Version history

Version Changes
0.2.0
  • Many Skills have had their base damage and/or damage growth per level rebalanced. Most of these changes are not specifically mentioned below as the changes are too widespread.
  • Hexblast can now only detonate Curses for which at least 50% of the duration has expired. This means it can never explode Curses that have an infinite duration. Curse orbs will be visually different when 50% of the Curse duration has expired if you have Hexblast equipped. The Explosion radius of Hexblast has been increased to 2 metres (previously 1.6 metres), and it now has a maximum of 3 Explosions per cast (previously 9).
0.1.0d
  • Updated the description on Hexblast to clarify that it only detonates a single Curse per Enemy in its radius.
0.1.0
  • Introduced to the game.
