Good progress finishing off Rhom and making headway in Corsus with @Brave last night. Along with the added Adventure mode there are some balance changes I noticed with my favourite weapon (Hunter Rifle) - it holds more ammo! Ammo scarcity is one of the biggest things you need to balance, but money being a bit more plentiful on runs now mean an ammo box or two used is worth it to help avoid death,
Additional info for that Admiral ring we bought - it’s named after the streamer who was first to complete Nightmare difficulty with a character starting at level 1. It’s also apparently useful in Nightmare difficulty as most mobs one shot you there anyway, so 15% bonus to attack and 300% extra damage taken is a “good” trade off. Don’t think there is anything special unlocked by using it though.
