• Decoupled Bare-Hand Combat: Unarmed strikes and crafted fist/claw weapons now maintain distinct secondary attack profiles and progression.

Changed

• Bleed Damage Model: Bleeding afflictions now support severity-gated refresh models and dual absolute/relative health caps.
• Combat Balance Defaults: Retuned baseline stagger coefficient, poise linger duration, pierce precision, and shield poise retaliation.

Fixed

• Unspawned Creature Dossiers: Resolved null reference exceptions when inspecting uninstantiated creature prefabs in the bestiary compendium.

[0.2.3] - 2026-10-29

Added

• Creature Cleave System: Introduced multi-target cleave scaling on creatures, granting full cleave capability to bosses and giants.
• Status Effect Persistence: Active Forsaken powers, meads, and potions are now preserved across logout and reconnection.
• Combat Wounded State: Taking direct physical damage temporarily reduces health regeneration to 33% for 8 seconds with custom HUD indicators.
• Project Auga UI Integration: Real-time combat and survival stats injected natively into Auga's Player panel with custom scroll drawer and quick-jump link.
• Creature & Lore Dossiers: Unlocked creature combat dossiers and martial treatises integrated into Hugin's Compendium and Auga's Bestiary.

[0.2.2] - 2026-10-27

Changed

• Calibrated Stagger Durations: Refined stagger recovery windows across creature tiers (Minor foes ~2.0s, Standard mobs ~2.75s, Heavy elites ~4.0s, Bosses full 5.0s, and Player 2.0s baseline).

[0.2.1] - 2026-10-25

Fixed

• Fixed critical game startup error triggered by cooking station drop yield telemetry registration.

[0.2.0] - 2026-10-25

Added

• Universal Poise & Boss Stagger Engine: Continuous poise accumulation, uniform stagger duration, and overhead stagger meters, enabling full stagger stuns against all world bosses and giants.
• Economic Yield Engine: Configurable gathering, mining, woodcutting, cooking, and crafting bonus yield mechanics with detailed logging receipts.
• Physical Triad Calibration: Scaled Slash Bleed to 35% of post-mitigation damage, Melee Pierce Precision to +25%, and decoupled enemy physical attack stagger buildup.

Changed

• Default cleave mode changed from Continuous to Geometric.

[0.1.0] - 2026-10-25

• Universal Poise & Boss Stagger Engine: Continuous poise accumulation, uniform stagger duration, and overhead stagger meters, enabling full stagger stuns against all world bosses and giants.
• Dual-Space 3-Tier Stat Architecture: Standardized mathematical engine evaluating character stats across 90+ tokens using flat bases, additive percentages, and compounding multipliers with asymptotic stamina efficiencies.
• Multi-Slice Status Effect System: Dynamic status effect architecture supporting severity-gated bleed refresh, DPS rate bounds, duration-first absorption shields, and automated stat scaling.
• Economic Yield & Environmental Engine: Configurable gathering, mining, and woodcutting drop scaling, plus detection utilities for felled logs.
