next season. It's important to clarify that Seasonal characters still become off-season on season change, so you cannot retain items between seasons. Shared tabs are still cleared during a season change.

Servers

Previously, we have had most of the multiplayer functionality spread out all over the world. But when it came down to saving your online data or logging in, all that traffic happened via our main server, here at the PAS office located in Finland. This has caused issues for a couple reasons: Scalability and latency. Due to our optimization, security and validity of the online communications, the game often needs to wait for a valid response before continuing. That added up with the latency or poor connection, equals problems. To battle this issue, we are introducing account regions with HS2. The default login region to start with is EUROPE. After the initial login, existing accounts get to use one (1) free migration to whatever region they wish and new accounts have to choose one before creation. We highly recommend that you pick the region that is as close to you as possible! The regions are: Europe (PAS Office Server) Americas (Cloud) Asia (Cloud) Its important to mention that no matter what region your account is, you can still play together with anyone else. These regions also do not have their own Market economy, but rather the Marketplace will be global. Along with the region changes, account ID will change a bit to comply with that. You can see your account ID with your username in chat messages, or at the top left in character selection. Guilds and Mailing are also cross regional, and mailing now uses Account ID!

Guilds

The guild has had the same system for quite some time, so we decided to give the much needed love to this feature! Guilds will no longer be hero bound and the new guilds will now be Account bound instead, and can contain a total of 32 players! Players can create a new guild in the Town of Danethorpe from Guild Master Kranosh! Guilds will now have levels. Guild experience can be acquired by simply playing the game while belonging in the guild! Guild has 3 permission layers, starting from the Owner, to Officers and Members. The names for these ranks, along with guild colors and logos are customizable! Guild levels give Guild Perks! Every 10 levels will give a new perk to everyone in the guild, motivating even more to level up your guild! Guilds also now will finally have a shared stash as a unlockable perk at level 20, so everyone can easily contribute and directly help your fellow guild members! Stash access permissions can also be managed by the Owner easily from the Guild UI, opening by default keybind of B!

Classes

We have completely overhauled and rebuilt each of the 19 classes in the game from the ground up. Every class now boasts enhanced and innovative unique talents that seamlessly align with the new direction of HS 2.0. These talents have been meticulously designed to synergize with one another, reshaping the overall gameplay experience. We're moving away from relying on chance-based passive abilities, DOT (Damage Over Time) builds, and high attack rates. Instead, we're placing a spotlight on a refined skill system in which active talents take center stage, complemented by meticulously crafted passive abilities.
With the launch of 2.0, we're also introducing the winner of The Community Design Challenge: EXO! EXO will become the 20th Hero to join the roster as DLC! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2556720/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/2596130/

Combat & Stats

We are seeing a shift towards a more traditional ARPG combat system with active talents being the main focus and passive abilities to support them. Players have the option to bind up to 6 different skills to binds of their choosing, and 2 more to the mouse buttons! To bind skills, players can click either left or right slot on their HUD to reveal all the available talents, and then simply hover over a talent they want to bind, and just press the assigned button. Button assignments can be changed from the Settings, and are Q,W,E,A,S and D as default. Stats in general has gone under a complete rework. Most notably, you now have 4 attribute points per level in addition to talent points to spend! Damage types have also gone under major changes, but to keep this post short and smooth, those who are interested can read more in depth from our [devlog]

Items & Crafting

Items have all been completely revamped from scratch. While some satanic+ items have retained their unique thematic elements, many have undergone significant changes to align with class and stat reworks, as well as the introduction of new systems. One of our primary goals when designing these new items was to make them more unique, enhancing the excitement of finding the perfect one for your character. Item roll ranges are now unique per roll, meaning that once you've acquired an item, its stats are fixed; there's no option to reroll an item's stats until you achieve perfection. An important point to note is that items no longer have levels or quality ratings to worry about. Instead, all items are categorized into tiers: D, C, B, A, S, and SS. Satanic+ items have a fixed tier, while common to mythic items have a random tier based on difficulty. This tier will determine the potential stats and their maximum values. The drop system for different tiers has also been completely overhauled, accompanied by a newly designed loot filter that enables you to select which rarities and tiers of items you want to see. Satanic+ items can now be destroyed into dust, which can be used for crafting items of the same tier. Dropped satanic+ items are now unidentified, concealing their stats. You can identify them by right-clicking the item. Unidentified items cannot be equipped but can be traded. Common to mythic items have been improved, to the extent that a mythic item with a good roll might be more valuable to you than some satanic+ items. Legendary items have been removed, leaving commons, superior, rares, and mythics. Rarity no longer reflects the power of the item but rather the potential for stats they can possess. Many items in the heroic tier have been shifted down to the satanic tier, and the remaining heroic items can now drop anywhere in Tarethiel, with an increased chance in specific zones. Runewords have also undergone a rework. They are now accessible much earlier in your journey and are designed to be more diverse and unique. The minimum requirement for items to serve as runeword bases is now determined by the crafted item, taking the highest level of the rune used or the base item. Angelic keys have been completely reworked. You can now obtain "Angelic augments" that can be applied to your chestplate when visiting the angelic realm. These augments provide unique passive bonuses, such as more projectiles, increased size, or complete changes to how a skill works. Angelic keys are now dropped by ancient monsters with the "fallen angel" Affix. Uber bosses have been adjusted to drop one of their unique items 100% of the time, but the specific item you receive is still subject to chance. The responsibility for crafting has been transferred from Blacksmiths to the Crafting Cubes located in each town. These Cubes feature a small grid that serves as your crafting hub for creating recipes. Additionally, Prospectron RX9000 is a new machine found in all towns, allowing you to grind up any destructible items, from Angelics to collected ores, to obtain materials for Crafting or Jewelcrafting. Don't forget to check out the updated Journal for the latest recipes!

Tarethiel Marketplace

We're making some significant changes to the Tarethiel Marketplace. Firstly, the market merchant has been relocated to the Village of MosArathim. We've also decided to do away with Ruby as a currency, replacing it entirely with Gold, making Gold the sole currency in use. We've given the marketplace a user interface (UI) makeover to enhance the clarity and user-friendliness of listings. Last but not least, alongside the use of gold, players now have the option to set runes as a price for items. When listing an item, players can utilize 6 slots to select a rune and specify the quantity they want for the item. It's worth noting that market taxation does not apply to runes.

Greetings, heroes

We have some great news regarding Hero Siege and what is next for the game. As some of you may know, we started a huge overhaul for the game during Q4 of 2022, and we have given it the project name Hero Siege 2.0 or shorter, HS2.0. Hero Siege 2.0 will be a free update for the existing version of Hero Siege! In this post, well tell you about the major changes in the game that you can expect when the update arrives. Currently, we do not have a date for when the update will be released, but we are getting closer to Closed Beta each day, and shortly after that we will have an open beta for everyone who is interested. Both of these betas have a huge impact on how the game will shape out on release, so we welcome you all to join the open beta testing! The PAS team is happy to discuss with all of you if you have questions, ideas and/or feedback in our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/herosiegeofficial HS2.0 Roadmap: Link to Roadmap Lets dive into the changes, shall we?

Art, Zones and Dungeons

We are recreating all of the environmental art from overworld zones to dungeons. With this new update, we get a more streamline art style for the whole game that feels natural to the theme of the game. HS2.0 will see much more dark and ominous visuals than before, creating the perfect atmosphere to battle hordes of various creatures the players may encounter in their journey. Here are some images from each act that have seen rework so far.

Tarethiel Marketplace

Tarethiel Marketplace will see a couple changes. First of all, the market merchant is moved to Act 3 Town, Village of MosArathim. Secondly, not only counting the market, Ruby - as a currency is completely removed, and its replaced by Gold, leaving it as the only currency. Thirdly, the market will see an UI uplift making listings more clear, and user friendly. Last but not least, In addition to gold, players can set runes as a price for items. With the usual gold, players are presented 6 slots where they can pick a rune, and how many of them they are asking for the item. The market taxation does not apply to runes.
This is the prototype screenshot of the new market listing UI.

Classes

We have re-designed and remade each class that is in the game from the ground up. All 19 of our classes have some refined and new unique talents that serve the new face of the game well, along with the synergies between talents. HS2.0 is going to see a shift from chance on hit passives, DOT builds and APS monsters to a more refined skill system, where active talents are the main focus and passive talents support that. For a more in depth look at some of the classes, take a look at our Devlog posts at https://panicartstudios.com/herosiege/?page=devlog!

Combat & Stats

Hero Siege 2.0 is moving towards a more traditional ARPG style combat system with active talents being the main focus, and passive abilities to support them. Players have the option to bind up to 6 different skills to binds of their choosing, and 2 more to the mouse buttons! Stats are also seeing some change, as we have done some overhauling there too. We are removing old damage types such as Wind Damage and Elemental Damage, and we have redesigned how those damages fundamentally work. There are some new stats too, most notably mentioning Attack Rating and Faster Cast Rate which will differentiate itemization between combat and caster builds. We will do a more indepth look at the stat changes and combat system in our Devlog real soon!

Items

Hero Siege 2.0 will feature a full rework to the item system. This includes fully reworking every item in the game with new stats and adjusting it to a brand new system for you to discover.
Frozen Carver in Hero Siege compared to itself in Hero Siege 2.0 Items wont have any upgrades and will instead have all their stats when you find them in-game. Satanic items can drop earlier in the game based on tier and have more varied level requirements, the goal with these changes is to make playing through the game and leveling up a much more exciting and fun experience. Set items have received a huge rework; They no longer change how certain abilities work or increase their damage, instead they now offer a variety of bonus stats and they're no longer class specific, meaning you won't be stuck with a set item that is not for your class during your playthrough! The bonus stats that the sets give are now tied to the amount of set pieces you have, meaning you don't need all set pieces to get the entire set bonus, but they still can be a very powerful combination of items to make your hero even stronger! The new set effects can be found detailed in our roadmap. Runewords have been changed as well, they are now primarily designed to be strong endgame item options that can be unlocked as you level up instead of being locked to max level. Their identities have also been reworked to supplement the new class reworks. For today well share two runewords with you below. The determining factor for a runewords level requirement is now base item requirement and highest needed runes requirement, also you can create them in any level item base (obviously resulting in a stronger item with a S-tier base).
With these changes our goal is to have a wider variety of runewords being crafted to cater to specific builds and needs a player could have. Flowing Sands for example is intended to be used together with the Sand Guardian Illusionist, whilst Mjolner provides powerful buff to Lightning builds.

Inventory & Stash

Large changes were made to the inventory, it will now be visibly more pleasing to look at and you will be able to see all your gathered loot at once as well as use the new charms system. Instead of being able to equip one charm, you can now place them into the golden slots on the right side of the first page of your inventory to equip up to 20 charms at once depending on their size. We think this change will assist the player in obtaining specific stats they might need such as resistances or mana regen. And it will also be a good way to boost existing stats such as Strength or Defense. An image of the new inventory with equipment and charm slots can be seen a bit further down this post. With the addition of a large rework to how the inventory system works in Hero Siege, items now take up a certain amount of inventory slots, reflecting the size of the item while it is in the player's inventory. We also made these sizes smaller than other ARPG games usually do to make more available space for collecting loot. The four empty slots under the belt & rings is the new place youll be able to store your Relics that you find on your journey to protect Tarethiel against evil. Up to four relics can be equipped at once and they can grant the player Stats, Passives and Active skills but have now been reworked to be more unique and powerful than before. Relics can also be upgraded by picking up the same relics again up to a maximum level of four, increasing their effects with each upgrade. Just like the Inventory, the Stash has also been updated to work the same way. Now you can view all the items in your stash with ease.

Augments

Augments are a new mechanic coming to take the place of what we knew as angelic abilities! They'll take the place of the left chest in the zone we all have been before, the Angelic Realm!
Augments offer a variety of buffs to certain abilities, going from more damage, more range, more AOE and some of them even change how the ability works! Each class will have 3 augments at launch, but more will eventually come in the future!
They work similar to the old angelic abilities, but instead of applying to your weapon, augments will be applied to your armor and they can be leveled up to increase their effects.

Guilds

The guild has had the same system for quite some time, so we decided to give the much needed love to this feature! Guilds will no longer be hero bound and the new guilds will now be Account bound instead. Guilds will now have levels and a ranking system, going from 1 to 100 and the ranking will be determined by the guild experience post lvl 100, meaning the guild with the most experience will be top 1, and so on. Guild experience can be acquired by simply playing the game, and there will be daily guild quests to help you in the journey of being the number one! Guild levels also now give Guild Perks! Every 10 levels will give a new perk to everyone in the guild, motivating even more to level up your guild! Guilds also now will finally have a shared stash (which is unlocked at guild level 50), so everyone can easily contribute and directly help your fellow guild members!

Servers

Previously, we have had most of the multiplayer functionality spread out all over the world. But when it came down to saving your online data or logging in, all that traffic happened via our main server, here at the PAS office located in Finland. This has caused issues for a couple reasons: Scalability and latency. Due to our optimization, security and validity of the online communications, the game often needs to wait for a valid response before continuing. That added up with the latency or poor connection, equals problems. To battle this issue, we are introducing account regions with HS2. Existing accounts get to use one (1) free migration to whatever region they wish and new accounts have to choose one before creation. The planned regions are: Europe (PAS Office Server) North America (Cloud) South America (Cloud) East Asia (Cloud) Now, its important to mention that no matter what region your account is, you can still play together with anyone else. These regions also do not have their own Market economy, but rather the Marketplace will be global.

WORMHOLE LEVEL DECAY

We have given a lot of tought on wormhole and leaderboard ranking system and overall competitive side of the game. This season we are implimenting a decay system for the top 50 players on each softcore leaderboard. When your character has completed its first Wormhole you can see the decay timer on your character slot on the character selection screen.

FAQ about the decay:

How much does my level decay? If your decay timer runs out you will lose 5% of your Wormhole level. For example a top 50 player with a Wormhole level of 100 loses 5 levels and the timer resets to seven days. How long can I be absent of wormhole pushing before decay affects me? The decay affects you if you are in top 50 of your characters leaderboard and you have not cleared a wormhole in 7 days You can prevent this decay happening by clearing a wormhole succesfully. One succesful run adds one day to your decay timer, up to 7 days. Why adding a decay? We believe that this will improve competition on seasonal Softcore characters, rewarding those who play actively throughout the season. Around an hour of play weekly should be enough to keep you from decaying. This is by design, as the system is new and we don't want it to be too punishing. Is this system permanent? We feel like this is the right way to go for Season 14. We will listen to the community feedback and adjust accordingly for the seasons to come!

Hello everyone, Season 14 Beta is now live! We will be releasing a more detailed set of patch notes in a few hours from now but here are some things you can look forward to in the S14 Beta: -New Zone Assets, many of the above ground act zones have had their entire sprites and themes change to be more thematic. -New Item tier, Chase tier. These items are linked to a specific zone and have a rare drop chance. Work together with your friends to find these lost items. -Item Rebalance. In S13 our items were not exactly on point as many of you know. We are working very hard to ensure the items feel great to wield or trade to others rather than just being the item you leave on the floor. These changes should also open up other build options. Not all items have been updated just yet but as we go through the beta these will be addressed. -Drop Balance Changes. Drop rates in S13 were not on point and drops felt too rare. Now you should see an increase in overall drops. -Chaos Tower reward system has changed including drop rates from King Rahkul. Pushing farther into the Chaos Towers now grants you better rewards. The higher level King Rahkul's that you kill also increase the odds of his drops increasing. -Wormhole Changes. Wormholes are now focused on competing on the ladder rather than as a farm zone. Every wormhole you enter, you will not gain and experience or loot until you successfully complete the timer and kill the boss. Your WH level will automatically +1 after the boss kill. -Ruby drops. Bosses, Act Bosses, Dungeon Chests and Uber Bosses now drop more crystals/rubies since there were some issues in S13. -Tons on quality of life changes from reducing slowdown, fixing skills that created a lot of fps issues, changes to the Adventure Journal and many more. This is just a short preview of some of the work we have done to make the world of Tarethiel better and we will continue to move forward and bring new life to Hero Siege. We look forward to seeing those of you who can participate in the Beta and everyone else when S14 officially releases! With love, -PAS Team

Next on the line will be to start the production on the upcoming Act 8 Expansion "Gates of Valhalla" now, and we will be informing about the progress through our social media so make sure you follow us! We will also be giving out both of these new skins to our Instagram followers today! So follow us to get a chance to get them! ^_^ @panicartstudios https://store.steampowered.com/app/1552901/Hero_Siege__Phanton_Captain_Skin/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1552900/Hero_Siege__Dark_Angel_Skin/ And here are the patch notes!

General

Season Rewards dont work currently, we will be fixing the issue with a patch tomorrow. - Shields are now shown in your healthbar - Enemies & Bosses now have unique cooldowns for each ability and the system is more dynamic - Added new dungeons - Projectiles now move relative to player speed (more dynamic + won't outrun your projectiles) - Movement skills now check if you have flying and will pass terrain that requires flying - Added tooltip to relics - Removed projectile blocking capabilities from Paladin's Blessed shields and Demonspawn's Bonestorm.

This can be toggled on or off based on preference - Removed D tier satanics from Black Market and satanic crafting - We have overhauled the Dodge & Block system. This new system will allow you to be able to dodge and block when you are at 0 stacks but it reduces your maximum cap. Melee characters using a shield will have a maximum of 75% block/dodge with no charges up. Ranged characters using a shield will have a maximum of 35% block/dodge with no charges up. Without a shield, melee characters remain at the 75% dodge/block and ranged characters will remain at 25% dodge/block without charges. This allows you to maintain some avoidance even when your charges reach 0 - Dodge & Block stacks are now hidden if 0 - All stats armor portion should now show in the item tooltip properly - Added the new item scrap system for Steam crate, this allows you to scrap unwanted steam cosmetics into scraps, 10 scraps will provide you with another key - Text is displayed whether your character can or cannot equip the Steam Crate cosmetic. - Cooldown reduction overhaul: Cooldown of some skills got changed so that each hard point you invest them will reduce the cooldown of the spell. It first reduces the flat amount and after that it takes the % Cooldown reduction. Idea behind this is to reduce one pointers being too effective and we don't want to enforce players to get 50% CDR to gain 100% uptime on some skills, IE: Whirlwind - Changed how Mining functions, now it takes 1 successful attempt to break the entire node - Improved refresh rate options - Added price to merchant confirmation prompt - Added the single-hit system. This will properly calculate damage when one projectile hits multiple enemies - Synced shield cosmetics in online so others will be able to see it now - Added cosmetics and skins to Wormhole prompt - Changed how our DOT system works. Now each player can individually apply their own dots/debuffs without conflicting with others - Increased exp from quests - Added minimap zoom with mouse wheel - Added minimap moving with pressing and dragging minimap with mouse wheel - Change whisper color for clarity - Added localization changes to skills and items (Trying to make skill tooltips less vague) - Added relic description to crafting menu - Ton of changes on visual affects so they do not cover so much of the screen - Adjusted mlvl of some dungeons & zones - Added unique enemy pool to every key dungeon - Added "Phasing" to the game, which allows players to walk through monsters. (Will be added to some items/relics maybe in future but for now it's used in some skills like whirlwind) - Lowered the damage of arcane beams - Reduced life leech effect from spells IE. Whirlwind

This was the old set bonus and it just never got deleted - Added the Cloud Key, this will take you to Sheeponia when used at the demon statue near the gravestones in town - Sight of the gods now grants bit bigger AOE vision - Amazon's set bonus now grants 50% additional poison damage instead of 25% - Added keybindings for show loot (alt) and new playerlist () - Changed required level for C tier satanics to level 68 and B tier satanics to level 88 - Increased the hp summons get from Death Lord's Set from 100% to 250% - Pyromancer's Firefly set now gives addition damage to fireflies while using it - Drastically increased Rune droprates

Here are the Season 10 Patch Notes

Chaos Shrines

"Chaos shrine has a chance to spawn instead of any shrine(Angel/Devil/Health/Boss), the chances will go up based on how many zones you have cleared(you have to kill some of the monsters not all). Ideally making it worthwhile to farm different zones, instead of just spamming one. The bonus chance will reset when resetting the game. " Triggering the shrine requires you to kill X amount of mobs, just like the boss shrines. What happens then? Well chaos:. There are multiple outcomes but I can assure you all of them are worth your time While on lower difficulties the rewards and possible enemy/boss encounters are tuned accordingly. Obviously on inferno you can reap the best rewards!

New era of exploration

Hero Siege season 10 will launch on 14th of July bringing completely re-worked classes and 2 talent trees for each class instead of the single talent tree we had for them before + more awesome QOL changes, balance, back end re-works, optimization and bug fixes for long existed problems!!

Paid Content

We put out some paid content also, so you can support our constant work to keep the game alive and refreshing since most of the work we do is free for everyone who owns the base game!

STEAM Lootboxes

We also put out a steam integration for awesome custom skins that can be obtained from lootboxes. Keys cost $1.49 and the items are tradable + sellable on the Steam Marketplace. We want to be completely transparent with our playerbase so here are the drop chances for each item tier: Chances for the lootbox drops are: - Superior Items (Blue) 65% - Legendary Items (Orange) 20% - Mythic (Purple) 10% - Satanic (Red) 4% - Angelic (Light Yellow) 1%
Here is a samurai with the new skin and satanic weapon skin + angelic shield skin
We will post the patch notes with the release, but you can still tune in on the open Beta to try out the new abilities and classes!! We are also going to start working on ACT 8 - Gates of Valhalla after the season comes out, so its going to be a really busy summer. We plan on completely overhaul the questing system, add new stuff to the guild system and bring a new class to the table "Jtunn" which is an Ice / Lightning mage with the good old Orb of Frost from Diablo 2 sorceress!

Season 10 Beta release!

It's been very hectic at the Panic Art Studios HQ. We are currently working on Season 10 and recently hired a new programmer to ease the work load, as well as a new designer/tester/community person "Wooxy" from our Discord. On the background of Season 10 our art team is working hard on Act 8 which will hopefully come out with Season 11! The open beta for season 10 is now live! Read the post before opting in! (opt in guide below).

Season 10 Features

- Runes are now tier listed from the most common to the rarest. You can combine 3 of the same runes to craft 1 of the higher tier rune. - All of the 17 classes have received a complete talent re-vamp, each of them now also having 2 talent trees for more diversity. - You can now choose which abilities you use by right clicking the ability slot in the HUD. You can even bind 1 ability to all 4 slots. (this gives us the ability to make use abilities on satanics/runewords etc). - Items will now have their unique random range in sockets when dropped (some still always drop with the same amount). - Items can now roll to multiple damage types (These are hand picked, as well as the types they can roll to). - Special Dungeons such as Black Tower are now locked in Inferno requiring a key which the monsters drop. - Lots of QoL improvements from our design team. - Completely re-written DoT + Stack system for poison, plague, burning, bleed etc. - Completely re-written the crit system, correcting many issues with the game. - Optimized difficulty curve for a more challenging leveling experience for fresh characters, so its not just a boring pick-your-nose while playing experience. - Completely re-written 3D audio engine, thus your party's attacks, impacts and effects outside of your FoV wont disturb you. - Mining can now be leveled up to 1000, increasing jade drop chance with every 100 points! - STEAM lootboxes (similar to CSGO lootbox system) containing weapon skins, shields etc. These can be sold in the Steam Marketplace, traded or used. - Major bug fixes, improved anti-cheat, better optimization, art improvements etc.

How to opt in to beta?!

Beta requires a completely new Panic.net account, since we don't want live players to be able to interact with beta users in any way, so you will need to create an account that will only be used on beta versions. Classes playable in the beta (in test mode currently) - Viking - Pyromancer - Marksman - Nomad - Pirate - Redneck - Samurai - Paladin - Amazon - Shaman Other classes are still old ones, and everything might be messed up for them. The BETA will most likely have bugs and crashes which can be reported to our discord's beta section, we will be updating frequently! Also this beta is only for PC! Go to your steam library, right click Hero Siege, choose Properties and navigate to the Beta tab, choose the beta option from the dropdown and press "Opt in".

Ladies and Gents, We stream development frequently on twitch, if you wish to check us up go to https://www.twitch.tv/panicartstudios/ You are free to come by and ask any questions and we will try our best to give you answers! We also take suggestions and like to talk about how to improve the game!!

[ 2019-04-17 11:43:08 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello! We have been working quietly and hard for the past 4 months. We are soon ready for public beta on the update, but are still polishing a few things!

Here are some of the 3.0 features!

Items Ton of hand crafted items and more stat varieties like cold damage, lightning damage, poison damage, mana per second, hp per second, mana after kill, hp after kill, magic find etc etc.
Runes Runes are no longer upgraded or have a star rating. Runes are what they are and can be equipped into weapons as well as the new gems!
Satanic Upgrades Since we capped ilevel and hand crafted satanics to suite different classes and playstyles we added a way to upgrade the item 10 times to have a sense of progression!
New Enemies We have been adding quite a lot of new stuff in the game, including new enemies :)
More area varity There will be a bunch of unique dungeons tied to a specific act and zone where specific stuff like runes drop more frequently.
Art improvements All the boss lairs now have a really unique feeling and atmosphere along with the game overall. All weapons in the game can be seen on your hero when equipped, and they all have unique attack animations too! :)

Shield Lancer We are also launching a new class "Shield Lancer" with the 3.0 patch!
Stay tuned for more updates!

[ 2019-04-12 00:39:45 CET ] [ Original post ]

So hard work, sleepless nights and overall stress has paid off, we have pretty much finished doing all the weapon animations so you can expect to show off your swaggy weapon in 3.0 to everyone ;)

We are also adding plenty of new zone specific dungeons where you can farm for certain stuff, for example the "Old Tower" in ACT 1 Zone 4 has 3 levels with a "miniboss" that drops runes with the highest chance in the game. We wanna put more weight on different areas in the game, so the player can do more than just grind wormholes. Also "Magic Find" stat is added to the game, to increase drop chance for special items. Networking engine re-work now enables players to have individual gaming experiences within the same game. The host no longer determines where you can go and when you have to leave a certain place, you can now just venture on your own while chatting with other players and join them via town portal if you wish! All weapons also have unique sound work done to them for the best audio-visual feedback.

[ 2019-02-19 21:45:41 CET ] [ Original post ]

We are working hard on the 3.0 for Hero Siege. Currently we are re-writing the networking code and working on rest of the weapon attack animations etc. The Networking code re-write will feature the system where clients are no longer host dependent, everyone can go wherever in the game they please so if the host leaves a zone the clients wont longer follow the host. What we have already done: - Cleaned all the code in the game, removed around 10000 lines of useless code. - Ported Hero Siege from GMS1 to GMS2 - Made loading and saving 10 times faster - Made animations for every weapon in the game by hand, yes pixel art in this is kinda crappy since you cant just make a model and put it into a skeleton like in 3D - Improved a boat load of things in the game art, sound and game play wise.
Here are the notes for what they are now, we will have a longer list closer to beta:

GENERAL

- Whole game engine re-programmed for better performance - Max level lowered to 100 - All loot is now hand crafted, no more spell weapons with strength etc. - Due to new loot statistics and hand crafting there is now way more variety in the game! - Weapons now have types, and only specific classes can use specific types - Removed Chest / Helm synergies from the game. - You can now shoot 360 degrees, any direction you desire. - Saving and Loading improved for faster speed. - View Port for the game is now 1024x576 instead of 966x544

Over the years starting from being beginners in programming, making the game for 6 years and picking new skills and logical thinking the game has become a layered mess of new systems on top of old systems and newer systems on top of new systems. It's really hard to add content and fix bugs since many things are done in multiple places.

What can you expect from this cleanup?

- Better performance, higher FPS - Getting rid of the multiplayer problems and bugs in the process. Since systems will be implemented better and smarter, the whole multiplayer code will be optimized for maximum performance. - More frequent balancing which is now 100 times easier and faster to do since everything is managed by 1 script instead of 4-5 different scripts. - Easier to add content such as new enemies, items etc. - Faster work pace for us developers. Sorry if the text is confusing, Its 7 AM and I still havent completely woken up yet. Anyways good things are coming! :) Cheers, and thank you for supporting the game!!!

Features we are working on, and that will be in future update:

- 360 direction attacking, we will get rid of the 4 direction combat. - Bigger view scale to get rid of distorted pixels in 4K screens etc. - Completely new item art and item system - More things to craft! - More exciting things... more later ;) -Kudos, Elias

14 Hours till the next season launches!

You still have time to grind for the awesome season rewards!

Rewards from Left to Right (Top50 / Top10 / Top1)

What to expect?

Networking We have worked on a better networking engine, which means the game plays smoother and players "twitch/glitch/bug/warp" less and the game feels the same playing either on client or host. Balance A complete overhaul in numbers, we started from really small numbers and reduced the endgame number scaling so that the numbers dont get out of hand. We also fixed all the oneshotting mechanics and bugs that we found while doing the overhaul. The game is now challenging at all times, and every difficulty can be started at level 1 for that extra challenge! Graphics Improved a ton of ingame/overall and menu/game UI.
Classes Remade a lot of abilities for different classes to feel better and do more impact/be more useful. Here are the Final patch notes to come:

Please update the game, the error has been fixed! Sorry for the inconvenience!

Heyo, We are currently working on releasing Hero Siege for PS4. We are in the midst of QA and fixing sony's bug/requirement list as we go. Hero Siege will be crossplatform on PS4 with PC / Mobile (HOPEFULLY). There are ton of restrictions and guidelines we need to work on for this to happen so it will take some time unfortunately.... Switch will be cross with PC / Mobile as well, but not with PS4 due to Sony's policies. I know this is tricky but we will try to make it as good as possible.

Hello, We are patching the game and server next week so there will be a short maintenance at 12 AM GMT+2. (Monday 17th) The main fix is the random crash that happens in multiplayer out of nowhere, this was due to Game Maker's built in Package Handler that some times handled packages the wrong way which results in a crash. We are also releasing a new skin for Marksman which is the Eastfoundian Trooper. All money made with this skin will be put into the development of Eastfound, so we can make the game as awesome as we possibly can!
Here are some screencaps of Eastfound:

Hello, We have discovered that the built in packet handler in the Game Maker engine fails on occasion when it's trying to receive a very large chunk of consecutive data, which causes the game to crash randomly. Our team is fixing the issue and we will update the game as soon as possible! - Pas team

[ 2018-09-08 17:42:31 CET ] [ Original post ]

All expansions (normal + collectors) will be -35% off this week! - Karp of Doom - Depths of Hell - Wrath of Mevius

[ 2018-08-27 17:52:12 CET ] [ Original post ]

Yoyoyo! We have planned a lot of things for Hero Siege in the future, such as an unique satanic system where items actually give you new abilities and new statistics. So you can farm for a certain item in order to change the way you play, for example this weapon will make Viking's attacks ranged (throwing tomahawks):
Also the new act has been in planning, and will be started when Eastfound is ready. Also hiring an experienced multiplayer/network programmer to help Jussi re-program the whole online engine for a better and more smooth gaming experience! We are currently working on Eastfound, our zelda / alundra inspired story driven action adventure game

We are here, working hard every day! :)

First of all we would like to apologize for the unexpected server outages like last night. These have been due to a hardware failure, which we will be addressing later today at 18.00 GMT+2. The maintenance will take between 2-3 hours and hopefully resolve these issues . Thank you for your patience.

[ 2018-06-19 04:48:16 CET ] [ Original post ]

We are aware of the issue and working on fixing it as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this.

Hello, So as the reviews have stated, the game pretty much seems like a DLC simulator, which is a result of 4 years of hard work and content creating. The DLC has piled up and now making it look bad. We decided to change the pricing of the DLC, since removing some and making it part of the base game would be wrong towards the people who have bought the DLC's in the first place. Our new pricing is: - Skins now cost $0.99 - Classes now cost $1.99 - Older expansions cost $1.99 and $2.99 for Collector's Edition. - The Newest expansion will always stay at its release price, and will be lowered once we come out with a new expansion. I am extremely sorry for any inconvenience this might have caused.

Hello everybody! First of all, I would like to thank you all for making our small team's dream come true. We have been working our dream jobs for the past 4 years that Hero Siege has existed, and we will continue doing it till the day we die. If not with Hero Siege, then another game that we will make :) We have 1,000,000 registered accounts in the game at this date, which is frigging crazy and awesome! Now to the topic: We have been thinking about many things regarding the game's future and here are some of the things we want to bring for you guys to enjoy: - A smooth working trading system where you can trade between rubies/runes/loot (for example give 10000 rubies for a piece of loot, or give 2 runes for that loot etc). I think this will create some kind of financial ecosystem inside the game. - Disenchanting items to get materials that can be used to upgrade your items to the current WH Level matching iLevel - Daily Quests and quest streaks (do daily quests for a week in row and get a ton of rubies etc). - New bosses and WH themes - New class (Marauder) - Unique Satanics (randomized satanics will be removed). This means items drop with vary stats that change playstyle etc.

Hello, We wanted to bring you the S4 Beta due to major changes in the end game (wormholes). Due to popular demand, and taking in new player motivation to compete on the leaderboards we have done these things: - iLevel capped - Wormhole system re-vamped - Toxic WH effects removed - Wormhole levels are now randomized We don't want the wormhole level gain to get out of hand, so rather make it about skills + talent/stat optimization in order to progress higher. Also since the wormhole levels are now randomized, botting and clear tactics no longer work. There will be more areas in the launch, but just 2 for now in wormholes. Join the beta by choosing the beta tab in properties, and check the code "HEROSIEGEBETA666" in order to opt in the beta.

Helloooo!! Sooo we have been going over the negative reviews and you do all have good points about various things in the game. We have come into conclusions about what we will improve and do so here you go, a list of stuff thats coming in the next patch:

New mana system

Mana will now work very differently. Every spell has a starting percentage like 10% etc, which is the base manacost from your maximum mana. On top of this, spells cost will scale very slightly per talent point by a small flat number. This means that there will never be a situation where you cant cast a spell due to lack of mana.

Balance

We are addressing the oneshot stuff by decreasing damage from bosses and minibosses, as well as re-work/improve bosses like Death. We aim to bring a bit longer boss fights, but so that the boss doesn't instantly punish you. Also enemies are now a tad more interesting since rare enemies have way more hp than before, but the normal ones are the usual hack n slash.

Potion Pickup

Picking up potions now makes you immortal for the pickup duration and slightly after, so no more getting killed by potions. Tho you should still be cautious not to get surrounded ^^

Translations

We will be bringing translations for China, Japan and Korea.

Paladin + White Mage shields

We re-worked the shields completely, you can now tank a ton of damage, and the bubble has its own healthbar in order to track its HP better.

Twinking

You can now talk to Gar Nor and lock your EXP gain so you can twink a low level character.

Servers

You no longer need to put password on a private server. Joining to servers wont crash anymore, that got worked out.

Dropping Items (Trading)

You can now drop items to the ground and they appear to every player in the game, and they can also pick them up. So now you can give that epic loot to your friends.

Overall

Improvements in performance, networking and overall bug fixes. So yeah, keep those reviews coming, positive or negative. As longs it has feedback and helps us with our work ^^

[ 2017-09-20 07:00:20 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello, We are working with WhisperGames from China in order to bring Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean translation for the game. This has been on the works for some time now, its a slow process unfortunately and since we are from Finland, it was really hard to find a reliable company to help us with the translations. Also I noticed that there are ton of negative reviews because the game doesn't have chinese translation. Look, I get it you like the game and we are happy for that but please stop this, its hurting the games listing and sales as well as its future. We do listen to players and read forum topics even if we dont always answer them, and for example have been working to bring you the translations that you so much wanted. Have a good one. - PAS Team

[ 2017-09-14 09:37:55 CET ] [ Original post ]

Helloooo, We are currently working on making the mana system less tedious. All classes will be getting a base manacost for the spells which will be percentual from your max mana + a flat increase per point. This way the manacosts won't ever go so overboard that you would not be able to cast a spell. Hopefully we will get this out soon! Hold on! :)

Hello, So since the anti-cheat is updated and beta item scaling is a tad smaller than it was before, it will flag your main account heros as cheaters. This will get you banned, so PLEASE create a new account as prompted in the previous news to play the beta. If you have been banned by the BAN IDENTIFIER: F please reply here with your account's name and I will unban you, also after that create a new acc for beta access. Sorry for this, we shouldve thought about it before.

Hellooo!! Soo we have been fighting with the PS4 version of the game for a while, we planned to release it as 30 FPS due to the game being so heavy. But during massive debugging and investigating we managed to get the PS4 FPS from 32 up to a stable 80-85 by some cool magic tricks! This means the PS4 version will be coming out as 60 FPS and that PC performance will be at least doubled! This is a victory for all of us due to lags in wormholes etc! Just wanted to drop by and tell this ;) Have a great day!

Hello, So we have a sale atm, which did bring us like 60,000 new players. This means the servers are experiencing some serious flood, and are crashing often. We are looking to upgrade the computers at our provider's to support higher performance. There also was a problem with login (wrong password etc).

Please vote here: Do you want us to let players unlock any difficulty at any time, so you don't need to progress thru all of them if you dont want to. Let the community decide.

Hello everyone, We know you were excited about season one in Hero Siege. Trust me, we were excited as well. But everything didn't go as we planned. About leaderboard. We accidentally set wrong value into our code. Basicly this means, it shows non-seasonal character leaderboards, not seasonal character. Seasonal and non-seasonal characters are able to play together. The problem with this obviously is, that non-seasonal characters are able to boost seasonal characters and share items. Relics and items in your inventory dissappearing. This one is painful for couple of reasons. It doesn't happen to everyone and it doesn't happen to us. If we could make our relics and items in inventory dissappear, we could study it much better. We are informing our server guy, that he needs to take a better look at the script when it comes to loading the character slots. Or whatever is causing those issues. Overall, we are working hard to make everything right and fix these issues. We are not happy with the patch that we released. We are sorry for this. Because of the reasons mentioned above, we are going to reset the ladder. We want this to be fair for everyone. As an apology, we are going to give players 10,000 rubies (you get to keep rubies which you farmed). There is a Patch coming soon to address the biggest issues.

With the upcoming Season 1 patch we will also change the meta quite a bit. The Viking will get a huge buff with his new 9th talent re-work. It now adds 1% per point flat damage increase and doubles the effect with chest or helm synergy. Every other class got buffed pretty much and slightly nerfed marksman / demonspawn. We are still working on polishing the patch so please be patient, we will release it next week hopefully! We will also plan the season 1 rewards later, so just know that those will come but will not be announced just yet! New bosses for wormholes and new areas for wormholes are also coming in a later patch.

[ 2016-08-14 01:09:44 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello everyone, I am now giving a status update due to some worries and questions you guys have. About the upcoming patch: We are still working on it, there are scripts we need to add in order to get all the features in and a lot of balancing we are doing right now. We rather postpone it than release a broken game. We want it to be the best product possible, this patch is very important for us and all of you so it needs to be good. We will release it asap. About concerns of Hero Siege support: We currently have 5 people working at our office including our game tester / designer / community manager Sarcaster There is 2 people working on Eastfound so we still support Hero Siege and will keep adding content to it and ironing it out. We are also trying to polish all the nasty multiplayer bugs out as well as we can.

[ 2016-08-10 13:18:57 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello, We are trying to get all the stuff done by the end of the week, so please be patient. We are working really hard to bring this out! :) We will push the Necromancer skin also out when the patch goes live so dont belive the release date (had to push it forward so it doesnt come out before the patch). Anyway hope you guys are ready to start smashing that leaderboard! There will also be another update after this one with new wormhole bosses and maybe new wormhole areas :)

[ 2016-08-01 21:30:57 CET ] [ Original post ]

This is not relevant to Hero Siege other than its our next game that is coming out in 2017. We are still working on Hero Siege tho and keeping support! Anyway if you're interested in following Eastfound's process you should follow our team in Twitter @eliaspixel @aapelikutila @jussi_ku @niinakoi @thesarcaster The game will be absolutely massive with an epic story line and lots of content!

[ 2016-07-31 12:23:10 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello everyone! Exciting patch is on the way! In this post we are going to tell you what we are going to add/change. We are going to reset wormhole level since we are going to start season one in next patch! One season lasts for six months. If you want to compete in the leaderboards you have to create a new character, check "season" button, level to 150 and then jump in to wormholes! This also gives new incomers a chance to compete with old veterans! There are some visual rewards for people who gets to top 50. #1 player gets a diamond pentagram next to his name, #2 gets golden pentagram, #3 silver pentagram and everyone between 4-50 gets bronze pentagram. If you don't want to climb leaderboards just continue playing with your old character! We are going to remove "Gold to ruby" conversion totally. BUT we will increase the amount of rubies you get as loot. Magister Kujala is going to sell mystery chests in Town of Inoya for rubies. You are able to get hats, satanic items, wormhole keys and relics from these mystery chests. The amount of rubies you get from wormhole bosses scales with wormhole level. From wormhole level 1 to 50 you get loot from mystery chests which matches the wormhole level you are currently tackling. After you get above wormhole level 50, you have a chance to get better satanic loot from mystery chests. This caps at wormhole level 100. When the patch comes live, your rubies will be compressed to 2500. For example, if you have 5000 rubies, after patch you'll have 2500 rubies. If you have 300 rubies, after patch you still have same amount of rubies. Also wormhole bosses are going to have a chance to drop really rare loot! This new and exciting patch will be released next week! We have also fixed bugs, balanced characters but all that information you are able to check from patch notes when then patch goes live!

[ 2016-07-27 13:08:42 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello fellas! Something completely irrelevant to Hero Siege, but just wanted to drop out that we have done the graphics as a collaboration with a few indie friends of us that just got their first game on STEAM. So if you feel like you would like to play a really challenging platformer and support some up and comming indies, then please add this game to your wishlist: http://store.steampowered.com/app/448520 We are also working on awesome new stuff for Hero Siege and lots of balancing is coming due to us having Sarcaster between devs and community to ensure the best possible feedback and support loop!

[ 2016-07-26 04:32:32 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hola! We have lots of things coming to Hero Siege soonish! We are removing the gold to rubies conversion for good and will instead give more ruby drops from wormholes. Rubies can be used to buy mystery chests which can either give you relics, high item level satanics for people over 50 WH (better than what you get from WH), or a bunch of keys or wormhole keys and maybe even hats n stuff! (These can also drop from major bosses with a low percentage). We will also be welcoming season 1 and the guilds!

[ 2016-07-20 19:16:32 CET ] [ Original post ]

So since there have been lots of requests for a Pyromancer skin, I've been putting in the hours and working at this. There is still plenty of work!

[ 2016-07-16 22:45:57 CET ] [ Original post ]

I have banned a big bunch of players today which sucks, I don't want to do it but its the only way to get rid of people who ruin the fun for others. Please don't cheat, our system is very strickt and it will flag you and get you banned. Also do not accept cheated items from cheaters, because those get you flagged and it makes our lives harder. There will be a system in the future that detects changed stats and instabans the cheater immediately, but for now its all manual. So yeah, lets all be legit and enjoy the game yo!

[ 2016-06-28 03:47:02 CET ] [ Original post ]

A new class is coming... I can sense the storm approaching....

[ 2016-06-04 23:55:44 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello fellas, This is a status update for plenty of things: We have fixed a few more nasty bugs that have been haunting the game for ages! We also have had time to really balance out Wormholes and balance relics out and find exploits etc. We will be patching the game next week which will mostly be bug fixes and optimization etc. On the same time we update all PHP scripts with better optimization which should improve plenty of things server side. So what you all prolly wonder, what is "The Void"? The Void will be a "Raid Dungeon" for a team of 4 players. You can open "The Void" as a group of 4 players and take on some seriously nasty 4 player gimmick bosses with many phases. We will Introduce Double Talents and will slowly start adding tank and healing specs to all classes (well not every class is going to be a tank and a healer :D). The Void will require 2 DPS, 1 Healer and 1 Tank to be cleared. The bosses drop higher item level loot than Wormholes and are a ton harder and require real cordination between the group. This is all for now, we have a ton of work to do and that much time that the days offer so..... Keep your pants on for now :)

[ 2016-06-02 16:58:32 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello everyone, I wanted to bring this to your attention. There are still alot of cheaters, and we are manually banning them but the amount of reports are just crazy so I cannot put my time into reading them so this is what we do: Our system that detects that item stats have been changed with a 3rd party software, or any values in the game have been changed with a 3rd party software will just permanently ban you instantly if this happens. Not to worry because the algorithm is 100% proof and wont ban you without reason. In better news, we are slowly getting those wormholes in a working state and can start thinking about launching the first season! ps. I dont like banning people but I hope this stops atleast 1 of you from doing something stupid!

[ 2016-05-28 12:27:11 CET ] [ Original post ]
