Chaosweaver Update!

Hey there, heroes!

After a successful weekend of playtesting, Chaosweaver is receiving an update!

Soulthreads are back (yaaay)! You will start each battle with 2 Soulthreads. these will be automatically used (one at a time) to empower certain skills. Empowered skills have enhanced effects (detailed below).

The Soul Assault and Untangle skills now recover 1 Soulthread each.

Soulthreads are powerful, but as the fight goes on, they may be hard to come by, so make sure you use them carefully!

Skills have been reordered as well on the skill bar.

The purposes of these changes is to allow more strategic and thoughtful play while also elevating Chaosweaver's survivability with good strategy. Rebuke was too strong and conditional, so it has been reworked.

Now for the current skills and effects (SUBJECT TO CHANGE):

  • Chaosweaver has a 185% base crit damage modifier, up from 175% (the normal crit damage modifier for most classes)
