Blizzard‘s mobile aRPG Diablo Immortal is in for an exciting update introducing new class: Blood Knight. The new addition will be joining the roster to fight for Sanctuary on July 13. The release of the Blood Knights is a very special occasion for the series as the last time the franchise enjoyed a new class was in 2014 with the Crusader.
The Blood Knight is a mid-range Class with hybrid attack options that are either melee or ranged depending on your proximity to the target. This vanquisher of vampires feeds on enemies’ life, entraps them in deadly shadows summoned with cursed strength, and relies on their trusty polearm to maintain distance from danger. And if all else fails, they may just succumb to the unholy abomination within themselves that’s vying for control of their humanity.
Blood Knights use some vampire powers but also suffer the threat of indefinitely transforming into a mindless vampiric thrall. Blood Knights use their powers to locate bite victims and perform the ritual on them before they fully transform into a thrall, but the swiftness at which the curse takes hold often claims the life of the afflicted before the saving ritual can be performed.
