World and exploration
World and combat
Currency drops
Changed- Currency from regular creatures drops eight times less often than before: the same 25% base as equipment, then halved. Boss tables are unchanged.
Light and magic armour
Changed- Armour that gives evasion or rune shield now also keeps 30% of its original armour.
Monolith visages
Changed- A monolith gives one Visage of the First Warden for each of the last three waves fully cleared (waves 8, 9 and 10), up to 3 per monolith.
- Previously there was one visage, only for killing the last wave's champion.
- Corrupted monoliths give corrupted visages the same way.
Thorns hit effect
New- Thorns damage now has a visual and sound effect at the target.
- The effect is larger on a parry riposte.
Altars of Power on the map
New- The first kill of a biome's boss marks that biome's Altar of Power on your map.
- Once per player in each biome, with a notification. Players who already killed the boss get the mark when they enter the world.
Aftershock and parry effects
Changed- Aftershock now looks like a troll's ground slam.
- Stunning Answer: a parry flash on each staggered enemy instead of one shared wave.
- Crush no longer shows Eikthyr's lightning; it uses the Elder's stomp.
Evasion and enemy accuracy
Changed- Enemies now have accuracy that grows with the creature's level and stars. Your chance to evade depends on your evasion rating against that accuracy, up to 75%.
- There is no plain chance to evade any more: old evasion chance lines became increased evasion rating.
- New item properties: evasion rating, and increased evasion rating while moving, at low stamina and while sneaking.
- The defence tooltip shows enemy accuracy here and your expected chance to evade them.
Shield bash
Changed- Shield bash is the shield's own strike on the alternative attack button.
- Thorns on block from items answer both held blocks and parries.
Interface and usability
Interface
Jewel in hand
New- While a jewel is on the cursor, the tree highlights your sockets and dims the rest.
Relic Passage icon
New- The Runecarver option Relic Passage has its own icon.
Hardened Fist
Changed- The fist notable previously named Giant’s Blow is now Hardened Fist; its former name belongs to the keystone. Affixes and mastery choices are unchanged.
Unarmed wording
Changed- «Unarmed» is now one term everywhere instead of «bare hands» and «barehanded».
- Unarmed-skill stats that also cover claws now read «fist damage» and «fist attack speed».
Endurance wording
Changed- Old «Steadfast» and «Steadfastness» texts now say Endurance.
- Endurance is now one word everywhere in English: one place still said Resilience.
Vietnamese translation
Changed- The Vietnamese community translation is refreshed; changed lines it does not cover yet show in English.
Changing options in the tree
Changed- LMB on a queued path or mastery node reopens the choice: another option is free while the points are not applied yet.
- On a taken node the option change is marked in the Apply bar with its respec price and paid when you apply. RMB cancels it.
Tree search
Changed- Tree search matches only names, property lines and mastery options.
Tooltips and messages
Changed- The monolith tooltip always shows the rune renewal line, greyed out until the monolith is drained.
- The missing-object warning explains that it is harmless: the world holds objects of a mod that is not installed.

- Common items now show a message instead of nothing happening.
Thorns

Enemy rune ward
Fixed- An enemy's rune ward holds back only stagger; ailment build-up goes through as usual.
Main Tree

Eitr
Fixed- Restored matching icons for two compact Eitr branches in STR–INT and DEX–INT.

Fixed- Corrected the category, names and missing icons of the compact hybrid branch in STR–INT.
Spell Echo
Fixed- Staff of Frost and other held stream staves no longer keep firing on their own long after release with charged casts.

- The monolith loot share no longer cuts guard trophies.
