- Patch Release Date: April 11, 2024
The developer of Northgard has released a new update for the game on April 11, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam.
version: v3.3.27.37496-public-beta
_Hello players!
Following the previous changes, this new patch adds some more changes going in the same general direction and iterations on those previous changes to ensure everything is balanced._
Balancing
Clans
After the previous patch’s changes to collaborative actions among allies, now being rewarded with positive relations gains, we’re also adding those gains to some specific collaborative actions, like the rat clan healing its allies or the bear clan using its production bonuses in their zones.
Rat
- When healing ally units, the rat clan improves their relations with this clan.
- Last Stand Shaman ability (Weapon Forge) effect is now capped to a maximum +300% Dmg increase.
- Burning a Sheep as Rat clan now provides 60 days of Purification Pyre (instead of 90 previously).
Bear
- When Kaija and/or Borgild provide an ally zone with the Kindred Spirit production bonus (fame 200), they improve their relations with this clan.
- Winter Festival now reduces the clan units’ food consumption during winter by -30% instead of boosting food production.
Eagle
- Feeding a Sheep to the Hawks now calls a maximum of 3 Hawks on the Boneyard (limiting the max amount of resources possible to obtain in this way).
Raven
Following the nerfs made to the Raven raids, and especially the potential relic harass made with the previous patch, we’re pretty happy with how tuned down the raid toxicity can now feel, but we’re a bit worried about those changes we’ve also reduced a lot of the appeal, not necessarily of the raids themselves, but of the relic. With this patch, we’re trying to balance those things by making the relic more of an assured return on investment for the Raven without making it at the detriment of the targeted clan.

-
Relic – new additional effect:
Raids now collect resources from the zone when they arrive rather than when they leave (making sure to obtain the resources of the raid even if the whole raid dies). -
Raids
- Silos now also count as a source of Food when the zone is raided.
- Each mercenary killed during the raid increases the raid cooldown of the zone by +20 seconds (previously +30).
