Critical Strike, Knockback, Mini Bosses, and More!


Fellow Cave Crawlers! Here is the info on the new, huge update!

Critical Strike: Added two new stats that can be seen on your stats panel as well as on all weapon's and armor's item info panels: Critical Strike Chance, and Critical Strike Damage (base crit damage: %200). Critical Strike Chance adds up to a percent that represents the chance out of 100 that your attack damage (added damage + weapon damage) will multiply against critical strike damage. When your attack crits, a large, yellow damage pop-up occurs above a mobs head and plays a critical strike sound.

Knockback: Added new stat, knock back! This stat can not be seen on your character panel (yet), and pushes mobs back, in the direction you were facing when you hit them, based on your weapons knockback value. It can be seen when pressing tab, and moving your mouse over an item to see its item info.

Talents: Added many new expertise talents related to knockback, critical strike, and new general talents, as well as changed others. Cave Crawlers now has 45 expertise talents! Talents now will light up green if you are able to put points into them.

Phantoms: Phantoms will now correctly attack you when you look at them.

Temporary Mini Bosses: In preparation for boss rooms and boss mechanics, there is a new mini boss at the end of each floor! You will not be able to drop into the exit hole without killing the mini boss. It's health increases by 20 every difficulty.

Cave Generation: Changed cave generation to be controlled by the host, and information is sent to the client. This allows for the new biome, the Crystal Caverns, to be implemented in the near future, as well as an excited and sought feature: cave length scaling! The caves will now get longer as the difficulty increases, don't get lost!

Bows: Arrows will now stick into walls! Other players will now see arrows going at their correct speed, and not flying, lagging objects!
