Beta Branch Patch 1

Beta Branch Build:

Armorer- armors one unit per turn instead of requiring metallic spell casting.

Starfire- now redeals 100% of arcane damage to up to 4 adjacent enemies
Holy Fire - redeal 50%->100%
Holy Thunder - redeal 50%->100%

Hatebolts - now shoots bolts of either fire or dark damage, dealing only one damage type and no longer getting double scaling bonuses. Corrected max channel duration to 5 from 7 (tooltip said 5 all along).

Toxic Hatred upgrade reworked, poisons instead of dealing poison damage now.

Reworked spell upgrades for:

Underworld Passage
Dragon Roar
Ritual Of Revelation
Spikeball Factory
Spider Queen
Mystic Memory (spell reworked as well)
Lightning Storm
Floating Eye
Wyrm Eggs
Gates of Helheim
Horde of Halfmen
Searing Orb
Word of Undeath
Word of Chaos
Word of Beauty
Word of Madness
Word of Ice

Thunderblink upgrade- now targets nearest enemies in LOS as per tooltip instead of random enemies in LOS (as per tooltip)

Cleaned up some variant boss naming and tag stuff. Removed some restrictions on spawning somewhat redundant variants (ie burning fire imps can now spawn.) The name changes make it less silly.

Rift Rerolls are now cleared on entering a level

Equipment now shows extra tooltips like spells and passives

(This patch is a beta branch patch- it might be less stable than the patches that go to master. Balance may be questionable as well.
