Voidwrought – Ver. ???

• Release date: TBA
• Patch notes:

We’ve made the following major quality of life changes based on community feedback:

• The Explorer Soul: If equipped, The Explorer will now “ping” when the player enters a room with an undiscovered secret. The Explorer will also start to ping when the player gets close enough to an undiscovered secret, and the frequency will slightly increase once the player moves closer. The ping consists of VFX, SFX, and controller vibration.
• The Shunned Library in the Shrine has been updated with a tracker for the amount of Anamnestic Recollections turned in to Ose the Archaeologist, as well as an indicator for how many are left.
• Whispering Stones are now tracked under Regions in the Compendium.
