Kill The Shadow Update Adjusts Fishing Prices and UI Navigation
Kill The Shadow update adjusts Shawn's gift attributes, lowers the Intermediate Fishing Rod price, and resolves controller UI navigation issues.
A fresh update for Kill The Shadow introduces balance adjustments to NPC gifting and fishing economics alongside critical interface fixes.
Economy and Gifting Adjustments
Shawn's maximum gifted book limit has been increased, accompanied by improvements to the attribute bonuses those books provide. To make fishing more accessible early on, the price of the Intermediate Fishing Rod has been reduced.
Bug and Interface Fixes
An exploit involving the fisherman NPC in Pig Cage Walled City that granted unlimited money has been closed. Visual blockers where a wall near Kiki's bridge obscured player views have been removed. Controller users can once again use the RB button to cycle through all UI menu screens after opening the deduction interface.
Why this patch matters
The patch successfully closes a major currency exploit while smoothing out quality-of-life snags for controller users and economy progression.
