A new update is live for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is now available, offering even more changes. It finally nerfs the first boss of the game, Zhang Liang in the Village of Calamity, decreasing his first form’s maximum HP. Camera movement, Liang’s AI and even the type of damage dealt has been “adjusted.” A tutorial is also available to ease players in.
Another change is the drop rates for high-rarity items. Whether defeating bosses in Main Battlefields and Sub Battlefields or schooling invading players, you’ll have an increased chance for a higher rarity item. Treasure chests with equipment will also provide random loot when opened subsequent times. They can also give upgrades and higher rarity gear in New Game Plus.
If that weren’t enough, higher rarity items have a greater chance to drop when defeating enemies with higher Morale Ranks than the player. Check out some of the patch notes below, and full notes here for more details.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC. Read our official review for more details.
