Changes

• Joining a game late will give you some gold and armor to give you a headstart.
• XP and Score are no longer linked. While this was a cool idea, it pretty much became impossible to balance. This may be looked at again in the future.
• XP now scales with Difficulty. Playing on Hard is actually rewarding now!
• Gave the Main Menu a fresh new coat of paint.
• Sidebar now displays score, alongside K/D when the game ends.
• Adjusted health and damage of most enemies.
• Armor is now sold as an entire set. Gone are the days where armor accounts for 50% of the item shops.
• Armor and a few other items now grant a flat damage reduction as opposed to the vanilla armor calculation.
• Buying certain items reduces the cost of subsequent upgrades. For example, buying Leather Armor for 10 gold will reduce the cost of Iron Armor from 40 gold to 30.
• Adjusted the price of most items.
• Drastically reduced cooldowns of most items.
• Area of Effect and Ranged Attacks will now give gold directly again.
• Area of Effect attacks now deal knockback.
• Consumables can now be dropped and picked up.
• Good Point can now chain to more enemies.
• Plasmic Shield now grants invincibility based on hit count instead of time.
• Large Hammer now deals more damage but has a small cooldown.
• Weak Restorative Draught renamed to Restorative Draught, changing both potency and duration.
• Fruit of Fortitude now gives bonus armor instead of potion effects.
• Sweet Nectar and Fruit of Fortitude can now be consumed instantly.

Bug Fixes

• Players now regenerate health regardless of hunger.
• Player inventory preferences are now remembered on logout.
• Rejoining a previous game will now restore your progress.
• Notched Bow can now shoot target blocks.
• Temporary Removal: Moria
• Temporary Removal: Isolation
• Both Moria and Isolation were in the process of being rebuilt and sadly were not finished in time for this update. These maps will be making a swift return in an upcoming patch, along with new maps and more rebuilds.
