Hello Diamond, Eternal and Unique Item Creator Supporters!

This week I am working on the 0.11.1 patch. One of the big elements in 0.11.1 is a refactor with how damage and stats work internally. Most of this won’t be visible, but will help us to add new game elements (including Uniques) more effectively.

It will have some visible in-game effects, like physical damage mods being scaled by percentage increases to damage correctly. It will also allow us to finish some of the items which have been waiting on this refactor, like Nuclear_Raven’s Infernal Mantle

This week Rory is away on holiday, so if you contact him regarding your item, please be patient about receiving a reply. If you have an urgent request, please send it through to me.

I’ll be sending out an email soon to all the new Eternal Supporters with details on requesting their unique item and Avatar.

0.11.0b-e

We didn’t put any unique items in these patches, which were mostly fixes and quality of life improvements for 0.11.0. I hope you have all had a chance to play some 0.11.0.

I managed to get my first challenge completed, the full clear of each area, I am now trying to complete the Rogue Exiles challenge.

0.11.1

We have a set of uniques very close to completion. We expect 0.11.1 to contain at least four of them, and with how many are close, small patches from 0.11.1 will also be including unique items.

I am looking forward to being back on track with weekly unique item releases again. We have more unique maps, weapons, and finally, some unique flasks.
