Hotfix #66 (1.7.4)
16 April, 2025
Hotfix #66 (1.7.4) is currently rolling out across our platforms. In the meantime, you can read the notes below.
General Fixes
- Fixed an issue where players could fail to dodge-slide when using weapons with quick but short dodges.
- Fixed an issue where the UI was showing Ogryn emotes with a New marker, but no new emotes were available.
- Fixed an issue where the 'Precognition' Blessing for Duelling Swords and Combat Blades incorrectly showed a duration of 5s instead of 2s.
- Added additional memory optimizations to reduce the risk of crashing for out of memory on Xbox Series X|S and PS5.
- Fixed a crash that could happen at the end of the Vigil Station Oblivium mission.
Havoc Changes & Fixes
- Fixed an issue where players could join other’s Havoc Assignments while they are still locked in to their own Assignment.
- Fixed an issue where a Havoc mission vote expiring could lead to the initiator being locked in to their Assignment.
- Fixed occasional spurious demotion when cancelling the ongoing Havoc Assignment.
- Fixed end-of-round view displaying a loss after winning a Havoc level 40 Assignment.
- Group Finder request-to-join list will no longer scroll back to top upon getting new requests.
- Increased Horde Strike type “Blockade Sandwich” trigger distance from 20 to 50.
Dev Note: This strike may happen if the Strike Team tries to backtrack too far.
Havoc Campaign - Mission Pool and Mutator Rotation
Every third week during a Havoc Campaign, we are rotating the mission pool and mutator pool. One or two missions and mutators will swap out during this time. Some may have noticed this already happened this week!
Mission Pool
Outgoing
- Clandestium Gloriana
- Dark Communion
Incoming
- Excise Vault Spireside-13
- Consignment Yard HL 17-36
Mutators
Outgoing
- None.
Incoming
- Moebian 21st
Havoc Derank Changes
The Derank changes to Havoc that we shared in our dev blog earlier this month are going live with this hotfix.
- A player of a higher Assignment Rank will not lose a charge upon being a participant in a lower ranked mission that failed.
- Assignment Rank 40 players will not be able to lose a charge through gameplay means at all.
- For those at Assignment Rank 40, they do not stand to gain anything by attempting their assignment again. Therefore, we’ve made it so they can continue to try different builds and challenges to keep it interesting.
We had some questions about how Assignment Rank 40 players may change their Assignment:
- Play it and win;
- Wait for the weekly reset;
- Play with another Assignment Rank 40 player and beat it;
- Manually derank to Assignment Rank 39, beat it (within 3 charges), get a new assignment.
Mortis Trials Fixes & Tweaks
- Fixed an issue where players would not get their Indulgences pool initialized, which would make it impossible for them to get Indulgence buff choices after the waves 3, 6 and 9.
Dev Note: This happened to players that were part of the starting Strike Team but spawned later than the rest due to slow loading.
- Fixed an issue where the server region option was not taken into account when matchmaking for Mortis Trials.
Cosmetic Fixes
- Fixed an issue where gaps would appear between the torso and arms while wearing the Psyker “Blind Witch’s Leash Raiment” upperbody cosmetic.
- Fixed an issue with floating ornaments on the “ ”Plan A” Vostroyan Rippergun “ weapon skin.
- Fixed the ability for blood effects to tint the entire body of the “ ”Last Stand” Vostroyan Lasgun “ weapon skin red when using the bayonet attack.
Havoc Known Issue - Visual Only
After losing a mission, rejects with a higher Havoc rank helping out rejects with a lower Havoc rank may encounter an animation showing them losing a charge, even though they didn’t. This is purely a visual (animated?) issue.
(E.g. player A is rank 30 with 1 charge left and tries to help player B with their rank 10 assignment. After losing, player A gets an animation showing them go from 2 charges to 1. In reality they had 1 charge before the mission, and will still have 1 charge when they get back to the Havoc menu.)

Hotfix #65 (1.7.3)
8 April, 2025
Hotfix #65 is currently rolling its way out across our platforms. While that’s happening, here are the notes!
General Fixes

- Fixed a crash that could happen when a player joined an ongoing session caused by the 'Bruiser' Ogryn talent.
- Fixed a crash which could occur while suspending the game during active gameplay.
- Fixed a crash which could happen during the Dark Communion mission end event.

Dev Note: This was a missed patch note from Hotfix #64
- Fixed an issue where Encroaching Garden would affect the progression bar of the Heinous Rituals.

General Fixes
- Fixed instances of small amounts of analogue stick movement taking control over mouse and keyboard.
- Fixed implementation of dead zone threshold on the right gamepad stick.
Dev Note (added 2 April): To get the exact same behaviour as pre-Nightmares & Visions patch, playres can set the dead zone threshold to 0.24. This will mirror the dead zone with how it felt at 0 before.

- Fixed a bug where Assail Shards were not visible when spectating another player.
- Fixed an issue where aimed Assail shards lost their target after throwing them.

- Fixed issue where the equipped weapon was not the first one being selected when opening the weapon selection in the inventory or crafting.
- Fixed Surety of Arms talent giving peril when reloading above the threshold.

- The UI for the Mortis trials now behaves as expected if a player joins mid-session.

- Awarded Trinkets now display as expected in the notification panels.

Hotfix #63 (1.7.1)
27 March, 2025
Hotfix #63 is currently rolling out across our platforms and it’ll be available soon.
General Fixes
- [Known Issue] Fixed a bug that was causing the client to crash when they reached max capacity of stacks given by the Psyker's Mettle Talent.
- Fixed a bug where the Psyker's Mettle Talent was being activated by critical attacks that did not hit any enemies.
- Fixed a rare crash that might occur when using the Ogryn Loyal Protector talent.
Mortis Trial Fixes
- Fixed a bug that caused certain enemy types to not be included in waves 10+ in the Theatre of Castigation.
