Hey Dungeoneers,

In v3.1, which added the Ferret Tuft, I included a little green bow icon that appeared when the tuft was the reason an attack missed its target.

This addition was really popular, and a lot of people have asked if I plan to extend that system, I do and I am! In fact, in v3.2 I’m expanded it to apply to pretty much every effect in the game that alters hit chance!

This means that little icons will appear next to miss text, or next to the sword icon when hitting, that showcase when a specific effect is the reason an attack hit or missed! This should hopefully make the impact of these effects much more visible, as you’ll get direct feedback when they make the difference.

(Image Description: A gif showcasing the new hit and miss icons. The Cleric surprise attacks a rat, then the rat misses the Cleric due to the bless buff, then the Cleric hits the rat again due to the bonus accuracy on their weapon. Each of these interactions use a new icon in the floating status text about the characters.)

    Would be cool to see the Shard Of Oblivion do a void like animation (dark RoW flash) when it takes a part in getting an item drop.

      That’s a decent idea, currently those sources of extra drops don’t have any direct visibility.

      At the same time though, something like +20% item drops does exactly what it sounds like, wheras +20% accuracy does not mean you hit 20% more often usually.
