* The Combat Update is now live.
*General combat changes:

** Defending the direction a creature attacks is key to winning the fight
** Defending any of the adjacent directions will defend against diagonal attacks (for example, defending either top or left to defend against an upper-left attack will be effective)

** Critical hits are now enabled in PvE combat and deal 150% of the original damage

** Added optional screen shaking when being hit in combat (“Enable screen shaking” in Graphics tab of the settings)
** Added a circular indicator on the top of the screen to show the location of attackers hitting you (“Show hit direction indicator” in the UI tab of the settings)
** Added a new blood vignette effect on hits and as a general damage indicator
** An approximate creature difficulty indicator has been added and will appear next to their in-world health bar. This is a relative indicator, compared to your strength, skills and equipment
** Creature status icons will show under their health bar, showing things like focus level, attack stance, defense stance, stun, bleeding (details visible upon mouseover)
** Added sound effects for glance and stun
* Special moves rework:
** All special moves are stronger and more useful
** There is now a single set of special moves, instead of having different set per template kingdom
** Slash moves will give the opponent a CR penalty for a short period
** Crush moves will stun the opponent
** Pierce moves will cause bleeding, which deals more damage than normal, but it is applied over time as a bleed effect
** All weapons have access to moves that drain opponent’s food and stamina
** The client shows details of given special moves as a tooltip

** This includes all clothing that functions as armour, as well as special items like summer hats, demon helms, and kingdom equipment. Equipment that is classified as “armour” in the inventory but does not provide protection will display “cosmetic armour”.

* Change: Improvements have been made to the village plan export feature
** The on-screen, console, and event log messages have been improved for readability and to properly filter the OS username.
