The first major update for Flux Ascendant is here. Fuse your cards into evolved
abilities, master new powers, re-roll your draft, and then take it all into a
brand-new endless mode where the only way out is how many you can cut down.
Certain cards were meant to be together. Carry the right active and passive at the
same time and the game will offer you their fusion: a single, evolved ability
that replaces the pair and inherits the best of both.
Planetary Bastion (Rock Throw + Gravity Well) : three asynchronous rings of orbiting rock grind down anything that drifts too close, and you keep Gravity Well's pickup magnet.
Glacier Carousel (Ice Shard + Ice Sprint) : Ice Shard now fires in a full 360° spiral (amplified by Multishot and Water mastery) while you keep Ice Sprint's speed.
Ember Sunburst (Fireball + Ember Shield) : every pulse of your ember aura releases a pinwheel of fireballs.
Chaos Apocalypse (Chaos Bolt + Multishot) : keeps the chaos-bolt barrage, and every other weapon you fire spits out extra homing bolts.
Chain Lightning (Thunder Strike + Conductivity) : every projectile arcs a chain of lightning between enemies (more hops at higher tiers, scales with Multishot), with a fiery burst on the first strike.
Karmic Calm (Burning Inside + Healing Rain) : our first passive + passive fusion: a steady heal of 1% max HP every 2s, and every 30s a wave of calm vaporizes the lesser corrupted around you.
Three new cards join the pool , two of them double as combo ingredients above.
Earthquake (Earth, active) : a ground-pounding AoE pulse that shakes the corrupted around you. Radius and damage grow with tier.
Burning Inside (Fire, passive) : high risk, high reward: it burns you from within (1% max HP per tick, yes, it can kill you), but every few stacks it erupts in a fire explosion that scorches everything nearby.
Ice Sprint (Water, passive) : a permanent speed boost that scales with level, trailing ice shards behind you as you run.
Don't settle for a bad hand. Unlock the Librarian's re-rolls back at the base and
bank a handful per run, spend one to regenerate your current card offer.
A new portal appears at the base once you finish the game for the first time. Beyond it the dark mage hoards his fallen followers ,
an endless tide of the corrupted, clawing to break loose.
No victory, only the hunt: There is no boss to end it. You survive as long as you can and count every kill.
The 20-minute corruption: The corruption spares no one: with every passing moment it devours the life you can hold, shrinking your usable HP until nothing is left to give. Stall and it claims you anyway , there is no turtling here.
Every kill counts: The fallen still feed your Mastery, bosses included, so even a doomed run makes you permanently stronger.
Chase your best wave: Your furthest run is tracked , how deep can you go before the Rift takes you?
Good luck out there. Cut down as many as you can before the corruption claims you.
