The Circle of Blood awaits within the newest update.. So let's take a deep dive into the newly introduced concept. Around the lair, players will now encounter randomly generated Circles of Blood.

When first clicking on a Circle of Blood, the player collects 2 "Blood Points". Blood Points can be used to purchase upgrades that makes the player more powerful. You will find general perk upgrades such as "Automedic", which makes the player heal passively for a percentage of their maximum health every 5 seconds when out of combat. You can also find upgrades for the abilities or combos that you have available. For instance, the "Meteorist", which gives a chance to land another Meteor at the same spot, if the first one landed on at least 2 enemies. Oh, and by the way - this can trigger another... and another one... So you are in for a Meteoric treat!

Here's [i]some[/i] of the new upgrades you can gain from the Circle of Blood.

Those damage numbers are insane, but you are also rendered extremely fragile. Hint: find a group of bats with a few elites in between, make sure you are under 30% health and then wind up a Meteor by using Fireball, Stomp, Fireball. This could easily deal more than 230 damage to each bat on impact, probably killing all of them in one go. [*] Souleater X 5 + Improved Health Potion X 3 + Magical Resistance X 3: This makes you quite tanky, throw in some Longevity upgrades as well to make sure that shield keeps up, and you will fear nobody. [*] Blood Rush X 3 + Energized X 5 : This makes you have a ton of energy to use on abilities. Combine with your favorite spell upgrades, and you can deal quite some damage while keeping up the pace.
