Hey Hytalers,
Chapter I has been out since Monday, so I'm curious how you're getting on with it.
Quick recap of what changed for combat: you can equip up to two Ability Runestones (Chain Hook, Charged Shot, Enrage, Fireball, Ground Slam, Imbue Poison, Wind Strike) and stack Modifier Runestones on them (Colossal, Enduring, Quickening, Rebound, Rend, Splinter, Thrift, Wither). Modifiers multiply with each other, and casting slows you by 40% for a moment, so not every combo that looks good on paper feels good in a fight.
Some questions to get things going:
Post your setup, even if it's "I just spam Fireball". Screenshots welcome.
If you run a server and want the boring-but-important side of the update, that's over here: Update 7 for server owners.

Some questions to get things going:
- Which two abilities are you running, and with which modifiers?
- Has anyone beaten the Gobliterator yet? And did anyone find the hidden button near the boss chamber for the harder version?
- Scrap Glider or Hookshot — which one actually changed how you move around?
- The sword/mace/axe attacks got about 15% faster and crossbows got toned down a lot. Does melee feel better now, or did they overdo it?
