Brighter Shores has just received a new set of patch notes. You now have the possibility to change your entire appearance at the Hopeport hairdresser! But that’s not all. Here is everything you need to know about the latest bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements.
As with previous patches, Andrew Gower shared the following patch notes on his X account, as well as on Steam:
Quality of Life Improvements

- Change bone spikes to require, and be boosted by, hand rakes (matching the animation).
- Show damage numbers when watching other players doing combat.
- Make ‘use item’ the default action on the reagent preparation station.
Graphics Improvements
- Tweak combat flinch outlines a little more.
Bug Fixes
- Fix various typos.
- Fix brown cow leather offcuts icons to show the correct graphic.
- Use correct icon for grade 2 sickle.
- Fix Daguer to tell you the correct level requirement for the first cape.
- Fix incorrect “Not enough backpack space” message when equipping potions.
- Bug fixes to ‘cast net’ fish, they no longer vanish or appear incorrectly when other players are using them.
