Hello everyone and welcome to our 5th Darfall update. It's me Lukas and today we have something interesting to cover.
We hope you enjoyed the last AI Update, where we explained the workings behind our unit "brains".
Since our last update, we have been hard at work on fixing bugs and adding quality of life improvements, as well as some new features.
One of those features are legendary item powers. Legendary items drop very, very rarely and thus have a huge glow you just cannot miss. This was heavily inspired by Diablo, those of you who played know this :)
You can see the huge orange legendary glow compared to other item types: epic (purple), rare (green) and common (white).
Finding a legendary item boosts your hero power significantly and can decide whether you survive the next night or not.
Moon Robe
One of these legendary items is the Moon Robe of Defence. It’s used primarily by caster heroes (such as our Archmage) and also gives a huge boost to healing and ability damage.
As the description states, it has a chance to activate a protective barrier around your hero that absorbs all incoming damage for several seconds.
Phantom Mask
Next one is another legendary with an interesting power, a Phantom Mask, which has a chance to fear an enemy, making him unable to move or attack.
As you can see, the enemy skeleton archer has a fear icon over its head, as it was feared by the hero's Phantom Mask
Other Legendaries
Here are some other examples of legendary power items you may come across when defeating powerful enemies.
How to Get Them?
All of the legendary items have a very low chance to drop, but they only drop from the most powerful foes you can find roaming the map, such as Orc Warchief from the orc camps, or the Undead Warlord protecting its graveyard.
(Angry Orc Warchief)
(Undead Warlord)
It will not be easy to defeat these enemies, but once you do, the rewards can be great, giving you a huge help surviving more nights.
We hope you liked this dev blog and are eager to find these items on your own and use their powers to your full advantage.
If you have any thoughts to share, please don't hesitate to share them in our Discord.
See you in the next blog post!
Martin and Lukas from beyond the darkness of Darfall.
