Version 1.5.4: Minimum XP

To alleviate grinding when raising up green crew, there is now a "Minimum XP" level that increases based on your allies' XP gains! And the Breaker's 'Shatter' ability has been rebuilt to be much clearer and more consistent.

v1.5.41

FEATURES

• Breaker's 'Shatter' tooltip clarified and effects modified

  • Now deals +50% damage per broken equipment & incapacitating status effect (previously, damage varied from +40% to +90% based on which effect was inflicted)

  • Can now be ranked up once to increase damage per effect by +10%

• Stormshot's 'Disrupt Shot' can now be ranked up once to increase range by +1

• New 'Minimum XP' mechanic!

  • All current & future crew automatically gain up to a minimum amount of XP equal to 3% of your past XP gains + 50.

  • Example: if your party gains 10,000 XP as a Scourge, all crew will have at least 350 total Scourge XP.
