The Hierophant's attacks are as follows, and INTENSIFY at a random chance based on Hierophant's health;
|
||||
- Creates a cardinal or diagonal blast(Cross Blast) under its target, exploding after a short time.
|
||||
INTENSITY EFFECT: Creates one of the cross blast types under itself instead of under the target.
|
||||
INTENSITY EFFECT: The created Cross Blast fires in all directions if below half health.
|
||||
- If no chasers exist, creates a chaser that will seek its target, leaving a trail of blasts.
|
||||
INTENSITY EFFECT: Creates a second, slower chaser.
|
||||
- Creates an expanding AoE burst.
|
||||
- INTENSE ATTACKS:
|
||||
The Hierophant's attacks are as follows;
|
||||
- These attacks happen at a random, increasing chance:
|
||||
If target is at least 2 tiles away; Blinks to the target after a very brief delay, damaging everything near the start and end points.
|
||||
As above, but does so multiple times if below half health.
|
||||
Rapidly creates Cross Blasts under a target.
|
||||
If chasers are off cooldown, creates four high-speed chasers.
|
||||
- IF TARGET WAS STRUCK IN MELEE: Creates a 3x3 square of blasts under the target.
|
||||
Rapidly creates cardinal and diagonal Cross Blasts under a target.
|
||||
If chasers are off cooldown, creates 4 chasers.
|
||||
|
||||
- IF TARGET IS OUTSIDE THE ARENA: Creates an arena around the target for 10 seconds, blinking to it if Hierophant is not in the arena.
|
||||
- IF TARGET IS OUTSIDE THE ARENA: Creates an arena around the target for 10 seconds, blinking to the target if not in the created arena.
|
||||
The arena has a 20 second cooldown, giving people a small window to get the fuck out.
|
||||
|
||||
- If no chasers exist, creates a chaser that will seek its target, leaving a trail of blasts.
|
||||
Is more likely to create a second, slower, chaser if hurt.
|
||||
- If the target is at least 2 tiles away, may Blink to the target after a very brief delay, damaging everything near the start and end points.
|
||||
- Creates a cardinal or diagonal blast(Cross Blast) under its target, exploding after a short time.
|
||||
If below half health, the created Cross Blast may fire in all directions.
|
||||
- Creates an expanding AoE burst.
|
||||
|
||||
- IF TARGET WAS STRUCK IN MELEE: Creates a 3x3 square of blasts under the target.
|
||||
|
||||
Cross Blasts and the AoE burst gain additional range as Hierophant loses health, while Chasers gain additional speed.
|
||||
|
||||
When Hierophant dies, it stops trying to murder you and shrinks into a small form, which, while much weaker, is still quite effective.
