**PATCH 0.1.2.47492**

**__Highlights:__** - We had a fantastic opening hour ...for people who knew how to play the game. A few nuclear changes to make it **new player friendlier**: - Increased the starting weapon range - The world (seed) when you're level 1 is now the same for all players (i.e. minimum potentially punishing RNG on the first map) - Lowered the cost of the first three level ups - Apothecary and the crafting of Healing Elixirs are now available from the start instead of Level 2 - Husk Archers arrows don't set the target on fire anymore

- The witch reacts to your growth but it was too much (not to mention bugged). To make the game more fun for higher level players: - Way less often Calamities for "aimlessly wandering about" - Wretch Calamity (the cold one) requirement lowered to 10 kills - Assassin Calamity (the slo-mo one that lowers health) shouldn't request Assassin spawns while it's inactive now - Grenadier now comes into enemy pool at lvl 15 (still can be triggered earlier in events), other enemies unlock after him - New traps are added a bit slower to the pool. Max number of traps on the map rises slightly slower with further level-ups

- 21:9 and other non-16:9 aspect ratios should work properly now - Also, more resolutions available for your display device

**__Gameplay:__** - Inventory: added option to consume entire stack of crystalized witchfire at once `community suggestion` - Vastly reduced the intensity of the stamina exhaustion post process effect `community request` - (we're working on some additional options to turn some of the effects off - but that will require a little bit more work) - Iron Cross now correctly progresses towards its upgrade requirements - Crouch Toggle/Hold option now works correctly - Wisp now stops spawning in new enemies when players moves too far away - Moreover, if the players moves too far and doesn't come back for a long while, the event fails and all spawned enemies de-materialize - Proximity mines trigger zone no longer stops projectiles - Henbane now heals up to maximum health in the Elixir's current healing duration - Multiple Cursed Chests can no longer spawn in the same spot - Enemies should teleport to a navigable area after spending too much time outside of it - Settings: QoL improvement: settings no longer stop at the first or the last option (you can cycle through them using one button) `community request` - Apothecary: changed 'Herbs' to 'Angelica' to avoid confusion - Melee/Spell/Elixir + Dash combo no longer makes the weapon disappear - Melee now snaps properly to all enemies - Enemies won't attack until they've fully materialized - Inventory: added section which displays ALL items - Removed misplaced trap spawnpoints that could trigger as soon as the player entered the Irongate Castle - Galley Slave now grants rewards on death - Fixed an Event-related infinite witchfire exploit (who found it?) - The ghost that leaves footsteps should have less problems leading the player to his possessions

**__Tech/graphics/audio:__** - Fixed evil sinkholes in some rocks geometry - Fixed missing collision on crates and other stuff in the quarry - Miscellaneous visual polish - Tweaked volume of impact sounds. This should make shooting and kills even more satisfying - Tweaked the volume of the explosions your drop when using the Ring of Excreta. Cool new sounds coming soon

**__Known issues for the next patch:__** - We now know exactly what causes DLSS Frame Generation crashes but might take a moment to deploy a proper fix.
