Hi everyone! Patch 1.2 has been live since yesterday, and we wanted to address some issues that might impact the experience as quickly as possible.


- The Tamer’s beasts' names and descriptions were broken in some languages.
- The hostage follower is now properly removed when you finish the quest.
- Players who have already finished the quest will have the follower removed as well.
- Some images were broken in the Encyclopedia.
- The Lecwasi Enclosure Encyclopedia entry had incorrect text.


There may be no upgrades available at the highest levels with the Tamer. This is due to a global bug that we are currently fixing. We need extra time to resolve and test it, but it will be addressed in the next patch!

The "Caravan's Legacy's" update is now live!



The Tamer can now join your caravan from Mka and Kanic settlements!

Specialized in Earth damage, he's very helpful in battle, creating opportunities for your other caravaneers. During exploration, he can summon his beasts to join the caravan as powerful supports with various effects.
Some of his beasts were part of the Kickstarter campaign rewards, and we’re very happy to finally share them with you!

He starts with 2 attacks:
Bull Charge: Deals Earth damage to 1 enemy and moves it backwards. Applies Impaired.
Voracious Ambition: Applies Exalted to self but decreases the caravan’s Hope.

He can then unlock:
Sprint: Deals Earth damage to 1 enemy. If the enemy is slower than him, applies Easy Target.
Taming: Deals Earth damage to 1 enemy. Moves the target forwards and applies Slowed.
Scorpion Sting: Deals Earth damage to 1 enemy and applies Poison.
Swarm of Locusts: Deals Earth damage to 1 enemy and applies Haste to self. If the target is in the backline, applies Blinded.


The Caravan Log now has two new tabs:
The Encyclopedia contains entries with information about Uwando that you can gather while exploring.

The Memories tab contains a list of all the Memories you can obtain in-game, allowing you to track the ones you're missing.


You can now obtain a bunch of new Memories linked to the Encyclopedia. We want to encourage players to discover new entries by granting more Memory Points to spend in the Crystal Library when you do so.


A new quest, “Riddle Duel,” is now available. You can unlock it by wandering between the Northwest Desert and the Terracers Territory.


You’ll see a new "Customization" button in the caravan’s menu, right under your caravaneer's sprite. This feature will allow our Kickstarter backers to use their skins once they’re delivered (which should be very soon).



Equipment now has levels. The higher the level, the bigger the bonuses.
You will find the best equipment in the most difficult regions, allowing you to continuously improve your gear as you discover Uwando.

Your Hope level will impact your units’ Shield in battle. Desperate caravans will have less Shield, while optimistic and hopeful caravans will have more.
This should give more significance to the caravan’s Hope.

• Replaced some “Sand” tiles in the desert with a new biome that costs fewer Supplies. The goal is to smooth the early-game difficulty curve and give players more control.
  
• Burn now deals Fire damage instead of Pure damage.
  
• Rebalanced the early game to account for the Hope impact on Shield.

• Zoom/unzoom was sometimes blocked until the camera was moved.
  
• Some attacks displayed incorrect damage previews (most cases have been fixed).
  
• Some attacks displayed incorrect Shield gain previews.
  
• Fixed various text-related issues.
  
• Fight consumables' FX were not displayed correctly.
  
• Death animations were not playing correctly when the “Explosive” effect was applied.
  
• Attacks and abilities impacting units’ stats were not working correctly.
  
• An edge case was causing item duplication during trade.

• Better display of Blinded, Protected, and Immune effects in combat.
  
• You can now see all potential targets of an enemy’s attack when hovering over it, in addition to the current target.
  
• At the beginning of a fight, Hope and weather modifiers will automatically be displayed.
  
• Recruiting a hero will now trigger a major notification.
  
• Completing a quest will now trigger a major notification.
  
• Completing a quest step will now trigger a minor notification.

We’re working on several updates simultaneously, each with different deadlines:

• We’re still improving performance and fixing remaining issues, which will be addressed in upcoming small patches.
  
• The next major update should add new upgrades, traits, and followers to add variety to your build and improve exploration balancing. The exact content is still to be determined.
  
• We’re working on the main questline, which will significantly extend the game content.
  Two new questlines (with the Nebulous and a new faction, the Azore) will be part of a dedicated patch in a few months. The exact release date is TBD. They will include two new maps, new units and bosses, and a fast-travel option that you can unlock as you explore Uwando.
  The final part, allowing you to reach Umama and attempt to save the world, will be the main feature of the full release patch. We will provide a more detailed roadmap as soon as possible.
