Breach

Breach is a type of map encounter. Interacting with a Breach will create an expanding tear in the fabric of reality, causing demons to spill out into the world.

Mechanics

Breach monsters can only be seen and damaged inside of the expanding Breach. The Breach will continue to expand for a specified duration before closing in on itself. Defeating more Breach monsters will keep the Breach open longer.

Version history

Version	Changes
0.3.0	Currently, access to most Pinnacle Content requires the same key at the easiest, and most difficult version of the content. This creates a negative feeling where at lower difficulties, instead of wanting to run the content, you're often better off just selling it to someone who can run it at maximum difficulty. To address this, each content (excluding The Arbiter of Ash) will now drop Splinters, which will not form into singular Items. Instead of using the singular, combined item in the Realmgate, you can now just bring your Splinters. Upon inserting the splinters into the Realmgate, an interface will appear allowing you to pick your difficulty, each with a different entry cost. As a result of this change, the corresponding Atlas Passive Trees no longer affects the difficulty of the content, and has been changed to purely affect the content in the Maps on the Atlas.
0.2.0g	Breach Splinter drop rates have been increased by +50%.
0.2.0f	Breach hands now can drop splintersBreach SplinterStack Size: 300Consume at least 50 Splinters at the Realmgate to enter the Twisted Domain. at all levels. This amount starts low and increases with area level, similar to splinter drops from monsters.
0.2.0	Extra content, such as Breach, Delirium, Expedition and Ritual, now start spawning further away from The Ziggurat Refuge. The number of Monsters spawned from Breaches has been reduced. A higher percentage of the total number of Breach monsters spawned are now spawned earlier in the encounter. Reduced the number of small Breach chests found. Breach Splinters can now be obtained from Breaches in all Map Tiers, with the amount scaling up per Map Tier. Breach and Delirium encounters are now considered complete when you open the Clasped Hand or Delirium Mirror. The chance for Breach Rings to drop has been greatly reduced.
0.1.1	Reduced the number of monsters and small chests from Breaches by 15%.
0.1.0e	Lowered the baseline monster density of Breach Encounters, primarily by reducing the frequency of the "Elite" monsters appearing. Fixed an inconsistency in the different types of packs that could spawn during Breach Encounters, you should now see more different types of Monsters appearing on an area to area basis.
0.1.0	Introduced to the game.
