Update 2.1.1 Patch Notes

PATCH HIGHLIGHTS

• The Future-Tech Cache is now available!
• The Build Manager is now available! The build manager allows you to save your currently equipped items, active abilities, and passive skills to a build slot, allowing you to quickly swap builds at the click of a button. This may be accessed from a new tab at the top of the Abilities Window (N).
  
• The final lair rituals can now be performed on the public raids platform in Agartha.
• The Manhattan Exclusion Zone has been added to the Activity Finder under the Raids category.  This new 10-player raid comes with a story mode that everyone can enjoy, as well as Elite difficulties for players seeking a greater challenge.  To obtain the mission for the raid, please visit an Activity Board in Agartha first.
• A new timers window has been added to the game, accessible with Shift + L. This window will display the time remaining until daily refreshes, how many keys you currently have and when they will refill, and lockouts for raid content.

 

GENERAL

• Changed the way Item Power is calculated to care more about your core items and much less about your signets and slightly less about your glyphs. Overall Item Power will remain similar, but more power will be gained from upgrading core items than from upgrading attachments.
• Caches will now give distillate bags in addition to weapon bags or vanity items when those items are gained.

• Updated art for the Blade UI to be more in line with the new way that the mechanic works.
• Fixed a case on the Blade UI where shattered blade pieces would continue to wiggle excitedly after healing the player, even though they have no hope of becoming a whole blade any time soon.

 

GAMEPLAY

• Fixed some Proximity Drones in The Carpathian Fangs dealing very high damage when they self-destruct.
• Fixed an issue which caused some enemies in Kaidan to give less XP and Anima Shards than intended.

• Players on “King of the Hill” will no longer disrupt players on “The Final Destination” by hitting the Orochi Clairvoyance Drone and gaining its attention.

• Raizo’s Jacket now updates the team’s mission and disappears when one player takes the jacket during “The Pagans”.
• It is no longer possible to accidentally delete the Atenist Garb and therefore be unable to progress the mission “Black Sun, Red Sand”.

COMBAT

• Primal Instinct’s bonus was decreased from 215%. This bonus is now 100% for damage and healing over time, and 50% for detonating these effects early through Ferocity. This change is due to an issue with how the damage bonus was being calculated. We will be monitoring this change to ensure that Fists is still a competitive weapon.
• Increased the value of the healing received bonus on Recovery weapons to 2.5% / 5% / 7.5% at Mk I – III.
• Updated the description of Redemption to state the Martyrdom requirement to activate the ability. The ability itself is unchanged.
• Updated the tooltip of Eldritch Scourge to state that you need to have at least 1 Corruption or Martyrdom in order to gain the corruption or Martyrdom from this ability.
• Increased the percentage of missing health restored by Reap to 35%. This healing bypasses the Corruption penalty.
• Increased the percentage of missing health restored by Absolution to 35%. This healing bypasses the Corruption and Martyrdom penalty.
• Anima-Touched weapons will now properly obey healing penalties such as the penalties from high Corruption or Martyrdom.
• Resolved an issue that would cause the Signet of Thirst’s effect to remain after it had been exhausted of its healing.
• Signet of Thirst will now properly obey healing penalties such as the penalties from high Corruption or Martyrdom. Healing lost through healing penalties will not count toward Thirst’s healing cap.
• Signet of Thirst’s effects can no longer crit. They heal proportional to damage, so healing from a critical hit will still include critical power. This removes cases where they could essentially count as double crits.
• Manticore X27 Agitator, Evulsion, Glutton for Punishment, and Enter the Fray will now keep hate once they gain hate to allow tank swaps to happen more easily.
• Fixed an issue with the Hammer ability Pulverize that prevented certain weapons, such as the Flanged Mallet, from triggering their effects properly.
• Fixed an issue that prevented multiple players from benefiting the Elemental passive Glaciate.
• Updated the description of Maxwell’s Demon to reflect the fact that at least 50 heat is required for this passive to function.
