From now on, you can become a Revenant in the online role-playing game Skyforge (PS4 & PC). This new class is a strong warrior, who can take a lot of hits, wields an axe, and rips the life from his enemies to heal himself.
At Gamescom 2017, I was able to play the new Skyforge class of Revenant for the first time at the My.com booth. The huge brawler with the massive axe and the eerie armor looked extremely cool, but played rather clunky and slow. The other classes were much more fun. A few weeks later, the Revenant has finally officially launched.
Skyforge – The Revenant steps it up a notch
In the trailer for the Revenant, you can see the hulking axe-wielder in action. It seems he has gained some speed and power compared to my Gamescom experiences. While he still isn’t an agile jumping ninja, the 15th class in Skyforge is apparently no longer the dull character it was in the Gamescom demo.
Strong axe attacks remain the Revenant’s great strength. Each hit enhances the subsequent strike, so the third blow is buffed by a whopping 300 percent! Here are the following skills:
- Siphon: You drain life energy from your opponent and then strike them down.
- Smash Strike: A channeled attack that deals particularly high damage.
- Dark Charge: Sends an illusion ahead and then manifests at its location. Additionally, you harm the enemies lingering there.
- Decimate: An area attack with a short wind-up time. It becomes stronger with each subsequent hit.
If you want to know how I found the Revenant and the rest of Skyforge at Gamescom, you can read about it in the linked article here. Enjoy the read!
