These Steam figures are owner-base snapshots, not a promise that every player attempts the tiers in order. Reality being higher than Hell in this capture is a useful warning: global achievement rates should not be dressed up as a clean progression funnel.
Compared with Common (Normal), this tier changes the owner-base clear rate by 11 percentage points. The measured share from the previous tier is 83.7%.
How the decision tool changes on Hard
The tool adjusts its willingness to recommend conditional options. On Journey it lets you explore; on Reality it protects a working engine and discounts pieces that need several conditions to line up.
| Option trait | Adjustment on Hard |
|---|---|
| Reliable / unconditional value | +2 |
| Conditional (needs setup to fire) | -1 |
| Survival | +1 |
| Safe execution | +1 |
| Patch-sensitive (extra penalty) | +0 |
What this page does not claim
The clear rates above are measured snapshots. They do not prove which Hunter clears this tier fastest, which relic combination appears most often in successful runs, or what the exact enemy modifiers are. Those answers need in-game testing.
Next tier up: Nightmare (35.6% of owners where a Steam achievement is available).
