Abysswalker

Description
Final overhaul. This mod has excellent synergy with Lord's Blade: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1433161277

Thank you, Geptor555, for the recent Spanish translation!

Abysswalkers are knights who follow the precedent set by Wolf Knight Artorias: halt the spread of evil through any sacrifice. Unmatched with greatswords, these legendary knights confront monsters and provinces reminiscent of the Abyss. Their exposure to the Abyss corrupts their souls, affecting their demeanor and fighting style. Elegant swordsmen? Raging berserkers? The line blurs depending on the severity of their corruption...

You are highly encouraged to play inside the affliction, and dance between 100 and 200 stress with this character. He gains damage every 10 stress above 100, and gains 10% to most stats in total darkness during his affliction.

Abilities

Abilities are inspired by Abysswalker Artorias' lore and boss fight in Dark Souls.

Knight Stance

1) Overhead Slam: The Abysswalker strikes with his enchanted sword, doing extra damage to Eldritch monsters.

2) Abyssal Thrust: The Abysswalker glides forward, thrusting his blade into enemies. Extra damage to Eldritch monsters.

3) Feint: The Abysswalker shifts backward, gaining dodge and a riposte with weak damage. The riposte minorly bleeds & blights enemies in addition to marking them. This gives great synergy with the Lord's Blade class mod.

Wolf Stance

4) Somersault Slam: The Abysswalker strikes with intense force, stunning enemies. He may perform this action twice in a row. Gains extra damage against stunned targets. Less accuracy on the 2nd strike. Causes stress damage.

5) Savage Leap: The Abysswalker leaps onto the back two targets, damaging them and breaking their guards. He suffers stress damage from this ability.

6) Wolf Blood: The Abysswalker flushes his stress into another character, additionally granting them enhanced strength and accuracy. This ability works with trinkets for additional effects (guard, buffs, etc).

7) Embrace the Abyss: This ability changes his stance between Knight and Wolf.



Trinkets

1) Wolf Ring: Gain move resist, stun resist, and minor prot at the cost of stress sensitivity.
2) Covenant of Artorias: Gain crit & stress resist in the dark.
3) Silver Pendant (CC): Gain stress resist, stress damage reduction, and a stress healing reduction. Minor speed nerf.
4) Cleansing Greatshield (CC): Gain a bonus to health, prot, and a debuff to damage and speed. Wolf Blood gains a guard effect.
5) Greatsword of the Legend: Gain strength against mankind's enemies, but weaknesses against mankind.
6) Blood of a Companion: Gives allies above 100 stress significant crit & damage buffs.


Future Plans

None.

Known Issues

None at the moment. Please send any errors to the bug forum.

It's too late, but is it possible to make a nameless king?

1. 5技能强力的双眩晕控制+高伤害,而其它技能则平平无奇。
2. 高压力下伤害爆炸,独特的折磨状态提供大量属性加成,不过也存在烦人的负面行动几率。
3. 美术已经是用心还原狼骑士风采了,可惜还是感觉有点违和,或许是我心里的A大形象太完美了吧。

So the stacking effect is there no matter I consume it or not I assume? despite it didn't show on the stats tab.
Caedwyn  [author] 29 Dec, 2024 @ 7:11am 
The soul item is a way of hitting 100 stress if you want immediate risk & reward.
NEP IS LIFE 29 Dec, 2024 @ 6:57am 
A few question if possible:
The soul item i got from the start of every raid, do i need to consume it to have that stacking effect? or I can achieve that by normally reach to 100?
