Key Updates in Patch 0.4.0

General Gameplay Update

• Boss's Mechanics Rework: Surtr, The First Giant
  Surtr will no longer be a pushover! After being a punching bag for too long, we decided to make him a true boss. Surtr now has 13 new moves, spread across different difficulty levels. As the difficulty goes up, Surtr's moves become even more dangerous. Watch out, because this fire giant is getting serious!

• Miniboss Damage Reduced
  We decided to slightly lower miniboss damage. This is because the new, harder difficulties greatly increase monster damage, and we don't want players to be overwhelmed by our minibosses.

• Contest Chamber Now Gives a Little Bit EXP
  We decided to give contest chambers a small amount of EXP. This is because EXP is very important for players to survive the tough monsters right now, especially with the new, harder difficulty levels added in the update.

• Removed Slow Motion when Using God's Trails or Succeeding Dodge Boss's Skill by Dash
  We tried to make the game more exciting, but the slow-motion effect for God's Trails and successful boss dodges made gameplay feel less smooth. So, we've decided to remove this slow-motion feature.

• New Permanent Stat Added: Thorn (Tier 4)
  Unlocked when all Tier 3 permanent stats reach max level. Prepare for unparalleled defensive power!
