Work on the Fresh Blood DLC is progressing smoothly so I decided I would show little glimpses of it already before the release. For this week, here's a sneak peek of some of the new races. In total there will be 5 new races in the DLC!
Angel
"An ancient divine race. Whether it's their unnaturally strong skin, their three vacant eyes or their callous nature, the presence of an Angel usually raises discomfort in other races."
- Angels have the capability to become both fearsome warriors and mages, but what really separates them from other races is their exceptional durability. High Vitality, high Armor and natural resistance to debuffs all contribute to Angels being unaffected by many threats they face on the arena. The main downside for Angels could be described as a "lack of urgency" as they are quite sluggish by nature.
Slitherer
"A cunning race of tentacled humanoids. Slitherers are famous for their magical capabilities and infamous for deriving joy out of needlessly torturing their enemies."
- Slitherers make excellent mages and they are often very agile thanks to their slender form. Slitherers enjoy afflicting debuffs on their enemies and they excel in it better than any other race. Slitherers need to be careful with their positioning though as any attack they can't dodge is sure to cause damage due to Slitherers' poor natural Armor.
Prowler
"A stealthy feline race known for often hunting prey many times larger than themselves. It is not wise to leave your back turned towards a Prowler, unless you wish to fall victim to their instincts."
- Prowlers are natural assassins. Whether it's sneaking behind enemies or picking them off from afar with bows, Prowlers make full use of their exceptional swiftness. As a further testament to this, all Prowlers start with a skill that deals bonus damage based on their remaining Action Points. Similarly to the Slitherer, the main weakness of Prowlers comes in the form of low Armor.
Of the new races, Dwarf and Umibozu didn't make it to this week's sneak peek, but I can guarantee they won't be outshined by the other new races!
