Developer Notes (Click to show)

We decided to make the Sea Dragon feel more at home underwater by improving their mining speed and movement control while underwater. ~Dragon

Sea Dragon's healing felt a little underwhelming, so we slightly increased its base numbers to add more weight to its stand-alone HPS. ~Dummy

🧟 Dungeon Changes 🧟

Outpost

Ancient Digsite

Developer Notes (Click to show)

The health reduction is to compensate for the Repeater nerf and to slightly reduce the duration of the boss fight at higher difficulties, as this dungeon already takes enough time to finish as it is. In addition, we have boosted the base rare drop count to account for this dungeon being of much higher difficulty than other dungeons. ~Dragon
