Shades of Rayna Update 0.4.5 (06/01/2022)

Free Class Trials
Class Trial feature is in the game. You can play any class until after the first dragon fight, even if you don't own that paid class. When you return the base after the first dragon, you can't progress more unless you have the paid class (Ranger is always free). This will give you enough time to decide whether you liked the class or not.

Balance Overhaul
Whole game's balance has been adjusted. This has been done to remove circumstances where an unbalanced enemy oneshots you. Right now, if you can't farm a difficulty, it's not because of some enemies are totally overpowered but that difficulty is really difficult for your character and you need to upgrade more.

Effects Of Skills
Before, active skills of classes were useless until the mid-late endgame. They were only usable if you really upgraded that skill or worn certain gear sets. Right now, skills are realiable from the start of the game. The game is not a 'basic attack' heavy anymore, it's skill heavy.

Stat Changes - Grand Items Base Defences
Before, grand items (obsidian to exalted) did not give their base defence stats. After fixing this, I realized that Tier 1 to 10 items' stats were added multiple times. That's why when you equipped a grand item, your defence stat was shown as reduced. This is why it took relatively long to balance the game again, because the whole stat system was changed. Right now, if you open up your existing characters, you'll notice that some of the stats were reduced. Do not worry, they are the correct stats now and the game is balanced for those stats.

'Last Farewell' Enemy Mechanic
Some enemies make an attack even after their death now. Couple of enemies have this feature for testing purposes. More enemies might have their Last Farewell in the future. I'll note them in patch notes if it happens.
