 With all the updates recently that have been buffing and improving the Talents of your heroes, this update swings the balance back the other way! Powerful enemies and bosses across the game have powered up with Cursing Attacks. Matching the rules of heroes' Cursing Attacks (if hit, if cause damage, then curse, chance to resist based on Willpower) these new powers help the enemy AI put extra pressure on your team in new and dynamic ways. To further stiffen the resistance, a limited number of very powerful creatures have gained a Stunning effect that can, for a short period, reduce your heroes' AP count by either 1 or 2 points. This Stun is a curse like any other curse, so it can be dispelled easily, but you can't regain the lost AP for the first turn. Watch out for the Season Rider, Bone Golems, Wolfken Shaman, and Gloss Spiders -- extra nasty inbound! To help spice up the early game, Ratkin Shamans and Veterans have also gained some new abilities (but no Stun). Especially the Shamans around the Episode 1 Act 1 boss have gained some fun new powers that can help raise the challenge on that combat.  We've also added new effects to Episode 4 gear coming out of loot drops -- some nice bonuses to Crit Dmg % that can help knock home the really big hits. v4.2.47 - 8/9/2016 - +Crit Dmg % added to Episode 4 loot drops - 13 types of powerful bosses now make Cursing Attacks - New enemy curse effect: Stun reduces hero AP - Fixed bugs with Wolfken Shaman, Gloss Spider, Season Rider curses - now Stunning Curses - Bone Golem adds Cursing Attack with Stunning effect - Ratkin Veterans and Ratkin Shamans get new attack and buff talents - Fixed bugs in Crag Peak with Silver Werewolf - Fixed bugs with curse effect display On App StoreHeroes of Steel RPGHeroes of Steel RPG EliteOn Google PlayHeroes of Steel RPGHeroes of Steel RPG EliteOn AmazonHeroes of Steel RPGHeroes of Steel RPG EliteOn your PC, Mac and LinuxSteam |

Awesome! Great to see some new tweaks to make battles a bit more lively.
A quick question on the loot drops. Will it add new loot or update existing items? Mostly, I am about to start the Otherworldly havens which has lots of equipment. If drops are updated, existing equipment should be revised, correct?

phaze - yes, this was additional magical properties on existing items that may have already been dropped in the game. It was not new items.

Hi guys. I wonder, are you going to release next story update. I believe it has been about 6-7 months from the last story update. I have 4 new parties at the end of current Ep4 and it's kinda boring, you know?

I have 4 new parties at the end of current Ep4 and it's kinda boring, you know? We will release the next story update ASAP! We've been working on it for about 8 months, but the bar is set pretty high for the final chapters of Heroes of Steel. You made it all the way to the end 4 times on Ironman? Pretty impressive!!! |

Keep up the good work. Thanks! We're splitting out time between the long list of game enhancements that have been pending and developing some really knock out content for the next story release. It will be a big one, and its nearly done now. |
