[PC] - Vermintide 2 - Patch 1.1.0.1 Content Update

Okri’s Challenges

Have a look at the table next to Lohner - here you’ll find both Daily Quests, and Challenges. These tasks span the whole range of difficulties, and give you rewards in the form of loot chests, skins, hats, and portrait frames.

For most of these challenges, everyone starts fresh. You might be a veteran with hundreds of hours in the game, or you bought the game today - everyone starts from scratch with Okri’s Challenges.

And when you complete these tasks - and successfully finish the current mission, head to the table next to Lohner and claim your reward.

Mods

Vermintide 2 Steam Workshop has officially opened! It can be accessed from the Community Hub in your Steam client.

From here you are able to download mods to be played in the Modded Realm of the game.

Switching between Official Realm and Modded Realm can be done through the launcher.

Modded Realm has a no holds barred stanced towards mods and custom content, but on the other hand will not be able to give new drops, allow challenge/quest completion nor grant experience points.

For more info about the Modded Realm, creating mods yourself and future mods sanctioned for the Official Realm:

Cosmetic Hats, Skins, and Portrait Frames

For many of you, Veteran items and cosmetic items are a big part of why you play the game - it’s the end game for our more seasoned players.

In this update, we’re adding a lot more hats to the Commendation Chests, for all heroes and careers. And we’re increasing the drop rates of all hats and Veteran items in Commendation Chests, and loot chests from Champion and Legend difficulties.

Cosmetic hats drop from Commendation Chests, for the specific hero you have selected. We’ve made changes so that you won’t be receiving duplicate hats. If the currently selected hero already has all available hats, a random new, unique hat will be awarded to you.

There is also a small chance that a Commendation Chest will drop a Veteran item.

We feel like there is a good amount of cosmetic and unique looking items right now - and we’re happy with the current rate at which they drop. So to those of you who have been hoarding chests - you’re free to open them now. We’re not planning on changing the drop rates for these chests further.

Fixes & Tweaks

  • Extracting Illusions no longer cost scrap. Applying Illusions now cost 10 Scrap. As the previous cost of extracting Illusions cost 20 Scrap, each player will be refunded 20 Scrap per Illusion in their inventory, when they log in.
  • Added a new crafting recipe - Convert Dust. You will be able to convert Dust to a lower tier. Ten Blue Dust to ten Green Dust Or ten Orange Dust to ten Blue Dust.
  • The confirmation delay when Crafting and Salvaging, has been drastically reduced.

Bugfixes

  • Several Veteran items lack a distinctive textures with glowing runes. We are working on making sure all Veteran items have cool looking skins. In this version, the Veteran Swiftbows “Edrael’s Will”, and “Spite-Tongue” now have their proper runed textures.
  • Fixed some issues with our current line of cosmetics hats, to make them fit better.
  • Fixed an issue for the Ranger Veteran Bardin’s talent “Last Stand” which caused the buff to be applied whenever a clip was emptied instead of when completely out of ammo.
  • Fixed an issue for the Battle Wizard Sienna’s talent “World Aflame” where the power boost was not applied properly when playing as a client.
  • Fixed an issue for the Witch Hunter Captain Saltzpyre’s talent “Necessary Means” where the power boost was not applied properly when playing as a client, when out of ammo.
  • Fixed an issue for the Zealot Saltzpyre’s talent “Holy Crusade” where the critical strike power boost was not applied properly when playing as a client.
  • Fixed an issue for the Shade Kerillian’s talent “Bloodfletcher” where ammo would not properly be awarded on backstabs.

Still won’t forgive you stupid balance decisions in last weeks, especially regarding to Huntsman Kruber which you made garbage now.

Good luck to all, I guess.

Ok, I suggest we wait 3-5 days to evaluate all the new stuff and let’s hope everything works as intended.

Also many thanks for the surprise on 100+ cosmetics - that’s really huge. But I think @Fatshark_Hedge you need to step up your community communication. Knowing about this a couple of weaks ahead would have made everyone very happy and super hyped up.

And let’s also not forget green dust fix and quest/challenge system which we have yet to assess. :+1: for that.

New sped up crafting started crashing my game almost immediately, if I use it as before (with delay between crafts) then it’s fine - but if I use it consequently and fast one after another the game breaks for me.
P.S. Yeah actually the game just breaks all over the place for me giving the old “Backend Response” “Challenge rejected backend response” stuff. Can’t even load a map anymore lol.

Should there be a blood moon visable or is it just red light? If it is only red light, could you please add a blood moon? Pretty please :smiley:

Dude, this is content update. And the first update that REALLY addresses the core problems. As much as I love 2h Keri and hate this bug, I think it is not the time.

If you wanna complain about something, please stick to content and crafting, like no randomness fix for reds or no compensation for previous green dust problems, no compensation for previous commendation chests or crafting system stil being too random and slow.

But not 2h sword.

Though you gotta admit that no duplicates on hats is a noticeable step forward.

Will there be new achievements along with the update? Had really been looking forward to hunting more of them like the ones added in the trials of the foolhardy update for VT1.

The base ones are rather basic so would love some new ones to bring some life to the achievement hunt.

Loving the update and as a Dwarf it will be an honour to take on Okri’s Challenges.
