Underworld

NecrobinderSkillUncommonPlaytest

Playtest. In the game’s public beta, not in the live game yet; it can still change.

Whenever other players deal attack damage this turn, apply that much Doom.
Exhaust.
  • You gain Underworld for the turn.
  • Every time another player's Attack damages an enemy, that enemy also gains the same amount of Doom; blocked damage counts too, and so do hits from teammates' pets.
  • Your own Attacks and your own Osty do not count.
  • An enemy with at least as much Doom as HP dies at the end of the enemy turn.
  • It Exhausts; the upgrade removes that, and a second play in the same turn doubles the Doom.
  • It appears only in multiplayer runs, and for now only in the public beta, not the live game.

When to take Underworld

While it runs, each point of a teammate's damage counts twice toward a kill, as lost HP and as Doom. Play it first on the turn your teammates unload, and upgrade it.
