The New Career: The Necromancer
Have you ever dreamed of annihilating enemies with an army of undead? Then Sienna's new career as a Necromancer in Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is just what you need. With the power to raise the dead and use them against your foes, this new career is a true game-changer. But don't worry, we're here to help you get started.
A Brief Introduction to the Necromancer Career
After a fierce battle with her twin sister Sofia, Sienna has acquired a new ability - that of necromancy. This means she now leads a squad of skeletons into battle. Sounds cool, right?
The New Weapons
As a necromancer, Sienna possesses two unique weapons: the Soul Reaver Staff and the Enchanted Scythe. With the Soul Reaver Staff, you can fire a cursed bolt that jumps between enemies, destabilizing them and inflicting damage over time. The staff's secondary attack tears the soul out of an enemy, causing massive damage.
On the other hand, the Enchanted Scythe is a menacing two-handed weapon with great reach and powerful impact. Its special attack allows Sienna to slam the weapon into the ground, triggering an energy explosion around her.
Other Updates & Changes
In addition to introducing the necromancer career, update 5.1.0 also brought some bug fixes, feature changes, and optimization improvements. Among them, the game's installation size has been significantly reduced.
- Changes to the loading algorithm: Optimization improvements include changes to the loading algorithm, aiming to reduce loading times.
- RAM usage: The game now consumes less RAM, which is particularly beneficial for players with lower RAM or on consoles.
