Upgrades, loosely inspired by Boohu's aptitudes system, are various permanent benefits awarded thrice to the player in a game when certain levels are reached. There are currently 5 aptitudes, but only 3 of them can be received in any game.
Whenever an upgrade is awarded, your maximum HP is increased by 2.
"You are good at evading blows."
You have a hefty +10% bonus to your evade%.
"You feel hatred building up inside."
You will get the enraged
status when critically injured (i.e., when an attack
takes 50% of your HP off, or an attack leaves you at below 10% HP).
"You are unusually robust."
You have 50% more health than usual. You will usually need an extra pip of rHubris if you receive this upgrade.
"Your will hardens."
Your will is three pips higher than usual.
"Your sense of hearing becomes acute."
You passively map an area around sounds you can hear.
