Welcome back agents, I hope you've had fun with the different floor sizes but now it seems that these Ghostly foes have learned some new tricks. The focus of this update is to make the combat more exciting by preventing a 'One size fits all' build. Enemies will now have strategies they're stronger against and can do things at the start of a fight, start of the their turn, Enraging when lowered to 50%HP and finally when you get a Lucky Turn. There's also 9 new enemies (even if they do have placeholder art). 3 regular enemies and 6 Comboonation enemies, a mix of two other enemies. A bit like a miniboss, challenging but offers greater rewards.
I haven't properly tweaked the enemy dice or HP values as I want to see what sort of challenge these updated enemies add to the game. Balance can come later!
