FromSoftware bosses? Now were talking!Exactly. At the end of every day, youll battle a boss that will reward you with loot that will (presumably) make it easier to survive. At the end of the third night, youll face off against a Nightlord. Beat that boss to earn semi-permanent character boosts (more on those later). One of the coolest things about Nightreign is that it features bosses from several FromSoftwares games, including Elden Ring (including Margit and Demi-Human Queen) and the Dark Souls series (hello, Nameless King!). If youre a fan of Froms boss fights, youll be in heaven.Are there bosses from any of FromSoftwares other game?Unfortunately, From has only confirmed bosses from the Dark Souls games and Elden Ring, but I think were all really hoping to see some bosses from Sekiro and maybe another game that isnt on Xbox (I think you know which one). I will say that I feel confident that we wont see any bosses from the Armored Core series.So, if youre not making your own character, who are you playing as?Before each session, players will choose a Nightfarer, each of which has their own abilities and own set of skills. Each Nightfarer also has an ultimate power that could be categorized as damage, defense, or utility. Figuring out how ultimates work together and timing them is one of the most rewarding parts of the game. Whats more, players can choose to be three different Nightfarers or go with two or even three of the same ones. As you might imagine, there are benefits and drawbacks to each, so it pays to work together and communicate.What sort of character types did you play with?While there will be eight different Nightfarers in the final game when it releases in May, the network test will feature three:Wylder, whose well-balanced abilities and straightforward playstyle make him the most accessible Nightfarer for new players.Guardian, an eagle-headed warrior thats a defensive specialist and can knock enemies back and deploy a barrier.Recluse, a highly skilled magic user that is the most challenging to use but by far the most rewarding once you get good.Wylder and Guardian will feel familiar to Elden Ring and Souls fan, especially because they use weapons and shields. Recluse on the other hand, breaks the mold set by magic-wielding characters in those games.So, Recluse cant just cast spells and refill her FP whenever it gets low?See, thats where things get interesting. While Recluse can indeed cast spells and launch magic attacks, refilling your FP isnt that easy. Rather than simply popping a potion, youll need to collect attribute marks from enemies that appear whenever they are hit with magic, fire, lightning, or holy attacks. Once you collect four marks, you can unleash a powerful attack thats different depending on the types of marks. She can also use the Song of the Blood Soul ultimate to mark enemies, allowing her squad mates to recover HP and FP by attacking. I can see high-level Recluse players being a hot commodity since she can make the whole team better.So how does an average match start?Before you even dive into a session, youll find yourself hanging out in the Roundtable Hold, which has gotten some renovations since last we saw it. The biggest addition is a sparring area featuring dummies you can practice on. Youll be able to change a variety of parameters like your character level, amount of stamina, damage dealt, etc. Its a nice way to practice outside of a session. Anyway, once youre ready to dive in, youll launch an expedition and be placed into matchmaking. After the game has found you two other players, youll each be given 10 seconds to choose your Nightfarer. From there, youll be deployed into Limveld.
