New Features
Echo Stones are no longer in chests! They have a unique sprite!
Stages 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9 have been made fully backtrackable. You can now run laps around them and return to paths that were once one-way.
You can now go to both Stage 9 and Stage 10 at any point during the post-game
Stage 7 has a brand new Minecart section. You can use it to backtrack or as an alternate path.
Stage 10-2 now has an abundance of late-game weapons and armor… The catch is they don’t show unless you meet a specific requirement. For example, Kiyota’s Armor can only be seen if you have four or more Sync with her.
Some in-game Items now have reminder text! Items and Armor that had extra space now tell you what certain statues do.
Arch-Demon Gemini and her Faceless counterpart now have a new music track!
Balance Changes
Enemies who use Null Number will use it less, instead of 100% of the time.
F. Nut now properly heals for it’s full value
Doomsday now gives the user Panic for two turns, and its cooldown has been lowered.
Stage 1-1 has more healing items. Primarily to teach players about the status
Shopkeepers now conveniently carry items that help with the corresponding elements. So Mika carries Icy Profen to help deal with the Frozen status in Stage 3, and Quan carries Eye Drops for the Blind, the enemies in Stage 5 like to inflict.
Null Number now reduces Hype by 1. (Down from 3)
Enemy Luck in Stage 1 has been lowered across the board
New Cooldowns for all Upgrade Skills, like Wave Slash and Stop Gap.
Every ten upgrades reduce their respective Cooldown by 1. This should make it appealing to go all-in in a stat.
Genesis has Bonus Base Evasion and Ward. She is the squishiest character and can’t really hang in some late-game fights. This hopefully helps.
Extended Warranty now has a longer cooldown and warm-up in Hard Mode
Headache now properly reduces your MP Regen to 0, THEN inflicts -1 MP. Guarding and Hype MP is cancelled out.
Guard now correctly gives 1MP upon using the skill and an extra 1MP a turn. (It was giving 2MP upon execution.)
