Backpack Battles Patch 0.7.6

Hi everyone,

Hope you had a great week! This update adds the Corrupted Armor, a craftable item! Of course, it generates Block at the start of battle. Then, it shoves debuffs from you to your opponent on cooldown. Also, when surrounded by Dark items, it gives the debuffs on your opponent a protection chance - so your opponent might fail to cleanse the debuffs.

The patch also includes some small quality-of-life changes, such as the combat log now tracking the Block items generated over the battle. There are balancing changes as always, check them out below or in the in-game patch notes.

A quick reminder that Backpack Battles is going into Early Access on March 8th, 2024 - which is in 40 days! So don't forget to wishlist it!
