Version history

Version Changes
0.2.0c
  • Minions have approximately 15% more Life through the early Campaign, tapering down to be unchanged by Gem Level 30 (or so).
    • Gem Level 10 Minions now have 41% More Damage.
    • Gem Level 15 Minions now have 50% More Damage.
    • Gem Level 20 Minions now have 60% More Damage.
    • Gem Level 30 Minions now have 79% More Damage.
0.2.0
  • Adjusted Minion Damage and Life scaling. General Damage and Life is the same early game, but lower than before at higher levels, especially past Gem level 20+.
  • Skeletal Warrior can no longer be engraved in the Gemcutting menu, as it was only provided as a stop-gap until this functionality was implemented. Existing copies of the Skeletal Warrior skill gem have been turned into Skeletal Sniper gems. The Skeletal Warrior skill granted by some sceptres now allows you to summon additional skeletons by reserving spirit, in addition to the two free skeletons it grants automatically.
