Update #53: Improvements for Controller + Patches



This week, we've got our hands on some Steam controllers and are making strides to adding full Steam controller support. The first step has been to add missing keybindings – you can now bind to Prev Templar (Ctrl) and Prev Talent (Z) and Next Talent (X). These new bindings let a controller setup work much smoother, paging backward and forward through ready Templars, as well as moving through a Templar's Talents without having to bring the mouse / controller anywhere near the Talent bar. It's a great QoL improvement for anyone playing with a controller or even a mouse. We're working toward official controller support, so stay tuned as we keep making improvements.

To help anyone who wants to try out a controller, we've published a controller config called "Trese Bros: October Best". Once we get full support, we'll publish a recommended config.

We've also added an internal setting that remembers the sort setting on your Templar list. We fixed the balance of Wrathful Defense 4-7.

We've made some balance changes to Stacking Buffs for the Paladin. First up, Stacking Buffs were never intended to be affected by Ordnance that increased Buff duration – that bug is now fixed. Second, we've increased the duration of the stackable Buffs – up to 3 and 4 for the higher level ones. We also fixed a bug where no buffs were applied if you killed lots of enemies (4+).
