Twisted Forest Changes

• Soul Sever (Reaper’s Spirit): While focused, press the attack key to vanish and reappear with a forward slash. You are invincible while vanished.

New Traits & Fragments

Portal Updates

Other Gameplay Improvements

• Changed the soul grave VFX that appears when the player dies.
