1.1.2 — Relic Rebalance & Smoothness Pass

Player feedback was clear: by the mid-late waves a fully-drafted

build was steamrolling everything. This patch trims every relic

15-25% so the climb stays a climb, while a complete kit still

feels like a power fantasy — just one you can lose.

⚔ RELICS REBALANCED

• KEEN, QUICK, IRON, ISKIN now cap at 2 stacks (was 3) — more

variety, less mono-stack dominance

• Stat boosts trimmed: KEEN +10% → +7% damage per stack;

IRON +18 → +12 max HP; GLASS +35% → +22% damage

• Proc relics (ARC, CHAIN, FROST, BURN, WRATH, THORN, WALL) now

trigger slightly smaller and less often — still satisfying

• Mythics dialed back: SPIRE, PHOENIX, OVRDRV, BLOOD, BARRG

are still build-defining picks, just no longer instant-wins

A fully kitted run is now ~50% of pre-patch ceiling. Still

powerful. No longer trivializing.
