Update: 7 Mar @ 3:46pm

Thanks to Adisca for pointing out a bug in Basilisk's "Shed Skin" move. After testing, I decided to get rid of the bonus action. The skill already gives extra Protection, which prevents the Basilisk from getting griefed right after healing; and, removing the bonus action also give the player a chance to breathe.

Noticed that the Basilisk's movelist was cluttered. Leap was always meant to be hidden in the UI. Added the required line, so now the Basilisk's UI looks a bit cleaner.

Update: 11 Feb @ 11:32am

Adjusted Apprentice tier Basilisk to be closer to Rank 1 hero balance:
>Blight Resist 100 -> 80%
>Bleed Resist 100 -> 70%
>Debuff Resist 80 -> 60%
Lowered min and max damage of all skills
Lowered ACC of Whiplash and Vile Hunger
Lowered trinket drop rate from 30 -> 20%


Adjusted Veteran tier Basilisk:
>Blight Resist 110 -> 100%
>Bleed Resist 110 -> 80%
>Debuff Resist 90 -> 70%
Lowered trinket drop rate from 40 -> 30%


Adjusted Champion tier Basilisk:
>Bleed Resist 120 -> 100%
>Debuff Resist 100 -> 90%
Kept trinket drop rate at 50%


All Difficulties:
Removed Death Rattle (destress and horror clear) after discovering bug.
->Will replace with something else later. Resolving the error comes first.

Tweaked Trinkets:
Petrifying Amulet
+10 -> +5% Chance Party Surprised
Being ambushed isn't fun.

Barbed Tail Whip
-30 -> -20% Stun Resist
-30 -> -20% Stress Healing Received
Negatives outweighed positives.

Basilisk Drool
+25% Stress -> Removed
-60 -> -30% Blight Resist
SPD and Dodge debuff should be enough.

Token Hunter
-30% Stress Healing Received -> Removed
+5 -> +6% DMG
+5 -> +6% Stress
Removed SHR debuff and increased On Kill buffs to allow
for fast ramp up.

Tweaked Basilisk:
Shed Skin now applies a -20% Bleed Resist debuff to Basilisk, opening it up to Bleed synergies. For context, Basilisk can use Shed Skin 2 times, meaning it's debuffs will max at -20% Debuff Resist and -40% Bleed Resist.
