Update 0.31

Fishing

Fishing in deeper waters has had some multipliers added on the deeper ends, to make the more interesting denizens of the deep show up more often

• Deep: 2x weight
• Abyssal: 3x weight

Item changes

Our ongoing effort of making each item find its right shelf continues. We have adjusted various of Morrow’s items that were problematic, and we have touched on Potions, Boots, and out of control scaling items.
We have specifically changed Sage’s Oil to not trigger on other oils, to get the so-called “exodia” build under control for events. It’s still good, but not as oppressive. As things find their footing, we hope to not have to make these big rocking the boat balance swings, but let’s see how it goes.
As always your balance feedback makes Backpack Brawl the best game it can be and we value your input.
