THE IRON OATH UPDATE
THE IRON OATH UPGRADE

Abilities themselves will be getting a balance pass to raise up some of the weaker and underutilized ones, giving you more viable choices when building your characters.

THE IRON OATH UPGRADE

Beyond that, we will be adding the final two tiers of the ability upgrade trees (and reworking a few of them in the process). Along with this, we'll be making improvements to dungeon exploration by adding new event types, and more events in general that will make dungeon crawls more interesting, varied, and rewarding. Looking Ahead Our second major update, A Matter of Time, will be primarily focused on dungeons: adding new Time Modifiers and new Incenses that will give you more options when camping to help counteract the negative effects of time. Higher tier gear will have more slots for enchantments, allowing you to come up with unique combinations that best suit each of your characters. With the update, you will be able to find magical scrolls within dungeons, which can then be applied to your gear to enchant it with various beneficial effects. Enchanting is another feature related to that which we've decided to move up and include in our Spring Update, in an effort to provide more rewarding loot in dungeons (and progression for your characters). But due to popular demand, we moved it up in our timetable.

THE IRON OATH UPDATE

Enchanting Gear Repairing gear was originally something we planned to introduce in our Fall Update (with the additions of Named and Legendary gear). In addition to the above, we'll have new quests and events related to the Scourge, along with new visuals for cities that have been attacked by the dragon. Without spoiling too much, you can choose to lend a hand in various ways to potentially influence the outcome, or ignore the matter completely and leave the city to its fate. With the breaches active, the city will only have a short time before a demonic horde descends upon it - threatening to destroy it completely. In the Fire and Ice update, the dragon will attack a single city during the Scourge, spawning numerous void breaches in the county (as points of interest on the overworld). Improvements to the Scourge The Scourge and the dragon's arrival currently looks cool, but we want it to have more consequences and a larger impact on the world (and the player). The ones currently planned are the Balladeer (healer), Executioner (tank), and Mystic (ranged support).

We'll be adding at least three more classes during Early Access that will expand the roster to 10.

Impaling Ice: Target up to 2 cells within range and damage the occupants, Slowing them for 1 Round, and applying Ice Terrain.

If the cell is occupied, the target is pushed away.

Ice Wall: Summon a destructible wall of ice on any cell that partially blocks line of sight.

Targets are Immune to damage, but the ice can be destroyed.

Frozen Tomb: Target self, ally or enemy and Freeze them for 2 Rounds, cleansing negative conditions.

Frostburst: Target an ice wall or frozen unit and channel for 5 turns, shattering the ice and damaging all adjacent targets.

If the condition is not cleansed, they will become Frozen on their next turn for 2 Rounds. Targets that step on it take damage and are Rooted in place for 1 Round.

Cold Feet: Place an ice trap on a vacant cell.

Arctic Armor: Apply a Damage Shield on an ally for 2 Rounds which also grants Frost Resistance and Immunity to Freeze.

He has a wide range of abilities that allow him to summon ice pillars, freeze enemies, and support his allies. New Class: Icebinder Our 7th class, the Icebinder, is a frost mage that specializes in crowd control. We'll have an exact date for you as we get a little closer, but for now we wanted to share some extra details on what will be included in that update (and some more details beyond that). Here's what you should expect: Hello mercenaries! It's been just over a month since our release! Now that we've gotten the majority of bugfixes and QoL changes out of the way, we're currently working on our first major update called Fire and Ice, which will be available in June. The update will be introducing a new character class, an enchanting system, new in-game events, and more. Roughly a month after The Iron Oath launched into early access, we get this Steam announcement outlining the game's first major content update that should be going live in June.
