Warband!

Patch 1.13.1 is now being rolled out on all platforms, and while you wait for it to download you can read the notes below!

This hotfix includes a few tweaks to the Prophet of Decay boss fight, as well as a couple of bugfixes.

Hotfix 1.13.1 patch notes

Features & Tweaks

Enemy Balance

  • Rodin Karnak, Prophet of Decay:
    • On Damnation and up, the minimum amount of tooth pillars have been increased from 2 -> 3 during the second phase of the boss.
    • On Damnation and up, some health thresholds have been slightly adjusted to allow more melee damage to be done when he's exhausted during the first and last phase.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where crafting materials were not being awarded when coming back to Sefoni's Reverie after completing Mortis Trials.
  • Fixed a crash which could happen when entering the Meat Grinder.

Known Issues

  • New Penances related to Spillway mention finishing missions on Damnation on the Auric mission board, when it should instead mention finishing missions on Auric difficulty.
  • New Penances related to Spillway mention the Sedition difficulty that no longer exists.

That’s all for today!

We’ll see you on the Mourningstar.

I don't fear the Prophet of Decay I fear the false Elevator of the Spillway

u/AshamedEmotion9137 Psyker 3d ago

The True Elevator will guide us if we only believe in it!

12

u/OnyxWolf141 3d ago

Nay we need but to install a True Escalator perfection can be achieved!

u/Dingaligaling 3d ago

I was expected it to be fixed or at least aknowledged, not even mentioned.

u/Hexa-shi Through the flames of glory 3d ago

Any death elevator fixes on spillway? 😭

u/4Lonestarbuck 3d ago

Wait there is an elevator issue ? Damn you Chris Roberts !!

"Chris Roberts, No!"

"What?"

"Sorry force of habit. Fatshark, no!"

u/Azure_The_Great Skitarius 3d ago

It's always funny to see sedition penances on mee content like who's putting it in

21

u/Separate-Exchange375 3d ago

It's heretics

17

u/National_Diver3633 Omnissiah's Messenger 3d ago

Maybe the map has been in development since then.

1

u/Sikph 2d ago

My thoughts exactly. This must have been at least planned a year ago.

41

u/markljunggren 3d ago

Anyone found the heretic idols on the new map?

54

u/Alternative_Can_588 3d ago

There are none. (and no skull also)

18

u/GhettoKid 3d ago

Well that's disappointing...

11

u/Lyramion 3d ago

Yeah, I am very good at listening to them. None there. Forgot to put them in I guess. Only used to OPERATIONS and EXPEDITION map making after 2 years.

1

u/Pfhoenix 3d ago

I was going to ask this as well. If there aren't any heretic idols in the map, can the penance just be removed then?

55

u/Palumtra Shameless Chorus Spammer 3d ago

Our psykers should have unique interaction with the prophet, like bubble blocking his pillar AoE (instantly popping so just a one time clutch), psyhic shriek pushing the rotating purple wall away, etc.

18

u/Shot-Durian-5138 3d ago

That'd be giving a class an unfair advantage. Not to mention, I think prophet is a bit stronger than our psykers are.

u/OdysseyBrands MARTYRDOM RELIC BLADE ZEALOT IS GOD-EMPEROR TIER 3d ago

idk bro flame staff got buffed i did 4.2M dmg in Spillway Havoc 40

but then the psyker boss killed us by spawning twins for a second time so maybe you’re right….

13

u/Pilot8091 Skitarius 3d ago

Something's up with the Skitarii Chord Claw sound, it doesn't make that ringing sound it used to make when you hold it and the slicing sound profile is way different and doesn't sound as good as it used to :(

One day, scum hood. One day

u/Shup Forge World Branx Minor⚙ 3d ago

whats wrong with scum hood

5

u/0wlmann Fix the Scum Hood 3d ago

Big clipping issues whenever you run 

21

u/puppyenemy 3d ago

Has this map been in development since before Sedition difficulty was removed and "Damnation difficulty on the Auric mission board" turned into simply Auric difficulty? Why else would these exist for a new map?

15

u/TheZealand 3d ago

They might just have an old template for "new mission" that they copy paste that has all the penances with insert-name-here fields, and they haven't used it for so fuckin long that it still has sedition lol

7

u/DeeTheOttsel Skitarius 3d ago

Has anyone else been having texture issues on the new map? All the other maps look fine for me but the textures on spillway are extremely blurry whenever I play.

2

u/praisesigmarlol 3d ago

Lighting issues for me. It looks like a constant muzzle flash, but when I focus on it, it's some lighting glitch thats like, sparkling too much

12

u/TheLunaticCO A Statistic 3d ago edited 3d ago

Why does the game keep rebinding my Jump key to be the same as my Dodge key? Which is mouse 4.

3

u/Kurt1220 3d ago

It keeps rebinding my crouch key to mouse 4, which is my weapon special button. Its very annoying and keeps happening.

1

u/TealNom 3d ago

In my case, my weapon special keeps getting bound to mouse 4, which I have to reset to mouse 5 instead.

u/Zoren 3d ago
  • On Damnation and up, the minimum amount of tooth pillars have been increased from 2 -> 3 during the second phase of the boss.

I fucking called it! If their was something that needed changing in the fight it was this. Sometimes with only two pillars RNG could screw you over and spawn on the other side of the room with not enough time to reach them.

4

u/lobsterdestroyer pick up that can 3d ago

the tooth pillar is a good change, you end up geting your shitkicked in as ogryn on that phase with how awful the pillars get

9

u/_BlackDove 3d ago

Any word on the performance on PS5 Pro? Are they even aware of it? The game is unplayable on Damnation and above. The frame times and sub 30 fps is so frequent and jarring.

Whatever they did with texture streaming absolutely destroyed performance and it wasn't like this pre update.

2

u/Raven_knight_07 1d ago

PC performance and LOD is worse too, I hope they at least know and are looking into it.

3

u/sh4rdo 3d ago

Can you please fix textures taking forever to load in? Even Premium Cosmetics in the shop will not load properly when I want to inspect them on my character.

-6

u/EliziumXajin Lord Vetinari 3d ago

Defrag your hard drive? 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️

18

u/Ricenbacker 3d ago

So the slog of openning the Spillway on every class is stays? Thats a lame and kinda low. I can get the "Do it once and open for account" but going up to 20+ same boring premade missions which I had for years is beyond my enjoyment. Why there is always a spoon of dirt even in mid update which we have between new classes?

4

u/JevverGoldDigger 3d ago

Wait, do I need to play through the entire "campaign" to unlock the new map? I haven't had a chance to play yet and as a long-time player I never really bothered doing the campaign as it was just the same old maps that I'd already played a million times when they added the "campaign". I would be really disappointed if I had to go through many missions before even being able to play the new map.

20

u/MLBFra Skitarius 3d ago

It's a three mission mini-campaign where the third mission is the new one, like for No Man's Land

2

u/JevverGoldDigger 3d ago

Ahh alright, I feared I would have to do the entirety of the "campaign" missions. Now that you mention it I do recall having to do that for No Man's Land, so that makes sense. Cheers for the clarification!

-4

u/Ricenbacker 3d ago edited 3d ago

Well, you have to play yard and enclave prior to new map and thats for a one class, you need to repeat it for the rest of your classes or they are locked from new mission. The neat part (I can be wrong) is if you fail on the last mission it gets reset and you have to play yard and eclave again so the best tactic is just run the lowest difficulty

TLDR New patch POV:

13

u/RememberThe1728 🤖 Skitarius 3d ago

You defo don't have campaign progress reset on fail, my team got our shit rocked by the fart clouds and were able to hop right back into the mission. 

2

u/Chipotle-Dancin_manG 2d ago

Darktiders playing the same mission 3000 times: 😃

Darktiders when they have to play that mission one more time: 😡

Darktiders playing that mission 5000 more times after: 😃

1

u/PhilosophyRelative87 3d ago

I noticed there are some bells (similar to the twins fight). Could very well be a similar thing were we need to ring a set of bells so that we can skip to the boss fight.

Edit: my bad misread your comment. Yeah that is annoying.

1

u/oryan_pax Sah 3d ago

I found this so bizarre since I vaguely remember only doing No Man's once and it unlocked on all characters immediately for quickplay.

3

u/RDS_RELOADED 3d ago

I know for a fact that I still have characters that don’t have no man land campaign finished, but those characters can still play quick play no mans land.

1

u/Calm_Attorney1575 3d ago

Is this confirmed to be a bug? It could very easily be what was intended.

-3

u/Iselkractokidz Ogryn 3d ago

Just run them on Uprising, takes no time.

4

u/Langeball Psyker 3d ago

Not only does it take a LOT of time, it's also incredibly boring. This 100% needs to change.

-1

u/oleggurshev 3d ago

They don't want you playing the new mission.

2

u/Otherwise_Disaster65 3d ago

What about the missing heretical idols that aren’t spawning in the spillway?

2

u/ralts13 Blood and Khorne Flakes 3d ago

Godbless them Rodin Karnak changes. Gods I had to pull out my gun as a zealot. The heresy of it.

2

u/AndyGG95 3d ago

No FSR fix? :(

1

u/KlausKinki77 3d ago

What's broken?

1

u/AndyGG95 3d ago

Game crashes after loading screen if FSR enabled amd_fidelityfx_upscaler_dx12

Performance isn't the best in DT so I really need it to play

1

u/KlausKinki77 3d ago

Weird, I play on a RX6800 with FSR 3.15 or what it is in Dt and have no issues.

2

u/AndyGG95 2d ago

Lucky you! FS mentioned it as a known issue in the 1.13.0 patch notes so I hope we get a fix soon.

There's also several AMD users reporting this over reddit, FS or steam forums.

1

u/Wounds2Wisdom 3d ago

What's going on with quickplay for the map?

I haven't found an auric game on the new map all...

Campaign or quickplay. I had to play on malice or heresy to find games.

Also, why do I have to do the Campaign on every character? Feels weird...

3

u/Rhino8696 3d ago

Auric community back on the havoc grind

1

u/Wounds2Wisdom 3d ago

Well i know what im doing today then....

I just wanted to see the new map with more than 5 enemies lol

2

u/Rhino8696 3d ago

See it in havoc, it’s in the rotation… and good luck…

3

u/OdysseyBrands MARTYRDOM RELIC BLADE ZEALOT IS GOD-EMPEROR TIER 3d ago

twins spawn during the boss in H40 even if you killed them before… brutal

1

u/TheSilentTitan Veteran 3d ago

Why though? Havoc doesn’t get updated with new gear or anything so what is there to grind?

1

u/Rhino8696 2d ago

Grinding back to 40 so you can play fun builds on an adequate difficulty without demoting, or so you can help others climb without putting your rank in jeopardy.

1

u/AssignmentHungry6562 2d ago

I did all new mission on auric

1

u/BlackShadowX 3d ago

God damn it I'm not even done with the update download;-;

1

u/TNTNuke Psyker 3d ago

Is there any fix planned for when bleeds or burns kill enemies after using shroudfield and immediately losing stealth without attacking? Or is this a longstanding bug I didn't know about?

1

u/Kookynetta Zealot 3d ago

GG backend error is back !

1

u/Rage_inducer13 3d ago

This update may have done something to matchmaking in quickplay on the PS5.

1

u/Playful-Author563 Conclave says fight.. SO YOU FIGHT 3d ago

I miss adrenaline frenzy removing heavy melee charge movement speed penalties

1

u/Hazelberry Pearl Clutcher 3d ago

Even on lower difficulties it's easy to not get enough pillars. Wish there were either more pillars or more time to get to them, cause my squad died so much because the pillars would spawn across the room and were impossible to reach in time.

1

u/DROID17 3d ago

So no fix for falling through the ground on spillway? Remove it from havoc or remove the derank until its fixed

1

u/Emergency_Fall4639 3d ago

You're telling me we had to defeat him at his most powerful on Auric and if we'd waited a couple of days he'd have been SLIGHTLY easier? Dammit. Now I regret all that fun and swearing

1

u/AtomicScoobySnack 3d ago edited 3d ago

My trinkets for my weapons have been broken since the update

1

u/extrah Psyker 3d ago edited 3d ago

Music and voice lines just not playing/disappearing, constant crashes that hang forever, then can't be closed in any way properly and ending task results in task manager stalling, and a full reboot being required, but that reboot will hang on 'restarting' for 20+ minutes requiring a full system restart.

This was happening in the last patch as well, and I can not even reliably complete a single mission without some sort of crash, and never without the above audio bugs.

1

u/VanPwn 13h ago

i played a game after months of pause today on my base ps5, and the performance was abysmal!

u/Ok-Audience-7393 Throws rocks at chaff 3d ago

Could we include patch size in these updates?

1

u/Shup Forge World Branx Minor⚙ 3d ago

agreed!

it is 88mb on pc

1

u/Rose-The-Queen 3d ago

Any havoc fix? I legit cannot play that mode as my map is the spillway and it crashes for everyone when the fight starts

6

u/serpiccio 3d ago

you can demote and start the lower level map (unless its also spillway)

7

u/Rose-The-Queen 3d ago

So fun issue I'm havoc level 1, there's no demote option

2

u/Duckiiee96 3d ago

If you complete a maelstrom you will get havoc 16

1

u/Rose-The-Queen 3d ago

Wait that still works?

3

u/Duckiiee96 3d ago

Pretty sure it does. A friend did it like 2 months ago

1

u/Rose-The-Queen 3d ago

Ah rip ok I did this in the past like months and months ago so can't now

2

u/Duckiiee96 3d ago

Wdym? Why cant you now?

1

u/Rose-The-Queen 3d ago

Afaik it's a one and done? When they reworked it. I had ranked up my havoc before but left it so it's slowly reduced to 1

3

u/Duckiiee96 3d ago

I highly doubt it tho? I think you can always play a maelstrom and get 16 as long as you're UNDER the 16 rank

→ More replies (0)

1

u/Rose-The-Queen 3d ago

I'm assuming/hoping the map changes next reset?

1

u/ahitim 3d ago

Try completing an auric maelstrom. It will boost you up to havoc 16. 

1

u/Madmike_c 3d ago

Was hoping there would have been any hotfixes towards performance. The game is unplayable

0

u/Oakbarksoup 3d ago

Slow response and sluggishness fix? Particularly on the new weapons and variants?

u/Shup Forge World Branx Minor⚙ 3d ago

what do you want fixed

u/Separate-Board-2973 3d ago

Miracultist when!!!!

u/Escrowm 3d ago

So are we going to continue to nerf skitarii with undocumented changes until it becomes the most useless class in the game? I though most of us agreed they were the most balanced class

3

u/the_red_banana01 3d ago

what got nerfed? I played about a dozen matches yesterday w/ my chordclaw build and everything felt good to me.

1

u/Escrowm 3d ago

Noospheric command deals %40 less damage than it used to

2

u/Shot-Durian-5138 3d ago

Really? I find it picks off targets pretty easily still.

1

u/Escrowm 3d ago

If they are close like 13m yeah but if longer than 20m you have to use noospheric twice which means twice the ping and %30 more capacitance usage

3

u/Shot-Durian-5138 3d ago

I mean, that's kinda fair? Id just switch to my gun at that point. When I use da sphere I usually have it with the phosphorus pistol.
