Hi everyone,
Before getting into the beefy stuff you might have noticed that the DLC I have been working on has now a name!
Dark Heroes
Simple yet fitting.
Now onto the good stuff! Lets dive into the second class I have been working on:
The Soul Reaver
A warrior from beyond, the Soul Reaver has a strong link to the spirit world. This enables him to harness and manipulate the souls of his victims!
As hinted previously, the Soul Reaver has a unique resource: souls.
When defeating your enemies you acquire their precious souls which you can later use in unique powerful effects. While enabling these powerful abilities, souls are a rare and finite resource which means one has to be careful not to run out of them before a complicated situation!
To showcase the class let me show you a few abilities:
Soul Nova: A powerful AOE spell especially useful when surrounded by enemies. While costing several souls, its destruction potential might well pay the cost back!
Soul shield: Several souls whirl around you trying to intercept incoming damage. Be careful, as high damaging hits might remove a soul, reducing the chance of future damage mitigation.
Spirit Portal: Cast a portal on a location in the map: then cast again on any character (friend or foe) to teleport it to the portal location! There is no limit (within the level) for the portal location but it is very frail and can be destroyed at any moment.
One of the interesting gameplay mechanics you will notice while playing the Soul Reaver is the possibility to combo/chain certain abilities into powerful effects. This my friends I will let you discover for yourself!
Feel free to ask any questions you might have! Some might not get answered though ;)
Cheers,
GW
