Aspects

This article is a stub. You can help Dead Cells Wiki by expanding it.

Aspects are optional perks that can be equipped at the start of a run. They make the run significantly easier at the cost of unlocking new Boss Stem Cells and unlocking a flawless boss achievement. They are provided by an NPC that can be found in the starting area of the Prisoners' Quarters, but only one can be chosen per run.

The first three aspects are unlocked after the introductory runs are completed. To unlock more aspects, one must simply die. For every death, a new aspect is unlocked.

List of Aspects

Icon	Name	Description	Notes
	Toxin Lover	Slowly heals you when inside a gas cloud or poison pool. Poison no longer affects you.	Unlocked from the start.
	Firestarter	Flames deal +100% damage, violet flames deal +200% damage.	Unlocked from the start.
	Shatter	Enemies take heavy damage when you break their freeze (100 base).	Unlocked from the start. Scales with your highest stat.
	Assassin	First attack while invisible instantly kills its non-boss target(s).
	Relentless	You are invincible if you still have HP that can be recovered. You deal bonus damage in proportion to the amount of HP you are missing.
	Blood Drinker	Every hit against a bleeding target heals you for 3% of your max health.
	Damned	Cursed chests spawn rate is doubled. Curses don't kill you anymore, but double the damage you receive and deal.	The exact mechanics are unknown at the moment but we know that a biome that originally would spawn 1 guaranteed cursed chest with a chance for 1 additional now has 2 guaranteed cursed chests with a chance for up to 2 additional. Prevents death while having the Cursed Sword equiped. Synergizes extremely well with Alienation as it will increase the amount of curses you get, thus extending the duration of the bonus and heals you with each killed enemy.
	Gotta Go Fast	While speed boosted, receive 50% less damage and deal 100% more. Speed boosts last 2 times as long.
	Grenadier	Killing an enemy with a grenade resets its cooldown.
	Menagerie	Deal +100% damage per active pet (+25% per biter).	Swarm can spawn up to 8 biters totaling in a 200% bonus.
	Stomper	Dive attacks and fall damage deal 4 times more damage to enemies.
	Superconductor	Electric DoTs rapidly bounce back and forth to nearby enemies, increasing their damage by 50% every time they jump on a new target.
	Tinker	Reduce deployables' cooldown to 1 sec.
