Stat Squishing

Number Reductions

Starting with this patch, we've squished the numbers for character stats in order to combat future power creeps and insane stat inflation introduced in Patch 5.0.

This squish has an effect on all playable characters, equipment, items, and so on.
We haven't touched I.C item stats or their set bonuses. Additionally, percentage increase (e.g phys damage %), Final Damage, and Critical stats have not been altered.
Monster stats have also been rebalanced to accommodate this change.

Our goal is for players to have the same "impact" on boss health during gameplay, but the numbers displayed will be lower visually.

Of course, do not expect everything to be perfect in our first iteration, we encourage players to thoroughly test their classes and provide feedback on Discord.

Adventurer's Bounty

Starting this update, "Side Content" has been renamed to "Adventurer's Bounty" to better suit Osiris along with upcoming bosses. Welcome to the first iteration of the Bounty Shop.

A new Deckard NPC has been added to Saint Haven by the Trading House area.
Clearing Osiris also grants specific "Bounty Points" drops, on top of the usual Gold Vouchers.

By speaking to Deckard in Saint Haven, you can exchange your Bounty Points for some sweet goodies, including exclusive Hat cosmetics and custom titles.

Rewards

The amount of Bounty Points as well as their rarity dropped depends on the Labyrinth difficulty on which Osiris is defeated on. LB1 is like a walk in the park, while LB8 requires coordination, a proper composition, and well geared characters.

Difficulty	Item Drop Amount
Labyrinth Floor 1	250 Bounty Pts
Labyrinth Floor 2	500 Bounty Pts
Labyrinth Floor 3	750 Bounty Pts
Labyrinth Floor 4	1,000 Bounty Pts
Labyrinth Floor 5	1,500 Bounty Pts
Labyrinth Floor 6	2,500 Bounty Pts
Labyrinth Floor 7	3,750 Bounty Pts
Labyrinth Floor 8	5,000 Bounty Pts

* Reward eligibility will be reset every Saturday at 9:00 a.m. (Server Time) or any forced nest resets, if applicable.
