Deskrawl 1.0.3 patch notes
Released 16 October 2026 (build 25973417), together with the 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b hotfixes. The new systems come first, then every ability, talent, item, status effect and rune set whose numbers or text changed, with the old value next to the new one.
Systems
Rune Cube
Transmuting 9 Uncommon runes into a Rare now always works (50% before). Rare to Legendary stays at 15% and Legendary to Set at 50%.
Loot
The base Black Mist chance went from 0.25% to 0.32%, and Set runes roll at weight 0.9 instead of 0.7 (out of 100). A Mythic Treasure Chest holds a divine item 0.036% of the time instead of 0.005%, and the treasure map drakes drop Golden Treasure Chests where they used to drop Mythic ones.
Stat caps
Cooldown Reduction now caps at 80% instead of 85%. Damage Reduction and the six elemental reductions cap at 90%; they used to go up to 100%. The new Flat Damage Reduction stat takes a fixed amount off every hit after all other reductions (Stoneguard Greaves give 300).
Upgrades and potions
Shoulder upgrades to +9 and +10 need Cinderlord Horns instead of a Demon's Skull. Three flasks swap their Demon's Skull for a boss material: Flask of the Swift needs an Ogre Heart, Flask of the Cruel a Manticore Venom Sac and Flask of the Wind a Werewolf Pelt. Werewolf Pelt is new; the Bloodmoon Werewolf drops it on 20% of kills.
Bosses
Bosses shrug off repeated staggers: the first stagger in a 10-second window lands in full, and every later one inside that window lasts 30% as long.
Lucky wheel
A spin costs 12,500 gold instead of 10,000.
