New Artefact - Energy Axe and Shield

The Energy Axe and Shield are now available to test. This Artefact is ideal for fights where you frequently take damage:

• Axe Swing

  Deals 500 damage to enemies in front of you.

  Generates 5 mana if an enemy is hit.

• Shield Burst

  Deals 1000 damage in the shape of a cone in front of you and consumes any Revenge stack you have, dealing 50 additional damage per stack.

  Passive: Taking damage grants a stack of Revenge. You can have up to 20 stack.

  Generates 15 mana if a target is hit.

The Inquisitor

Making his debuts in the Coliseum, we have the Inquisitor.

This fight is split into two alternating phases:

• Main Phase:

  During this phase you directly fights the Inquisitor. He will have the following abilities:

  • Curse of Servitude

    Every basic attack will apply Curse of Servitude.

    Curse of Servitude: Increases damage taken by 4% and grants the Submit ability.

    Submit ("Shift+LMB"): Remove all Curses of Servitude and deals 1000 damage to all Incarnates.

  • Poison Spike

    Launch a Poison Spike that deals 100 damage and applies Infection.

    Infection: Increases taken by 25% for 60 seconds. Jumping removes all stacks of Infection and deals 500 damage to all Incarnates.

  • Acid Rain

    Creates a 4-meter area for 3 seconds at all Incarnates' locations. When it expires, it deals 3000 damage to all Incarnates standing in the area.

• Egg Phase:

  At two different Health Threshold, the Inquisitor will hide inside a giant Egg to evolve himself.

  The Incarnates will have to destroy the Egg as fast as possible. Every second he spends inside increases the damage he deals for the reminder of the fights.

  Which each new Egg he will gain new abilities:

  • Poison Bomb (Egg Phase 1):

    Creates a Poison Orb with 5000 health that lasts for 25 seconds.

    Every 8 seconds, the Poison Orb deals 3000 damage to all Incarnates.

  • Coral Burst(Egg Phase 2):

    Creates a 30-meter area that lasts for 8 seconds. When it expires, it creates an 30-meter area that deals 6000 damage.

Cetus and Levias

While Levias starts alone on the platforms, he will quickly call Cetus for Help.

You will have to deal with those two threats simultaneously, and killing one before the other will make them Enrage.

Each of them has different set of Abilities:

• Levias

  • Acid Bomb

    Launch a bolt that deals 500 damage and apply an Acid Bomb to the Protector.

    Acid Bomb: Lasts for 8 seconds; when it expires, it deals 16 000 damage split between all Incarnates within 5 meters.

  • Bubbling Acid

    Launch a projectile that applies Bubbling Acid to a random non-Protector Incarnate.

    Bubbling Acid: Deals 500 damage over 10 seconds. If it deals damage while you're moving, it also deals 500 damage to all Incarnates.

• Cetus

  • Eggs

    Creates an Egg with 5000 health at a random location.

    Egg: After 15 seconds, the Egg is destroyed, and a Commander is spawned.

    Destroying the Egg deals 500 damage to all Incarnates and the Bosses.

  • Wave

    Create a 10-meter wide Wave that sweeps the Arena, dealing 5000 damage to all Incarnates it hits.

Outfits and Legendary Variants

In Ascendants Rising, Players will be able to customize their characters with outfits.

Most Outfits will be unlocked through progression or achievements. Your first unlocks will be the Incarnate Officers Set:

Each outfit's sets will have a Legendary variant. Legendaries are usually earned through challenges inside the game.

However, the first set is a gift from us for anyone that participates in the Early Access.
