Dark Alliance Update 1.05

This is a page for the patch notes and other details included in Update 1.05 for Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance. Read on to learn more about the added features, bug fixes, and improvements below!

Patch 1.05 Release Date

Patch 1.05 was released on July 20, 2021 (PST). This patch updates the game to V 1.05 for the PS version. This patch has brought the Steam version to V 1.17.85.

Patch Notes: 1.05

These Patch Notes were released on the official Dark Alliance website.

General Patch Notes

  • Fixed infinite loading after a total party wipe during a boss fight.
  • Fixed an issue where players would disconnect after rejoining an existing session.
  • Fixed an issue where quest items could not be collected immediately after being dropped in multiplayer.
  • Improvements to AI responsiveness. Most enemies now react faster at the start of combat and quickly turn to face the players. However, certain enemies are still slow to take actions once they notice players. This is actively being worked on.
  • Stability improvements.
  • Fixed animations and attacks that were out of sync.
  • Moves and selected difficulty can now be viewed during a mission.
  • Large enemies are now harder to stagger, although some can still be staggered in certain situations.
  • Stamina drain on Drizzt’s moves have been reduced.
  • Fixed an issue where players remained stuck outside the magic barriers when a boss fight was triggered.
  • Fixed an issue where Garn’s Mirror Image phantoms could spawn outside the arena.
  • Fixed an issue in Crystalline Dreams Act II where it was possible to fall through the map.
  • Fixed a visual issue in Verbeeg Jamboree Act I where the explosive barrel socket would appear prematurely.
  • Added missing “+” symbol to critical chance sub-stats

Balance Changes

Monsters

  • Stonegrinder: reduced health and damage, increased armor
  • Abomination: reduced armor and damage
  • Hellraider: slightly reduced damage
  • Trolls: reduced regeneration rate
  • Kelvin: greatly increased health
  • General Greags: slightly decreased health

Loot

  • Removed the chance of extra usables dropping from small chests.

Gear Sets and Feats

  • Underdark Camo: reduce chance to apply poisoned.

Progression

  • Rebalanced XP to impact the early game. Some players were progressing from levels 1 to 5+ after just one mission of play. The update smooths out progression to reduce the scenarios where players gain experience in early levels so quickly.

  • Greatly increased monster condition resistance, condition penetration, armor, and elemental resistances
  • Increased monster damage
  • Increased monster health
  • Increased hazard damage

Buffs & Debuffs

  • Greatly reduced effectiveness of weakened, cursed, and powerful Strikes.

Gear

  • Reduced the amount of maximum stamina and stamina cost reduction received from gear.
  • Stamina regeneration can no longer be rolled twice on gear.
