Fire & Darkness DLC

The Story

The Fire & Darkness DLC follows the story of the game which are events that happen after beating the main campaign. This DLC takes place on the Fire Realm where players who take on the role as remnants will need to fight once again to combat darkness itself in order to stop a cataclysm that can destroy the rest of the realms. The Fire Realm introduces a brand new environment with a gorgeous environment and exquisite graphics

What's New in Fire & Darkness?

In the Fire Realm which is only accessible if players purchase the Fire & Darkness DLC, players are treated with 12 new different missions, 5 new bosses, 4 new story missions, 5 hunting missions, and a single Explore the Realm mission. Apart from that, there is also some end-game content that is exclusive to this DLC such as:

  • New Fire Realm Dreamstones
  • The Fire Realm will also be included in Lightbringer Update and the new Lightbringer Mode
  • Bosses and Enemies that appear in the Fire Realm will also spawn in the Ascended Tower of Trials

 

Valorplate Skins

The brand new Fire & Darkness DLC, as well as the Lightbringer Update, introduces a new feature that allows players to customize the look of their Valorplates which are Valorplate Skins. This new feature comes with 56 new skins across all Valorplates which are free to be unlocked by players and is a part of the Lightbringer update, while there are 30 cosmetic skins that are exclusive to the Fire & Darkness DLC.

 

 

Lightbringer Update

What is the Lightbringer Update?

The Lightbringer Update is a free patch that is available to all players who own the base game, even if they do not have the Fire & Darkness DLC. The Lightbringer Update introduces new changes, mechanics, and features to the game such as the addition of Valorplate Skins.

New Items

The Lightbringer Update introduces 40 new lootable items which branches out to new equipment and builds that players can try, but apart from that, a new type of item is introduced which is called Cursed Items, this further provides a new challenge and greater emphasis on character itemization.

What are Cursed Items?

If you want to amp up the challenge during your runs, then equipping a Cursed Item will make things even difficult yet rewarding for you in the end. Cursed Items are imbued with negative effects and are applied to the player's character once it is equipped. In order to remove the curse, the player must follow and complete the objective or task that is listed on the cursed item and once the criteria has been met, it grants a massive bonus which can turn the tides and give you that unique edge in combat. Once all the curses have been cleansed, the item turns into an "Awakened Item" which is deemed to be the most powerful items you can acquire in the game.

Matchmaking System

Godfall is a game that can be played on your own, but it makes the experience better if you play with your friends or other people. With the Lightbringer Update, a matchmaking system has been added that allows the player to team up with two other players to complete a run through the Ascended Tower of Trails or the new Lightbringer Mode. In addition, a new ping system is also added to enable better communication and coordination when it comes to completing objectives.

Changes in the Ascended Tower of Trials

There are a few changes to the Ascended Tower of Trials in the Lightbringer Update:

  • The chance for Primal Items to drop in the Ascended Tower of Trials has been doubled.
  • A new type of bane has been added to the Ascended Tower of Trials which are called Intense Banes. These have stronger, more difficult effects, but a higher Loot Bonus.
  • The Ascended Tower of Trials will now spawn the more challenging Ascendant & Exalted versions of Realm Bosses as you progress higher in the Tower.

 

Changes to Status Ailments

The Lightbringer Update has revamped the effects of the status ailments of the game, improving and adding more context to how players interact with it.

  • Ignite – The target gains a short duration, high intensity damage-over-time effect.
  • Bleed – Increases the damage taken by the target and applies a damage-over-time effect.
  • Curse – Decreases the damage dealt by the target and applies a damage-over-time effect.
  • Chill – Slows the target’s movement and attack speed and applies a damage-over-time effect.
  • Shock – Increases Breach damage taken by the target and applies a damage-over-time effect.
  • Poison – The target gains a long duration damage-over-time effect with a high total amount of damage

Effects that apply ailments are now guarantee to apply the status ailment when specific attacks are executed such as when you throw your shield, it can inflict certain ailments. Apart from that, ailments can now stack and be applied multiple times. Either applying a different ailment or increasing the same effect.

Strength of Ailments

The effectiveness of how ailments are applied are now relevant depending on the strength of your attack. The higher the damage is, the stronger and higher effectiveness the ailment is applied and stakcs. Apart from that, there are also Ailment Power traits that can boost the capability of applying ailments to the enemies you encounter or even improve the duration of the effect.

Consuming Ailments

There are now some items as well that will allow the player to consume ailments from enemies. Upon consuming an ailment, all stacked ailments are removed from the enemy and any remaining damage from the ailments is dealt to the enemy right away.

 

 

Lightbringer Update Patch Notes

Quality of Life Enhancements

  • Mission Level Scaling – Story and Hunt Missions have been updated to support level scaling based on the selected mission difficulty.
    • Easy Difficulty: Missions stay at the recommended level
    • Normal Difficulty: Missions start at the recommended level and scale to near your level
    • Hard Difficulty: Missions start at the recommended level and always scale to your level
  • Expanded Explore the Realm – Players can now interact with multiple Twilight Springs in Explore the Realm to keep pursuing new objectives.
  • Item Keywords – Get more detailed information about loot effects on the Armory and Equipment screens via keywords. Press the info button to display them.
  • Resistances on the Stat Screen – The Stat Screen has been updated so that capped resistances are highlighted in green.
  • Dreamstone Sorting – Standard Dreamstones are now sorted by level (from high to low). Volatile Dreamstones now sort by level (high to low), then rarity (legendary to rare). Players can also change Volatile Dreamstones to sort by Recent/Rarity/Level/Name.
  • Enemy Levels on Nameplates – Enemy nameplates have been updated to always show enemy levels, even when enemies are more than 10 levels higher than players.
  • Improved Augment Navigation – The augment screen has been updated to keep you on the Augment Constellation screen after setting/updating augments, making augment management much faster.
  • Improved Forge Navigation – The Forge will now remember which item you had selected for upgrading after you leave the upgrade screen.
  • Improved Weakpoint hit detection for Keyboard/Mouse controls – Hitting weak points with keyboard/mouse has been improved.

Balance Changes

  • Overhealth revamped: The rate that Overhealth drains now depends on the amount of Overhealth that you have. Overhealth drains quickly while it is nearly full, and the rate slows down as your Overhealth depletes. Additionally, new traits have been added to the game that slow down the Overhealth drain rate, and these traits have replaced any traits that completely stopped Overhealth drain.
  • Due to the Ailments 2.0 changes, we have modified a number of ailment-related items so that they function properly with the new system. Some of these items had small balance tweaks, while other items had their traits modified to work with the new ailment mechanics.
  • Rampage revamped: Rampage now drains while it is active but you can keep damaging enemies to maintain it longer.

Balanced Items:

We have slightly reduced the strength of three items that were too powerful compared to other items. We feel that after these changes the items will still be effective when used in your builds, but they will be more in-line with other options in the game.

  • Surety (Augment): Weakpoint damage bonus has been reduced.
  • Archon’s Tear (Life Stone): Critical Hit chance bonus has been reduced. Critical Hit damage bonus has been reduced.
  • Mesa’s Banderole (Banner): Critical Hit chance bonus has been reduced. Critical Hit damage bonus has been reduced.
