Darkest Dungeon - The Cove Update

by Myrthos, 2015-09-30 12:51:16

For Darkest Dungeon a new update and hotfix has been released. The update adds the Cove dungeon.

The Cove
  • The Cove dungeon region, featuring 7 new monsters, 2 new bosses, new curios, all new environment art, and new music!
  • The Cove features monsters that are in general both fast and bleed resistant, and also have many bleed-causing attacks.
  • The Cove monsters also include some key mechanics previously unused by monsters, such as healing and guarding! These mechanics may begin to work their way into other dungeon regions in the future...beware!
  • You do not need to begin a new campaign to play The Cove. Cove quests will spawn alongside quests from other regions.

In addition to that also enhancements to the game were added, of which a full log can be found here.

You can also watch the below video to see in little over 1 minute what the main additions to the game are:

With all these changes a new hotfix was also introduced fixing the below:

  • Bug fix: Bonuses from "skill instant" situations restored (marked target bonuses, bonuses vs enemy types, etc.)
  • Bug fix: Blight tooltips fixed so they don't show 0 dmg
  • Bug fix: Fix to crashes from dying from DOTs
  • Trinket fixes: Guardian's Shield corrected to a rank requirement, Book of Sanity now rarer than Book of Holiness
  • Bug fix: Heart attack barking restored
  • Bug fix: Bosses corrected to give trinket loot more reliably
  • Bug fix: music timing
  • Misc other bug fixes

Thanks Eye.
