This does not apply to Automatons and Reapers.<br><br>Cinders also grant a Mastery/Paragon EXP multiplier, cinders 0-4  granting +30%, cinders 5-8 granting 20%, cinders 9-12 granting 10% and cinders 13-16 granting 5%.

==History==

=== [[https://steamdb.info/patchnotes/16649764/ 0.2.8]]: ===

* Centurion Hunters
** Now spawn every 8 to 20 rooms, previously every 6 to 14 rooms. The final sound and screen-shake before the robot spawns are now played at the start of the room it will appear.
* Reaper
** Spawn chance and spawn rate has been slightly lowered, both for the base-line Cinder value and for the natural value from Curse.
* Defensive Measures
** Now a 20% chance to add a defensive enchantment, down from 25%.
* Twice Enchanted
** Now a 50% chance to add an additional enchantment, down from 75%.

=== [[https://steamcommunity.com/games/2088570/announcements/detail/4594321978673510671 0.2.6]]: ===

* Every active Cinder modifier now also adds +0.5% health and armor per floor to normal enemies, not just bosses. 
** This does not apply to Automatons and Reapers.

==={{0.2.5}}===
* Centurion Hunters
** Health and armor values and scaling of these values into later floors has increased. The rooms before the Hunter invades will now rumble to announce their upcoming appearance.
* Double-Edged Sword
** Now only applies a negative enchantment modifier to your starting weapon. Does not increase frequency of negative modifiers anymore.
*Pestilence
** Has been completely reworked. Goodbye maggots! Infested enemies explode on death, emitting a nova of poisonous projectiles after a short delay. If an enemy touches one of these projectiles, they will become Infested too. This is a modifier favoring single target and precise damage as it can get very out of hand when you accidentally infest the entire room.
*Conqueror's Will
** Instead of applying a x0.50 damage reduction for 8 seconds, it now applies a x0.50 damage reduction for 20 seconds but the damage reduction decays over those 20 seconds.
* Defensive Measures
** Now a 25% chance to add a defensive enchantment, down from 30%. Resistance Enchantments now grant a 30% damage reduction, previously 50%.
*Cascading Pain
** Has been removed and replaced with: Afterlife Express
** Afterlife Express: Reapers can now spawn regardless of how Cursed you are. Reapers gain Armor and an additional attack.
* Ill Equipped
** Has been removed and replaced with: Monster Jam
** Monster Jam: You sometimes encounter Rooms filled to the brink with Enemies.
* Automaton Guardians
** Less health and armor in the early game. They also don't repair themselves anymore.

=== {{0.2.4}} ===
* Changed Cascading Pain to "Curse is {{col|R|50%}} more likely to take effect." from "Increased chance for cursed rewards to appear."

=== {{0.2.2 v2}} ===
* Most Cinders have been reworked or replaced.

=== {{0.1.9c}} ===
*Nothing that's known
