Chapters and bosses
The game has ten chapters. A run is one chapter: you walk its road from the first node to its Boss. Clearing a chapter opens the next, and each one brings new monsters, a new Elite and a new Boss.

- Nodes: how many stops are on the road. Chapter 1 is shorter at 48, every later chapter has 60.
- Enemy strength: every monster’s stats are multiplied by this number. It rises fast, so later chapters need a stronger build.
- New content: special nodes unlock as you progress (see Node types), and higher perk rarities open at Chapters 2, 3 and 4 (see Perks).
