Tagline: A Rogue-Lite WoW Experience Inspired by Vampire Survivors

Project Ebonhold reimagines Wrath of the Lich King as a rogue-lite action experience inspired by Vampire Survivors. Instead of traditional WoW progression, you play in Runs: short-to-medium loops where you start at level 1, stack powerful Echoes, and push as far as you can before death. Long-term progress survives every wipe through an account-wide Skill Tree shared across all your characters.

The server runs on the 3.3.5a client but is heavily customized — the open world has been re-seeded with 35,000+ additional creatures, content unlocks progressively (currently at the Ulduar era, having started at Naxxramas), and the long-term goal is defeating the Lich King with minimum-group composition.

Echoes: Run-only perks — pick 1 of 3 each level
Rarities: Common → Uncommon → Rare → Epic
Reroll / Banish: Limited per run, expandable via Skill Tree nodes
Soul Ashes: Earned per kill, quest, and exploration (≈ XP gained ÷ 20); fuel both Skill Tree progression and in-run resurrections

Permanent: Bonuses apply to every character on the account
Branches: Combat, survivability, resource gain, and utility
Luck Stat: Boosts the chance of rolling higher-rarity Echoes
Respec: Free out of combat, no penalty

Hardcore Mode: Three difficulty tiers with scaled rewards
Affix Gear: Quest and crafted gear roll with random affixes
Solo & Group Friendly: Solo leveling supported; dungeons and raids require groups
Catch-Up Mechanics: Late joiners can reach current-tier content without grinding old raids
Custom Difficulty Scaling: Encounters re-tuned around the rogue-lite power curve
