Summary (AI)

Patch 4.9 for Tombwater introduces a stamina system where melee attacks and dashing consume stamina. A new leveling system rewards EXP from enemies, allowing players to earn Skill Points for stat upgrades at campfires, with EXP recoverable from a ghost upon death. Enemy currency drops have been adjusted to prioritize selling trinkets, and several starting weapons for classes have been updated. The patch also adds a new puzzle, updates controls, improves sound effects, fixes various bugs, and balances enemy stats to fit the new systems.
