Test New Items & Custom Rules Now on Beta Branch!

Hi everyone,

Its time for another beta branch with new content! There are 6 new items for you to test as well as some item reworks, new options for lobbies and custom unranked games, and a lot of fun little polish.

Please try out the new green selection box by right-clicking - it only selects items in your inventory instead of grabbing the bags. We also overhauled the tutorial hints, so don't be confused when the shopkeeper tells you something you already knew. (And let us know whether its working correctly!)

The Beta Branch

We have instructions on how to join the branch on our Discord server. Please keep in mind that the goal of the beta branch is to find bugs and issues! This patch is planned to go to main branch on February 14th, as usual with balance adjustments that are not yet in the beta. P.S. Yes, achievements are coming with the full release - we are as hyped for them as some of yall are!

Prepare your backpack! Buy rare and legendary items and organize them to make powerful builds. Then battle other players with it!

In Backpack Battles, you fight with your backpack full of items. It matters what you buy, and especially how you place it! The smarter you place your items, the stronger you will be!

Items come in different shapes, sizes, prices, and rarities. Combine them into even stronger equipment.
Brew a powerful potion, craft a legendary weapon, or hatch a dragon friend!

You play against real builds of other players. See what they came up with, and counter them.
See how good you are in Ranked mode! Or have a relaxing time in Casual mode.
In both cases, take your time, as there are no timers at all!

Choose a class depending on your play style. Do you want heavy crits or poison damage over time?
