Lore

Lore Excerpt:

교단의 검은양:
검은 교단의 거짓 성흔을 주입받았지만, 신앙심이 부족해 프리스트로는 추앙받지 못한 사람들.
이미 피의 저주에 감염되어 서서히 위장자가 되어 가는 중이지만, 그 때문에 더 맹목적으로 검은 교단의 교리를 받아들인다.
눈을 가리는 이유는 눈으로 보이는 것이 아닌, 오로지 검은 교단의 교리만 따르겠다는 의지의 표명이라고 한다.[1]

Black Sheep of the Order:
People who were injected with the Black Order's false stigma, but were not recognized as Priests due to their lack of faith.
Already infected with the Curse of Blood, they are slowly becoming Impostors, but for that reason, they are more willing to blindly follow the Black Order's doctrine.
As for the reason they conceal their eyes, it is not to disable their ability to see, but rather, an expression of their willingness to follow their Order's religious doctrines.

As an Enemy

Appearances

Move List

Normal Version

  • Broad Swing: (2 sec. CD) Swings her darkness-imbued hammer horizontally, dealing damage to enemies within range.
  • Vertical Strike: (5 sec. CD) Swings her darkness-imbued hammer upward then immediately vertically downward, creating a small rupture in the ground which deals damage in a small area-of-effect near the point of impact.

Special Version

  • Crescent Sweep: (9 sec. CD) Briefly readies her weapon and then swings her hammer horizontally, unleashing a dark energy shockwave around her and a crescent-shaped burst of dark energy projectile in front. The crescent-shaped energy travels indefinitely in the horizontal direction fired.
  • Lunge Strike: (10 sec. CD) Briefly charges her weapon with dark energy and then lunges forward to a Player's location while swinging down her hammer, dealing damage in an area-of-effect cone in front of her and unleashing a dark energy shockwave at the point of impact. The area of effect cone travels indefinitely in the direction in front.

Strategy

Normal Version

  • The AI is extremely limited in its ranged capability and seems to heavily favor the 'Broad Swing' attack. Use attacks with farther range to your advantage.
  • The 'Broad Swing' attack has noticeable animation ending lag, leaving her vulnerable to attack for a brief period.
  • The 'Broad Swing' has a deceptive Y-axis hitbox.

Special Version

  • The Special Version has significantly more HP and deals significantly more damage.
  • The AI tends to prioritize its special ranged and gap closer attacks such as 'Crescent Sweep' and 'Lunge Strike'. These attacks have roughly a 9~10 second cooldown. Bait out these attacks to safely attack from range.
  • Although she doesn't have the range weakness of her 'Normal Version' counterpart, her ranged and gap closer attacks are heavily telegraphed and can be interrupted via Grabs.
