Krypt Rebalance
- The Krypt has been rebalanced to greatly decrease the time required to complete a Krypt run, especially on the harder difficulties. All Krypts difficulties are now one floor, with the floor’s size based on the chosen difficulty. The number of battles, Krypt Hearts, and Fight Rewards have been rebalanced with this update to take into account the new shorter time investment for all difficulties to be on par with the previous version.
- Krypt Badge requirements have been updated to take into account this rebalance.
Note: These changes will go into effect on December 18th when the Krypt refreshes.
