Task Bar of Ragnalis Roadmap
Cooking Buffs, Arcana Cards, and an honest Market postponement—not wishlists.
Roadmap versus wishlist
This page tracks Steam-news roadmap targets for Task Bar of Ragnalis. Dates below are approximate targets from official posts, not hard guarantees. When a feature is postponed, this wiki says so in plain language instead of padding a fake calendar.
For what already shipped in hotfixes, use Patch Notes. For broken chests, EXP, soft bans, or Reset recovery, use Troubleshooting. For whether the game is still worth your idle hours while you wait, see Worth Playing and the Honest Review.
Near-term targets from Steam news
~August 7 — v1.1 Cooking Buffs
The first dated target called out after the 1.0.x hotfix window is v1.1 Cooking Buffs, aimed around August 7. Official posts frame cooking as a buff-oriented update rather than a full second game mode. Steam roadmap text says you will collect ingredients from enemies, prepare dishes at the tavern, and grant a variety of buffs so meal choice can support the current challenge or farming route. Until that build is live, do not invent exact recipes, ingredient drop tables, or hidden multipliers here.
What you can plan without inventing systems:
- Keep your party of three healthy so a buff layer has a baseline to improve—see Party Builds and the Party Planner.
- Keep stacking toward tier-ups with the nine matching items rule—see Stack Items, Tier Up, and the Stack Calculator.
- Keep equipment slots filled thoughtfully across eight slots with an eye on random skills—see Items and Random Skills.
When v1.1 lands, return to Updates and expect a dedicated patch summary rather than relying on memory of this roadmap paragraph.
v1.2 Market — indefinitely postponed
Steam Market support is indefinitely postponed. Official reasoning cites Japanese legal concerns related to the Premiums Act. That is stronger than “delayed a week.” There is no substitute date published alongside the postponement.
Practical implications:
- Do not plan your economy around listing gear on the Steam Market.
- Do not buy or hold items solely because “Market is coming in v1.2.”
- Treat third-party trading rumors as unofficial unless Steam news changes.
- Progress through offline rewards, stage clears, stacking, and party power—the systems that already exist.
If a YouTube thumbnail or blog still promises an imminent Market for Task Bar of Ragnalis, cross-check this page and the Updates hub. Also confirm the video is not talking about Task Bar Hero, a different game.
~August 21 — v1.3 Arcana Cards
The next dated target after cooking is v1.3 Arcana Cards, aimed around August 21. Official messaging names the feature; it does not publish a full card list, rarity table, or crafting tree in the same breath as the date target. This wiki will not invent those details.
Until Arcana ships, card-like drops and random skills you already see should be understood through current Items documentation—not through speculative Arcana tier lists. After release, expect new guide links from the Guides hub rather than silent edits that pretend the cards always existed.
How to play while waiting
Roadmaps tempt people to idle without improving. Better loop while dates approach:
- Stabilize the client on the latest 1.0.x fixes (Patch Notes).
- Learn free classes: Templar Knight (frontline, Sigils), Priest (healer, Prayer), Witch (backline Full Cast), Gunner (ranged mark/eliminate) via Classes.
- Evaluate DLC Pirate and Overlord only if a real roster gap exists (DLC, Pirate & Overlord).
- Use Tools for stack and party math instead of waiting for Market flipping.
- Ignore fake redeem lists (Codes)—there is no codes system to bridge the wait.
- Keep the desktop window readable (Setup) so cooking or Arcana UI later is usable on day one.
Offline rewards already exist. You do not need Market or Arcana to justify leaving the client running while you work. You do need a party that can clear, chests that open (fixed in 1.0.2), and gear that tiers up.
Honest caveats about dates
- “Around August 7” and “around August 21” are targets, not contracts.
- Hotfix priority can jump ahead of feature work if soft locks return.
- Legal holds (Market / Premiums Act) can last longer than balance patches.
- This site is unofficial; Steam news remains the authority when dates move.
When a target slips, the useful response is to re-read official news, update this roadmap’s understanding, and keep stacking—not to install gray-market trainers.

What success looks like before v1.1
Success before Cooking Buffs is boring on purpose: a patched client, a three-hero lineup with clear frontline/backline jobs, eight slots filled with intentional stacks, and no dependence on postponed Market income. If that baseline is fun, v1.1 and v1.3 are upgrades. If that baseline is miserable even after 1.0.2, read Worth Playing before you calendar your August around Arcana Cards.
Stay patient with legal delays. Stay strict with facts. The Market postponement is real; cooking and Arcana are named targets; everything else should earn its place through Steam news—not through speculation dressed up as a wiki roadmap.
