Equipment Rarity Update
The Item Rarity Update has arrived! Are you not fully sure yet what this feature is all about? We prepared a dedicated blog post for this Feature! Have a look!
UT Droprates
We mentioned in the producers letter the base drop rate of all UT items has been increased across the game, roughly doubling many drop rates (Some even more than double). This allows base versions of items to be even more common for players and also influences how often you will be seeing these enchanted items.
The Enchantment System has been overhauled, and along with it, a new face among the denizens of the Nexus. In this update, you’ll get to meet the new Enchanter and utilize his skills to upgrade and enchant your items to levels of perfection not possible until now.
Season 21: Blooming Oasis
Season 21 is upon us! Finish the newest Battle Pass, take part in the Crucible Challenge, and complete Missions. The first part of the Season is all about hunting flowers! This time, we will not be adding any Token-related Quests (We know, you will miss them) during the first month of the Season.
One of the drops that can be found in the first part of the season in the Realm and Dungeon events is reskinned equipment items! Specifically, reskins of Tier 13 weapons and armors, as well as a reskin of the Tier 6 ring.

Quality of Life and Balance
HP Scaling Changes
We changed how HP Scaling works in the game due to all the changes to items to make sure the new powers don’t end in the demise of the bosses in seconds. We might need some time to fully tweak the scaling.
Season Start Pop Up + Information Board
Now, when entering the Nexus for the first time in a season, a pop-up will appear highlighting the key elements and a summary of what can be found during the season!
Throughout the entire season, this can be revisited at any time through a new element in the Nexus: the Information Board.
New / Reworked UT Items
Some previously event-exclusive items have become available as core content drops in this update, and have received some balance changes and fixes. Any balance changes have also been applied to their original items, and they now belong in the respective dungeon collection of the new core items.
Maw of Malignance (from Perennial Cranium)
The Maw of Malignance drops from the Parasite Chambers as its 4th white bag drop, and has the following balance changes:
- Damage: 150 -> 300
- Range: 3.5 -> 5.0
- MP Cost: 115 -> 100
We were able to apply some fixes made possible in the Spectral Penitentiary update to fix a pesky “untargeting” bug that was affecting this item as well as Tome of the Mushroom Tribes.
Bubblegum Bucket (from Helm of the Swift Bunny)
The Bubblegum Bucket drops from the Candyland Hunting Grounds as its 2nd white bag drop, and has the following balance changes:
- Now additionally applies Healing on self for 4 seconds.
- DEF: 5 -> 10
- SPD: 5 -> 10
- VIT: 0 -> 10
As the sole speed-focused Helm in the game, the item needs a large stat boost to compensate for its limited niche. We’ll monitor the state of the item’s use and adjust if needed.
S.H.E.A.T.H. (from Sheath of Thunderous Rites)
The S.H.E.A.T.H. drops from High Tech Terror as its 5th white bag drop. The Sheath of Thunderous Rites no longer involves Legendary forge material in its recipe.
No balance changes were needed as the item was clearly the most desirable from its original release batch. We hope this will be a staple pick for Kensei to bring into the endgame.
Vision of Draconis (from Forbidden Artifact)
The Vision of Draconis drops from the Lair of Draconis as its 6th white bag drop, and has the following balance changes:
- MP Cost: 220 -> 200
Both item tooltips now mention that it creates a summon. This item should help fill a progression gap that Mystic has been struggling to bridge between her unsatisfying early game and the endgame power spike of Primal Arcana.
Echoes Prism (rework sourced from Corsair’s Crown Jewel)
Echoes Prism has been completely reworked to take on the effect of the Corsair’s Crown Jewel, with the following balance changes:
- MAXHP: 30 -> 40
- DEF: 3 -> 4
- DEX: 3 -> 4
- MP Cost: 120 -> 110
It’s not an easy decision to rework the effect of an item, especially one with a unique effect like this one. However, we couldn’t continue to support its play pattern with future content demanding more sophisticated level design, such as the upcoming Ice Citadel and Grave of Eden. With the positive reception of the Vindication Prism, we decided to unload its effect onto the Crystal Cavern UT to give Trickster one solid power boost for the endgame. The buffs are rather minor for the time being, but we will continue to monitor the state of the item.
Other Item Balance
We have made a few more item balance changes in advance of the equipment rarity update, mostly just to certain scaling values that would be too high with the new available stats from the update.
- Seal of Blasphemous Prayer wismod removed and invulnerability duration set to 2.2
- Quiver of Shrieking Spectres spd scaling reduced from 12 to 6
- Midnight Star spd scaling reduced from 18 to 12, base damage increased from 375-475 to 400-500
- Overwhelming axehead atk scaling reduced from 6 to 5
- Ballistic Star atk scaling reduced from 6 to 5
- Double Vision Darts vit scaling reduced from 25 to 21
- Huntsman’s Volley wis scaling reduced from 5 to 3.5
- Beehemoth Quiver dex Scaling reduced from 16 to 13
- Kogbold Cower Shield def scaling reduced from 8.5 to 7.5
These changes are preventative and not encompassing all ability changes that may need to be done, we will be observing the balance of various abilities and other items in the new update and potentially making more balance changes in the future.
Small Quality of Life Updates
Some other quality of life elements have been implemented:
- Change Exaltation banners to sprites that match the exaltation stat they give.
- Add the Kensei class to Guill’s “random” response.
- Make green potions in Mad Lab bigger and flash before exploding.
- Make Tlatoani’s Shroud drop in white bags instead of cyan bags.
- Remove Woodland Labyrinth from the recommended dungeons for Life potions.
- Shorten the Puppet Master’s introduction sequence from 12 seconds to 6 seconds
- Players should now only spawn on the south side of High Tech Terror.
- Bonus Consumable modifiers should properly give the dungeon’s special consumable instead of nearly always giving Health Potions.
