Gear Ladder Fixes, Stacking Backpacks & QoL
This update corrects how armour-set bonuses stack, makes backpack perks
add up, and smooths out crafting, selling, and the Cremation panel.
⚖️ Balance & Gear
- Set bonuses now apply only your highest equipped tier — each tier's listed number is the full bonus. Previously the tiers secretly stacked and multiplied, which let lower-tier sets out-scale Apex and even Mythic gear. Note: if you were benefiting from the stacked bonus, your damage drops to the listed value.
- Craftable void sets pulled just below the Apex World Boss sets, so boss drops remain best-in-slot.
- Your active set damage bonus now displays on Max Hit, so the % is visible.
✨ Quality of Life
- Backpack perks now stack across every pack you own — the full set grants +12h offline cap, +20% gold, and +10% skilling XP (previously only the highest-tier pack's perk applied).
- Crafting & smithing auto-craft finishes the whole stack instead of leaving the final item to be made manually.
- Auto-Dose only triggers while you're in combat, so it no longer wastes potions while idle or skilling.
🔧 Bug Fixes
- Hover and inspect sell prices now show the true net you receive after the merchant tax (they previously showed the pre-tax price). The tax now applies consistently to all items, including cheap stacks.
- The Blacksmith refine screen was over-reporting weapon attack — it now matches the gear tab.
- The Cremation panel no longer flickers a hovered item while another skill gathers in the background.
