I'm gonna look at the update in more detail (and update my reference threads) tomorrow because I am dead tired, but I will say that the Missions idea is pretty cool. Very much looking forward to the Gunner Pharaoh Dog. And props for your ridiculous punctuality NF. Like, this is way ahead of schedule it seems.
Uuuuunfortunately, I've gotten a bit of a problem with this update. Sure, my phone is not the best thing for playing games, but now when I boot up LotB, all FX are gone. Like, Visions and Wicker Man Eddie aren't on fire anymore, Corrupt General's chest is completely black, and Navigator Eddie hits with invisible cannonballs. Also the rewards chest just kind of pops up which is hilarious. And almost all Eddies look even deader than usual because all their eyes (except GRE) are black. It seems to improve performance though!
As funny as this is, this is annoying for PVP because other than their icons, I have no indication of shields being present on characters. And the coinflip does not show up at all.
Also I had no clue Wicker Man Eddie and Holy Smoke were no longer available via souls (is this also true for Soldier?). I will be sure to update my thread on it.
