I am excited to present a new profession entering the world of OneBit! This time, Pyromancer is getting a special spotlight featuring 6 new skills including lava traps that deals AOE burn on enemies standing on them! Unfortunately, the open beta will have some placeholder animations and the new dungeon is still not ready for this update… I didn’t want to delay too long due to a new Halloween special event being part of this update. This update is rolling out to open beta on all platforms soon!
Fireball
Sacrifice hp to shoot a ball of fire and leave a trail of lava inflicting burn each turn the enemy stands on it. This new skill will be in Volcanology profession and also replacing Spiked skill from Ignitor profession. (Flying pumpkin is a new enemy skin for Bats for the month of October! Thank FrozTea for that one!)
Obsidian Frame
For a certain amount of turns, become a tank that is immune to stun, knockback, self damage, and gain damage reduction for incoming attacks! This is limited for a number of steps, but works well with other active skills that would normally deal self damage!
Phoenix Eruption
Passively survive a fatal blow that would have killed you. This will erupt lava to nearby tiles and deal damage to nearby enemies.
Molten Lance
This animation is not finished, but visually, this is the range of attack this skill will have. Sacrifice hp to deal damage and knockback enemies.
Lava Breath
Sacrifice hp to spray a cone of lava that will deal burn damage.
Volcanology Skill List
Pricing for new skills will be free during open beta. All stats are not finalized and will likely change during open beta.
Preview Profession is Finally Here!
You can now preview the skills the profession has before deciding! This is a long time coming and will help you view the skills in the profession without having to respec.
Which Equipment is Better?
You will now be able to see which stats are better than your current equipment. Green being better, red being worse and equals being the same. Huge QOL that works on Equipment, Blacksmith, and Forger screen. This feature is available by default and can be toggled off in the settings.
3 New Ascension Skills
Wicked Hours Feature
With the recent nerfs to Reapers, I have decided to give a little incentive to skip campfires. Wicked Hours occurs when you skip 2 campfires in succession which will cause more enemies to spawn which are also buffed with more damage and hp. The bonus is they will have a 10% chance to drop equipment. This will provide a new advantage for those that want to maximize their kills for Rankings. You can end Wicked Hours at any time by visiting a campfire or by quick saving. Wicked Hours does not work with CDN or EDN quests for the sake of your sanity.
2 New Equipment
Diving gear to help with your underwater adventures are here! These new equipment only drops from Leviathan.
Halloween Special Event
New special event is here! I am still planning a late 5 year anniversary event, but at the time, I did not have the skins ready for the event. Unlock new rewards by breaking pumpkins/crates. The official end date will change upon public release.
Dungeon Delayed
For as much stuff as I packed into this update, I also didn’t want to overshadow Pyromancer even more with a new dungeon. The next new dungeon will come in the next major update.

Hey I’m Odin! Pyromancer I’m just playing your characterI quite like these changes you’ve made, but the enemies are overly simplistic and it’s getting boring. I have a lot of healing potions and bananas, I’m something like an immortal! It was pretty good at first, I tried not to die, I had fun thanks to the lack of healing items, but now I’m pretty bored. The potential of the game is high, I hope you continue to develop it with perseverance, my friend.
I will consider adjusting drop rates of health items in a later update.

Update is in open beta. To join, you have to tap the Join Beta button on the Play Store. This update will go public in the coming days, but will notify everyone when it is live.
When the update will be aviable on steam ? Can’t wait to play!
Currently, it is available in open beta. Right click OneBit Adventure in your library > Properties > Betas. You can choose to wait till the public launch in the coming days as there are still bugs needing to be fixed.
