Features
- New Feature: Alchemy System
- You can now enhance item stats via the Alchemy System.
- Choose out of 3 options:
- Add Additional Stat – Grants a new base or extra stat.
- Reroll Single Stat – Swap an existing stat (e.g., Strength → Agility).
- Enhance Stat Bonus – Increase the effectiveness of an existing stat (e.g., 0% → 60%).
- Requires a new reagent: Ethereal Essence
- Forgeable with 10 Ethershards
- Fully tradeable on the marketplace
- All options currently have equal cost: 1 Essence = 1 Try
- Item Power Display
- Items now display a Power Score in the bottom-right corner of their tooltip.
- Calculated by summing all stat bonuses, normalizing against the theoretical maximum for that item, and applying a rarity-based multiplier.
- Makes it significantly easier to compare items.
- New Currencies: Influence & Reach
- Influence: Earned as the inverse of burned Ethershards.
- Example: Forge 10 Essences with 100 Ethershards → You gain 100 Influence
- Reach: Earned as the inverse of burned Crowns, divided by 100.
- Example: Upgrade a Hero for 1500 Crowns → You gain 150 Reach
- Neither currency exists onchain yet - they are calculated dynamically based on in-game burn amounts.
- Designed as future governance metrics:
- Influence reflects time and asset investment
- Reach reflects time and economic contribution
- New Starter Chests
- Introduced complete 14-piece Hero item sets tailored to three stat variants: Strength, Agility, and Intelligence.
- Each chest contains:
- 1x Two-Handed Weapon
- 1x One-Handed Weapon
- 1x Shield
- 1x Item for every inventory slot (except skin)
- Weapon types vary depending on the stat variant.
- Follows the same rarity chances as Battle Chests.
- Available in the Shop for 8000 Credits.
- Ideal for new players
