Swan Song: The Expansion

The Yang to 2R4R's Yin. Despite being separate mods, Swan Song and 2R4R are fundamentally inseparable, and you will see that in our design. Not only does Swan Song contain items which have been a part of 2R4R since its inception in the days of BalanceOverhaulRBO, but it maintains its connection to 2R4R through its radical mechanics, reworks of vanilla items, and unconventional balancing. I say all this to warn you, don't be surprised to find that Swan Song isn't as vanilla friendly as Star Storm.

New Core Mechanic : Storms

- Storms arrive on most stages after [3.5/7/10, depending on difficulty] minutes, assaulting you with new environmental hazards
- During Storms, extraordinarily powerful Storm Elites may spawn
- Shelters like the Teleporter zone will protect from all Storm hazards, and weaken Storm Elites!

New Core Mechanic : Wishbones

- On any stage with an imminent storm, Omens appear from which Wishbones can be harvested
- Find and bring Wishbones to the Teleporter before the Storm or else they will break
- If successful, Wishbones will upgrade your Teleporter reward to a choice of 3 items
- Bringing excess Wishbones to the Teleporter will increase your odds of finding a rarer reward

New Core Mechanic : Shelters

- Shelters provide respite from environmental hazards like Storms and Fog
- Most commonly Holdout Zones, though Shelters can come in many other forms
- Only the Teleporter's shelter will weaken Storm elites

New Difficulty Level : Extinction

- The air is heavy with grief. This inhospitable wasteland will not spare you. Only for the determined and truly masochistic.
