Version 1.3.1 Released

Version 1.3.1 contains no new systems. It stabilizes the Hunt Board and Bestiary introduced in Version 1.3.0.

Fixed

• Apex Unique rewards are retained in a secure Hunt reward queue when the inventory is full.
• Pending Hunt rewards can be claimed from the Tavern after inventory space is available.
• Apex rewards prefer undiscovered Hunt Uniques before awarding duplicates.
• Hunt Gold now matches the displayed base bounty instead of paying encounter Gold plus a hidden second completion payout.
• Apex trails remain tied to their canonical unlocked regions and do not reveal late-game bosses in unrelated early regions.
• Hunt countdowns no longer display 60m.
• Maximum Hunt Rank now displays a completed progress state.
• Bestiary locations use actual encounter records instead of an index-based unrelated region.
• Bestiary mastery stages unlock sequentially.
• Apex-specific Monster Cards are now linked to the correct Apex entries.
• Bestiary search supports German names, elements, weaknesses and regions without losing input focus.
• Corrupted Hunt contracts, histories, records and pending rewards are repaired safely during save normalization.
• Recent Hunt Chronicle entries are no longer discarded during normalization.
• German Hunt, Bestiary, Tavern, Hunt-set and Monster-Card texts were expanded.

Balance

• Contract reputation was reduced to create a steadier Hunt Rank curve.
• The advertised Gold value is now the base bounty distributed across the required encounters; difficulty, Nemesis reward multipliers and Gold Find remain visible modifiers.
• Guaranteed Apex Uniques use collection-aware duplicate protection.
