it's really just that one new enemy that throws me off. i find the triple daggers hard to evade. this is probably where shields help but i'd rather have a melee/ranged setup

it's fantastic with something that can crit reliably from a distance. the nutcracker is a little slow for me. i think my favorite setup is freezing cone + anything that swings quickly and crits on frozen enemies

• + quality generates the item with 2 more gear levels than usual.
• ++ quality generates the item with 4 more gear levels than usual, and gives +1 to one scaling Stat .
• S quality generates the item with 6 more gear levels than usual, and gives either +2 to one scaling stat or +1 to two scaling stats (if the item's base form is two-color).

this happened to me in early access. when the 1.0 release hit i took the reset as opportunity to "re-roll" my weapon and power pool. the blood sword is pretty good with the right attribute rolls but otherwise it's not great

>7. HOW COME NOBODY TOLD ME the new suits didn't do anything?!

they provide variety for your eyes?
