The First Descendant update 1.1.0b patch notes deliver Hailey buff and fixes

by

As a seasoned player of The First Descendant, I must say that the latest Season 1 update has been a game-changer! The addition of Hailey to the roster is simply brilliant and her recent buff in drop rates is a testament to Nexon’s responsiveness to fan feedback. It seems they’ve been listening to us grinders, and I can’t help but feel a sense of camaraderie with my fellow players who have shared their frustration about the excessive grind.

Season 1 of The First Descendant was recently released, offering an abundance of fresh, high-quality content, plus some wonderful enhancements for players’ experiences. A new character, Hailey, has been added to the game, and she’s proving to be a formidable addition to the TFD team. Nexon has unveiled the patch notes for update 1.1.0b, which includes several fixes and an increase in drop rates for Hailey due to feedback from fans.

After the debut of TFD in July, Nexon has demonstrated exceptional commitment to community input and following through on fan suggestions. This dedication is evident yet again in the update 1.1.0b for The First Descendant, as they’ve increased the frequency at which research materials are dropped for Hailey, based on player feedback.

The First Descendant update 1.1.0b patch notes

Below are The First Descendant update 1.1.0b patch notes as shared on X:

  • Increased Hailey’s Research Material(Enhanced Cells, DNA, Stabilizer, Spiral Catalyst, Data Chip) drop rate in Infiltration Operation
  • To prevent AFK farm in Void Fusion Reactors where Vulgus Elites are spawned, at least 2 Vulgus Elites will be spawned.
  • Fixed an issue where the Intercept Battle Results Screen was crashed intermittently.
  • Fixed an issue where frame drop occurs when using [PC] Nvidia DLSS Frame Generation

Absolutely, the main feature in this update is an enhancement to the frequency at which Hailey’s research items are dropped. Regrettably, there isn’t any information provided on the exact percentage increase for these drops during Infiltration Operations.

A grind is inevitable as that’s just the nature of the beast in live service experiences, but hopefully it is no longer so excessive. Before this update, many players were understandably bemoaning the grind as even more excessive than for Ultimates.

If you don’t want to grind at all, you can simply buy Hailey for 900 caliber. You can get 1,060 caliber for £15.99 (via PSN store).
