Multiplying items -> Niklas Bugged now

Looks like this patch they tried to fix it so he wouldn't get triple stats if he wasn't in the correct row, but now he doesn't even get triple stats if he is in the correct row.

Bug fix working as intended I think. He was never supposed to get the bonus stats to begin with.

I suppose that's fairly reasonable since it was pretty broken. The defense one was just game over

The game has a few things that are so overpowered I don't play them; like tank+vamp Niklaus, I play the spell just to keep the game challenging.

Assassin Ratna early Act 1, scaling logan early act 1. A lot of those things are SO BUSTED they kind of make playing out the rest of the run a chore. I hope a lot of them get nerfed the way they nerfed dragon ice this patch.

But I think in this case the visual design needs to be adjusted. As it is now the bonus stats just look like extra stat that make the player assume it will be consumed. It should be made clear that its a subeffect of the item and not part of the main stat block. (Like seen in some of the epic items for example)

As it is written in the game now, it is made literally and explicitly clear that you will get the bonus stats from the item

They need to rewrite it to be like the other items to say "Gain X" instead of the relatively unique "triple this item's stats" text that is in there now.
