## 🛠 Early Access Patch Notes - The Breach Hotfix 6

Hey Folks,

We’re already hot on the road to Co-Op, but we’re still polishing up existing content and dropping hotfixes while we’re at it. We’ve improved performance in the Prologue and the Darak boss, fixed a couple of other instances where the game would appear blurry, buffed perfect gather, and more.

Check out the details below!

**⚔ Performance:**

- Improved performance for the Darak boss and related cinematics
- Improved drops in the Raider Attack cinematic in the Prologue

**⚔ Loot:**

- Addressing players feedback for perfect gathering by moving the distribution towards player skill instead of RNG
  - Perfect gather now guarantees bonus loot
  - Reduced how often trees, ores, and dig spots give large hauls to incentivize perfect gathers

**⚔ Areas:**

- Polished various lighting elements inside player houses
- Updated NPC spawn and patrol paths in Sacrament around arena elevator to match new set dressing

**⚔ Bug Fixes:**

- Fixed game looking blurry or low resolution because DLSS/FSR upscaling settings were not being initialized correctly
- Fixed bug where depth of field would blur foreground if there was an enemy in the foreground that had a status effect buildup
- Fixed quick items selection menu not working unless you had an update to your inventory
- Fixed certain settings not getting updated in game
- Fixed controllers not being detected when connecting them after the game is open
- Fixed UI having double navigation on controller joysticks movement, rendering selecting certain options impossible
- Fixed Darak losing control of his faculties and getting stuck in idle
- Fixed character pop for Darak during transition in the Black Trench boss fight
- Fixed the character attacking if Utility Runes are used in quick succession

Bow stamina cost reduction not working.

Would be great if you could look into that.

Thank you.

Little by little and we’ll get there.

Any word on Inventory and Inventory Management changes? I’m a collector of all things Wicked and would love to ease my playthroughs without going back to the house to sort items every 15minutes. Thanks for the update and like I said before, once Inventory gets an Ovrehaul…I’m Back Baby! Love the game and wanting more.
