The New Character Update Is Here!
This update introduces a new character selection system and three unlockable playable characters. Each character features unique base stats, preferred paths, and a signature passive, opening up new build strategies and playstyles.
New Character: Swiftwing
Role: Mobile Barrage
Swiftwing builds momentum by staying on the move. After traveling a certain distance, Swiftwing gains a Momentum stack. Casting a projectile or rapid path consumes one stack and increases that cast’s damage by 20%.
12% increased movement speed
Stores up to 3 Momentum stacks
Favors Rebound, Multi-Shot, Fast Shot, Split, and Shadow paths
Unlocked by defeating “Fleet Shade · Faceless Walker”
New Character: Formation Master
Role: Control Summoner
The Formation Master excels at shaping the battlefield. Ground effects cover a larger area and last longer, while ink summons remain active for longer. In exchange, direct projectile damage is slightly reduced.

20% increased ground-effect and summon duration
10% reduced direct projectile damage
Favors Slow, Seal, Ink Field, Summon, and Poison paths

Cursewalker turns suffering into power. Damage-over-time and aura effects are strengthened, while missing health grants additional damage to every path.
