In it, you’ll find various bugfixes, improvements and a number of brand new features!

Please be aware of the plot spoilers below.

Note that https://steamcommunity.com/app/2186680/discussions/0/4027970580228219058/ always contains up-to-date information on known issues and the roadmap of upcoming patches.

Patch Notes
New features:
  • The Grim Darkness mode has been added to the game! Play in “ironman” mode with a single save and achieve a feat of strength by finishing the game without dying! Read more.
  • Many formulae in the game were updated to show the final expected numbers instead of complicated mathematical operations;
  • The game has received a brand new in-game mod and DLC manager;
  • A new system of dynamic icons for passive abilities and talents, which updates the old “letters for icons” system, has been added:

System and stability
  • Fixed a number of performance issues with the Encyclopedia;
  • Optimized creating saves to use less memory and be a bit quicker;

Narrative
  • One of Jae's quest endings in Act IV did not work correctly - fixed;
  • Fixed a bug where the Defective Servitors quest would not complete if the player asked Factotum to get rid of the servitors;
  • In Cassia's The Price of Power quest, players who romanced her sometimes managed to convince her in the dialogue to

    but didn't have all the necessary conditions to do that. This choice had no consequences but was very misleading - fixed;
  • Fixed a bug which could cause the Blood Ties quest to pop up on Dargonus and become stuck if Abelard was dropped from the party after picking up the quest (who in their sane mind would drop Abelard out anyway?!);
  • The Mercatum Tabula Officiale quest could incorrectly fail at the beginning of Act III - fixed;

Mechanics
  • Assassin's Haemorrhage ability wasn't counted as damage over time ability;
  • Fixed the case when the

    could have an infinite attack (not that it was THAT thematically wrong, but it certainly wasn’t intended);
  • A bug has been fixed due to which it was impossible to jump over a blockage at Eurac V if the athletics skill was reduced due to injuries;
  • The Bounty Hunter can no longer use offensive Heroic acts during the Savour the Kill bonus turn;
  • The Commissar's For the Emperor! talent now correctly grants Momentum when an ally kills a marked enemy;
  • The Commissar's Show Them Contempt! talent now correctly disappears when the Commissar is no longer adjacent to any enemies;
  • The effect of Ready to Serve talent is now correctly applied on allies when it's used by the character with the talent;
  • The Navy Officer's Scatter! ability now correctly halves the damage;
  • Danse Macabre could only be used once on additional turns given by a Leader - fixed;
  • Supporting Zone talent now correctly works with Rapid Reload Stratagem granted by Arch-Strategist's Visor item;
  • Arch-Militant’s Close-Quarters Training talent used to incorrectly give a penalty to hit chance instead of Ballistic Skill - fixed;
  • Armour penetration bonus from Bounty Hunter's Guidance incorrectly calculated the target's difficulty tier twice - fixed;
  • Easy Target Warrior talent did not work under a number of circumstances - fixed;
  • Exemplar's Revenge bonus damage didn't fall off after character melee attack - fixed;
  • Know No Heresy talent now correctly applies half of its effects to the allies;
  • Pasqal's Machine Spirit Communion ability duration was shorter than intended - fixed;
  • Soldier's Enough Bullets for Everyone talent didn't work with extra turns - fixed;
  • Dogmatic's Absolution feature now correctly works with damage over time abilities;
  • The Master Tactician's Nerves of Steel talent worked even when the Master Tactician was dead or even when the Master Tactician was not in the party at the moment - fixed;
  • The Master Tactician's Nerves of Steel talent could sometimes turn momentum losses into momentum gains (when the losses were small and/or when you had more than one Master Tactician in the party) - fixed, now losses can only be reduced to 0;
  • The Master Tactician's Comfort in Conformity talent could sometimes save characters from death - fixed;
  • Fixed a number of cases where characters could gain negative temporary wounds, which could break the damage system in unexpected ways. One such example is Above the Thundering Guns (gained from Iconoclast - Follower) that granted temporary wounds equal to the character's Resolve (and Resolve could become negative from traumas and injuries);
  • The Navy Officer's Do Not Falter! ability now correctly applies its effect until the end of the combat;
  • Warrior talent Easy Target now works on the creatures whose weapons are natural - like teeth and claws. They are no longer considered "armed with melee weapon" for this talent;

  • Black Signet of the Inquisition now grants less armour and deflection upon use;
  • Blast Pistol and its derivatives now use the correct damage cones when shooting. Their shots are now correctly identified as an AoE ranged attack and no longer provoke attacks of opportunity when used in melee (same as other pistols);
  • Burnt Aquila Pendant now provides correct Fire Damage bonus (was 1 less than intended);
  • Opticon-22 now has a [Retobi-Pattern] Bolter for sale;
  • Scarlet Signet of the Inquisition now grants slightly less armour upon use;

Pathfinder: Wrath
Guess time to restart my Imperium guy playthrough again after dropping it on Chapter 3 before

Seems the game is stable enough now.

Myabe Iconoclast second after 2nd dlc and Heretic last after last DLC. Heretic path seems to be the worst so hopefully they fix it later

It seems you can take a bath with some of your companions. "Pasqal, please get out of the bathtub."

Executioner seems really good so far.

If you got the DLC make sure you visit Astropathic Chapel. what an amazing location with very intense organ soundtrack and Planescapy vibes. Also all the lower deck locations are absolutely superb that is what I wanted to see in Colony Ship but got in RT instead. Depressing, run down decks full of desperate people with no hope. Atmosphere, design and artwork are incredible. Owlcat have outdone themselves this time. Definitely the DLC of the year.

Time to pick it up again I guess. Any other large patch incoming? Was the game actually balanced? I play the pathfinder games on hard. Should I pick unfair here?

You will play it. You will enjoy it. I sense you are already downloading it, I feel the bytes accumulating on your hard disk while I am writing this.

No
I just have to think of the absolute chore of leveling your party to lose all interest

Eh, too busy fucking around in CK3's new DLC to jump back into another arduous (read:long) Owlcat adventure.

Is this fully voiced like the epilogue content?

Yeah, that IS the real deal-breaker.

What cut content tho? Last chapters are as incomplete as ever. This new side stuff is just that, side stuff. This DLC and the upcoming one might add some natural padding to the late game, but that won't fix the issues with the main plot.

Or is this solely about the new archetypes? In which case, big deal. That's a bonus added on top of the new side content.

Nothing major has changed around basic combat mechanics, they only balanced the numbers better for most broken classes.
I am still waiting for them to balance Heroic actions better.
