Season 6: Elemental Reckoning - Wipe and Updates

Season 6: Elemental Reckoning - Wipe and Updates

This patch, along with the mid season reset, is focused on improving the overall balance of the game. We've rebalanced every offhand, including toning down modifiers that had the potential to completely dominate the meta. Our goal was to bring the overall power level much closer together so more offhands remain viable throughout the entire season. We've also significantly reduced monster health across the game to create a smoother progression curve and make your power growth feel much more meaningful as you advance.

The gates will close in approximately 30 minutes, and the season reset will begin at 3:30 PM EST. Thank you all again for your patience and support.

General Changes:

• Drastically reduced Enemies HP across the whole game

• Drastically reduced offhand upgrading cost
