Soulstone Survivors is a game where you fight endless hordes of monsters in a match. Each time you level up, you’re presented with different power-ups that can benefit your chosen character. While this looks simple, you’ll face moments when picking the best power-up for a particular level is a headache. Well, there’s a nifty new feature included in the Omen of Springs Update that solves this problem!
The new Lock Power feature in Soulstone Survivors lets you lock power-ups a few times per run. This means that whenever you’re presented with two powerful power-ups, you can choose one and lock the other. The locked power-up will be available the next time you level up!
The Omen of Springs Update also implements balancing tweaks. For instance, the Smoke Bomb - an ability that envelops an area in smoke and applies 60% slow on affected enemies - is no longer affected by damage and critical modifiers. According to the developers, this change was made because Smoke Bomb is not a damaging skill.
