    Playing as a Mage and I've got pretty good defense/hps, but the projectiles are getting super fast in some areas and they just rip me to shreds from way offscreen.

    Is it just a tough map or is this life now? (Lvl 23ish)

    I drive trains, Locomotive Engineer.
    Pacific Northwest.

    You're not alone. Lvl 27 with 197hp Slyboots. Those little furballs fck me up bad. I just play until I've exhausted my lives and wait it out till they've refreshed.

    I just keep at it until I'm either over leveled or until I can get a good drop from the mobs. Hopefully when the update drops it'll balance out.

    Monsters are quite well balanced, and patch is not changing the monsters balance. If you die a lot, go back few areas and grind some better items and gold. Look for the items with additional Armor and/or Resistance. Even few points makes big difference.

    On all three classes, I have my armor at a minimum of 60. My Mage is at 70 and is a total beast. Warrior at 79 armor, and Slyboots is the lowest in armor and he's always on timer ;p

    Manbat says the truth, a few points in armor and resistance make a big difference. Like 6 armor and you will see an increase in survivability. On my gear, I always aim for main stat + armor. Then it's just a matter of luck in getting some nice attack rolls as well as Life Leech.

    Below 55 armor, Daemons archers bring you down in 2 shots, and Warriors totally #### you up in melee. Resistance also needs to be high as this is your magical resist, and a lot of missiles thrown at you are magical based. I also believe the AoE damage auras of the air elementals are magical, therefore resisted based on your Resistance rating.

    I have a quick video of my Mage farming Guilds quests, I'll try to upload it but right now it's just not working.

    What level are your guys at? It's tough getting those numbers up but my main character (warrior) is only at 29. Is total armor the number next to JUST the armor or also the shield?

    And...UGH...another unexpected bug roadblock. I'm in the Northern Reptilian Swamps and can't friggin' advance because the generated map threw this rivulet bit into the ONLY path north (trust me, it's water everywhere else on this map and I CANNOT pass here)! If this were my mage, I'd try warping forward, but this is my warrior. Guess I have to quit and go through all of these swamp areas all over again :(

    Attaching image so you Manbat and you guys see what I mean.

    I Thought I fixed that already :/ Thanks for reporting, I'll give it another go.

    I can see that you like Catman's Hat. It was inspired by the real hat my girlfriend has :D

    Really enjoying the game so far, only played 30 minutes with slyboots. Manbat, not sure if it was reported, but just in case it wasn't. When I paid to stop the ad's the game froze and crashed. When I paid for the third skill slot it took a minute, pushed me back to the main screen, but without options or icons, just the background. I'm using 1st gen iPad Air, iOS 8.4

    This sounds serious. I had no such problem on my iPad Air, but I'm on latest iOS.

    Did the purchases worked eventually? Thats most important.

    I've done some IAP related fixes, basing on crash reports I got, but I'm not sure if this were the issues you described. Hope they were.

    Olso, are you maybe on jailbroken device? This area is highly untested.

    All the purchases worked, I haven't noticed in any other bugs since. Not jailbroken, but I did consider after sending that I do have low memory, I've used up almost all of my airs space, so that could have been why....

    How rare are really good items? I got a legendary from the farmer, but can they drop from any mob at low chance? I've been running infinite dungeon just a bit for exp and hopefully items, but still find that what I can buy from the free market to be better. I want to find a staff of snails, looks like it would seriously up my damage. Are there different levels of legendaries too? More versions with better stats for example?

    They can drop from normal mobs indeed, I got two of the farmer weapon, both from normal mobs.

    How the {{%#% can you beat the cat lady? I do 500 damage and the cats swarm me like mad and I can never hit her. I die in like 5 seconds even with all potions active and eating like mad. Been stuck for a few days. Really frustrated and probably will delete if the only answer is grind more. I can stand toe to toe with anything but those dang cats. Arg!!!!

    That was her purpose - to spam cats.

    If you do 500 DPS at this point of game, but got killed instantly, you probably focused your char over damage, and forgot to build defence. Get some items with additional Armor - it will increase your survivability a lot. You don't have to grind more, just choose different items.

    Also, don't come close to her while she stinks, the gas is quite strong for characters with low magic resistance.

    Also, I'm not sure what class are you playing, but it's good to try different sets of skills against bosses. Things that are good for normal mobs, may suck in some specific boss fights.

    Is there any way to reskill my char?

    Oh, and since Mage is able to equip Sword and Shield, does anyone tried a Battle Mage yet? I guess Strength and Magic has to be skilled equally, otherwise he wont do any damage.

    I would guess that hybrid based build characters would totally blow in this game, but that's just me. You're limited to a certain number of skills if you choose non-class specific weapons, and you can't dump your points into your main stat.
    Your main stat gives you an incredible boost to Dps.

    Here are my 3 characters. I can't upload on Toucharcarde, I don't know why.

    As you can see, my mage is a frigging tank, and the Slyboot has a considerably high Sheet Dps. I have difficulties with Duramen, a result of a mix of gear rolls and an overall lack of "OOMPH" in skills. For exemple, why does an Axe of Perun (2h weapon) rolls with an atk value of a 1hander?

    Duraman is a fun class when you use the Corpse skill, as this allows you to freely use potions and Food, not having to worry with mana and Hp regen on gear. But Dps is seriously lacking. Skills like Weapon Throw and Knockback are downright useless imo :p
    And Reflect damage, the worst of the bunch, literally lasts 5 seconds and reflects 20-25 dmg to mobs. Yay.

    My Duraman main weapon is a bow, cant tank big groups of high lvl mobs in melee.

    With the skill to drain hp and stats split 60% speed 40% str, I was able to finish the game prety easily by lvl 30.

    Now that i have great equips, To farm xp I use a 1h weapon with shield, and the AOE skill.

    Currently im lvl47 so...I need the infinity dungeon to test how well this build will work.

    Any ideia when the update is comming manbat? Usually apple takes 4 or 5 days to aprove!

    At lvl 47 you should be able to tank anything on your Duramen, especially since we don't have infinit dungeons yet :0

    Aim for 65+ armor/resistances, and more if you're able to maintain a decent Dps as well.

    I have a "Stat redistribution potion/scroll/shrine" in my lists. Will definitely get in to the game, but not this patch.

    Such builds are bad idea, most of skills are locked to the main class weapon type and skills damage is basing on the main character stat.

    I'll look at Duraman skills for the next release, also the Axe of Perun. Its hard to balance such complicated game singlehanded. Thanks for the suggestions.

    Also, you don't understand how reflect works. :). It's more number-of-hits-based then time-based or amount-of-damage-based. It will reflect first 3 hits/projectiles you are hit with. It works best versus slow, high damage creatures like stone golems, trolls, etc. Probably will also work fine in PVP.

    Actually, it takes about 7 days now: http://appreviewtimes.com , I'm submitting it today, as the work with the code is nearly done.

    Here are full release notes for this patch:

    Improvements:
    -Enlarged inventory size (from 15 slots, to 24).
    -Stackable items bulk buying/selling options added.
    -Characters are no longer locked in single player, while not logged-in to Game Center.
    -Added new leaderboard: Deepest Infinite Dungeon Level Reached.
    -Quest indicators are now yellow for main story line actions, and white for everything else.
    -Inactive passages are now marked grey instead of green.
    -Added "Scholar" NPC, which will say all the hints from loading screen.
    -Building and passage signs are now visible from the distance in towns.
    -Added hints explaining stats in character screen.
    -Added "Low details" mode for older devices, to be able to turn off weather effects, blood, etc. (helps just a little)

    Balance:
    -Some re-balancing done around Power Crystals.
    -Infinite Dungeon shop levels adjusted.
    -Weapons speed/strength/price rebalanced (this will only have effect on new items, existing will remain unchanged).

    Free Market House improvements:
    -Item slots increased to 10.
    -Items are now listed only for 48 hours.
    -Stability improvements - secured major bug which caused lots of crashes.

    Bugfixes:
    -Fixed issue with Infinite dungeon crashing beyond level 8.
    -Fixed responsiveness bug on devices with 3D Touch.
    -Secured crash on Infinite dungeon waypoints unlocking.
    -Fixed "Teleport" bug, where character was suddenly moved to the top of the map.
    -Many Crushfixes - especially for Game Controllers and Free Market House.
    -Some performance optimisations.
    -Fixed Issue where swamp maps generated with blocked way trough them.
    -Another attempt of making game playable on iOS 7.0.
