Prominence II: Hasturian Era

v4.1.1 - The great Rebalance Part 1

This Update Fixes a couple of issues that have come with the latest Simply Swords update. Many weapons that have been a bit too strong are also nerfed while we are at it. Classic game devs smh... Items like Gh'aj were way too weak and as we all know, nerf Archer. So that is exactly what we did. Many more weapons have been made more viable, to encourage build variety. Just because your current build isnt mentioned here, doesn't mean it will never be adjusted or buffed/nerfed. There is many more planned changes. Changes are loosely grouped for each class.

We are also aware the the Wither currently does not drop Simplyswords and are working on a fix.
