Roadmap

The public page no longer describes a duel — it shows one. The two champions trade blows on a loop, from the same seed printed beneath it, so you can reproduce that exact fight yourself. With reduced motion on, it holds still.

When someone deletes their account their duels no longer vanish with them: the fight stays, with both builds and the result, and only their name goes. A link you shared keeps working — and now unfurls with a card showing both champions and who won.

The black market can be filtered by item, gem and minimum rarity, and it searches both halves of a listing: who is offering it and who is looking for it. The board loads more as you scroll.

Trade equipment and gems with other players: offer what you have spare, say what KIND of thing you want, and whoever holds it takes the deal. No money, no bidding, no prices. Catalysts, essence and BP are never traded — and rank and season rewards are neither sold nor traded: they are earned by playing.

After the last canto the trail keeps going: every 80 deeds the path loops again and pays a material pack. Dust almost every time, and a gem in a little over one loop in four. No catalysts and no essence — this does not shorten the climb to +9 or +10.

Mage and Channeler hit harder while they climb: a large early boost that fades on its own to exactly zero at level 20. On the ladder's fourth rung the gap between the best-off class and the worst-off went from 24 points to 5. At high levels the Mage is still behind — that belongs to the design arc we already promised you, before launch.

Several affixes on Mage and Channeler items did nothing at all — measured: removing them changed not one duel. That budget is armor now, and both casters gain between 8 and 18 points depending on level. The Rogue trades some evasion for real armor while staying the one who hits fast and folds fast. And if an item subtracted armor until you went below zero, you used to take 25% MORE damage: that was our bug, and it is gone.

Warrior and Rogue no longer hit the same way twice: their skills read the fight — the pain you have taken, the riposte window, the statuses you chain. And every class now starts with a hand-authored spread of skill points you can change whenever you like. Between levels 14 and 17 the gap between the strongest and weakest class narrows sharply. Mage and Channeler arrive in the next design arc, before launch: their axes work, but they lift the classes already ahead, so they are being redesigned with what we learned.

Every time you pay for something — forging, reforging, milling, trading BP for materials — a line is kept with the date, how much it was, and which item it was on. There is no screen for it yet: for now it is an internal tool, so we can answer you with data. Every movement carries its line — what you buy, and what the game hands you too. And if you delete your account, those lines are anonymised.

Rank and season rewards are never sold nor traded — they are earned by playing. Everything else is bought with BP. And the material pack states its own contents: 20 essence, 60–180 dust, 2 gems guaranteed, 8.4% a catalyst.

Ladder wins drop material packs — dust, essence and punches for your forge. Grey fights drop nothing: win where the challenge is real.

The front page now tells you what happens to an item you look after: the three forge bands, what each costs, and the real history of a weapon that reached +9 — fall included. The numbers come from the game, so if we change the forge, that page changes by itself.

The forge no longer destroys items, at any level. If an attempt fails, the item drops one level and loses what that level gave it — but it stays yours. Risk starts at +5 and protection prevents the fall up to +8; above that, climbing again is the work.

Every forge level really rolls: several of the things the item already is go up, and no level ever gives nothing. The item keeps what came out at each one, so two +7s are not the same item — and you can see why. Up top, at +9 and +10, there is no net left: a break knocks you down a level and cannot be protected against.

Every skill now shows its growth ladder: how much damage it deals at each level of investment, with your current point marked, what the next one would buy, and the breakpoint drawn where it fires.

What you earn is not lost because you slept, you can select several items at once to mill, and the theorycraft tools are free for everyone.

Every screen that used to leave you stuck now offers the next step: attack from the leaderboard, exit a pack into your stash, see how an item is obtained, and test builds against real opponents.

Protect an item so nothing can destroy it, see what you risk before forging, and compare before and after on every reforge.

The bell takes you straight to the item with an apply button, and the store tells you before you pay that you apply the look yourself.

When you apply an aspect and that combination has no sprite yet, the game generates one and it shows up in combat.

One page with everything you bought and its status — it does not depend on the store being open.

See what time your stamina refills, and the first-steps list folds away instead of vanishing.
