Mortal Shell 2 Balance Patch 1 is live on PC, and it is a big one. Enemy health is back to beta values, two bosses were nerfed, gold drops are way up, and Tarforge smelting now costs 75% less. There is also a Glimpse refund sitting in Blackmarrow that you have to go and collect yourself.

Every number here is from the studio's own patch notes, with the upgrade costs read off my own run. Do the Mortal Shell 2 changes go far enough for you, or too far? Let me know below.
