Greetings, Warriors! It’s time for Gameplay and Mechanics! Today we want to talk about [b]progression and power ups[/b]. It’s very important to provide a sense of constant evolution during the game, we know it - that’s why we are putting extra care in our Character Growth system. Make sure to properly explore the [b]Equinox Cathedral[/b] - the main hub of the game - and check out all the ways to further empower our Ashram champions! The first one is [b]Cards[/b], of course! Namely, we are talking about [b]Hero Cards[/b], so cards that are specific to each of our player characters - they are tailored around their mechanics and keywords, and [b]will always be available to you when you are building your decks[/b]. [b]Every time you come back to the Cathedral after a successful mission, you’ll unlock a brand-new set of powerful Hero Cards[/b] varying in skills, rarity and cost. Don't be afraid to try different, unexpected combinations: it might hold the key to Victory!

These precious resources [b]will be spent in the Talents section to grant powerful active and passive abilities[/b]. You will also be able to [b]improve your basic stats[/b] such as maximum HP and Shields. You can also [b]save loadouts and reset skill points[/b] with no costs attached!

Here is where you will [b]unlock a variety of helpful perks[/b], such as improving the effectiveness of your [b]healing items, adding extra slots for rare cards[/b] in your deck and so on! These upgrades are extremely impressive and can only be obtained with [b]Dark Bones[/b]. This currency is strictly related to the most [b]difficult challenges [/b]you can face in the game - at the start of a dungeon you will be able to select special conditions like “Armor gained in this depth is halved”: [b]this will reward you with a higher number of Dark Bones compared to other easier challenges[/b] (or no challenges selected at all). [b]This doesn’t mean you will never obtain Dark Bones if you plan to play the game at normal difficulty[/b] - but the more you dare, the more you will be rewarded!
