Hornslack Ruins Update

Today’s update mostly spruces up the Hornslack Ruins area. There is a new enemy, the Crusher, and a few new levels. Other levels have been improved in their rewards, notably the Garden. This has long been a stinker of a room, so hopefully the changes make it into an great room. Let me know what you think.

I’m building up to fully releasing the next area: The Halls of Shadow. So about half of my time is currently spent working on that, the other half on weekly content. So apologies if this update is a bit smaller than usual. It will be worth it, I think.

Balance

• The Gardener’s fruits have been significantly improved
  
• Elemental Whirlwind amulet adds more damage for each ailment now (Yggdrasil)
  
• Observatory has fewer waves, with each one being larger
  

Misc.

• Reworked how Rarity Chance works, and increased value from Merchant’s Boots
  
• Circular rooms have a more even distribution of doodads. Thanks to the math gang: November, Evarika, and Pell
  
• Many item rarities have been shifted
  

Additions

• New Ruins levels: Scholarium, Bombardment, Innocent’s Folly, Garrison
  
• New Ruins Enemy: Cretin Crusher
