It also adds an option to keep Battle Flag and Marking Flag progress when returning to previous Battlefields while unlocking all shortcuts.
About two weeks after its last major update, Koei Tecmo’s Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty has received a new patch. It buffs several weapon types, but more importantly, when returning to previously completed Battlefields, it adds the option to carry Battle Flag and Marking Flag progress.
This way, players won’t have to unlock all the Flags again, and all the shortcuts will be available. For those who prefer the older method, you can enable or disable this option from the Travel menu. Another neat quality of life feature is diagrams for Learn Wizardry Spells, Set Wizardry Spells and “Five Phases Affinities” that better explain how the elements relate.
As for the weapons, all weapons now deal more Spirit damage with Spirit attacks. However, the added Spirit attack power when the meter is high has been decreased. The Straight Sabre, Curved Sabre and Sword now improved turnaround between regular dash strikes. However, the Sword now also has a shorter startup sequence when striking normally.
After using a Spirit attack to follow a normal attack, the Glaive will also have a shorter startup sequence. Check out some of the patch notes below.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is available for Xbox One, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC.
