Version history

Version	Changes
3.21.0	The Unique Item drop chances for Catarina, Master of Undeath have been rebalanced. Can now drop from any level of the Catarina encounter. [Undocumented This change was not documented by any official sources. It was discovered through player testing or datamining.]
3.16.0	If not mentioned below, all sources that previously provided reduced reservation, including for specific skills or types of skills, now provide increased mana reservation efficiency at twice the value of the reduced reservation they used to give. Modifiers on existing items are affected by these changes. Items that previously caused socketed gems to have reduced reservation have been balanced separately to other reservation efficiency effects. They still provide generic reservation efficiency rather than mana reservation efficiency, but generally have values lower than double the amount of reservation reduction they used to provide. Existing items will be updated to the functionality and values stated below, but will still display the old values unless updated with a Divine OrbDivine OrbStack Size: 10Randomises the numeric values of the random modifiers on an itemRight click this item then left click a magic, rare or unique item to apply it. Shift click to unstack.. The Devouring Diadem now grants “Socketed Gems have 25% increased Reservation Efficiency”, instead of “Socketed Gems have 20% reduced Reservation”. The basetype now has new defence value, affects all versions. Existing items received the lowest roll, and can be rerolled by using a Sacred OrbSacred OrbStack Size: 10Randomises the numeric values of base defences on an armourRight click this item then left click an armour to apply it. Shift click to unstack..
3.14.0	Modifiers that are unveiled through Jun are now more powerful than before. Previously, when an item was unveiled, the veiled modifier added to the item would be equal to the highest tier modifier available on the Crafting Bench. Now, the modifier being unveiled no longer counts as a crafted modifier and will be stronger than any craftable veiled modifier. There are other balance changes on veiled modifiers that affect legacy Vivinsect. See Version 3.14.0 § Crafted Veiled Modifier Balance for details.
3.6.0	Several veiled modifiers now have fewer tiers. Low tiers contribute more towards unlocking higher tiers, however it will, on average, take more unveils to unlock the highest tier.
3.5.0	Introduced to the game.
