BALANCE
- Numerous tweaks to various items’ stats*.

- Reduced most weapons’ penalty to Skills Energy Cost*.
- Rather than being an universal stat, Bleed Resistance from armor now works as it was originally supposed to, providing its benefits only to specific body parts.
- Added Bleed Resistance to most pieces of armor*.
- Certain stats are now less impacted by the Dual-Wielding penalty.

As a baseline, a character with unmodified stats will need a buff from three runic boulders to raise the Petrification chance to 100%.

* - these changes won’t affect already saved items.
