New major content

Dual class system

• Added the unlocked ability to select a secondary class - you will gain relics and class powers of your primary and secondary class at the same time! Find the best combinations, while evolving both classes at once!

Pet inventory slot

• Added a new inventory category: pets.

• Item system now supports modifiers which are fixed to the item and are not rerollable or changeable, in addition to the current rerollable modifiers.

• Pets will be unlocked through finishing different trial levels on the realms.

• Pets can have fixed unique modifiers and a unique type of modifiers impacting events and the strength of the pet.

Corruption enters the realms

• AddedAdded a new event typeCorrupted Level-ups . Take on burdens to gather corruption and spend it to gain the new unique corruption-perks . Or let the gathered corruption spread into your realm ...

• Added benefitial corruption effects based on your corruption level (Corruption freed into the realm rises the corruption level of the area).

• Added corrupted enemies as the first level of the new corruption mechanic and unique advantages for the later levels.

• Darkness realm now specializes in the corruption mechanic, but through new unlocks you will be able to spread even more corruption in the other realms.

Endgame

• Added the legendary sixth trial to all realms (unlocked by beating darkness 5).

• All classes may now evolve to level 6 (Through Heaven legendary trial level 6).

• Added 7 new unlocks/crafting methods for boots and pets for Darkness trial level 6.

• Added a new realm to the game: Infinity.

Armor inventory slot

• Added armors to the game, those can only be obtained by using the corruption system.

• An armor can have 1-8 modifiers, depending on your unlocks. You can only "reroll all mods" or "reroll the rarities of all mods" on the armor, there is no other way to craft on an armor.

• Crafting methods on an armor are very expensive, and are unlocked in mid/end game.

• Every time you use a crafting method on an armor, you will increase the chances for higher rarity modifiers for all future crafting methods on armor by 1%.

• E.g. After rerolling the mods of an armor 100 times, you will have double the chances for magic/rare/legendary modifiers.

• This increase is global, so even if you find another armor you will profit from those bonuses.

• This opens up a gold sink which steadily increases players potential to craft a godlike armor, while still making the armor slot be awesome early on, albeit with a lower number of high rarity mods on it.

Status rework

• Every status ailment infliction now also applies a damaging dot onto the enemy which scales based on the hit which inflicted the status, with the exception of it's critical strikes, as those will not increase the dot.

• Those dots can stack up on the enemy, which will provide even more opportunities to scale your build. It is now also possible to stack up status chance over 100%. Example: with 250% chance to cause a status you will apply 2 DOT effects per hit and have a 50% chance to apply a third dot effect on the same hit. (Shoutout to Last Epoch!)

• Added 3 new perks: status damage % , status dot stacks aplied +x flat (Rare, Legendary), status dot stacks applied multiplier *x (Legendary only).

RNG Seed system

• Added a RNG seed system into the game.

• Once unlocked you can type in your seed number and the following RNG-Events will be influenced by it: Perk Rarities, Perk types, Relic order, Epic relic encounter, all lvl-up-perk conditions, all prophecies available for chosing, golden prophecy whirl chances, square event symbols, corrupted burdens, corrupted benefits and random spawns which happen throughout the run.

  (--> Yep, you can fish for a seed with a Relic right from the start of the run)
