The Iron Oath 0.5.141 Patch Notes – April 30, 2022

• The damage from Burns now increases based on the number of stacks applied

• Dismissing characters from the company will now update the UI to accurately reflect the current number of active units
• Dismissing characters from the company will now properly pay them the coin required to do so
• Available contracts in a city will no longer change upon leaving and re-entering the city, or saving and loading
• When an enemy is rooted, they will no longer pass on their turn if they have a viable target to attack
• The Huntress’ Overwatch upgrade that increases its range to 3 is now working as intended
• Fixed a bug where if the Huntress killed an enemy with Overwatch, the next 2 enemies would take their turn at the same time
• If the target of the Guardian’s Judgment ability dies, the channel will be aborted
• The number of stacks for the Guardian’s Radiance passive is now properly displayed on the status icon

• Spectral Weepers will no longer fear their own allies
• The control maps for Wait and Guard are now shown correctly in the Options menu
• You can now open the escape menu in areas you previously could not (during AI turns in combat, and during dialogue events)
• The Charion Behemoth’s death animation is now visible
• Channel length now updates properly in the ability’s tooltip when upgraded (note: the initial channel length of some abilities is still off – this is being investigated)
• Can now enable debug settings by setting the value for DebugEnabled to True in the config file
• Skeletons that are summoned by necromancers will not be able to act until the next round of combat
• The point cost of incenses are now displayed in the company upgrades screen
• The Resuscitate upgrade for Healing Trance now works properly (previously it would only restore bleedout points if the target was knocked down)
• Re-enabled the Dreadknight’s Pull of The Void ability
• The House Skirmisher should now deploy their Spearwall ability a bit more intelligently (The Skirmisher’s AI still needs some fine tuning though)
• Fixed a scripting error that displayed a character’s name as “0” during the introduction of the ‘Direct Action’ quest
• You can now target Sleeping allies with a Basic Attack in order to wake them up
• Certain Noble quests will no longer crash upon accepting them
• When loading a save file, the encumbered icon will no longer display unless you are actually encumbered
• Potentially fixed a crash that could occur when a player character died with certain buffs/debuffs applied to them
• Fixed a potential crash when channeling certain abilities
• The Risen Bonecrusher’s Shield Bash attack will no longer Stun the target if they evade it
• After Waiting with a character, you will no longer be able to Wait a second time in the same round (doing so previously would forfeit their turn)

• Fixed a soft lock that could occur if all party members died except for one who was charmed
• The damage previews for Skewer, Sweeping Spear, and Holy Barrage now work
• The Wet debuff has been altered to do 50% bonus damage, instead of a forced critical (there still is an issue where units that run through wet terrain are not given the debuff)
• When using the Huntress’ Hone and Overwatch abilities, you are now required to target the Huntress in order to use them (no more misclicks!)
• Potentially fixed an issue where characters of the same class could have different base Speed values
• Fixed an issue where a character who was ‘Waiting’ as the previous fight ended would incorrectly start the next fight at the back of the turn order

Additions and Changes

• You can now close the dungeon provisions window by hitting the same key used to open it
• Added a new company upgrade called Draft Horses which increases your available storage space
• Your storage space now defaults to a capacity of 25, with all items contributing to it regardless of their type (previously it was based on whether or not you were encumbered in a single category)
