Surviving an alien planet with six weapons is hard enough without your gear failing you. The most significant fix in this patch targets the Cursed Axolotl. Previously, players were finding that the item's stats would fail to update immediately upon purchase, leading to some confusing math during high-stakes waves. This update ensures your power scaling is reflected the moment you commit your materials.
For the veteran survivors pushing the limits of Brotato, the 'Next elite at wave -1' error in Endless mode has finally been squashed. This bug primarily plagued lower difficulty runs, breaking the progression logic and stalling the challenge. Now, the elite wave calculation should remain consistent no matter how long you manage to keep your potato alive.
The update also addresses specific build synergies that weren't playing nice together:
- Chef & Spice Sauce: Fixed a priority bug where Chef explosions were overriding Spice Sauce effects, effectively nerfing your DPS.
- Builder Turret: Now correctly applies the Sniper Projectiles On Hit effect, making turret-focused builds significantly more viable in the late game.
- Codex Accuracy: Several display issues in the Codex, including progress bars and enemy counters, have been cleaned up for completionists.
While these might seem like small tweaks, the Builder Turret fix alone is a massive buff for players who rely on automated defenses to handle the alien swarms. Keeping the math behind the scenes accurate is what allows for the creative, broken builds we love.
