Lustiest Lair: Expanded v1.74 Test Release (Baron Tier Early Access)
🕑 Added 2025-12-05 00:12:38 +0000 UTCThe Bound in Brass Update
Changes:
Added a new enemy to the Ruins, Cove, and Workshop regions: Spectre. Her ghostly hands will haunt your heroines, trying to distract them if they attack!
Added support for Spectre actorDots to already supported modded classes: Lamia, Marauder, Duchess, and Omen Seeker.
Non-supported classes will simply not be targetable by Spectre for the 'Ghostly Groping' attack to prevent a crash.
Added a ton of new Curios to The Workshop with art and animation by the esteemed DonGorbleone!
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Abandoned Trunk.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Aged Barrel.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Shattered Mirror.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Discarded Scraps.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Fortune Teller.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Doll Prototype.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Tool Bench.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Pleasure Seat.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Schematics Boards.
Added a new Curio to The Workshop: Leaking Pipe.
Changed the curio tracker IDs for Mimic Chests to perfectly mimic the icons used by the heirloom chest. This means that you can no longer tell whether or not an heirloom chest is a mimic by seeing what items you've already used on it in the past. Yes, I am a monster.
Antivenom now also causes the mimic chest to attack the player, further mimicking the behaviour of the heirloom chest. There is still a tell, however.
Increased the loot reward for defeating mimics at all levels. They now drop all the rewards dropped by a skeleton key on an heirloom chest + extra gold on top + mimic special loot + a chance to drop a rare and powerful Mimic trinket
Added new quirk: Workshop Amateur.
Added new quirk: Workshop Slut.
Added new quirk: Automatonophilia. Not to be confused with the existing 'Automatonophilia' that increase stress damage taken from human enemies, which will be renamed. This one will increase damage taken from the new Automaton enemy type.
Renamed quirk: 'Automatonophilia' -> 'People Pleaser'.
So to clarify: 'Automatonophilia' = Damage vs. Automatons, and 'People Pleaser' = Damage vs. Humans.
Added lore for The Workshop via loading screen tips.
Added loading screen tips for The Workshop, where most of the lore lives as well as a handful of tips for how to fight the automata within.
Changed the lighting at high torch levels in all dungeons with the UI mod enabled, to not fuck with the colours of things so much.
Bugfixes:
Corrected some more instances of Marionettes not properly animating their attacks.
Corrected a hall mash that's supposed to be a room mash in apprentice level dungeons.
Fixed an exceedingly rare instance where, in champion level dungeons, the broken puppetmaster could ambush players in the night. Spooky!
Fixed mimic curio strings being stored in the 'quests' xml instead of the 'curios' xml. I'm trying to keep things nice and tidy so that LL:E is easy for you guys to play with and mod.
Fixed missing buff tooltip strings for 'Workshop' and 'Automaton'.
Fixed missing quest log strings for exploring and battling in The Workshop.
Known Issues:
The first time the Spectre's grabby hands transition from Floating -> Grabbing, the game crashes. If you simply reload the game the issue does not persist. I think I've killed this bug, but if you get it this please shoot a bug report into #test-build-bug-reports on the Discord!
Things that are not bugs:
The Ghostly Hands status sprites don't work with skins that change the heroine's skeleton. They're designed with the base game skeleton in mind, and with the pre-supplied Hazu skins in mind. If you use custom skins, expect the grabby hands to not fully line up.
The Spectre will try her best to avoid targeting unsupported mod classes, but if you use nothing but unsupported mod classes you may eventually see a crash when she tries to place a Ghostly Hands DoT on one.
Do not report these. They're limitations of the engine that I can do very little about. I'm aware they exist -- if you report these you give me permission to shoot you with eye lasers.

Same save file will work just fine - just never save your game mid-battle or mid-dungeon. Make sure you're in the hamlet when you update the mod :)
Silvery Serpent
with each of these updates will people have to make a new campign, or are we safe to use the same save file?
