Update 21.04.24

Changes:
- The CG scene for memory orb 1 from the Spire of Courage challenge floor has been added. You can start the scene by interacting with the orb in your inventory. The scene requires only the orb, nothing else.
- The brawl battle system for Brad was changed. It uses the normal battle system now, but you fight only with Brad. The first victory against an opponent gives you a new skill and training points. With the training points you can increase Brad's stats by training with the orc Uruk at the academy. Due to the changes, the brawl battles will now make Brad stronger for normal battles, which makes more sense than a separate battle system.
The changes will also push Brad a bit more into his new intended role of the more evasive tank with debuffs, while Trey is the main DEF tank, and Kayelinth will be the M.DEF and regeneration tank.
If you already had the first three brawl battles with Brad, you can use the cheat book in your bedroom to learn the new skills.
- The elf Zaleria is now available as a brawl opponent for Brad in Orchel. The events will also lead to a CG scene with her and her sister Ashryn.
- After defeating Seiho, Uruk, Aika, and Zaleria in brawl battles, you can challenge the martial artist master Ash and her student in Kagabagui. Winning this fight will change Brad's class from an "untrained" brawler to a martial artist. The class change will increase his base stats.

- Tsubaki's and Trey's base AGI stats were increased, but heavy armor reduces the AGI more than before.
- Tsubaki's base hit% chance was increased.
- A new legendary whetstone can be obtained from the metal chest in the fire raid. Tsubaki can use this whetstone at the fire raid anvil to upgrade her Setsuna to legendary quality. Setsuna+ will allow her to use the skill Bright Whirlwind, which does light element damage to all enemies.
- Ryen's Fire Recovery was bugged. It healed 25% of his current HP instead of his max HP. It's fixed now and should make it more valid as a healing option.
- Ryen's Flameblade and Dark Blade skills now add 20% crit chance additionally to the change of element for his attacks.
- The cost for Mira's Recover Energy skill was reduced from 300 to 100 MP.
- Chiyo's knowledge skill was weakened a bit, the cost increased from 40 to 45 MP, and it can't crit anymore.
- Increased the chance for Memory Orb 3 to appear in caves from 2% to 10%. The chance for the CG scene events to appear was also increased. The chance to receive green chest loot from a cave was removed.
- Fixed a bug where the Frozen Panties of Frozen Queen wouldn't drop when you had Tiena's Panties in your inventory.
- Kalia, the water mage of the raider group, now gives you the option to trade 5xWater Bottle for 1xWater Bucket when you have at least 5 bottles in your inventory.
- It's not possible anymore to plant seeds in the nature raid area when you don't have fertilizer. This'll fix the bug of planting spots to become unavailable when you put a seed in without fertilizer, as it wasn't possible to add the fertilizer later.
- The damage of Chiyo's single target spells was increased. The Ice spell reduces AGI now, but does less damage than the Water spell.

Update 21.04.06

 Version 21.04.06 is now available!
 
 - The memory orb 3 and 5, which you can get from the ice raid, can now be used when you also have the frozen panties. The scenes are shown from a different perspective, with a different writing style, and more story heavy than most other CG scenes. Please let me know what you think of this different approach.
 - The solo scene has a small animated internal penetration image. I'm considering to use this image in multiple scenes, where the CG itself is static, but the picture-in-picture is animated. I'd appreciate feedback to this new feature as well.
 - The nature and ice raid were added to the walkthrough.
 - You can now access the building of the military academy at the start of the game. Inside are several tutorial books, to help new people learn the different systems of the game. I plan to add more tutorials in the future. 

The main part of the update is a big balancing overhaul. A lot of stats for characters and enemies were adjusted, and some skills changed. Feedback is badly needed, so that I can fix and fine tune the balancing changes!
- The HP of all party members was greatly reduced. I think most battles become more interesting this way, but even though I reduced the damage of the raid bosses, it's hard to say if that doesn't make things too difficult now.
- Most enemies have lower HP, but increased AGI.
- Healing spells now include the max HP of the target in the calculation, to make sure the spells are always efficient.
- Skills that damage all enemies were weakened, so that they do less damage against single targets than normal skills or attacks.
- Ryen's "Combo Attack" is now a single target skill.
- Sandra can now steal fertilizer from bosses in the nature dungeon, when the previous battle was won.

Some other main character changes:
- Ryen's stats were greatly increased.
- Mira's M.ATK was significantly increased. Her holy attack spells are stronger now.
- Sandra's ATK was increased
- Vampire's life leech skills are stronger now, but her max HP is lower.
- Tsubaki's ATK and AGI were greatly reduced.
- Chiyo's damage of AoE spells was reduced.

- Most weapons with elements were weakened, to be worse than normal weapons against enemies that are not weak to that element.
- The element strength/weakness system was changed to be clearer (as seen in the screenshot above.)
