Hey everyone! Here is the latest update regarding what changes will appear in the update next week. As you can see, it's a pretty big one which will carry a LOT of changes to the UI, so be sure to check it out! 

Of particular note is the massive overhaul to the monster stats...every individual enemy type now has a unique set of stats which grow as it gains in level. Some of the changes are pretty significant, but the biggest thing players will note is that enemies which have a strong focus on one or two stats (such as Deathwasps) now have more manageable stats in those areas. HP values have been tweaked, and no longer act as the primary determining factor for Exp Values, meaning that MOST enemies now give more exp. The major exceptions to this rule are "tanky" enemies such as the Millipede or the Dwearian, which no longer give out boss-tier exp for every battle :D Additionally, players will note that these same enemies now have slightly higher attack power, as previously they were gaining ATT at such a low rate that they were unable to harm players at higher levels (50+).

Below is a full list of the (currently) planned changes for the Version 1.2.1 Update.
