Hey Dungeoneers, Shattered v2.4.0 has been released!
v2.4.0 features a new category of item: trinkets! They are more about tweaking gameplay variables than giving direct power or utility. There are also a bunch of smaller additions and tweaks, most notably to the Duelist and to Alchemy. Be sure to check the changes screen for full details.
Congrats on the new release!
i love the rat skull trinket
Holy god I was excited for this update, the thing is my ipad fsr doesn’t have it, it says in the news section that the update came out but the changes doesn’t have it, idk if it’s bugging or idk, I’ll try updating the game if I can and testing more, I love your game!!
EDIT: Oh ok I updated the game 😅 Thanks for this update!! I’m so excited! 😆
It can take a little bit for updates to propagate to all the right places.
Has the DM-300 boss been buffed? I just fought it in 2.4.0. I remember being able to evade the toxic gas quite easily, but this time it was almost impossible not to get surrounded by it for at least two or three turns. This made the fight considerably more difficult.
There was a change to DM-300 a few updates ago that might affect the very first turn the gas is shot, but otherwise that mechanic is unchanged.
Thanks for the reply. I would have bet it was aiming two or three tiles behind me (in 2.4.0) compared to directly at me (in 2.3.2), but it's likely me doing something different.
Yess! Thank you!
Can we use savefiles from 2.3 with v2.4
There can sometimes be little hiccups with resuming runs from previous updates, but everything should work.
Cool! Will try once the F-Droid version updates.
Looks like there're going to be some actual uses for alchemy aside from pies, honey potions and healing fruits. (Other shiny things are nice, I tried most of them at some point, but they usually don't provide enough advantages to take up an inventory slot just for this unique crafted item. Perhaps they're more useful if you turn some challenges on.)
I take it you're not a challenge runner. At higher numbers of challenges it becomes essentially mandatory to use alchemy to survive. I am finishing up 6-challenge wins with every class (just need to do Huntress) and I use alchemy a TON. If you'll note one of the alchemy changes is that alchemy pots now only spawn on either the 3rd or 4th floor of each area (instead of possibly the 2nd). This is actually a BUFF to alchemy that makes a big difference for challenge players. Why would we want alchemy pots to come later? Because it reduces the amount of backtracking we need to do and backtracking is really expensive with only 1/3 the usual amount of food (On Diet challenge).
