Commentary:
You could have noticed that the Dream Guard becomes quite powerful at the end of most runs, while taking some time to grind the points for Sand Pouch's abilities;
He's really strong but slow, which isn't very fun, considering that most of the time you'll be waiting for your Sand Pouch to recharge instead of dealing damage on your own;
This update aims to change it, making somnolence less powerful, but allowing you to apply it more frequently, while also providing some changes to the "meta" of the Dream Guard's abilities (and making sandplosion finaly usable...);

-Removed one the Dream Guard's birthright effects that decreased his damage penalty from 50% to 70%;
-Decreased the additional damage dealt to enemies with the Dream Guard's birthright when somnolence expires from 75% to 50%;
-Sandplosion spawned by killing enemies with the Dream Guard's birthright no longer deals damage;
