Combat: Action and Adrenaline!

Combat HQ

The Combat HQ has been updated with a whole host of information about the hotly anticipated action bar, and a new feature for the Evolution of Combat beta: adrenaline!

This week, all the information you need to know about the upcoming action bar has been added to a new tab, including details of how you can add abilities to the bar; how it works once you’ve set it up; key mapping, and much more!



Also this week, we’re pleased to announce details of adrenaline: a player resource brand new to the Evolution of Combat. Located just above the action bar slots, your adrenaline meter builds up as you do damage in combat. The new Basic abilities can be used to generate additional adrenaline, while Thresholds and Ultimates require you to have a certain amount of adrenaline before their use, as they’re more powerful. To find out more about this system, head over to the Combat HQ and check out the new Action Bar and Adrenaline tab.



Behind the Scenes

In addition to the Combat HQ update, here’s another episode of Behind the Scenes on video, dedicated to the Evolution of Combat. Mod Chris L and Mod Hunter will take you on a whistle-stop tour through the new action bar and adrenaline features! You’ll see how the action bar will work, and watch as both the action bar and adrenaline are used in combat situations!

Looks good to me can't wait tbh

Think I might enjoy slayer once this is out LOL!

I thought for sure they were going to call it mana or something.

Looks interesting. I feel bad for people that still play on Fixed screen ;\

LOL MANA


Looks pretty cool, can't wait to try this stuff out!

This certainly looks interesting! I may be able to bare combat after this update, in fact, it may even be a bit fun!

I think I'm gonna gain quite a few slayer levels after this update , It looks amazing I really can't wait!

Looks like good motivation to finish off Slayer and combat for me. Loving these blogs so far, hopefully they live up to the hype!

Fixed for life.

This looks pretty awesome, albeit quite complicated. Not that I have a problem with that, but it will take some getting used too.
