Technical Breakdown
The Larval Tear DLC introduces a new item type that grants statistics boosts to characters. These tears come in two varieties: Silver and Gold. Silver Tears provide a +2 boost to a single statistic, while Gold Tears grant a +3 bonus to any statistic of the player’s choosing. Additionally, Larval Tears can be combined to create a Celestial Dew, which resets the allocation of all statistics. Notably, these items cannot be purchased through regular means, necessitating farming or trading to acquire them.
Performance Insights
Larval Tears have a significant impact on gameplay, allowing players to optimize their characters to suit specific playstyles. The +2 Silver Tears enable players to bolster weak stats without sacrificing other areas, facilitating greater flexibility in character builds. Moreover, the +3 Gold Tears provide a substantial boost to critical stats, bolstering damage output or defensive capabilities. The Celestial Dew, by resetting stat allocations, offers unprecedented freedom to experiment with different character configurations, allowing players to adapt to changing combat scenarios.
