This will allow an increase of importance to players choices The last stage before boss have 20% chance to be a bonfire event (but cannot have other event) To compensate this, event have a 30% less common as a stage type

• S-Rank World Provide a completely different level of difficulty, with a much more aggressive scaling of enemies health and damage over the run as well as a few minor change to some bosses I know it going to be completely destroyed by veteran, but it should still prove a huge increase in difficulty to most player that finished with A-rank Require the completion of 20 challenges

• Zone Modifier Zone have a chance to have modifiers (both positive and negative) First loop always have one zone choice that won't have any modifiers (except in S-rank) The higher you are in loops, the more modifiers (both positive and negative) can appear

• Change to camera perspective This is a change I made to gain quality on Volumetric like without having to increase it's performance cost

  This technically doesn't change angle or how much thing is display on screen, but it definitely make the game look different I know some player won't like the new camera, so there is a game option to revert back to the old camera perspective (Game Option > Visual > Camera)

• Reworked Infinite Material progression Infinite material tier is now set-up in 4 tier, each fitting to a range of equipment tiers:

  • Tier 1 is used for equipment from infinite +1 to infinite +99

  • Tier 2 is used for equipment from infinite +100 to +499 (can only be obtained in Expert mode)

  • Tier 3 is used for equipment from infinite +500 to +999 (can only be obtained in Mythic mode)

  • Last tier is used for equipment above Infinite +1000 (can only be obtained in Ascended mode)

• Added a new mechanics of "Over-Killing" to player (only enabled in Expert Mode and above) When you receive damage (after defence and damage mitigation and all damage reduction effect) multiple order of magnitude above your max health, you are instantly killed, ignoring all damage dodging mechanics (and evasion damage capping) In Mythic and Ascended, you can get "Ultra-Overkilled", which also completely ignore all death dodging mechanics, but OoM requirement is significantly higher

  • Death door ability disable anachronistic during the debuff duration

• Black Market

  Black market is a very rare variant of shop, that allow player to obtain card that they shouldn't be able to obtain at the moment

  • It can range from banished card, to card that you are still missing the requirement, or ever card exclusive to other avatars !

  • There is also a rare chance of the shop offering you an evolution for cards that you don't even own yet !

  • However, price in the black-market scale with the gold you already own !

  • Unlocked by Investing 10 million gold coin to the shop keeper Once unlocked, normal shop have 1% chance to be replaced by a blackmarket (+0.2% * log1e7( Investment))

  • (Black-market has an additional discount equal to log10x(Investment/1e7)x0.01 up to 1e32 gold invested)

  • Above that, the formula is 0.25 + log10x(Investment/1e32)x0.0025 The discount is multiplicative to the discount of normal shop; Black Market also have much lower chance to appear at lower world rank)

• Huge refactoring of statistics Game now support any number of calculation step, called Layers

  There is still the default steps: "Base/Multiplier/Post", but also Late Multiplier (inserted after Multiplier and before Post), and Conversion (Added after Post) that allow conversion card to use effect of non-conversion post cards

• S-rank - Closest Shrine tracker Point toward the closest active shrine

• S-rank Inventory page upgrades

  Can add up to 10 page at max level, it should be enough for most of your weird shenanigans with equipments

New Weapons

• Ascended Evolution Weapon - Reality Rifter Charge and fire a powerful ray splitting reality in half, Any non-boss enemies to side of the rift are pulled at high speed, Damage GREATLY increase during prolonged exposure to the rift

Fixes

• Damage number scaling issues (and a few other issues related to damage numbers)

• Hero mode no longer prevent equipped item from being hovered

• Rooted damage modifier not being reflected on DPS stats of weapon (they would display unscaled damages)

• Interdimensional Rose and Rift being applied on the player in case of self damages

• "Continue" button not being selectable with gamepad in reward screen without picking up every reward

• Escaping from the modifier crafting menu (with B-button or escape) no longer return you to the main menu, but to the equipment menu as it should

• Material colour not fitting the equivalent Equipment tier colour after S tier

• Purification description being inaccurate at value lower than 1

• Roots of endless growth working for normal enemies

• Hemo-Tempora scaling based on flat health and not normalised health

• Silkskin wing not applying its stat properly

• Holy Conversion not applying its stats properly

• Silk Edge wasn't properly update its value when power value is modified

• Challenge being directly available at super high level when unlocking them

• Fog quality being different when set via the general setting or with Custom quality set on

• Depth of field inconsistency between different camera mode/Zoom level, now the blur always start the same height of the screen whatever the zoom or camera perspective is

• Shopkeeper avatar level-up remaining UI not displayed

• Weapon modifier not being properly removed from weapons when card is removed

• Item Name in rewards when artifact pool is empty

• Tooltip sometime not disappearing during profile creation

• Rare bug where duplicated artifact could spawn as reward

• Damage mitigation value being wrong in equipment tooltip

• Gunslinger having weapon cap in challenges

• Reward scroll being at the bottom of selection

• Material list in Modifier crafting missing the last material

• Item tooltip overlapping each other for item comparison on reward screen (also made them behave in a more intuitive way when reaching the screen border)

• Ankh and Volcanic fury not properly displaying value for level above 1

• Some boss related enemies counting as boss kill for Blood bath and Blood handed

• Bow talent damage not properly scaling as said

• Crystal sword talent not properly applying the bonus from talent on the slash

• "Worm gland" and "Fire Ring" Active talent description not working

• Secondary modifier not gaining bonus drop chance when not learned yet

Optimisation

• Loading run with a lot of card/artifact now take very low amount of time (from 5seconds to about 1)

• Touching a shrine while having a lot of card should no longer freeze the game (at least not nearly as much)

• Reduced enemies count in Manor by 60% (also reduced objectives kill requirement) to improve performance

• Reduced enemies count in Void Plane by 30% (also reduced objectives kill requirement) to improve performance

Modding

• Custom card now should properly support empty card requirement without causing errors

New Command

• Stat Breakdown {StatName} Display in depth everything that affect a stat value, should greatly help with bug reporting
