Quick Take

Diminishing returns now apply to room modifiers when four or more of a type are placed, impacting top-end Temples to improve server performance. Juatalotli's Medallion is restricted to Tier III Rooms, and room bonuses for Golem Works and Spymaster have swapped to encourage diverse setups. Minor bug fixes were also implemented, but some descriptions may appear incorrect temporarily.

0.4.0c Hotfix 13


  • Added a Diminishing Returns to the Modifier Values applied by Rooms. This doesn't kick in unless you have four or more of a given room type placed. This change will have a minor impact on average Temple setups, if at all, but have a relatively high impact on top-end Temples. These Temples were causing drastic server performance problems, and in often cases crashing. If you have enough rooms placed to engage the diminishing returns, it will apply to lower tier rooms first, making sure that your higher tier rooms benefit the Temple as much as they can.
  • Juatalotli's Medallion can now only be placed on Tier III Rooms. This will not be indicated on the Medallion's hover text for now and will be updated at a later time.
  • The rooms which bonuses are increased by Golem Works or Spymaster room types have been swapped. This is to promote different varieties of Temple setups. Having the Legion Barracks and Spymaster feed into themselves was resulting in very repetitive Temple layouts, this should improve variety and add additional importance to some other room types for building optimal Temples.
  • Fixed a bug introduced in a post-0.4.0 hotfix that caused Temples to spawn more Magic and Rare Monsters than intended, especially at lower levels. This change has only a minor impact to higher level Temples.


Due to hotfixing these issues, some of them will present incorrectly on your Client until next restarted. Other changes like the description on the Medallion, and descriptions on the Spymaster and Golem Works room types will be incorrect until our next patch. These will function correctly but will appear bugged in some cases, apologies for the inconvenience and confusion this may introduce for this time window.
