Shiro Games deployed a new update for its open-world RPG Wartales just recently. Patch v.1.0.32047 fixes numerous issues that were found since the release of the "Pirates of Belerion" DLC.
Resolved Issues
Wartales is an open-world RPG where players lead a group of mercenaries to search for wealth and fame across an expansive medieval universe. The decisions players make have a crucial role that can alter the fate of some of the characters. The game is unforgiving in the sense that it doesn't hold the player's hand throughout the campaign. Death is also permanent, so players have to be careful during combat.
Anyway, Patch v.1.0.32047 has resolved numerous bugs that have plagued the game, most notably those who have a copy of the Pirates of Belerion DLC. So, what got fixed? Well, certain skills, such as Double Strike, Quick Attacks, and Adaptation, have now been fixed.
The issues concerning the ballista have been addressed in this update as well. For one, the ballista now rotates properly when it is being utilized by an AI. Besides that, players will no longer be able to abuse the exploit, where they could perform a base action and use the ballista in the same turn.
Players who do not have the Pirates of Belerion DLC for Wartales are not left out. Patch v.1.0.32047 also made some changes to the base game.
Rouste is a game mode in Wartales with mechanics that are similar to American Football. That said, Rouste titles can now be earned only if the game is played on hard difficulty.
In addition, the issue where weapons are not restored when characters recover from a disarm has now been fixed.

More Issues?
While it is good that some issues that have plagued the Pirates of Belerion DLC have been fixed, it seems that new bugs have popped up that need to be addressed. According to Redditor Joeyfish5, they get disconnected from the game server every time they do battle or engage in a conversation with an NPC. Apparently, this issue happens when playing Wartales on Xbox Game Pass. Hopefully, this gets resolved soon.
Wartales is available on Xbox One, Xbox SeriesX/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
