Om dette innholdet

This Hired Sword is a new Hero-type unit that can be recruited to further customize your roster. The Doomweaver is available for the Skaven and the Cult of the Possessed.

Mystics who tap directly into the Winds of Magic, Doomweavers are both powerful and pitiable. Their minds constantly filled with strange visions and the sound of daemons scratching at the barriers of reality, they slowly descend into madness. The energies they harness twist their bodies with subtle mutations. Yet the magic they wield is the stuff of Chaos itself, primal and nigh unstoppable.

The Doomweaver has access to a unique new set of skills and spells:

Active skills

• Ritual of Scorn: Increases melee Critical Hit chance of allies but reduces Critical Resistance of the caster.
  
• Ritual of Suffering: Reduces melee Damage of enemies but deals damage to the caster.
  
• Ritual of Defiance: Increases Ranged Resistance of allies but reduces Movement range of the caster.

Passive skills

• Favoured: Increases the chance to trigger a Tzeentch Curse and only Curses with areas of effect will ever be triggered.
  
• Daub of Obscurity: Increases Melee and Ranged Resistance.
  
• Daub of Change: Increases the chance to trigger a Tzeentch Curse.
  
• Daub of Hatred: Increases Spell Damage.

Magic Spells

• Warp Accretion: Increases Wyrdstone Resistance. Gathering a Wyrdstone increases Critical Resistance.
  
• Idol of Blood: Summons an idol at target area. Allies near the totem cannot use Flee or Disengage, are immune to All Alone, and gain wounds when dealing melee damage.
