Multiplayer
Up to 4 players, drop-in friendly, one shared world. 4P enemy HP scales ~1.8x (confirmed); 2P/3P multipliers are still being argued about.
2PDuo — the "Date Night" comp
DPS
Onette / Kaelith / Ozren
Healer
Iris (or Mirelle in a pinch)
The friendliest way to play. One damage dealer, one babysitter. Iris's regen field makes most bosses a formality.
3PTrio — speedrun core
Main DPS
Onette
Enabler
Linnea (Tide battery)
Healer / Flex
Iris or Rowan
Linnea + Onette in 3P is the highest paired DPS the author has logged (52.6k on Matriarch). The third slot is vibes.
4PFull squad — the wall
Tank
Aldric
Main DPS
Onette / Ozren
Sub DPS / Debuffer
Kite (defense shred + loot)
Healer
Iris
Aldric face-tanks, Kite steals the boss's lunch money, everyone else does damage. Author cleared Dragonwake Wastes 4P with zero wipes on this. Zero. Wipes.

Lobby Etiquette (unwritten laws)
- ✓ Ask before looting the final chest if someone carried.
- ✓ Healers get first pick on healer gear. Always.
- ✓ Say which boss you are queuing for. "help pls" is not a boss name.
- ✗ Do not AFK-fish during a world boss pull. We see you. The Matriarch sees you.
- ✗ Do not speedrun ahead in story co-op — cutscenes are client-side.
- ✗ Do not bring a +0 level 20 to Chapter 7 co-op. That is how hosts age.
⚠️ Community dispute：Scaling debate: community measured 2P at 1.2x HP, dataminers claim 1.35x. The difference is one entire enhancement level of gear. This argument will outlive us all.
💬 Editor's note: Netcode note: one disconnect per session is normal, two is a sign, three means the host is on hotel wifi. Host on cable if you can. The Lag Lord judges all of us.
“Random 4P lobby: Aldric tanked everything, Kite stole 14 items mid-fight, Iris never let anyone dip below 90% HP, and the Onette carried the damage chart. Ten minutes of pure co-op bliss. Then the host's wifi died.”

📌 Exact 2P/3P HP scaling multipliers are not confirmed (community says 1.2x/1.5x, dataminers say otherwise). Waiting for a bigger contributor.
