The Quinfall: Patch v1.0.0.21

Vawraek Technology, Inc. announced the release of Patch v1.0.0.21 for The Quinfall via their Discord, and later their Steam Page.

You can caravan your way on over to their Steam page for a look at the official patch message, here.

There were some pretty insane changes to shields, dodge (rolls), and other mechanic related features to The Quinfall with Patch v1.0.0.21!

Alongside that, is promise with more work to come! The evolution of the game certainly seems to show the devs (and Company) cares about the player base input.

I’m looking forward to what the end result of some of these changes might be!

Explore well, travel safe, and good luck collecting that water.

Patch v1.0.0.21

Input Lag and Its Impact

In reflex-based mechanics like dodge, input lag plays a critical role.

Input lag refers to the delay between a player’s action (such as pressing the dodge key) and the game registering and displaying that action. This delay can be affected by connection quality, server load, or hardware limitations.

Especially in large-scale battles:

A player may press the key at the correct moment, but the input may be registered late
The dodge may trigger too late or fail to produce the expected result
This can make players feel punished despite making the correct decision

For this reason, we are not only introducing the dodge system, but also closely monitoring these technical factors and will continue improving the system where necessary.
Large-scale battles are at the heart of the MMORPG experience. However, within this chaos, being unable to respond clearly to incoming abilities and heavy crowd control effects can sometimes lead to a frustrating experience for players.

Recent community feedback has shown that this issue has become increasingly noticeable.

While maintaining depth in the combat system through diverse abilities, crowd control mechanics, and intense battle scenarios remains important to us, we also believe that players should not lose their sense of control in the process. Every powerful effect should have a meaningful counter.

With this in mind, we explored several solutions.

First, we introduced a system that would activate after consecutive crowd control effects. Unfortunately, this system did not deliver the results we expected and was removed.

We then added a potion that removes crowd control effects and grants temporary immunity. While effective in certain situations, it proved insufficient in large-scale battles due to the overwhelming number of incoming abilities. We observed that this particularly put melee characters at a disadvantage.

New Mechanic: Dodge

The roll mechanic performed with the ALT key now gains a dodge feature.

With this new system:

Well-timed actions can negate incoming damage and crowd control effects
Players can actively control the flow of combat rather than simply enduring it
Reflexes and timing become key factors in determining the outcome of battles

Our internal testing has shown very promising results. However, we are also aware of several factors that may impact the performance of this system.

Our goal is clear: To preserve the chaotic nature of battles while giving players a true sense of control. A combat system where every action matters, every risk has a response, and every player can make a difference with the right decision at the right time.
