This week brings some much needed diversity in boss battles, bringing in 3 new bosses and adding several new boss attacks and debuffs that bosses may use to thwart your progress through the dungeon. I've also added some balance changes to Ingram, who was being held back by his ability's niche use, and a new way to get the ever-elusive artifacts.

• 3 New bosses have been added as possible encounters and the original boss, Fafnir, has been revamped.
  • Fafnir has no minions, but will try to take you down with his deadly poison that does more damage to you each turn.
  • Tidalik is a frog with two frog friends that has a powerful, long charging attack at his disposal.
  • Gashadokuro will pierce your defences with his bite attack and will ward off burns with his debuff immunity.
  • Scylla will hit you multiple times with each attack and if not slain may unleash a powerful attack that applies a random debuff to you.
• Scholar's Spirit Sync has been changed
  • (old) Gives Immunity for 1 turn and don't end the player's turn. Lose 50% current health
  • (new) Gives Immunity for 1 turn and don't end the player's turn.
• Elite enemies now have a chance to drop an artifact on defeat
• Boss skills have been vastly revamped, paving the way to more creative and immersive future bosses, enemies and skills
• Several debuffs have been added for the player: poison, shocked, slow and bleed
• Fixed dodge and parry disabling enemy attack animation
• Fixed a bug where bite attack from boss was using incorrect resilience value. Bite's power has been increased to make up for it
• Cleaned up some unused assets, reducing file size
• Additional score is now gained from defeating a boss

I'm really looking forward to bringing a lot of pollish with next week's patch and I hope that the new bosses will add more diversity and interesting encounters to the game. Until next week :)

HOTFIX: Fixed a problem with artifacts being able to be gained from regular battles after obtaining from elite battle
