Grim Misadventure #186 - Howling Fenris

Behold! A Grim Misadventure indeed! Before we unveiled the monstrous forms you will be able to assume with the upcoming Berserker mastery. But did you know that the art render for the new class actually uses in-game assets?

Let’s take a closer look at the Fenris set!

Note: as always, everything you are seeing today is in active development and subject to change. Nothing is set in stone until it is!

The pure Berserker class Legendary Set amplifies your inner-wolf, allowing you to permanently assume the form of a vicious icy werewolf, or break the set to assemble a Pierce damage playstyle. The blood of the great white wolf flowed through Fenris’s veins, and through his legendary armor, they will flow through yours!

Helm
Shoulders
Torso


Necklace

Assembling the complete set enables the following bonuses:


This is just one of the 14 sets planned for the initial release of Fangs of Asterkarn, each supports some combination of the Berserker mastery and/or the 9 existing masteries and certain to offer you new takes on old favorites.

“Permanent Duration” is a welcome statline addition.

Axe looks great too!

Hm, does this mean we can be a wolf and run around with our other pets at the same time?

My guess then the base shapeshifting ability duration is similar to skill like ascension.

Bonechilling cry could probably a skill like Horn or War Cry, the twist is probably no % damage reduction but aoe %RR shred, something like Ravager helmet skill

Thank you :slight_smile: Kappa.

In a true Berserker fashion, all-in attack and absolutely no regards for safety.

I also now want a soldier/serker who turns into rhino and spams blitz.

I presume it’s like Siphon Souls tho

  1. Will the werewolf hold a shield?
  2. Does the conversion only affect the werewolf’s damage or the entire character’s damage?
  3. Physical resistance and armor will be in the class itself or the berserker doesn’t need it?

RektbyProtoss is said to be unveiling a new class. If I’m wrong someone please correct me. Besides, I’m also in favor of them doing a broadcast. It’s been a while since the expansion was announced ;).

soon :wink: /10chars

You can remove the total conversion from the full set bonus as it’s already on the Talisman of Fenris.

the axe seems need a phys2piercing which we can play piercing wolf with 4 set

Cool! I noticed that the necklace and the 5-piece set reward are partially the same, they both convert phy and pierce damage to cold for werewolf, is there something wrong? If I could get 5 set reward, fo course I need to wear the necklice…

That is an error, the conversion is only on the full set.

good to see I’m not the only one thinking horns look cool and all but a wolf head would fit better :smiley:

I liked everything, it would look very cool some friu and ice animations on the weapons and armor, the wolf that represents the shoulders could be dark and transformed into a large dark fur cape, claws on the gloves and boots.
