Ember Moth, Phoenix Brood and improved health bars
Ember Moth / Phoenix Brood
- Ember Moth: a new Power Shard weapon with 20 ranks. Homing moths deal 12–70 impact damage and leave a burn dealing 20–60 total damage over 2 seconds.
- Phoenix Brood: upgrade MAX-rank Ember Moth at the Obelisk for 15,000 Coins and 12 Relic Shards. Each phoenix deals 200 impact damage and 140 total burn damage over 3 seconds.
- Both forms start with one projectile; Multishot and other projectile bonuses add more. The whole volley launches together from separate points near the hero. Cooldown reduction shortens the 3-second interval; Attack Speed increases flight speed.
- Moths seek visible enemies and retarget when necessary. Repeated hits refresh the strongest burn instead of stacking multiple burns, including hits from Mirror Image copies.
- New icons, animated wings, fiery trails, small impact explosions, sparks and dedicated sounds. Integrated into the Glossary, HUD, Run History and all 17 supported languages.
Health bars
- Retouched thin HP bars with an aged-gold frame, emerald remaining health and dark crimson missing health. The 100 segments and smooth damage/healing animations are retained.
- HP bars now follow the visible player or enemy animation frame, keeping a small gap beneath the body and active status effects. This fixes bars overlapping their own character during animation.
