1.5.4: Lower Difficulty & Elemental Reaction Update

Hello, mages!

1.5.4 is now available on the EA public default branch. This update adjusts in-run progression to ease mid- and late-game growth pressure, improves soul companion skill upgrades, and refines elemental reactions.

Progression & Experience

• Doubled base experience from regular enemies to address slow mid- and late-game leveling.
• Kept the opening leveling curve while reducing the growth of later experience requirements, helping skill combinations come together earlier.
• Strengthened experience catch-up when falling behind the target level, and adjusted stage progression targets and experience rewards from certain phase Bosses.

Skills & Soul Companions

• Meteors now prioritize the nearest enemy in view, selecting a target separately for each meteor. With no target available, they strike random nearby ground.
• Soul companions prioritize their character’s starting skill when upgrading.
• Fixed soul companions potentially selecting a corresponding base skill again after obtaining its evolution.

Elemental Reactions

• Increased the damage coefficient of the Fire + Water reaction.
• Extended Water + Wood surface entanglement from 2 to 3 seconds and refined root-state application.
• Refined melting interactions between Ice Barrier and flames, including surface cleanup after melting.
• Meltwater surfaces continuously apply Wet. Slow strength changed from 50% to 15%, with improved persistent visual effects.
• Fixed Lightning + Wood ultimate preview cleanup potentially affecting active combat fields.

Content Access Is Unchanged

EA still offers the first 6 characters and first 8 stages, supporting up to 4 local players. This update affects the EA application only; Demo is unchanged.

Restart the game after the Steam update finishes. If you encounter a problem, please share your operating system, game version and reproduction steps in the community.
