The milestone promised back in 0.02 has arrived — towns are now genuinely shared.

• Bug FixOther players now move in real time in shared towns — no more frozen statues standing where they logged in.
• NewEmote bubbles from other players now pop up above their heads for everyone to see.
• Bug FixChat bubbles now appear even while you’re in a movement-locking pose (such as setting up a shop), so your words aren’t swallowed.

A new mastery skill that turns Blade Song into a storm of steel.

• NewNew level-90 mastery skill (C-tab) that upgrades Blade Song into a 3-way fan of slashes — left, centre and right — roughly tripling the hits, and the finisher fans too.
• AdjustedWithout BladeSymphony learned, Blade Song stays its original single slash. The fan itself is confirmed in-game; the C-skill unlock is being verified.

A new mastery skill that makes the ground slam twice.

• NewNew level-90 mastery skill (C-tab) that makes Earth Smasher slam twice — a second shockwave lands about a second later and is 60% larger in both visual and hit area.
• AdjustedWithout EarthShatter learned, Earth Smasher stays a single slam.

A new mastery passive for dedicated Repel/Reverse Sheep.

• NewNew level-90 mastery passive that grants +1 level to both Repel and Reverse and cuts their cast time by 25%.

The signature summon finally works — and arrives in full force.

• Bug FixThe skill now actually casts — an internal cast bug meant it summoned nothing at all before.
• BuffNow fields a full 12 knights (6 strong + 6 lesser, up from 10) for 60 seconds, and the lesser knights stand closer to you.

Wider reach on the Wolf’s holy strikes.

• BuffCrusader (and its LawBringer upgrade) now has a 20% larger hit area.
• BuffCross Break and Grand Cross reach 10% farther, and 20% farther again once the HolyCross mastery is learned (about 32% total).

Smoother SP support and faster combo flow.

• BuffPsalm of Energy is now an SP-over-time buff — it grants its full SP once per second for 10 seconds instead of a single burst.
• NewAnimation canceling — once a hit lands, you can cancel a skill or attack’s recovery into your next action for faster combos (cooldowns are still enforced).

Casters who stack Intelligence are rewarded all the way to instant casts.

• BuffAt high Intelligence, spell cast time now keeps dropping all the way to instant instead of stopping at the old minimum — cheap spells become castless at moderate INT, bigger spells at very high INT.

Your hotbar keeps up with your mastery skills.

• NewWhen you learn a mastery (C) skill, your quick-slot now shows the upgraded skill’s icon and name (e.g. Blade Song → BladeSymphony, Earth Smasher → EarthShatter) — refreshing live the moment you learn it.

Built and now being verified — not yet confirmed in 0.05.

• PlannedCo-op dungeons: two players can already enter the same Red Panda dungeon together (/joinroom <id>) — group play is in active verification.
• PlannedBoss attack telegraphs: bosses will warn where and when they strike with a ground marker, with the hit resolved on the server.
• PlannedGiant Whale form: an early prototype lets Whale players take a towering FirstWhale form that still wears their own gear.
• PlannedMost of this patch’s skill changes are freshly built and undergoing in-game verification.
