MORDHAU Patch 29 Demon Horde Hotfix 1 Fixes Boss Bugs and Weapon Balancing

MORDHAU's first hotfix for Patch 29 addresses Demon Horde performance, boss health bugs, weapon scaling, and map collision issues.

The MORDHAU development team deployed Hotfix 1 for Patch 29, targeting performance issues in later Demon Horde stages alongside various map and weapon fixes.

Demon Horde Performance and Bosses

Performance during later stages of Demon Horde is improved. A bug where map bosses occasionally spawned with reduced health is fixed. On Mountain Peak, the first boss lightning attack sound is restored, and boss health in Totenwald is increased.

Weapon and Blessing Adjustments

The Holy Grenade now correctly has a cooldown. Blessed Eveningstar, Blessed Crossbow, and Blessed Executioner no longer affect bosses, and the Blessed Executioner no longer impacts vehicles. Knockback blessing effects on the Rake are disabled when the player is falling. Explosive kegs are added to the Horde and Demon Horde buying menus, and reload turn-caps for the Chickenator are removed.

Map Fixes and Collisions

Castello's final-objective cannon is repaired so it is no longer inoperable. Totenwald receives fixes for invisible collisions blocking paths, a blacked-out mercenary select screen, whiteout visual bugs, and player-stuck spots. Mountain Peak addresses invisible collision blocks and bot navigation mesh issues.

UI and Miscellaneous Fixes

Objective catapults no longer take damage from weapons. Local Demon Horde match lighting disparities are resolved. Warrior and Huntsman gloves now properly follow face selections, and the Ultimate icon is removed when spectating other players in Horde modes.

Why this patch matters

This hotfix addresses critical progression roadblocks, unintended boss interactions, and performance bottlenecks introduced in the initial Demon Horde patch.
