upgrade your items or skills

- Calling upon the crowd with high energy has a chance that they will throw a god statue to activate their power
- Roguelike, if you die you have to start over
- Use the Bestiarius unique "release pet" ability to send your pets to attack the nearest enemy
- Added 5 new achievements for the tournament
