The online game Dauntless is constantly being expanded with new content to keep players engaged. A new update adds a particularly powerful monster, new customization options, and UI improvements.
What are Behemoths? Behemoths are monsters that you fight in the online game Dauntless with up to three other players. Behemoths drop parts that you can use to craft weapons and armor.
A new Behemoth challenges players
This is what Scorchstone Hellion can do: Players can face a stronger variant of the Behemoth Hellion. The Scorchstone Hellion uses fiery attacks and burns its enemies with lava. The Scorchstone Hellion belongs to the Dire Behemoths. These are stronger variants of the regular Behemoths with nastier moves.
New equipment has powerful effects: Players are particularly excited about the effects that the equipment from the Scorchstone Hellion grants. Players who craft equipment with its materials receive +1 Molten.
Molten grants players the chance to create an orb on a hit against a Behemoth, which provides a brief buff when players collect it. The orb increases attack speed and grants complete immunity to fire damage. According to player AodanGaming on Reddit, this could change the meta of Dauntless.
Dauntless gets quality of life changes
Revamped user interface: The UI of Dauntless, which includes the graphics players use to interact with merchants or sort their inventory, has always been somewhat confusing. A new UI for crafting grenades, potions, and shopping with merchants is designed to make the hunter’s daily life easier.
Better character customization: In an online game, it is important for players to be able to create their characters as they wish. To address this point, the character editor of Dauntless has been expanded with new curly hairstyles and new sliders.
Crossplay on consoles
Dauntless is slowly preparing for a release on consoles with new content and quality of life changes. The online game aims to be released on PS4, Xbox One, Switch in April 2019. A mobile and PC release is also planned. The project is called One Dauntless and aims to allow crossplay across all platforms.
Crossplay for everyone: You can play Dauntless on the go and then seamlessly pick up your progress at home.
In Dauntless, you can face the powerful Behemoth with many different weapons. There are even pistols now. Why fans are excited about real ranged combat in Dauntless.
