While the AI help out a bit, directing your projectiles if you don’t want to bother, you will find yourself infinitely more effective if you take full advantage of your abilities.
Each character has a special ability mapped to the right stick, and the mage has the ability to direct his spells. I chose to go with the elf mage, leaning heavily on his fire-based skills and sinking most of my skill points into developing those attacks. Skills Are Restrictive – But Easy To Tweak And the fact that they are entering a sewer remix for the umpteenth time might have players rolling their eyes a bit. The levels are appropriately grimdark – in keeping with the franchise – but the gloom does become a bit relentless after some time. Just don’t expect new levels of visual splendor as you do so. It is still fun to wade into an ocean of bad guys, firing off AOE attacks and wiping out entire populations in seconds. Then the game sends you into the sewers seven or eight more times, fighting your way through the same enemies in the same environment, and picking up a lot of similar loot. Once you have gone into the sewers for the first few missions, you have seen all of the tiles several times in several configurations. Now, go into the sewer for the 17th time today and kill thousands of Nurglings.”Įach of these environments has a number of templated background tiles, which are shuffled and re-shuffled for each mission. Revel in the serenity of this beautiful setting. Behold the majesty of my glorious chapel. The first hub sends you into the sewers, the second into the cursed, burning city of Praag, the third into a snowy forest, and so on.
Each hub world has an accompanying specific mission environment. Missions are played out in beautifully rendered environments – but here is where some of the cracks in Chaosbane’s armor start appearing. The hub areas are nicely drawn, but don’t offer much to do beyond chatting with the local leader and unloading your junk.
In between missions, the player is shuttled back to a hub area to sell off spare loot, watch a bit of story-based dialogue, and then head back out into the fray. Warhammer Chaosbane is broken up into several chapters, each of which contains twelve or so missions, culminating in a fairly complex boss fight.
Speaking of builds, how about a build that focuses on BREATHING FIRE?
