Summary (AI)

Underboard patch 1.1.8 reduces the maximum health of phase 2 and phase 3 enemies while adding a new "Convergence" skill for phase 2 foes that redistributes health to allies upon death. Players start with one Command by default, and the tutorial now introduces this feature, with adjustments made to the Queen and King passive spells to grant fewer Commands. To improve player strategy, the game highlights the enemy that dealt the most damage after a loss and adds color coding to the combat summary tooltip. Balance changes address feedback on the last boss fight, making phase 2 enemies easier to kill early and enhancing the utility of the Ghost debuff. The patch also previews ongoing work on an endgame expansion set to release within a few months.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

Phase 2 enemies now have 30% less Maximum Health.
Phase 3 enemies now have 10% less Maximum Health.
The Queen passive spell now grants 1 Command (from 2).
The King passive spell now grants 2 Commands (from 4).
In general, we want player positioning to be the main way for players to control how their characters move and target enemies. The issue with this is that the current character behaviour rules are only explained once in the tutorial, and even if we add a glossary for players to read those rules on demand, a lot of players won't do it even if they're losing and don't understand why their characters aren't doing what they want them to do.
We think that players having more access to Commands can be a net benefit to the player experience, so we've made the following changes:
We have already started working on our next big update, which will be more of an expansion really. The main thing it will include will be the "endgame" runs, but there's a lot more we're preparing for it.
That's it for this patch, consider leaving a review if you have enjoyed the Rise of the Summoners update, that would help the game a lot. Have fun in the Underboard!
