Age of War Chapter 4 Hotfix (Public Beta Update 9 April 2024)
Greetings Exiles, Public Beta has been updated today with a release candidate for the planned Chapter 4 Hotfix patch, along with an updated Mod Devkit. The changes can be found here:
General
- Potion of Midnight is now craftable at a new station located next to the Werehyena who teaches you the recipe. This station is the only station where it can be crafted.
- Other Werehyena NPCs at the event camp have been properly disciplined and no longer offer the option to speak to you
- Followers will now properly defend against the Werehyena Ambush
- Bearer Thrall HP increased to original pre-Chapter 4 values
- (Dev note: This change is temporary, as we feel the current HP values of Bearer Thralls is too high. This will be revisited after a new feature in a future update)
