New Leveling System
Level up to 99 times in Blocked and Loaded, then distribute your points among the game's 24 stat options however you see fit!
If you feel you need to start over and try a new stat configuration, you can always purchase the new "Bitter Potion" in Hope City to reset your XP and stat distribution.
These stats are added with your gear in the stat screen (Press X to access).
Hardmode Weapons and Armor Patch Notes
There are 3 new pieces of armor and 5 weapons; all purchaseable from vendors in the Secret Passage.
While you wait for the gauntlet to come out, you will want to take the time to run hard mode until you are content with your loadout.
Hard Mode runs get expensive if you die playing solo, so be sure to team up!

THEN RELEASE OF THE GAME. THIS IS THE HOME STRETCH!
Save Up Those Medals From Hard Mode!
Here's what's coming prior to the release of Blocked and Loaded.
1. Trading Medals to Vendors for High End Weapons and Armor
2. Home Professions
3. Boss Gauntlet
4. Team PvP
HARD MODE Coming Out Early Today!
What is Hard Mode?
================
It's a 45 minute speed run to try and defeat every boss, outpost and escort level for a new currency reward called 'medals.'
The Hard Mode debuffs (armor and weapon) adjust the damage you take and deal in order to give you a disadvantage against all enemies in the game.
If you die alone or as a team then you lose the debuffs.
How do I start it?
==============
Head to the king's room and use the "Secret Passage" sign.
A vendor is selling Hard Mode for 500 gold. Once you purchase the timer begins.
Why do Hard Mode?
================
You need better gear to defeat Soros. While you can farm gadgets any time, your weapons and armor will have to come from hard mode medal vendors. It is the only way to gear up your character for the final* battle against Soros.
*This won't be the final battle of the overall game, but it will be the moment when I take the game out of early acces.
World 4 has Arrived! Are you ready!?
