Monday With Verlyrus!

A now a word from Verlyrus!

Hi there! Verlyrus here with an update on Pyromancer! With all the animations done, it’s time to get theskills going. Following Tomix’s vision of the class, Pyromancer is a class sure to set your foes ablaze!You’ll be able to use the entanglement of fire and magic to wreak havoc on your enemies, as well as to protect yourself.


Here’s a preview of one of Pyromancer’s skills (numbers are subject to change!):

Malcifer-
4 hits:

  • Hit 1 steals health equal to the damage done
  • Hit 2 applies the Burned debuff, reducing your opponent’s resistance to fire by 25 for 5 turns
  • Hit 3 applies the Feared debuff, stunning your opponent’s for their next turn
  • Hit 4 applies the Cursed debuff, reducing your opponent’s damage by 25% for 5 turns

Like any fire, Pyromancer takes a lot to extinguish. Until they stomp out every last ember, you might still have a trick up your sleeve to return from the ashes!


The class is being poked at right now for more balanced numbers and some tricky skill functionality. With any luck, you won’t explode* when you equip it!


*Or get vaporized, turned to ashes, turned into Ash, sucked into an alternate dimension, deep fried, deep fried (extra crispy), compressed into a little ball, turned inside out, trapped in a box, etc. Taking the necessary precautions against these sorts of things can be very time consuming!
