⭐ = Community Suggestion

VISUAL AND AUDIO UPDATES

• Improved loading times and added a new splash screen

• The compendium has a new UI

• ⭐ Fixed icons that were wrongly color-coded (e.g. poison-themed relics showing up in attack speed color)

• Added the last missing item icons

• Updated the overall presentation of the Settings 

• Corrected the hero equipment frames in Victory/Defeat Screen

• Tweaked disabled Event button color

BUG FIXES

• Stall and Rush relics which trigger on an increment (eg: every 2 stall triggers., gain 1 shard) were triggering too often. They now correctly trigger on the intended increments.

• ⭐ Nyx’s Keen-Eyed spec will no longer “steal” kills from Heroes with certain On Kill effects whenever that Hero deals lethal damage without the need for Keen-Eyed’s execute effect.

• ⭐ The Poison Accumulator and Poison Babule relics now have their correct effects.
