Rubyro's Guard and Fire Dungeon updates (Patreon)

Heya!

Big changes today. I worked on the Rubyro's Guard fight, the items for FL3 of Fire Dungeon and Rubyro's room and the new way to get the upgraded Overheated weapons!

----------

Fire Dungeon Hard mode FL 3 updates

Chests have new items consisting of high quality potions (+ life potions) and QC.

The Red Chest you need a key for has all the Overheated weapons + upgraded loot.

In the boss chests you can find one of ALL of the Overheated weapons, upgraded gold, QC and EXP orbs (left chest has rare EXP orbs and right chest has 1 epic EXP orb.)

All the enemies have higher stats.

Only the gold rewards are updated in the chests in Rubyro’s room.

The chances to get Fire Spell books from one of the Rubyro’s chests are doubled, so it’s easier to get them! Drop rates for hard mode are: tier 1 (1/1), tier 2 (1/5), tier 3 (1/10).

There is a new shop in Rubyro’s room where you can exchange Overheated Weapons with the new Fire weapons. It will be a Rubyro's Guard NPC with new sprite art and a shop sprite.

----------

Rubyro's Guard updates

In hard mode, he will drop these EXP orbs

Normal rarity: 3x 100%, 1x 50%, 1x 25%, 3-5 in total.

Uncommon rarity: 1x 100%, 2x 50%, 3x 25%, 1-6 in total.

Rare rarity: 1x 50%, 2x 25%, 0-3 in total.

Rubyro’s Guard now uses modern skill rotation his skills now do Fire Damage, instead of Axe damage. They also no longer do varied damage.

Attack.

Attack.

Triple Attack.

Rotate back to “Attack”.

ACT skill updates.

Same skills.

No longer cost TP.

Instead of Charm/Infatuated state causing “might not attack/won’t attack”, they lower his ATK instead.

Other updates

Updated comments to make him feel more like a guard.

Additional sprite art! New faces and a new “defeat” form if you bring him to Infatuated state with ACT skills and then defeat him.

----------

New Rubyro's guard art!

He will also have a new shop sprite for the NPC in Rubyro's room, but that's not done yet.

Faces.

Battler sprite.

World sprite.

----------

New Weapons

All the new weapons can be bought from with 5000G and 1 Overheated “precursor“ weapon from the new Rubyro's Guard NPC in Rubyro’s Room (only hard mode). For example, Melting Scorcher can be bought with the Overheated Dagger and 5000G!

Don’t worry about the gold too much, You can get lots of gold during your Fire Dungeon run. The last chests also give 5000G if you have gotten the armor pieces already.

You can also buy Rare EXP orbs with Overheated weapons at the same place (costs only the weapon). Good for any leftover weapons you may have.
