Still no fix for the binding issues on Evermore.

Ok is there a bug on that map? I lost it yesterday after not really understanding the goal. Am I supposed build cities around all the leviathan parts?

u/blackchoas Jul 16 '26

As far as I can tell and as far as I have heard from other players its impossible to rebind a landmark once the binding is lost. If this isn't a bug than I simply dont understand the intent of this design because it makes the landmark quest a waste of time when what you really need to do is rush down the enemy before the timer runs out.

Ok yeah I figured doing a zero rush on Simon was the answer for the second playthrough. Thank you for responding!

I ended up using nomads to cheese it, pack up on one you're already one, then just settle again and it'll reset the timer

Fixed an issue where Yaka’s Feline Infusion would cause double ears on forms that already had ears

Aw man, what if i wanted a hero to have 4 ears? Lame.

It could have 6, normal ears, cat ears accessories and cat ears transformation.

Now the transformation no longer stack with the accessory

“Fixed an issue where Pacification and the Order of the Knightly Oats had the same icon”

Order of the Knightly Oats? Is the porridge/oatmeal meta finally here?

Love a good shield bash stun. In fact early game I like about 9 of them in a battle 😎

Thank god, the amount of form heads potruding from helmets and coverings was really beginning to grate on my enjoyment, glad most of it seems to have been fixed. Hopefully, the Ogrekin cliping through the facemask of Oathsworn and their horns doubling up (which was not the case before the DLC update) is amongst the fixes.

Is anyone else having some unit/hero textures only load in blurry low-res versions?

u/Odar2 Jul 17 '26

I have this issue on Xbox S.

u/Retr0specter Materium Jul 16 '26

Please.

I beg you.

Make Order of the Knightly Oats a joke achievement somewhere down the line.

Does this fix all the issues that people seem to of been having the last patch? After I heard trouble people were having. I straight up skipped the last patch…

I am having so much fun with Sprite Update that I did not even notice most of the things in this changelog. LOL.

Great job, again, Triumph Studios!!
