The 'Restored Relic' Ultimate Weapon's bug was addressed by fixing the issue where the Guided Round of the weapon did not apply the 'Ancient Fire' status effect. This fix was included in The First Descendant's Hotfix 1.0.1 patch, which aimed to resolve various issues and improve gameplay.
The First Descendant's Hotfix 1.0.1 addresses several issues, including reducing the logo sound volume at launch, stabilizing servers and clients, fixing performance issues on PS5, resolving an FSR Upscale malfunction on Xbox Series X|S, speeding up knockback and knockdown recovery times, and adjusting the Eterlick shield skill usage per phase. Additionally, various bug fixes have been implemented.
Nexon offered free in-game items recently as compensation for The First Descendant's choppy launch, which faced issues with game performance and criticisms over microtransactions. The developer aimed to appease affected players and address some of the concerns raised by the community.
