Codex 0.1

Each region has an area level. Common monsters spawn at it, elites and guardians one level above, and the boss at the level in the last column. When you leave, the region is kept for 15 minutes the way you left it.

The maximum level is 100. Monsters far above or below your level give less experience: there is a safe gap that grows with your level, and outside it experience drops fast.

Life and mana grow every level, and attributes add on top: Strength and Will give life, Intelligence gives mana. The table shows the class curve only, without attributes or items. The level 15 evolutions (Knight, Shaman and Necromancer) are not available yet.

Each point is worth what the table shows, with the same wording as the character sheet. The tree has Remembered Attribute nodes: 5 points in the attribute of your choice. Two-attribute weapons ask for 60% of the requirement in each; jewellery asks for nothing.

Grade is internal: the game shows the item level. Normal items have no sockets; the rest open rune sockets by grade, and Ivo the smith opens the missing ones.

Each weapon has a base attack time and five speed thresholds. Crossing each one raises the attack's stage. Speed comes from affixes, talents and Dexterity, with diminishing returns (constant 120). The average damage is that of a Normal weapon at grades I, V and X.

Flasks do not refill over time. Each sip uses 10 charges and restores part of your maximum life or mana over a few seconds. Torches (once per expedition) and Vharan's well fill everything; swapping flasks does not refill them.

• Normal: no affixes.
• Magic: one or two affixes (45% chance of two), at most 1 prefix and 1 suffix.
• Rare: 3 to 6 affixes depending on item level, up to 3 prefixes and 3 suffixes. Scarce early, common near level 40.
• Unique: fixed affixes and a power of its own. Every boss has a signature Unique.
• Set: pieces that add bonuses at 2, 4 and 6 pieces.

There is no Legendary rarity. Magic find is capped at 300%.

Coins rework items and are named after memories, never after people. Right-click the coin, then the item. Uniques and set pieces do not take coins. The Scar of the Void has four outcomes of 25% each. Coins cannot be sold.

Prices start from a base value that grows with level. Buying by rarity: Normal ×1 · Magic ×4 · Rare ×20. Selling: Normal ×0.05 · Magic ×0.15 · Rare ×0.5 · Unique ×1.5. At Brenn's gamble, rarity is decided on the spot: Magic 75% · Rare 22% · Unique 2% · Set 1%. Swapping a Remembered Attribute costs 25% of the price to forget a node. In the table, level is the item's for buying and opening sockets, and yours for gambling, forgetting and restocking.

• Stun: only a direct hit taking 20% of a monster's life (35% on an elite) stuns, for 0.25 s to 0.60 s, followed by 1.5 s of immunity. Bosses never.
• Block: shields only, 15% to 25% by grade, up to 50%. A blocked hit loses 50%.
• Evasion: only against monsters' physical hits, up to 45%.
• Talents: each boss defeated for the first time gives +1 point, once per hero.

Six pieces count: helm, pauldrons, chest, gloves, belt and boots. Only the green piece belongs to the set; other versions of the same item are common bases.

Pendants hung on the belt that fire on their own when the trigger happens and spend charges. The belt sets the hooks: Normal 1, Magic or Rare 2, Unique 3. Kills recharge them: +1 common, +3 elite, +10 boss.

Each rune takes one free socket. The effect depends on where it sits.
