Dungeon Defenders Awakened: Fusion Guide (Enemies, Armor, Weapons, Defenses and Pets)

A new feature that can be enabled to increase difficulty (and reward) on any Campaign or Survival map. This can be used with or without Hardcore.

A new element that inflicts double damage to Rifted enemies.
There are currently no enemies that are resistant or immune to Fusion.

A new Rift Mode adds stronger enemies which are not just cosmetically different but also boast more health, higher damage and some nasty tricks.
