ALPHA & BEYOND PATCH NOTES

Dungeon Defenders II is growing up! Gather around as it emerges from the primordial ooze and turns into an Alpha. With a big bang, the Alpha & Beyond update adds story, a rebalanced Nightmare mode, freaking rocket boots and so much more to the Etherian universe. Okay, we couldn't figure out which "getting better" metaphor to go with, so we went with all of them.

What's beyond? We're going to rapidly iterate on and improve the core feature set of the game. New feature work will still be ongoing in Alpha (insert obligatory controller support tease here), but we will also be focusing on bug fixing and balancing on a near weekly basis. Thank you all for your support. We can't wait to hear what you think of Alpha & Beyond!

    FEATURES

    Alpha Text

    • Changed the Pre-Alpha watermark to Alpha. And that’s it. That’s the Alpha & Beyond update. We did it! There’s nothing left to do with the game. It’s done. It’s finished.
    • Wait. Oops. It’s not finished. Our producer Alvin says, “There’s still more work left! More balance, more bug fixes, more new features.” More, more, more. Okay, Alvin!
    • We don’t have a producer named Alvin.
    • Added a new intern named Bill. Changed Bill’s name to Alvin (we can do that). Promoted Alvin to producer, title only. #BlameAlvin

    Daily Map Bonus System

    • Added a Daily Map Bonus to encourage players to play on different maps.
    • Every day, you’ll get 5 charges that grant bonuses. Playing on a different map and winning will use a charge.
    • In Free Play, a charge will give you extra XP. In End Game, a charge will improve your Victory Chest drop. Activate a charge by playing and completing a different map.
    • Your fifth and final charge will grant a super XP or Victory Chest boost.
    • You cannot purchase extra charges. This is not a monetization mechanic.

    Private and Public Tavern Changes

    • First of all, you can go straight to a Private Tavern from the Main Menu. Did you just cheer out loud? We did, too.
    • Plus, you can now move back and forth between the Private and Public Tavern by using the appropriate door in the Tavern!

    New Monk Passives and Skill Sphere

    • Passives:
      • Purge Evil:  Enemies that die inside Serenity Aura detonate and deal a percentage of the monk's Defense Power as damage around it. Appears on the Malthius Legendary Polearm (this is a rework of the previous Malthius Legendary passive).
      • Serenity Slows:  Serenity aura slows targets inside it. Appears on medallions of Powerful rarity and higher.
      • Serenity Range:  Serenity Range increased by a percentage - appears on all armor pieces of Powerful rarity and higher.
    • Skill Sphere:
      • Serenity Aura Gambit:  Serenity Aura Range is increased but Health is reduced.

    Skill Spheres UI

    • Added “Level Unlocks” on each Skill Sphere so players can understand the progression.
    • Added “Effects of Current Spheres” section that details what your Spheres are currently giving your hero.
    • Added “View All” button to allow players to quickly find Skill Spheres of any type.
    • Reorganized the Skill Sphere selection menu to display more Spheres on screen at once.

    The Scavenger

    • Your TIB has been replaced by a homeless man. Egads!
    • You’ll find the Scavenger in the Tavern. If you run out of inventory space, The Scavenger will hold onto anything you pick up when you have a full inventory. He'll also collect items that fall out of the world, but you'll have to make space in your Inventory to get them back!
    • Items that are not collected from the map are not sent to the Scavenger.
    • Items that expire in the Scavenger's stash are taken by him and you will never get to see them again! They are not sold.

    Story

    • Added an introduction cinematic created by Blackmeal! The cinematic explains what’s happened in the five years between DD1 and DD2.
    • Added new campaign NPC dialogue. If you want to get more story, you might want to play through the Campaign again!
    • Speaking of story...

    Happy Ramparts and Happy Throne Room

    • We replaced the Besieged versions of The Ramparts and The Throne Room with more “happy” versions. There are a few minor gameplay differences on these versions.
    • The Ramparts:  The Cannon subobjective has been removed from this version as it does not need to shoot down incoming enemy ships. The guards will move the cannon back into place should the castle ever come under siege.
    • The Throne Room:  Two of the extra lanes that were in Throne Room have new doors installed. These two doors that lead to the lower crystal will hopefully hold those extra enemies off. But for now, PROTECT THE KING AND THE PRINCE. They are standing up by the throne with a few trembling guards.

    Onslaught Mode

    • Added Onslaught versions of Throne Room and Little-Horn Valley.

    New Pet Abilities

    • Premium pet ability: Void Tendrils (Creeper)
    • Monthly pet ability: Field of Swords (Creeper)

    Hero Deck UI

    • Hero Deck cards now display the costume of the hero! 

    Summary Screen Changes

    • Summary Screen now has a vote:  Replay/Retry or Return to Tavern. The game will immediately transition after all players vote. If you’re in a solo match, the game will transition when you cast your vote.
    • Replay only works if all players vote for it.

    Costume Shop UI

    • We added the ability to preview unlockable accessories from the shop UI. Just look at those sweet Magma Mage upgrades!

    Hero Costumes

    • There are three glorious new Hero Costumes:
    • SteamPunktress (Huntress) - 1200 Gems
      • This costume has rocket boots! It has 3 custom animations, including a unique spawn-in animation. It has 3 mythic accessories. And it’s pretty much the coolest thing ever.
    • Dryad Apprentice - 800 Gems
      • Become one with nature!
    • Magma Mage (Apprentice) - 1200 Gems
      • Evolve this costume to turn into a Volcano. At higher levels, this costume’s scarf leaves trails of lava in its wake. It has 3 custom animations and 3 mythic accessories. Finally a cool Apprentice costume!

    The Big Hunt Monthly Quest

    • Standard pet: Kitty General (Gato)

    Siphon Site D Updates

    • We have added some quality of life additions into Siphon Site D. We noticed a number of players falling to their deaths in more than a few sections of the map, which led to understandable frustration. Some holes have been filled, and some areas have been updated to be more distinct from other sections of the map. Hopefully this eases some of the unnecessary frustrations with the map.

    Dragonfall Sewers Updates

    • Dragonfall Sewers also received some much-needed adjustments. A number of jumps have been adjusted to be less frustrating. A RAMP, A GLORIOUS RAMP has been added to the ledge near the Forge. The subobjective lane that is close to the Forge area now has less pipes and more cavern. We added some bridges between the two sides of the map to allow easier transitions between both sides as well as adjusted the center pipes for a better jumping experience.

    Dialogue Box Updates

    • We tightened these up a lot, adding SFX, animations, and fades, especially on level 3.

    Quest Updates

    • Created splines for all Quests that involved NPCs.
    • Removed the ‘Open Mailbox’ Quest.
    • Removed all ‘Open the Forge’ Quests.
    • Moved the Relic Hunter Quest to later in progression.

     

    BALANCE

    Player Scaling Balance

    • Updated the enemy level scaling per player for Free Play Hard, End Game Insane and Nightmare:
      • Enemies will now be 3 levels lower per player missing on Free Play Hard and End Game Insane.
      • Enemies will now be 7 levels lower per player missing on Nightmare.

    Nightmare Balance

    • Added a specific difficulty rating for two players. Nightmare now has difficulty ratings for 1, 2 and 4 player buckets.
    • Added a specific difficulty rating for two players. Nightmare now has difficulty ratings for 1, 2 and 3-4 player buckets.
    • Updated the threats for each player bucket to be more consistent.
    • Updated the Nightmare mega schedule to be more challenging.
    • Adjusted enemy health for Nightmare.

    Loot Drop

    • Loot no longer drops from regular enemies on Wave 1 in Free Play and End Game. Loot will drop from these enemies on Wave 2 and beyond in Free Play and End Game.
    • Loot will drop from Special Enemies and Minibosses on Waves 1 and 2 (and beyond) in Free Play and End Game.

    Build Item

    • Build Legendary Weapons now only drop in Nightmare 1 onward. Other build passives still appear throughout the game (for the time being), but the legendary weapons have different drop rules.
    • Victory Chests now have a high chance of having the Legendary Build Weapons drop from them. This is an extra roll and doesn't consume the default item roll of the Victory Chest. Note: eventually all build items will have a high chance of appearing from Victory Chests.
    • Build Items are boosted by the Daily Bonus system.
    • Build Legendary Items only appear starting on the fourth wave in all Nightmare maps. They will not drop before Wave 4.

    Lane Resistance

    • Updated each map to have Neutral Lanes.
      • These Neutral Lane traits will not have resistances on the enemies. This will allow opportunities for players to place towers in order to cover multiple lanes without being punished by the resistances. This is for all playlists all the way from Free Play Easy to Nightmare IV.
    • Removed resistances from air lanes and sub-objective lanes for all difficulties (this is a temporary change but we’d love to hear your feedback!).
    • Removed resistances from air lanes and subobjective lanes for all difficulties.

    Onslaught

    • Onslaught Mode reward schedule rebalanced:  It now has a chance to give out much higher iPwr loot earlier in the Round progression. Getting to later Rounds still increases the iPwr range and makes it more likely to receive great loot, but it should start feeling rewarding much earlier in the progression.
    • Rebalanced Onslaught schedules to reduce some of the unfair-feeling difficulty spikes:
      • Reduced overall count of enemies during the Hordes theme by 20%.
      • Reduced overall count of Lightning Bugs by 20%.
      • Reduced overall count of Wyverns by 20%.
      • Reduced overall count of enemies during the Drakin theme by 15%.
      • Reduced overall count of enemies during the Warboar theme by 15%.
      • These reductions are weighted towards low-threat lanes, meaning that Solo players should see an additional difficulty reduction through these changes.
      • Increased the level reduction when playing with less than 4 players.

    Pets Balance

    • Updated pet auto attack values (damage and attack speed) for all pets
    • Updated pet auto attack damage types for all pets
    • Updated roll chance for species and elemental abilities for all pets
    • Updated evolution recipes to be consistent with pet rarity
     

    Free Play Experience

    • Revised experience on all Free Play maps to follow new complexity-bucket groupings:
    • Gates of Dragonfall, Dragonfall Bazaar and Forest Ambush give the least XP.
    • Siphon Site D, Dragonfall Sewers, Forgotten Ruins, Liferoot Forest and The Ramparts gives average XP.
    • Nimbus Reach, Greystone Plaza, Little-Horn Valley and Throne Room give the highest XP

    • Hearty Blockade (Passive):  Hero Health scalar reduced 10% Max -> 5% Max.
    • Phoenix Luck (Passive):  Crit Chance reduced 9% Max -> 8% Max.
    • Phoenix Call (Passive):  Defense Power scalar reduced 400% Max -> 200% Max.
    • Pyromania Damage (Passive):  Scalar decreased 19% -> 10%.
    • Tripwire Damage (Passive):  Scalar decreased 19% -> 10%.

    BUG FIXES

    General

    • Fixed an issue where a ring glowed with radioactive radiance. This is an important patch note, so it goes first!
    • Fixed an issue where the Inventory couldn’t remember which bags you had open. Thank god.
    • Skill Spheres now go directly to your shiny-new Skill Spheres screen instead of your inventory. This fixes a ton of issues. Most notably, all of our confusion.
    • Added an option to re-bind the rotate camera action (B button by default) in the Controls Option. This helps if you lost it after rebinding B to something else!
    • Increased scrolling strength times ten. AKA fixed an issue where the fewer inventory bags you had open, the more difficult it was to scroll through them.
    • Fixed an issue where the Long Range sphere for the Huntress was not working properly.
    • Fixed an issue where you couldn’t drag eggs into the incubation slot.
    • Fixed an issue where the Inventory wouldn’t remember if a bag wasn’t open or not. Clearly we need to work on all our memory problems.
    • Resolved an issue where unequipping a pet from the stables with a full pet bag will auto sell the pet for 0g.
    • Made it so you can’t unequip a pet when your pet bag is full. We think. Try it out! (or not if you read that other bug fix…)
    • Fixed an issue where the DPS number for the Flamethrower apprentice towers displayed as 0. Hint: It’s not zero.
    • Fixed an issue where small ledges stopped you from melee attacking. Now go forth and conquer those small ledges! You are the Small Ledge Conqueror! Nobody can stop you now!
    • Fixed an issue where Passives would not roll for a specific hero, which would cause an item to have mixed Passives. Sorry Huntrmonkstresses!
    • Fixed a bug where Movement Speed V was named Movement SPeed IV. We mean, Movement Speed IV.
    • Fixed an issue where the "Greatest Finds" loot would not be displayed on the Summary Screen.
    • Fixed an issue where you could put pets on the Item Enhancement wheel. Not yet, my young padawan.

    • Fixed an issue where the Feed x10 button for own pet food only fed 1 piece at a time.
    • We might have fixed an issue where the Blacksmith and Relic Hunter only stocked 2 items at a time. Maybe.

    • Did a general sound mix pass so you can hear enemies from further away and obnoxiously loud towers are less obnoxious.
    • Fixed an issue on some maps where the Air Spawners were showing up all the time. Now they only show up when the air enemies are coming down that lane.

    • Fixed an issue with Squire impact sounds playing twice.

    • Fixed an issue with Idle Elemental SFX on swords.

    • Fixed an issue where some pets were not playing their idle animations in the Pet Shop.

    • Fixed an issue where some Quest and Challenge notifications were too shy.
    • Taught the Relic Hunter some manners. Also, what Siphon Site D was called.
    • Also taught the Earthshatter Tower that dummies are not your friend. Don’t let their looks deceive you. Awww…..
    • Made the poison spit projectile more projectile-y. And poison-y!
    • Removed homing from the drenching wave pet ability. It will no longer loyally return to you.
    • Fixed other homing abilities so they do return to you.

    • Fixed a ton of issues with parties. Namely, that we weren’t having one. We mean:
      • Fixed an issue where players could be partying, but the server didn’t think they were.
      • Restricted parties to only 4 people. More than 4 is just too much, right?
      • Stopped inviting while matchmaking because that was just all kinds of broke.
      • Automatically declined invites while matchmaking, for double protection too.
      • Fixed more issues with invites. Where’s ours?
      • Removed lots of little unexpected events where parties could break.

    • Made it so you can close out of the Collections and Mailbox screens with the escape button!
    • #YOLOSWAGTASTIC. That was literally in the commit I’m translating right now. I think the rest of it has to do with not letting you unequip items when you have a full Inventory.
    • Fixed an issue where you could drag Shellium Shards to the Incubator.
    • Wait, did we ever say what the most annoying issue was? Hint: It’s when the scrollbar in the Inventory would bounce back for no reason.
    • Fixed incorrect rarity for Imphamy (Creeper) from Mythical to Epic.
    • Fixed an issue where the level up feedback was squished on 4x3 resolutions. How many of you still see in 4x3?

    • Fixed some issues with the visual effects and damage of Stalagmite pet ability.
    • Fixed an issue where you couldn’t see a player’s equipped pet.
    • Fixed an issue where sometimes GetHealthPercent() would divide by zero. We all know nothing good can come from that.
    • Fixed some enemy collision issues. There are still a ton more.
    • Fixed an issue where servers would crash if your pet powered up. It was just too much power.
    • Made loading times a bit better. We think. What do you think?

     

    KNOWN ISSUES

    General

    • Before equipping the Serenity Aura Gambit Skill Sphere, imagine the aura has 6000 life points - the player sees 100% - after equipping it, the player STILL sees 100% (instead of 75%) BUT the life force actually dropped to 4500 - so it functions as intended but it displays as 100%.
    • There is a hitch in the game’s framerate that will occur about every 60 seconds.
    • To avoid a crash, we made an adjustment that may cause some of the Skill Spheres to not match 100% the value it says it does (if you do the math). Lesser of two evils that had to happen. Will be fixed in the hotfix(es).
    • The monk's onslaught weapon is spawning without any primary or secondary stats.
    • At the end of a map, the g up to continue message for some reason slides off screen
    • In group parties on private matches, you have to wait for the summary screen timer to complete. The timer doesn't cut off like it does in the Public Tavern anymore
    • Changed the Pre-Alpha watermark to Alpha. And that’s it. That’s the Alpha & Beyond update. We did it! There’s nothing left to do with the game. It’s done. It’s finished.
