Player Takeaway
Section titled “Player Takeaway”This patch makes ascension planning much more important. Starting resources and repeatable Tier 6 upgrades are stronger, Nauglamir becomes a real PP engine instead of only a gate artifact, and Alchemy becomes less punishing over long runs because the mithril cost rises more slowly.
