DragonSword: Awakening Patch 1.0.5 — Ornette Quest Fix
Last updated: August 2026
Official July 30, 2026 hotfix resolving Ornette interaction softlock on Adventure Quests 15 through 18.
Patch 1.0.5 Overview — July 30, 2026
Hound13 published Update Notes 1.0.5 on July 30 as a targeted hotfix alongside Patch 1.0.4. The update addresses a single high-impact bug: a softlock triggered during Ornette Hero Request interactions on Adventure Quests 15 through 18.
Changelog
- Fixed Ornette interaction softlock on Adventure Quests 15 through 18
- Players can now progress through the Ornette Hero Request storyline without the dialogue freezing
Who Is Affected
Any player working through Ornette's Hero Request storyline who reached Adventure Quests 15–18 experienced the freeze when initiating dialogue with Ornette. The game required a force-close and restart, losing unsaved progress. After updating to 1.0.5, retry the Ornette interaction at your current quest stage — your quest log progress is preserved.
Context
Ornette's Hero Request is the first post-launch narrative content released for DragonSword: Awakening, exploring the Phantom Thief's backstory and her relationship with the Organa Order. The Adventure Quest chain preceding the softlock covers Ornette's investigation missions in Orbis. See our Hero Quests & Rifts page for the full roadmap of post-launch story content.
Pair with Patch 1.0.6 (July 31) for the Summer Sea Set cosmetic wave, and see How to Use Ornette for combat tips on this Thunderbolt specialist.
