Greetings hunters,

We are pleased to announce 3 new tools, a new enemy, and some extra goodies!

Carving Knife
The new carving knife tool is used to extract certain cryptids parts, perfect for sweeping jobs.
Also all crafting recipes have been revised to use cryptid parts & evidence.

Dead Man’s Map
A tool that doubles up for navigation & sign finding, uses corpses/bonepiles as reference points.
Also useful for finding those quickly to work in conjunction with blacklight.

RX-20 Shotgun Mic
Detects potential signs in “odd sounds” areas, veteran players might recognize this one.
The mic replaces the tier-1 parabolic, and can also detect sounds through walls.

Spectre
Entry level spectral enemy, with teleportation & psychosis abilities.
