Icon	Description
	Your main health bar. Taking damage will reduce your health but it can be restored with potions, events and other methods.
	Your souls hearts. Taking damage will remove a soul heart and it cannot be healed except by obtaining more. Soul hearts have priority over your main health.
	Your shield points. Taking any kind of damage (Sometimes enemies can hit for more than a heart) will always reduce your Shield by one point. Shield points have priority over soul hearts and your main health. Shields can be restored by blacksmiths, items and equipment effects.
	The skull is a health indicator to show if you're close to dying on a run and it starts blinking when you are one hit away from death. This takes into consideration revives and defying death.
	Your resurrection indicator. Certain traits or equipment will allow you to revive with some hearts upon death. When a revive is used the indicator is shown as depleted and cannot be reused again except with certain items.
	Your evade indicator. Certain traits or equipment will grant you the ability to avoid one attack. It is shown as depleted upon evading and can be replenished every 5 combat rooms.
	Your current stamina. Allows you to dash forward and iframe through attacks from enemies. This means there is a short period of time you are invulnerable to any attack while you dash (there are buffs that can increase this duration). It regenerates as you fight and can be reused often.
	Your remaining health flasks. Each one can be used anywhere however it has a stationary cast time so you need to find the best time to use it (it can be cancelled mid cast to avoid an attack). Flasks can be refilled throughout your run, such as from certain dungeon rooms.
	Your current coins collected. These can be used in shops and the arcade.
	Your current bombs collected. Bombs deal a fixed damage and has a large radius. They can be used to blow up entrances to Secret Rooms, blocked doors, shrines, arcade machines (not broken), entrances with thorns (Cinder modifier) or kill enemies. Bombs do NOT hurt you!
	Your current keys collected. Keys are used to open entrances that are blocked off with a locked door. They can also be used to open locked chests and hatches to Secret Rooms.
	Your current Souls collected. Souls are a secondary in-run currency, they can be spent at bonfires to refill health or gain extra base stats. Some Events or class passives require sacrificing/saving Souls for rewards/increased damage. Sometimes there might be a shop that requires Souls rather than coins, this includes the current alignment shops (Law, Evil, Good).

Alignment

Alignment is a stat that determines your end path, costs of items from vendors in the tavern and bonuses from equipment such as Hero Cape. It is divided into two categories, Morality (Evil /Good) and Integrity (Lawful/Chaotic). Some classes start with Evil or Good alignment.

Morality

Positive values indicate an increase in Good whilst negative values indicate an increase in Evil .

There are some weapons that can inflict those without requiring crits. For example, Firebomb Codex can inflict Burn with every attack because of its written Effect while Firestorm Scroll only has Fire element and requires crits to inflict burns. Weapon Scaling https://i.imgur.com/qD3Q2HS.png Attunement Some equipments are required to be "attuned" in order for its effects to work. This is a mechanic to prevent too much equipment micromanagement during fights (such as swapping between 2 body armors during a fight). To attune an equipment you must equip it and complete dungeon rooms. Each room increases your equipped item's attunement by 1. Equipments can have an attunement value of 1 (1 room) to 3 (3 rooms) and will reset if you enter a new room with it unequipped (i.e in your inventory). Equipment Rarity Equipments have their own rarity, beginning with Common up to Legendary. Typically the higher the rarity, the more powerful the item is. Rarity Common Uncommon Rare Epic Legendary
