Endless Legend 2 Update 40 Fixes Minor Factions and City Quests
Update 40 for Endless Legend 2 focuses on resolving minor faction bugs, city razing issues, and quest progression blockers. It also adjusts repair costs and removes landscaping queue exploits.
Endless Legend 2 has received Update 40, addressing several issues with minor factions, quests, and economy mechanics. The patch ensures minor faction villages are handled during rebellions and city razing, while smoothing out broken quest triggers.
Minor Factions and Quests
The patch resolves progression issues involving minor factions. Lord Estate structures now correctly destroy when minor faction villages enter rebellion, and villages are properly removed when an owning city is razed. Additionally, the awakening quest Corrupted Defense no longer asks for unavailable heroes, and the Mangrove of Harmony pacification quest no longer requires a late-game technology.
Economy and Construction
City repair mechanics are changed, turning the repair-all option into a one-time buyout button with an associated cost. Cancelling an extractor from the construction queue no longer prevents players from rebuilding it. The Bringer of Metropolises deed now accounts for captured cities, and landscaping actions can no longer be queued multiple times.
Interface and Stability
Gamepad users will now see correct prompts in battle screens when accessing unit details. Aspect melee unit textures are improved, and Elders no longer remain visible on tiles when an army occupies them. Sandshaper heroes and quests have had mismatched roles and debug text removed, alongside 22 additional technical fixes for crashes and stability.
Why this patch matters
Update 40 cleans up specific quest blockers and economic exploits, making standard playthroughs more stable following the 1.0 launch.
