Dear Monster Keepers, this is the second patch for the beta and includes a bit more changes this time.
Two new Monsters added - Raduga, new Champion east most of Ancient Woods (a new room was added for him) - Toxiquus, encountered in southern parts of Stronghold Dungeon Also, monster distribution in Stronghold Dungeon and Ancient Woods was adjusted a bit
Options Menu added to the game Includes Combat Animations Speed, Volume settings, Key Bindings for keyboard and Resolution settings. The game launcher dialogue got removed now. Enemy encounter levels changed Enemy levels are no longer raised when the Keeper rank increases, instead, after the first area (Mountain Path) the enemy encounter level increases based on how many rooms with monster encounters were discovered. This gives a smoother progress instead of the previous difficulty spikes, independent of which areas the player explores first. Also this way the player isn't incentivized to avoid Champion encounters. If loading an old savegame, the enemy levels will automatically adjust in the order the areas were explored in that savegame. Combat ranking adjustments The "Overkill Damage" rating in combat was renamed to "Overkill" and is now also increased by 1% for every buff one of the player monsters have at the end of combat, by 1% for every debuff an enemy had when killed and by 3% for every poison or burn dot damage that was triggered on them. This should make compositions that rely on dot damage be a bit more competitive now in regard to getting a good score. Keeper Lancer rank It is possible to reach the 'Keeper Lancer' rank now, which enables to buy a couple of +3 Equipment at the shop (Helmet/Wizard Hat/Impact Ring) New Equipment Added a new equipment 'Sun Pendant' (dropped by Raduga) that applies a shield to the wielder whenever receiving a buff Balancing Changes
