Greetings, fellow Sinners! This week we’ll have a little detour from the grand systems and mechanics diary to give you a quick look at the new pack of monsters we’re currently implementing into the game. [h2]Circles of Wrath[/h2] After the Prologue, some of you were asking us, will there be some more “proper” demons in Hell, with horns and spikes, and all? The answer is: well, duh! So I want to show you a little sneak peek of the [b]Wrath circles of hell[/b], where more “standard” echelons of the underworld army reside. And also, some nice new game concepts are introduced.

It’s a relatively weak creature for this part of Hell but has a twist: [b]multistrike[/b]. A series of weak yet numerous attacks in a single turn of a stela. [h2]Paper-Rock-Scissors[/h2] This is where little [b]Paper-Rock-Scissors philosophy[/b] can unfold. Some monsters smash heavy single strikes, some have a range of multistrikes. The armor can only take so much, so the advanced response of an adventurous Sin Avatar such as yourself can be either [b]Weak [/b]debuff or [b]Shielded [/b]status effect. [b]Weak [/b]decreases Damage a little, but for ALL attacks, regardless of their number. It’s very powerful for multistrike, not very effective for a single punishing blow, as 50 minus 5 is still A LOT. But works like a charm when used against our hands-on-the-ground imp friend.

But blocks ALL of it, regardless of its power. So it’s great against one fat smash, useless for a multistrike, as it wears off after even a simple 1 Damage and makes you open for another, say, 9 more. The imp will be alive and very much kicking, but his [b]bigger brothers and sisters of the Wrath division[/b] probably won’t. 'Nuff said, a smart Sin Avatar should have a bit of both for any occasion! But won't it clog up your densely-combo-packed little deck? Yeah, no one said it'll be easy in the deck-building world. What about those bigger brothers and sisters I mention? That’s the story for the [b]next Monday devlog[/b]!
