Your Legend board became your Brand
What happens to your heroes in The Ember Depths 0.21: Legend points become ranks, every node becomes a rune, Crests stay, and your first respec is free.
Nothing is lost. The first time you open your Brand, a card shows what your Legend board became and asks how you want to start.
| Before | Now |
|---|---|
| Your Legend points | Every Legend level is a rank to spend (up to 209), with a free respec. |
| Each rare node you took | The rune that replaced it. |
| Each legendary node you took | 3 runes of its colour. |
| Points on your class board | A rune pick for every 10 points. |
| Your Legend level | The runes you would have earned along the way, one pick per 5 Legend levels, so you are never behind a new hero of your level. |
| Your Crests | All kept, with levels and XP. The Crest in your class board's socket is inlaid on the Heart; the rest wait for your next free inlays. |
| Your sellswords | A Brand of their own, built for them. |
- Use suggested Brand fills everything for you: your class's suggested Brand, ranks and choices included, and shows your Power before and after.
- Choose myself starts with the Awakening and leaves your picks waiting.
