Spirit Beast Updates
on 4 July 2022 1:25 AM
from the Official GemStoneIV Discord #spirit-beasts channelSome long weekend Spirit Beast updates:
– Addition of Staggering Blows, a Power secondary that briefly delays your opponent’s turn
– Calculations for all secondaries are now mathematically consistent
– 8 new beasts, including some from the Hinterwilds
– improved BEAST HELP information includes buffs and debuffs
– 14 new Spirit Beast masters in the Talondown
– Chances to win radiant bestial soulstones and Spirit Beast potions, including beast experience potions, from all battles in the Arena
– The “Captive Spirit” cooldown from capturing a new beast now shows in the cooldowns window.
– Spirit Beast Armaments of higher qualities have special qualities a little less commonly, allowing for more high-level stat-only armaments.
– When CLEANed, armaments will always produce an item usable by your current beast.
– Elemental restrictions no longer exist on new armaments, allowing for elemental beasts’ attunements to be changed.
Plus, 12ish hours later:
For those who haven’t given Spirit Beasts a try in a bit, there have been some significant updates this weekend including a new slow mode for beginners, which will make the battles proceed at half speed. Don’t forget the weekly experience bonus from the weekly challenge at the Talondown–most towns have cross-realm access to the arena.
