HUNTERVANIA – COMBAT, CORRUPTION & ATMOSPHERE UPDATE
This update focuses on improving weapon progression, combat clarity, late-game balance, Corruption choices, and main map.
WEAPONS & COMBAT
Completely rebuilt weapon system, added synergies
* Improved several weapon upgrade paths with more meaningful bonuses and stronger power spikes.

* Expanded weapon synergy interactions, including Shard Harvest for the Grenade and Flying Blade.
* Improved visual feedback for special weapon effects, marks, embedded shards, and additional attacks.
*Added different font colors for different damage types
* Reviewed weapon tags and their interactions with Corruption upgrades.
