Augments
Augments are powerful customization options that are very rarely found during normal gameplay, ONLY in Classic mode. Your chance to find one is doubled on Inferno difficulty, and doubled on Monster Power level 5. By default you will have no augments.



Classic
No respawns, death is permanent. Normal Item Drop Rate. The only thing that carries over between games is your shared stash at the tavern. If you defeat the final boss, you will have the option to continue your character in Inferno where the enemies are more difficult - but you keep everything you build up.

Softcore
Death is just a MAJOR setback. -20% Item Drop Rate, no chance to find Augments. The player loses all gold on death.

Lunatic
No respawns. Death is permanent and your enemies really mean it. +10% Item Drop Rate. The first encounters are the hardest, after you reach town you can patiently farm gear/xp,

Survival
See how many battles you can win. Unlocked after you have managed to complete the game in Classic or Lunatic.

You start with abilities you had to discover in story modes. You level out and get drops from enemies. [5] Run command is at 100% - but it's a trap! No running away/no farming.

Selecting Race/Place of Origin
Race selecting can put your character in an advantage against certain enemies For example, the Steadfast Sonite can have better healing power over long battles compared to other classes. There are numerous possibilities to choose from with some races complimenting a specific class better than other races.
