i dont get what carvings do are they just free buffs
like is there any downside to it
Carvings cost blood (which is your main resource) depending on the tier it rolled. The more blood you have on the end of the run the more exp you get for your skilltree. We are currently working on the scaling to make it more impactful.
oh ok i always had enough for all carvings so i didnt even notics
