- New stats: Crit Chance, Crit Damage, Move Speed, Life on Kill, Life Leech, Item Find, Divine Damage, Umbral Damage. All are live:
- crits roll in DamageEffect (×1.5 + Crit Damage);
- Divine/Umbral damage adds to every hit;
- leech and life-on-kill go through SkillCaster;
- move speed through PlayerMotor; item find through LootDropper.
- Bases (Act1ItemsBuilder): 12 new ones (21 total), 2–3 per slot, each with a level requirement (1–10):
- Doru, Long Doru, Bronze Knife, Sacrificial Blade, Bronze-faced Aspis;
- Bronze Helm, Cuirass, Vambraces, Greaves;
- War Belt, Bronze Pendant, Signet Ring.
- Equipping checks the level; the tooltip shows "Requires level N" (red when not met).
- Affixes: 8 new ones (17 total):
- prefixes: Keen, Savage, Radiant, Shadebound, Reaping;
- suffixes: of the Runner (feet only), of the Leech, of Fortune.
- Tooltips show each affix's tier "(T2)".
- Loot tiers:
- Zone A trash: low bases only, up to T1.
- Zone B trash: new LT_Act1_ZoneB_Trash with every base, up to T2 (spawner
_lootOverride). - Minibosses, chests, the Warden and Kerdon: up to T2.
- Polydegmon: up to T3.
- Heroic items get a name and a line of lore ("Doru of Thria"; "Carried in the retreat from Thria, the year the wells failed."). Both are picked from the item's own rolls, so they're stable. The lore strings are DRAFT (Claude).
- Relic rarity (orange): the Rarian Sheaf, a 15% drop from Polydegmon, worn in the new Charm slot:
- +8 Life on Kill;
- Reaping: ×1.3 damage below 35% health;
- Procession: +5% per quick kill, up to 5 stacks, gone 3 s each, bosses don't count;
- First Fruit: 25% chance a kill leaves a grain mote that heals 8%.
- Canon flavour shipped verbatim.
- Consumables: Ambrosia (full heal, 60 dr) and Lethe Water (respec, 120 dr). Click in the bag to use. Kerdon always stocks both; his counter now holds 9.
- Tests: SheafProcession, Heroic lore determinism, Relic name and flavour, level requirement, fixed price, relic price.
- Compile: Unity was in Play mode, so it was checked with dotnet against the Unity projects; fixed one struct error (DamageInstance). Tests run once the editor is closed.
- Deferred: Forgemaster, Occultist, Sigils, attributes, Footing, Zealous, Nectar.
