Rules that win runs

  • Dash through attacks, not away. Late sideways dashes beat charges.
  • Status = buildup bar. Per-hit fills to 100%; decays between hits; can’t re-apply while active.
  • Bleeding enemies take ~+50 bonus physical damage per hit.
  • Dual wield: two of the same family (swords/daggers/wands) attack together, −40% damage and status per weapon.
  • Unspent gold dies with you. Blessings > gear > savings.
  • Potions at half HP, not at the grave.
  • Unknown nodes are fights, not loot.
