Dark and Darker Hotfix 19

Entwickler IRONMACE hat den Hotfix 19 für Dark and Darker veröffentlicht.

Dark and Darker Patch-Notes

New Race

• A new Lizardmen race has been added and can be unlocked for either 4 Blue Stone Shards or 4 Red Stone Shards. The race is available in three different colors Red, Blue, or Green. Lizardmen have a slightly flatter and elongated head requiring the normal head hitbox to angle forward to match the model. Due to their unusual head orientation, Lizardmen cannot wear any head armor and instead receive an innate +15 +20 armor rating from their leathery scales. This is our first foray attempting to balance a race with a different hitbox. The values of the race stats maybe updated for balance sake. Our hope is if this goes according to plan then we can start experimenting with more daring fantasy races like Dwarves.
