[DEVBLOG#192] Vanilla Psycasts Expanded - Next 4 paths! (Patreon)

Hello guys and gals and welcome to a 192nd development blog. This time we will return to the Vanilla Psycasts Expanded - we are just wrapping up the 1st beta, with thousands of feedback messages received. We combed through all the reports and feedback, fixed all the bugs and rebalanced the abilities as per suggestions.

This means we are currently sitting on a formidable 140 unique psycasts that work, and are balanced well. That's like... 5x as much as Royalty had to offer. And we're not even done yet.

We are slowly approaching a second beta, which will toss another 40 abilities into the blender, allowing testers to submit feedback and bug reports for them.

I prepared cool infographics for those 4 new paths, and I'm sure you guys would like to read through them.

The paths that we will be adding now are:

NECROPATH

Masters of the dark arts, necropaths live to defy death itself. They can cast fear into the hearts of their enemies, emit a paralytic pulse to knock attackers down, rot away the flesh of living bodies and ultimately summon the dead - either through wicked enthrallment or sacred resurrection.

ARCHON

The path of kings, archons often occupy the highest seats in their local governments. Being able to easily bond with others, manipulate their enemies either through friendship or pain, with powerful archons strengthening themselves by draining the psyessence of other psycasters.

WILDSPEAKER

A secret path of the tribal communities, wildspeaking is the art of living in harmony with the forest and nature, and being able to summon the aid of the forest when needed. Tribal wildspeakers are known to control packs of territorial animals, be protected from all damage by an impenetrable shield, and they can also seem to make brambles and trees sprout out of the ground on a whim.

NIGHTSTALKER

Silent assassins who strike from the shadows, nightstalkers move under the cover of darkness, gaining power from the absence of light. They are capable of skipping to wherever  darkness prevails and executing multiple, near-simultaneous strikes to their target’s heart.

Let me know what you guys think! I'm really excited about seeing what the community does with all these cool options!
