This update brings 5 new challenges to conquer; all come with new Steam achievements to obtain! Note that a sixth new challenge will be available when the Hero Leader Update releases.
One Man Army (unlocks at 3/8)
Team size is reduced to 1. Your hero can now equip up to 9 items and they gain a duplicate of each one of their passives. You choose the hero and they gain 600 Max HP and 20 Defense. Additionally in Act 1, your hero gains 100% Damage Dealt, but in ACT 3 enemies gain 115% Max HP.
Survivors (unlocks at 5/8)
All enemy damage taken is dealt over 4 seconds instead of being instant. When the fight starts, heroes gain 100% Damage Dealt, Life Steal and Magic Steal. Heroes convert all their Bonus Defense and Max HP at these ratios: 1% Life Steal per 3 Bonus Defense and 1% Magic Steal per 30 Bonus Max HP. Enemies have 250% more HP, and enrage right away when the first starts.
Timed Out (unlocks at 4/8)
Every 11 seconds, your highest DPS is stunned for the remainder of the fight. (This effect targets a different hero every 11 seconds and will occur up to twice per fight).
Hyper Surge (unlocks at 7/8)
The chance to find surge items, passives, heroes and origins is increased by 3x. The default Surge Cap is increased from 12 to 1000. Surge Slowdown penalty is reduced by 5 times. Enemies have +20% Max HP, Attack Damage and Spell Damage per Act.
Super Random (unlocks at 8/8)
Super Random is a challenge that completely alters how you play the game, and brings a lot of new things to the table! It's definitely one of the most unique challenges there is!
This challenge starts in endless, and within the first minutes, you will quickly assemble a full build. From there, it's all about improving your build against the odds of extreme RNG. You must reach Floor 35 to complete the challenge.
Here are the major differences in Super Random:
• Passive II and III are double passive (when the fight starts, your hero receives another copy of them).
• Items cannot be removed or swapped between heroes.
• For convenience, recipes are separated from heirlooms in this mode, in order to easily be able to lock them.
• Mythic Heirlooms (RED background) are a new addition in Super Random. They give twice as much stats as superior heirlooms. Mythic Heirlooms have a 10% chance to be rolled.
• Trophies are not used in this mode, gold is used for pretty much everything. You start with 1400 gold , and gain 800 gold every Shop.
The Shop:
• The Shop allows you to buy new full build heroes (4 recipes, 4 heirlooms, 5 passives (Passive II and III are double passive)).
• Buying a hero costs 20 gold.
• You can reroll the heroes in the shop to see a new set of 4 heroes.
• The Shop will offer your first 2 Origins and 10 Relics. You will then be able to reroll them.
• The price to do an action such as rerolling your Relics increases additively.
• All prices in the shop are RESET when entering a new shop.
The Hero Panel:
• In the hero panel, you can reroll your heroes build.
• Recipes, heirlooms and passives can be rerolled separately and you can lock any recipes or heirlooms which you do not want to be rerolled on a reroll.
• The price to do an action such as rerolling your Passives increases additively, is NOT reset and is specific to the type of action and to the hero.
• Tip: Since the price of heroes and initial rerolls are cheap, it is recommended to roll a bunch of heroes. Hard rerolling and focusing on a single hero can very quickly cost you a lot of gold.
