Embersong Alpha 0.3.4 — Balance & Equipment Hotfix

This update focuses on fixing several major equipment and combat-scaling problems discovered after 0.3.3.

Highlights:

• Rebalanced Apotheosis affix stats to prevent extreme armor/stat rolls.
• Unmanaged random gear can no longer gain unintended effective sockets.
• Reduced Embersong boss armor scaling from 2.5× to 1.5× while keeping HP and damage scaling unchanged.
• Fixed Ascension Forge upgrades for enchanted and Iron’s Spells–inscribed equipment.
• Ascension now preserves spell-container data, enchantments, sockets, affixes and other supported item investment.
• Added proper tier-scaled class bonuses to armor sets for Warrior, Mage, Rogue, Cleric, Druid and Bard.
• Higher-tier armor now provides meaningfully stronger class stats instead of tiny flat bonuses.
• Added protection against extreme Relics / Artifacts / More Relics / RAR-Compat combat scaling.
• Runaway Attack Speed is now capped at 4.0 while armed and 7.0 while unarmed for affected combat-relic builds.
• Added emergency melee damage/burst limits to stop broken accessory combinations from reaching thousands of damage in seconds.
• External Relic/Artifact proc damage remains heavily compressed under Embersong balance rules.
• Improved combat diagnostics for identifying future broken accessory/mod interactions.
• No world reset, player reset, or inventory wipe required.

Core / Armory: unchanged — continue using Embersong Core 0.3.2 and Embersong Armory 0.1.1.
