Hero Spotlight: Drifter

Something ancient has arrived in New York... a nameless horror known only as the Drifter. Relentless as time, as certain as death, once Drifter sets his eyes on a victim there's nothing they can do to stop him. They can try to run, but his Bloodscent drives him forward, leading him to isolated prey. Even if they manage to escape it doesn't matter, as Stalker's Mark allows Drifter to appear right behind his enemies before lunging in for the kill with a vicious Rend. Soon Eternal Night comes, and a faint whistling in the breeze will be joined by a chorus of screams. -'Everyone's got weaknesses, but mercy ain't one of mine.'

You'll be able to find the Drifter lurking right behind you in games starting today. We'll be back here on Friday at 2pm PDT for the conclusion of our hero update with the release of Victor. See you then!
