GamePatchNote Digest
Path of Achra Patch Notes — June 12, 2024
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
I am HONORED to present some new Granga and Swamp content, haha. Focused on adding some more enemies, funky prestige classes, and in general buffing a lot of stuff that seemed weaker (this is in general what I like to do). I've actually felt guilty since everyone in early access got to experience really rapid additions and all the new people haven't gotten to "enjoy" that. However I think the burnout is pretty much gotten over, it was very helpful to take a break

- Bloodrage should now heal allies if they get it
- Poison Familiar's poison damage should now work correctly
- Inuqqa should now correctly protect against damage from freeze when standing still
- made some changes that should help with crashes relating to loading a save from the demo / older version into the new version - it should at least not immediately crash now, and give you a chance to clear your save in-game instead of messing with the files
- Fixed many more less-remarkable ones
*Next update is going to focus on some new kinds of feats, and ways for the game to back up your save in case of steam cloud messing up / other stuff
