Hello! Today Im here to announce the second official content update for Seeds of Calamity!

Unlock the Mystery! In early winter you should receive a letter from Erik asking for your help in opening some ancient ruins. These ruins unlock the Challenge dungeon. Please note, you must also have completed Eriks quest The Start of a Discovery and have repaired the bridge south of your farm to receive the letter.

Test your Skills! The Challenge dungeon is a gauntlet designed to test your mettle against Elite foes.

• You will have to fight through 10 rooms plus a final boss to get a reward.

  [/*]

• Once rewarded, you can choose to continue fighting or teleport out.

  [/*]

• There are 3 bosses in total.

  [/*]

• Defeat them all to receive the final reward!

New Elixirs! One of the rewards you can receive in the Challenge dungeon are new recipes for better health and combat elixirs.[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/41312751/475ae2a307cb4beea08141e5f4ca9ca8473f3081.png\"][/img]

Combat Rebalance! I have made all enemies in the game (not just in the Challenge dungeon) hit harder and have more health!

Ive gotten a lot of feedback that the combat is fun but not very challenging. My goal for the combat was to make it feel approachable but I made it so approachable as to not be very satisfying. I hope with this change it will feel like more of an accomplishment to defeat each level of the dungeon.

So this is a friendly reminder to take some healing food items with you the next time you go dungeon diving. :)
