What's New in Noblesse Oblige Version - 0.11.1.2?

– Extensive new combat section(s)
– New art
– One new intimate scene for those with the optional patch.
= Balance Changes
– Alexander
~ Changed the effect of the Prince’s Regalia to be -20% MP cost rather than MP regen, as its effect was trivializing his MP management entirely, and the crown is quite good otherwise already.
– Sindarion full rework!
~ Poison damage buffed, and Wracking Poison desc expanded.
~ Most skills now have a stealth and non-stealth version that replace each other in the menu.
~ Stealth versions of most skills now ignore Cover and range reduction (note they still show as resist,” but the damage is increased to offset).
~ Skill functions and damage allocations have changed.
~ Skill TP costs and TP regen changed up to create more of a rotational cycle.
~ Vanish now costs no TP, has High Priority, and grants 100% evasion vs most attacks on the round used. Also clarified that it removes fixates.
~ Stealth now increases attack by 20% and grants partial piercing damage.
~ Perfect Focus now has a 3-round cooldown and automatically activates if off CD when an attack would knock Sindarion out of stealth.
~ Ambush cooldown reduced.
~ Added a new set of skills, Dagger Rush/Deadly Rush.
~ Acidic Shiv is now under Alchemy and has an 8 round cooldown rather than one use per combat.
~ Sunthistle Tea is now Instant and has a two-round warmup.
Developer’s note: Sindarion felt like he was badly underperforming, especially compared to Ligaea who shares a similar role of single-target physical attacker. More to the point, he was pretty boring. So, he’s been completely reworked to be both more competitive, more engaging, and more unique. He now focuses on damage negation and the ability to hit enemies regardless of Cover or range while in Stealth.
– Buffs to Cynthia, including:
~ Farstrike damage increased.
~ Annihilate can no longer miss.
~ Clash now has slight priority.
~ Healing of Tranquil Fury increased.
~ Clash now pierces Cover effects.
– Buffs to Lorena, including:
~ Swift Strike restores an extra 10% MP.
~ Howling Slash restores an additional 20% MP and has a three-round cooldown (was four).
~ Shatter now restores 20% MP
– Adjustments to Somnus
~ Warding Thorns cost increased to 200 MP.
~ Siphon Aether cost reduced to 20 DP.
~ Shadow Lance now applies Touch of Night if the target is not already affected by Touch of Night.
– Some improvements to Sir Leonidas
~ Leonidas now uses unique gear when temporarily in the party.
~ Increased TGR, Hit, and Crit for Sir Leonidas slightly
~ Sir Leonidas now has passive effects when temporarily in the party (based off his effects as a support member).
= UI Improvements
– Increased the height of the game window by 64px. This is the max possible at present.
– Reduced the screen dimness caused by weather by 33%.
= Bugfixes
– Somnus’s Enthrall will now be removed by damage at the appropriate rate.
– Calysia’s Moonblades now generate Sacred Power as intended.
– Calysia’s Purge Sorcery now cannot be evaded or reflected.
– Wildfire now properly deals 200% damage against a single enemy.
– Blazing Arrow now correctly consumes Ariadne’s MP and may cause Burning.
– Various polishing changes throughout the game.
= Known Issues
– The proposal screen does not display Elite Units as a benefit. This will be addressed in a future version, as I ran out of time.
– The Quest Log quest descriptions may clip the border in some cases. This will be addressed in a future version, as I ran out of time.
