⚔️ Combat Systems

Defense Rework — New Hyperbolic Damage Reduction

Defense has been completely rebuilt from the ground up.

The old segmented scaling curve has been removed and replaced with a level-coupled hyperbolic formula.

New Formula

DR=\frac{Defense}{Defense+K\times(AttackerLevel+100)}}

What Changed

• Defense now scales smoother at all progression levels

• Tank builds scale harder into endgame

• Attacker level now directly affects mitigation

• Flat defense is now significantly more valuable

• Defense caps increased for every combat role

Defense Cap Changes

Result

• Early-game tanks are less immortal

• Mid-game defense spikes are smoother

• Endgame tanks become true raid frontliners

• Defense stacking no longer hard-falls off after curve breakpoints

Damage Pipeline Rework

Damage is no longer a single multiplier stage.

Combat now uses:

1. Percent scaling

2. Flat-stat injection

3. Conversion scaling

4. Critical scaling

5. Passive bonuses

6. Class weapon scaling

7. Buff multipliers

8. Final true-damage additions

New Total Attack Formula

TotalATK=(WeaponBase\times WeaponBonus)\times(1+\frac{StatMod}{100})+FlatStat

Major Changes

• Physical damage routes through Strength

• Magical/elemental damage routes through Sorcery

• New flat-stat stage added after % scaling

• Weapon classes now heavily influence scaling behavior

• UI now shows real-time total ATK breakdowns

🧬 Race Rework — 71 Races Retuned

All race stats migrated from multiplier-based scaling into flat stat values.

Old System

• 1.15 Strength

• 0.90 Defense

• 1.30 Haste

New System

• +15 Strength

• +80 Defense

• +130 Haste

This dramatically improves:

• Build readability

• Stat balancing

• Damage predictability

• Future scaling control

Highest Race Ceilings

Notable Race Changes

• Glass-cannon races now commonly sit at 0 base defense

• Tank races received massive flat-defense boosts

• Humans now properly gain Sorcery scaling

• Haste now uses a 100-point baseline system

Biggest Winners

• golem_prime

• dragonborn_alpha

• iceborn_frostlord

• celestial_supreme

• wraith_phantom_king

🛡️ Class Balance Changes

Every class family received innate-stat retuning.

Most offensive classes had:

• Strength reduced

• Sorcery reduced

• Haste reduced

Tank classes instead received:

• Massive defense scaling increases

Biggest Nerfs

• STR reduced roughly 40%

Duelist

• Haste reduced roughly 50%

Lost-Summon Scaling

Necromancer is now significantly stronger during prolonged fights and swarm attrition scenarios.

⚒️ Weapon System Overhaul

The weapon framework has been completely rewritten.

New Weapon Types

• Longsword

• Spellbook

• Wand

• Scythe

Parent Weapon Categories

Weapons now inherit from parent archetypes.

Examples:

• spellbook → staff

• longsword → sword

This allows:

• Shared scaling

• Shared class multipliers

• Cleaner addon support

• Easier future weapon expansion

Weapon Base Stat Scanner

A brand-new runtime system now automatically scans real weapon damage values directly from item JSONs.

The Scanner Now

• Reads actual BaseDamage values

• Detects physical vs magical damage share

• Canonicalizes swing archetypes

• Uses trimmed medians for stable balancing

• Automatically derives WeaponBase ATK

This removes massive manual balancing overhead.

🔮 Augment Rework — Flat Stat Migration

Most stat augments have been converted from percentage scaling into flat-stat channels.

New Flat Channels

• strflat_

• sorcflat_

• defflat_

• hasteflat_

Converted Augments

• Fortress

• Titan's Might

• Titan's Wisdom

• Goliath

• Predator
