Patch Notes
Content Update 4.0 - Rasimov
Today, we are proud to present our fourth and final playable character, Rasimov the rogue occultist. Please take a bit of time to try him out and tell us what you think.
Rasimov is very different from the other three characters for a few reasons. First of all, when you play Rasimov, there is no mana at all in the game. This currency is replaced with a volatile one, souls, which act a bit like XP. When you fill the soul meter, you gain a bonus upgrade card among other things. This means that Rasimov is a master at upgrading skills, and you can do so much more often that with other characters.
Second, Rasimov gains his powers from sacrificial magic. Whenever you want to acquire something, be it skills or shop items, you must sacrifice health instead of spending mana. This seems harsh, and it is, but Rasimov is well equipped with permanent upgrades that help you remain healthy despite the sacrifices. You'll see that this makes Rasimov a much more tactical character where you must find ways to manage his health losses and gains. He starts slow and is a bit risky, but if you manage him well, he becomes very powerful mid to late game.
On the action side, Rasimov's basic attack has two modes. You can keep pressing the button for a continuous cone of blood magic, or you can let the attack charge and shoot a large, piercing and far-ranging blood projectile. This gives Rasimov a very versatile basic attack. His starting glyph is an explosive sigil that you place on the ground near you, and his shadow walk power is time walk, which helps you collect the quickly disappearing souls that are left on the battle field after you make special kills.
Hopefully, you enjoy playing this new character. Please give us feedback on the forums.
Important bug fixes
We fixed an important bug that prevented players from unlocking Hard mode since last game update, because of the change in the mission system. Let us know if there are still problems.
Bye now,
Matt and the Leap of Fate team
