Patch Notes: Enchantments Update

Content Update

*NEW* Enchantment Altar

A new crafting station has been added, allowing players to enhance Hunter equipment with powerful magical attributes.

• Player needs to combine Hunter Equipment, Gem or Frozen Vampire Tear and a Blood Vial (optional), to enchant.

• The type of gem used defines the stat family from which the enchantment bonus is drawn: Vitality, Offensive, Defensive, Arcana, or Mobility. Higher gem tiers increase the bonus value applied and improve the chance of successfully landing lower-tier enchantments.

• If no Blood Vial is used, the enchantment roll is locked to the stat family of the selected Gem or Frozen Vampire Tear.

• AddedEnchanting can end in one of three waysa success , an exceptional success (which lands the enchantment at a higher tier than the gem used), or a failure . On failure, materials are still consumed, but a new resource, Arcane Dust, is added to your inventory in an amount based on the gem's tier.

• All existing enchantments can now have their tier raised.

• Each enchantment increases the price of Hunter's Gear depending on its tier.

• Vampire Servants cannot use the Enchantment Altar.

*NEW* Game Balance

The game has been rebalanced in terms of resources, economy, and character progression.

Gathering resources now takes longer, and building the Stronghold is now more demanding. World chests now contain random loot, including Hunter's Gear and Gems.

*NEW* Crafting Frozen Vampire Tears

A new node has been added at the end of each Arcana tree branch.

Completing the first Full Arcana tree unlocks the ability to convert Arcana Points into Frozen Vampire Tears (costs Existence). Each additional completed Full Arcana tree increases the chance of obtaining higher-tier Tears.

*NEW* Restock Chests

Inquisition camp chests now restock with loot every time their camp defenders respawn. Uncollected loot is added on top of whatever remains in the chest.

*NEW* Status Effects

New status effects have been added that affect both the player and enemies, as per the list below.

Duration and effect strength are identical for both by default (per-effect exceptions noted).

• Curse (new — player & enemies) Attack Damage reduced by 50%. For the player, also blocks Existence Regeneration from Blood.

• Stun (new — player & enemies) Cannot perform any actions for 1 second.

• Fear (new — enemies only) Cannot attack. Runs away from the player for 3 seconds.

• Silver (new — player only) No debuff is applied on hit. Instead, the player loses Blood equal to the Existence lost. Also causes faster Blood drain and Existence damage.

• Lightbound (new — player only) Cannot use Arcana skills or dash for 10 seconds.

• Burning (player & enemies) Damage over time + increased movement speed for 5 seconds.

• Poisoned (player & enemies) Damage over time + reduced movement speed for 10 seconds.

*NEW* Other additions

• Potion of the Arcane Crafter While this potion’s buff is active, it increases the chance of obtaining a higher tier when crafting, enchanting, or creating a Frozen Vampire Tear from yourself.

• New wall ornament buildable variants Including straight, rounded, and door-frame compatible pieces.
