Weekly Update #1 - Spells, Poison, and QOL

[p]This past week I've released a few updates to finally bring in some new content and flesh out some cool builds.[/p][p]Here's all the patch notes, but if you'd like to discuss the game or post your armies try joining the Discord! [/p][p][/p]
New Content
[p]✦ Hoblin Chainmail (Common Item)[/p][p]✦ Rotten Meat (Uncommon Item)[/p][p]✦ Peasant Crown (Rare Item)[/p][p]✦ Rusty Ring (Rare Item)[/p][p]✦ Green Dragon Brazier (Uncommon Relic)[/p][p]✦ Snake Ring (Uncommon Relic)[/p][p]✦ Gobbo Flute (Rare Relic)[/p][p]✦ Poisoned Rework[/p]
  • [p]Poisoned is now stackable and deals 1 damage per each stack. This rework intends to address the problem that stemmed from having multiple sources apply poison and there not being any real benefit to do so. Hopefully this will help make Poison builds a whole lot better and improve Grob's identity as a Soul. I intend to do the same to On Fire! as well.[/p]
[p]✦ Poison Cloud (Grobs Spell) now applies 10 stacks so it deals the same damage as before.[/p][p]✦ Contagious upgrade now applies 10 stacks of Poisoned when it spreads.[/p][p]✦ Twin Toxin upgrade damage 125 -> 175 [/p][p]✦ Reinforce now also gives +20 poison application.[/p][p]✦ Ragnorakian Zerkers[/p]
  • [p]Glory Upgrade reworked! (Now you’ll be choosing between short-term battle heals or long-term damage scaling.)[/p]
[p]✦ On Fire![/p]
  • [p]Now works just like Poisoned—fully stackable. (Expect synergy content updates soon.)[/p]
[p]✦ Elder Scale[/p]
  • [p]Now functions like Poisoned Dagger’s Envenomed trait.[/p]
[p]✦ Poison Dagger[/p]
  • [p]Replaced the Expunger trait with a new one: Envenomed[/p]
[p]✦ Status effect icons now show stack counts.[/p]
  • [p](Note: stacking lots of effects at once might look a bit janky. Let me know how if it looks bad.)[/p]
[p]✦ You can now hide the Upgrade UI.[/p][p]✦ Revitalize Reward [/p]
  • [p]Boss fights now reward you with Revitalize, which heals you back to full Will.[/p]
