FromSoftware releases a fresh patch, addressing stability issues and bug fixes specifically targeting weapon performance and expertise mechanics. The reduction in injury from Swift Slash, an ability on Backhand Blade in PvP settings, is noteworthy. The vacuum impact’s injury animation has been streamlined to a more concise duration.
Prior to this adjustment, the Golden Hippopotamus and Commander Gaius experienced an issue where they would not reset their positions when approached from a specific direction. As a precautionary measure, make sure to clear out the boss’s initial area before attempting to defeat them, allowing for a brief respite upon entering the fray. Regrettably, players attempting to conquer the game’s final challenge, Rolling Sparks, should note that a critical issue has been identified and needs attention.
A bug affecting the Lightning and Frenzyflame Fragrance Bottles to inflict double damage under specific conditions has also been introduced. With its intense focus on survivability, Black Knife Tiche’s HP reduction effect is now consistently applied to foes, effectively preventing them from regaining health once the debuff has expired. Check out the comprehensive patch notes for detailed specifics.
