ItemDescription

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.
  • The mana cost for all Attacks, Marks and Warcries has been reduced, most notably at higher Gem levels.
  • Rain of Arrows' arrow landing frequency is now affected by projectile speed modifiers, meaning that (for example) increased projectile speed causes the same number of arrows to land in a shorter total time.
0.1.0d
  • Rain of Arrows and Firestorm now have a hit-rate limit to prevent cases of them absolutely obliterating very large bosses. This will have little to no impact outside of boss fights with very large hitboxes.
0.1.0
  • Introduced to the game.
