Hey Dragon hunters,
We know you've been eager to learn more about the Tracker, so here we are with a new DevBlog! As a reminder, she is coming with the 2nd major Dragonkin: The Banished update.
We're excited to give you a proper look at her! She will be launching with a total of 17 skills and today we’ll showcase 3 of them that you didn't see in the Prologue.
Let’s take a look!
Qara Tani, The Tracker
As a Tracker, she uses the deadly techniques of archery and hand-on-hand combat learnt from her clan, enhanced by her knowledge of poisonous plants and fauna.
She is able to wield all the martial techniques, ranging from formidable close-combat skills to powerful ranged attacks.
Innate Ability: Targeting
When the Tracker hits an enemy with any ability, she applies a Mark.
Enemies can have up to 4 Marks (subject to change). When activated, Qara Tani throws a knife at every marked enemy, consuming all Marks on each target for a lethal burst attack.
Enemies then take damage that scales with the number of Marks applied to them and Qara Tani refunds energy for every enemy killed that way or if they had the maximum of Marks (4).
The green gauge displays how many enemies are currently marked. When full, Qara Tani can’t Mark additional targets until some are cleared.
We wanted the Tracker passive to reflect Qara Tani's background as a disciplined hunter; someone who’s always watching, waiting, and preparing for the perfect strike. Targeting creates a flow of combat that lets her choose when to burst down an enemy or when to restore energy and follow up on her next target.
Gathered Gales
Qara Tani charges her bow up to 2 seconds to increase Gathered Gales' damage and repels enemies hit by the projectile(s).
Dance of Daggers
Qara Tani channels, throwing toxic daggers in all directions, hitting nearby enemies.
Noxious Star
Qara Tani fires a large toxic projectile that ricochets off walls. If an enemy is affected by damage over time, Noxious Star deals additional damage.
That’s it for today’s DevBlog!
And that was a quick summary of what the Tracker can do and what you can expect from her when our 2nd major update drops. As per usual, things may change slightly as we're still working on her.
That Said, we'd like to ask:
Which of the Tracker’s skills are you most excited about? We're genuinely curious to know your thoughts!
And of course, once she’s released, we’d love to get your feedback.
Thanks for following along and we hope you continue to enjoy Dragonkin: The Banished.
Until next time!
