Developer Creative Assembly has released update 3.1 for Total War: Warhammer 3, the final patch before the release of Shadows of Change, the first DLC pack detailed on the recently revealed roadmap.

As usual, the patch contains a tidal wave of technical and balance adjustments. Bretonnia was blessed with a large amount of changes to help their recent campaign woes. The Dawi-Zharr – the newest of all playable factions – have received a lot of balance changes as well to tune them according to community feedback.

Players who can’t get enough of fighting the Chaos Dwarfs can now add them as an endgame crisis to their Immortal Empires campaign by choosing the crisis named “The Will of Hashut”.

All base factions of Total War: Warhammer 3 have received their fourth wave of free Regiments of Renown with this update – here are the units you now have access to:

• Grand Cathay – Bandits of the Silver Road: Peasant Archers with Flaming Attacks and Vanguard Deployment.
• Khorne – Hounds of the Blood Hunt: Flesh Hounds of Khorne with special anti-magic capabilities.
• Kislev – The Watchmen in the Night: Armored Kossars with a sword in each hand as well as the ability to make nearby troops immune to fear.
• Nurgle – The Frolickers Bubonic: Nurglings with Blisterback instead of Cloud of Flies, which enables them to reflect melee damage back on their attacker.
• Slaanesh – The Princes of Perfection: Devoted Marauders of Slaanesh (Spears) with Perfect Vigor and Soporific Musk.
• Tzeentch – The Chromatic Abominations: Blue Horrors of Tzeentch with additional ammo and an ability that lets regenerate their Barrier HP when spells are cast.
• Ogre Kingdoms – Boglars of the Mad Marshes: Gnoblars with Poison Attacks the ability to regenerate models when standing in water.

Here are the full Total War: Warhammer 3 patch notes for update 3.1.

Changes to Bretonnia in Total War: Warhammer 3 update 3.1

Bretonnia received the most substantial changes in this update, so it’s worth highlighting them.

Campaign

• Damsels now benefit from the Troth’s feature (much like the Knightly Vows feature that other characters benefit from).
• The final Vow or Troth in the series grants permanent access to ‘The Blessing of the Lady’ for any character who obtains it.

Note: We had a look at providing notifications for the Vows and Troths system, but due to the way it was built back in the day, it was unachievable in the available time. Never say never, though!

Attribute & Ability Changes

The Blessing of the Lady stat bonuses have changed as follows:

• The Blessing of the Lady now provides +15% Ward save instead of +25% Physical Resistance.

Physical Resistance isn’t what it used to be. When Total War: Warhammer 3 was released, the interaction between Magical Attacks and Physical Resistance changed, meaning that any unit with Magical Attacks could bypass and ignore the Physical Resistance of enemy units.

This left Bretonnia somewhat in the lurch (as all Daemons have Magical Attacks) meaning that The Blessing of the Lady was easy to bypass.

To address this, The Blessing of the Lady now grants Ward Save instead, which cannot be bypassed. This means that all units benefitting from this ability will have a much better time fighting Daemons and any foe wielding a magical weapon.

The Blessing of the Lady can now be equipped to units in custom battle:

• Certain units (mostly Knights and non-Grail Knight characters) can opt to take Blessing of the Lady for 200 gold. This does not affect Grail Knight characters or the Fey Enchantress, who always have the blessing of the Lady equipped.

The interplay between Bretonnian Knights and Peasants is now represented by two new attributes – Knight and Peasant:

• All Knights and Knight Characters have received the new ‘Knight’ attribute, and do not take any leadership penalties if any unit with the Peasant attribute routs nearby.
• All Peasants have received the new ‘Peasant’ attribute, which has no inherent gameplay effects, but is used for ability and attribute targeting purposes.
• Knights Errant have received a new passive ability – ‘Impetuous’.
• When Knights Errant are charging, any friendly unit within 35m (including the Knights Errant) becomes Immune to Psychology for 30 seconds.

Note: Peasant units have had the Expendable attribute removed, as the Knight and Peasant Attributes now cover that gameplay interaction.

All Peasants have received a new passive ability, ‘The Peasants Duty’:

• Peasants, Men-At-Arms, Battle Pilgrims, Squires, Bowmen, Yeomen and Trebuchets now gain +8 Leadership if a friendly unit with the Knight attribute is within 55m (the awe of standing near their glorious lieges is all they need to embolden their resolve).
• Peasant Infantry overall have had their leadership reduced slightly to account for this change.

Total War: Warhammer 3 update 3.1 patch notes

Here are the rest of the patch notes for this update.

Stability & Performance

• Fixed a rare crash related to sounds on VFX when exiting a Battle or Campaign.
• Fixed instances where a softlock could happen when more than one cutscene is triggered simultaneously.
• Fixed an issue where people were unable to access DLC when playing offline on the Epic Games Store and the Microsoft Store.
• Fixed a softlock that could occur during Drycha’s Coeddil Unchained quest battle.
• Fixed an issue where the The King & The Warlord DLC could not be accessed when the game is running from the Xbox App.
• Fixed an issue where events wouldn’t always pop when multiple events were sent at once.
• Fixed a possible crash that could occur when occupied settlements had buildings that grant pooled resources.

General Updates, Rules & Systems

We have improved the user experience and performance of the Load Game panel for users who have a large number of save games:

• We now only load the first 25 save games, dramatically improving the time it takes to open the Load Game panel.
• A new button will load the rest of your save games.
• Added a new delete button that allows you to delete currently loaded save games via Campaign (this also works for shift selected campaigns).

AI Rules & Logic

We’ve made further improvements to AI artillery units in walled settlement battles to prevent them from wasting ammo on unnecessary gate building targets:

• They will now take extra care when assaulting a wall by no longer attempting to make breaches where there’s no need for one, such as when a gate is already being targeted by a friendly unit, or if there is already a nearby available entry point.
• They will also no longer target gates when inside of a settlement, nor will they target gates where the angle of fire is too tricky, making them prioritise shots with chances of greater accuracy.

In addition, we’ve made improvements to AI unit groups instructed to guard vulnerable units when attacking settlements:

• Units will not remain idle in place while taking fire from fort towers.
• Units will opt out of guarding other units when they are idle too long, instead pursuing other tactics, such as assaulting gates.

Made additional improvements to distance checks between breach points in settlement walls to account for any hard collisions between points (this was previously disrupted ongoing gate assaults).

We’ve also rolled back changes made to improve the attacking AI’s ability to acquire capture points in settlement battles, as it was adversely affecting their defensive behaviour. Instead, we’ve implemented a new solution to improve the attacking AI’s ability to focus on unowned capture points where said attacking AI has units nearby.

Furthermore, we’ve fixed an issue where defending AI units in settlement battles would continuously Sally Out to attack targets while units with the Stalk ability were close by. This locked AI units into a cycle of Sallying Out and retreating back to the settlement. Now, once a hidden unit with the Stalk ability is discovered near a target, the AI will refrain from continuing to Sally Out and shall instead engage the target.

Tooltip Changes & Updates

With the introduction of our new, more detailed tooltip system, it has become much easier to spot inconsistencies and oversights regarding skill and effect functions. Let’s take a look at what’s been fixed this time around (thanks to Reddit’s mister-00z for your detailed list!):

• Sneaky Stabberz now correctly includes Snotling Pump Wagons units.
• All Waaagh! units are now visible in the skill tree (they were previously gaining benefit, but displaying incorrectly).
• Silver Torrent skill now correctly includes Lion Chariots of Chrace.
• Heart of the Flame now correctly includes Omen of Asuryan (Arcane Phoenix).
• Swift Rider now correctly includes Feral Cold Ones.
• All Blessed Spawning units are now visible in the skill tree (they were previously gaining benefit, but displaying incorrectly).
• Removed the duplicate unit cards of some Lizardmen units from skill trees.
• All Legions of Legends units are now visible in skill tree (they were previously gaining benefit, but displaying incorrectly).
• Added Carrion units to Elite Cavalrymen skill for Tomb Kings.
• Armour of Delirium now correctly displays Chosen of Tzeentch units.
• Added Chosen of Tzeentch units to Myriad Servants skill for Tzeentch.
• Added Marauder Horsemen of Tzeentch to Horrific Advancements skill for Tzeentch.
• Added Marauder Horsemen of Tzeentch to Riders of Change skill for Tzeentch.
• Wyrd Spawn (Chaos Spawn) now added to Tzeentch and Daemon Prince skills that affect Chaos Spawn of Tzeentch units.
• The Severed Claw (Aspiring Champions) now added to Tzeentch and Daemon Prince skills that affect Chosen of Tzeentch units.
• All Ikit’s Workshop units are now visible in skill trees when playing as Clan Skryre (they were previously gaining benefit, but not displayed correctly).
• Removed Warp Grinder from the Blastmaster skill as the ranged effects were not relevant for the unit.
• Removed Death Runners from the Infiltrator skill as the effects were intended to target the missile infantry.
• All Vampire Coast Regiments of Renown units are now visible in the skill tree (they were previously gaining benefit, but displaying incorrectly).
• Removed Great Unclean One units from the Mechanical Range skill as the ranged effects were not relevant.
• Added Skullcannon to the Riders of Doom skill for Daemon Prince.
• Removed Marauders of Khorne from the Unholy Terror Troopers display as that unit is unavailable for the Daemon Prince.
• Added all mortal Regiments of Renown to Daemon Prince skills.
• The Green Guardian (Terracotta Sentinel) now added to skills that affect Terracotta Sentinel units.
• Removed Black Ark Corsairs units from the Sheafmaster skill as the ranged effects were not relevant for the unit.
• Chaos Knights of Khorne are now correctly listed in the Bloodsoaked Champions skill.
• Removed Chaos Warhound (Poison) from the Unnatural Selection display as that unit is unavailable for Norsca.
• Added Marauder Horsemen of Khorne to the Bloodsoaked Champions skill for Khorne.
• Added Marauder Horsemen of Khorne to the Overwhelming Stampede skill for Khorne.

We’ve also taken the liberty to update some older mass values to bring Cavalry units up to scratch. We got some good feedback when we increased the mass of Wild Riders in the last patch, so we’ve made a few more changes to cavalry mass that will hopefully push us nearer to that nice sweet spot where charges feel impactful, but can still be countered in the right circumstances.

Generally we’ve attempted to break cavalry up into certain mass brackets like Light Cavalry, Regular Cavalry, Heavy/Shock Cavalry, Monstrous Cavalry and Character Cavalry, so that the experience and interactions between Cavalry and other units are more readable and consistent across the board.

This is still a work in progress, so if you have any strong opinions on the mass of units in the game, we’d love to hear them.

Other notable changes:

• Players must take a Lord-type character as their Lord in a game of Domination or Survival (no more sneaky Skavenslave Lords!)
• Characters mounted on chariots can once again fire magic missile spells.
• Units should be a bit more reliable when attempting to fire magic missiles from walls.

Races & Balance

General

• All rites, including those for the Tomb Kings, High Elves and Vampire Coast, are once again locked until their requirements are met.

Spells & Abilities

Army Abilities

INEVITABLE FATE

• Recharge Time (Seconds): 120 → 150

INEVITABLE FATE UPGRADE I

• Recharge Time (Seconds): 105 → 120
• Initial Recharge Time (Seconds): 0 → 30

• Burning Wrath has had its accuracy tightened up to allow it to more reliably hit targets.

FLAMES OF AZGORH & FLAMES OF AZGORH UPGRADED

• The penetration value of Flames of Azgorh’s projectiles has been increased so that the spawned projectiles no longer immediately explode and over-damage very large units (I’m looking at you, Durthu – get out of the fire, dude, you’re made of wood!).

Unit Abilities

EVERYONE HAS THEIR PRICE

We assessed this ability and came to the conclusion that its previous implementation wasn’t quite hitting the mark, so we’ve made it a bit easier to use and understand.

• Everyone Has Their Price has been reworked into an AoE debuff that targets all unit within its radius.
• Active Time (Seconds): 20 → 35
• Recharge Time (Seconds): 60 → 90
• Effect Range: 0 → 35

LORD OF TORMENT

• Intensity conditions have been lowered.
• Only 5 routing units are required to be in range in order to achieve 100% intensity.

THE BLESSING OF THE LADY

• Physical Resistance Buff: 25% → 0%
• Ward Save Buff: 0% → 15%

HEROIC FORTITUDE

• Effect Duration: 1s → 2s
• Heal Amount %: 0 → 12

PELT OF WULFAG

• Pelt of Wulfag has been fixed, so that any fleeing enemy unit within the ability’s 55m radius is now effected by it’s debuff.
• Previously the ability was only able to target a single enemy unit. This was a bug.

THE WASTING SICKNESS

• Effect Range: 35 → 55
• Base Weapon Strength Debuff: -25% → -10%
• Armour Piercing Weapon Strength Debuff: -25% → -10%

LANCE

• With the Bretonnian cavalry getting a bit of a stat rework, Lance Formation has been nerfed slightly to compensate for these new numbers.
• Mass Buff: 50% → 30%
• Charge Bonus Buff: 40% → 30%
• Acceleration Buff: 40% → 30%

ICON OF DEVOTION

• With Peasants receiving a leadership buff from adjacent Knights, the burden of propping up Peasants can now be shouldered more evenly across the roster.
• The Grail Relique’s leadership buffing effects have been reduced slightly and a melee attack buff has been added alongside the existing effects to reflect this change.
• Melee Attack Buff 0 → 5
• Leadership Buff: 12 → 8

Item Abilities

THE VENOM STAFF

• Wind Up Time: 5 → 1
• Fixed a Bug where Khalida couldn’t cast this ability whilst mounted on a Chariot

BRAID OF BORDELEAUX

• Bonus vs Large: 8 → 12

HELM OF YVRESSE

• Fixed an issue where the item ability was granting two different types of the ‘Unbreakable’ status.

THE VIAL OF HASHUT

• We reduced the weakness to fire effect of this ability, as it stacked a bit too effectively with all other sources of weakness to Fire on the Chaos Dwarf Roster.
• Bringing this value down means that now Chaos Dwarfs can get a maximum debuff effect of -100% Weakness to Fire if they combine all 5 sources.
• Weakness to Fire caps out at -100%, so this is now more game appropriate.
• Active Time (Seconds): 55 → 60
• Weakness to Fire: 60% → 20%
• Armour Debuff: -40 → -60

CHALICE OF BLOOD & DARKNESS

• The Chalice of Blood and Darkness now activates based on map-wide enemy spell activations for half of the previous heal amount. This makes it easier to use, although it is still limited by a 90 second cooldown between each activation.
• Heal Amount %: 1.6 → 0.8

STONE MANTLE

• Now activates when the unit has 75% or less HP remaining
• Now scales the effect across 4000 hit points of damage rather than 3000, meaning that overall the ability is a bit slower to scale up.
• Speed Debuff: -10% → -20%

Beastmen

Units

MOUNT: RAZORGOR CHARIOT

• Entity Mass: 1,400 → 2,000

FERAL MANTICORE

• Entity Mass: 1,600 → 2,000

• The scaling success chance for Chaos Dwarfen actions against enemy heroes is now in-line with the other Lords and Heroes in the game.

Traits

• The Monster Commander trait for convoys now correctly grants its bonuses to the Lammasu and Taurus units.

Technology

• Powers of the Conclave now correctly increases the number of uses for Blood & Fireborn and Dreadquake Battery army abilities.

Dark Elves

Gameplay

• Dark Elves now have the ability to consume their Slaves in order to Rush Construction.
• High control now reduces the slave consumption within a province. This recreates the Chaos Dwarf Labour relationship where if you maintain control you lose significantly less Labour per turn, but while maintaining Slaves as a global resource for Dark Elves.
• Post-battle Slave rewards have been rebalanced to offer significantly more base rewards but slightly less from the post-battle options. Overall, this should be a small net increase, but more importantly give the player more freedom to not always select the Slave option to stay in the green.
• Slave rewards from Raiding have been improved. We have also fixed a few pooled resource related bugs when raiding (such as being able to spam raid a single region without lowering the overall amount).
• Removed the constructions speed buffs from maintaining large amounts of Slaves. This is now covered by the addition of Rush Construction. Maintaining a low amount of stockpiled slaves now increases control, while maintaining a large amount of stockpiled slaves reduces control.

Edicts

• Adjusted the Slave Quotas Edict to reduce the cost of Rush Construction, slightly reducing the Growth amount.

Buildings

• Slaves are now consumed and the bonus effects are now applied on a per building basis if they can be afforded rather than all buildings simultaneously turning on/off if the player has over 100 Slaves.
• All buildings which have bonus Slave effects now also consume Slaves
• Slave consumption per building has been lowered
• All slave consumption buildings now provide lower base benefits but greater bonus effects if Slave requirements are met (this was the opposite before)

Ports no longer consume Slaves for bonus income, they now generated Slaves per turn.

• This has been done to help counter stacking slave costs per turn into the end game, and also provide rewarding targets for hunting down and capturing ports with your black arks.

We have adjusted/moved the effects on a few infrastructure buildings:

• Slave income moved to Roads Building
• Removed the Growth from the Roads Building
• Reduced Diktats cost moved to Slave Pens building;
• Slave Pens now reduces the Slave Consumption from buildings
• Slight replenishment buff for the Growth building

Karond Kar Landmark now provides a small global reduction in Slave consumption

Diktats

• Reduced costs to 200/300/400 (and adjusted the effects to match the new costs).
• Reduced the cooldown of the treasury Diktat to 1 turn.

Skills

• Slightly buffed assassin Slave generation to 5/10/15 from 3/6/10

Text/Tooltips/Help Pages

• Multiple text updates to match the new changes.

General Updates

• Fixed an issue with the Death Night button, where the button would be clickable even if the player didn’t have enough slaves to use it.

Campaign

• Fixed an issue where Rakarth was releasing his Slaves when sacking certain cultures rather than enslaving them. He should correctly generate Slaves when sacking against all enemies now.
• The Gate to the Underworld Sea Landmark building has been restored to its rightful place in Hag Graef.
• The Vandalised Court of the Everqueen landmark building now spreads Slaanesh corruption when playing as Morathi.
• Reduced the cooldown and maximum turns before a mission is guaranteed for the Whispers of T’zarkhan mechanic. This should improve the frequency of these missions.
• The loyalty of confederated or requested armies is no longer 0.
