Alpha 0.7.2

One hotfix was applied to this patch on May 27, 2021. Fixes, features, and improvements marked with the 👥 icon are originally suggested, inspired by, or reported by our community in our Forums.

New Stuff

 * The second Mythical Lair is now open, and its Mythical Temtem ready to be faced.
 * The entrance to the lair is locked behind the new “Through a Gate, Darkly” sidequest, which can be started near the Sacred Lake.
 * A new area to explore has been added to Cipanku. This area is also related to the new quest and lair.
 * A new optional route has been added in Tucma Subsurface, accessible from Quetzal: discover the Gardens of Aztlan.
 * This route has been designed with the help of one of our Breeder backers from Kickstarter, Soma.
 * 👥We’ve revisited the Koish Fishing activity in order to reduce its randomness and overall length of the activity.
 * After finding the 4/5 weekly Koish, players will now receive a new item called Koish Lure. This item automatically locks 2 out of 5 Koish qualities, specifically fins and whiskers, of all the following Koish the player encounters in the Nuru Lodge.
 * The Koish Lure will last until the 5/5 Koish is delivered or until the current week is over.
 * We’ve also added a guaranteed reward system that will ensure the 5/5 Koish appears after 1000 encounters. After getting the Koish Lure, the amount of encounters for the guaranteed reward is reduced to 500.
 * Overall, the length of the activity right now is reduced to a quarter from what it was before these changes.
 * 👥All Loot Pools now have a guaranteed reward system which over time increases the chances of obtaining their rare rewards.
 * Each time a user receives a Loot Pool and doesn’t get the rare reward, the guaranteed reward system will permanently increase the chance for the next occasion.
 * This effectively guarantees those rewards after a certain number of attempts, helping to reduce RNG.
 * We’ve added another new item to the game, the Mini Monolith. This item will let you immediately evolve any Temtem that would evolve with levels, without needing to do any training.
 * 👥Tamers now unlock a new Chat tab after gaining access to the Lairs: LFG, meaning Looking for Group. This chat works globally and can help players find other lair raiders to join them for the chance of defeating the Mythical Temtem.
 * Temtem portraits are now animated in most of the UIs! Because this feature can have an impact on the performance, it will change according to your settings:
 * Screens that show 6 Temtem or less will be animated if you’re playing in Ultra quality.
 * If you’re playing in Medium or Low quality, only the screens that show one Temtem will be animated.
 * There is also a new setting to disable this on the HUD Squad portraits.
 * We’ve added 18 technique animations to existing techniques.
 * You can now pet the dog in Temtem too. Interact with a Momo to see the new lovely animation.

Improvements

 * 👥Pheromones are now improved. Apart from their current effect, the listed Temtem found while using them will have a minimum of 20 SVs guaranteed in each stat.
 * 👥A new setting to disable the white flashes before a battle has been added.
 * 👥We’ve added a Nearby section while inviting users to the Lair Create Party screen. This tab shows every Player in the same shard within the lair entrance.
 * 👥We’ve added a Recent section while interacting with nearby players. It will display the last 5 Tamers you’ve interacted with.
 * 👥The first time a player launches Temtem it will automatically detect the best quality to run on that machine, and adjust its settings to match said quality. This will only happen the first time you launch the game, and you can still adjust your settings as you wish afterward.
 * The first time a player opens the game, and if the game detects it can run on Ultra quality, the UI resolution will automatically be set to 4k if the player is using a screen with resolution higher than 1080p.
 * 👥Players are now anonymized during the battlebox selection phase, so you’ll no longer see who you’re up against in a Ranked match until you reach the Pick&Ban phase.
 * You can now use emotes during a PvP match. Flexing is on a new level.
 * A new setting has been added to remove in-battle emotes for users that don’t want to see these particular interactions.
 * We’ve improved the flow of Control Settings. If you try to select a key that’s already in use, you’ll be notified of the conflict and prompted to resolve it before you can leave the assignment window. This will prevent an occurring issue where a key bind would be left empty.
 * We’ve improved the Back action with the right-click cursor. It will now also work if the cursor is hovering over a button, unless that specific button has a functionality associated with the right-click.
 * Quest Markers on buildings with multiple floors and elevators are now shown on the minimap.
 * 👥Added a volume setting for emotes, both yours and other Tamers’. It’s linked to the SFX volume setting but also works independently so you can leave SFX at full volume but reduce the emotes volume.
 * Added a new music mix revision to Max and the Belsoto leaders.
 * 👥The running animation has been added to the Photo Mode of the Tempedia. Gif-making awaits.

Balance

 * The level cap has increased to 72.
 * 👥We’ve revised the Fishing and Postal Service Loot Pools to reduce the randomness of the low percentage rewards. The Sundress excess is over...unless?
 * We’ve tweaked the values on the Rawiri battle to make it a bit easier.
 * Dojo Rematches have been rebalanced.
 * We’ve properly fixed Dr. Sasaya’s team this time.
 * We’ve added some of the new Techniques to the current Tech. pool.
 * We’ve swapped some Gears here and there.
 * We’ve given a Dojo Leader a new Temtem, but no spoiler.
 * Freetem will now only grant rewards and Pansuns by releasing Temtem with your own OT.
 * Over time we’ve been noticing an increasing side market that still promoted botting behaviors (camping all week capturing Tems and selling them in batches for Freetem purposes) and created scamming occasions too (like all player-generated services).
 * 5% and 10% Radars have been removed from the reward pools of Dojo Rematches until we find them a better home.
 * Players usually perceive these radars as a punishment due to the amount of time needed to complete them, even after the decreased times we did shortly after the introduction of the radars.
 * While we understand and hear that feedback, we still believe that 5% and 10% radars offer an insane amount of value. Even with the Tems spawning at the radar rate, it is much much faster than hunting them without a radar.
 * Considering everything, we don’t want to do any changes to these radars (especially not reducing, even more, the time needed to complete them) so we’re removing them from all loot pools for now.
 * Pheromones will now net you 2000 -> 1000 Pansuns when sold.
