Path of the Ruthless Effects
- Increases damage dealt by melee attacks and speeds up Ki recovery. In exchange, this greatly increases your damage received.
- This adds 20% more melee damage and increases your Ki Recovery speed by 20%, but you now take 30% more damage from all sources. The melee damage bonus is additive with other melee damage bonuses (and notably isn't in the melee damage pool with the rest of the scroll effects) but the damage increase is multiplicative with other damage reduction sources, so you can't fully get rid of the extra damage taken compared to another, otherwise identical build.
How to Acquire Path of the Ruthless
- This effect is only available from scrolls of the damned, which can only be found by killing bosses in the Underworld depths.
Path of the Ruthless Notes
- Stats requirements of the Equipment must be met in order to acquire the Special Effects.
- For the record, Path of the Ruthless allows you to take more damage than Path of the Avaricious. With the latter, you die after taking 70% of your total health bar in damage, whereas for this one you die after taking roughly 77% of your life bar in damage compared to a normal build.
