Features


New Humanobots and Supremachine factions missions available!

Improvements

  • Bonuses and Penalties are now increasing or decreasing the attributes of fighters based on their initial value instead of being multiplicative between each other (initial value is taking in count the base attributes of a robot plus the attributes from equipped items, attributes increase from Mythic items effect and attributes increase from talents).
    For example, a fighter having 500 Power and being affected by Enhanced power, 2 stacks of Conversion and 2 stacks of Growing discharge will now end up with 500 (1 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1) = 725 Power compared to 500 1.25 1.1 1.1 = 756 before.

  • Power gained from personality bonuses has been increased from 5% to 50%. Please note that personality bonuses are only increasing the base attributes of fighters (without equipment, Mythic items effect nor talents).

  • New sound for Game over.

  • New sounds for enemies skills that were still missing some.
