Walpurgis 0.99 Preview- Heavensever, severing heaven
23I was happy to see all the positive reactions to the sword animations for Heavensever and some speculation on what happens with the other fire modes. What was your guess? Well, here's the answer!
The secondary fire mode is Dimensional Split! Swing the sword covered in hyperspatial energy, and bam, something halfway across the room loses it's head, typically making it explode in gibs if not hardy. This is quite different to the Myrmidon's Vorpal Axe slashes, since it has no interaction directly with the sword, and it is super precise, with no area of effect. It's amazing at sniping enemies at long distances, but not so great at area suppression (yes, indeed, that makes it basically the opposite of Firestorm).
The tertiary fire creates a Dimensional Shield over your actual shield. Whilst you sustain it, the shield negates ALL projectiles and travels with you. However, you cannot move forwards with it active, it doesn't fully stop AoE, it continually drains Verdant Mana, and it won't stop melee enemies flanking you, making it quite different to the Crux Calicus shield. That's not all, though. Let go of the fire button, and the shield deploys itself there. Now, if you deploy the second shield, the two will lock on to each other's co-ordinates (within reason and sight) and start hammering the space between with bolts, allowing you to create deadly walls of death you can lead enemies in to.
