Hi Wanderers,

We have a wealth of new updates to share for Mythic! First we'd like to thank everyone again for playing these past few weeks. It brings us immense joy to see people in-game, doing quests, and competing for the leaderboards every day. =]

We've also shared current leaderboard standings for NA and EU at the bottom of this post! First for the updates:

Features

• We have completely overhauled the instancing and loot system in-game. To summarize:
  
  • If no one has entered a room for 10-15 minutes, the room will now hard reset, meaning it will be procedurally generated again from scratch and will have brand new chest loot.
    
  • Rarity is now a feature of a room instead of being a feature of a chest, as it was previously.
    
  • Rooms have a chance to spawn as COMMON, UNCOMMON, or RARE.
    
  • Looting a room lowers its rarity rating: if it is RARE it is immediately lowered to UNCOMMON, if it is UNCOMMON it can be looted 50 times before being lowered to COMMON. Each chest looted in a room contributes towards this number.
    
  • Certain factors can increase base rarity when receiving an item, including using a Treasure Hunter's Flask and/or a chest being gold (this can stack).
    
  • The rarity of a room will not reset just because the room resets
    
  • The rarity of a room will always upgrade once per day, from COMMON > UNCOMMON or UNCOMMON > RARE. This upgrade will never bring the rarity of the room higher than the original room rarity when it spawned.
    
  
  
• Added brand new death screen. Now, upon death, there will be a pop-up detailing what killed you as well as a relevant gameplay tip.
  

• Added customizable keybinds to the settings menu.
  

• Added a checkpoint in the gauntlet lobby. This will now be visible to people who have killed the first boss.
  
• Added automated crash reporting. Crash logs will now be sent to us automatically instead of us needing to ask for them.
  

Bugfixes

• Fixed a bug where checkpoint icon wouldn't show up in the map
  
• Fixed a visual bug with the lever puzzle
  
• Fixed a bug where champion's mail could permalock players in the boss room
