Mehen is a tall, powerful dragonborn with dull-ocher scales and a blunt attitude. With strong opinions on the right course of action, he is just as comfortable yelling orders on the battlefield as he is fiercely protecting his daughters. Despite a life thrown into turmoil after being exiled from his clan and attempting to raise twin tieflings, Mehen remains resilient in his sense of self and his abilities with a falchion.

Verthisathurgiesh Mehen has been greatly reworked with this update. He is no less grumpy, but he should now be much easier to use -- assuming you can find the perfect spot for him in your formation!

For details on the Mehen Rework, read on...

Stami Gackle was a fun-loving and reckless youth, but she fled her home when this carefree nature invited tragic loss into her life. She found shelter in Waterdeep with the monks of the Order of the Even-Handed, who gave her a new name and trained her in their ways. Now a capable adventurer, Stoki approaches problems with intense focus and careful consideration, having earned a reputation for being uncommonly stoic. However, Stoki's patient demeanor belies a warrior's ferocity, as she unleashes a rapid flurry of masterful blows to any foe who refuses to back down.

Stoki has received a significant rework along with a new niche focused on Champions who attack quickly. To support her kit, we are updating the Champion Search starting today as builds roll out to allow players to search by Champions based on their base attack cooldown. Let's talk about all things Stoki!

Stoki

Abilities

Basic Attack

• Flurry of Blows (melee) - Stoki leaps out and attacks random enemies with her fists.

Formation Abilities

• Focused Strike - When Stoki attacks, she gains a Focus Point for each enemy she hits. She increases the damage of all Champions with a base attack cooldown of 4.0s or faster by 10% for each Focus Point she has, stacking multiplicatively. Focus Points cap at 100 and are reduced by 50% (rounded down) when changing areas.
• Golden Palm - Enemies that have been attacked by Stoki at any point in the current area drop 100% more gold when killed for each Focus Point she has, stacking additively.
• Building Focus - Stoki keeps track of the total Focus Point she has gained in the current adventure. If Stoki's Focus Points are capped for a given area, she still counts new ones towards this ability. Upon reaching certain milestones, the following effects activate:
  
  - 100 Focus Points: Encouragement - Champions adjacent to Stoki have their base attack cooldowns lowered by 0.5s.
  - 1000 Focus Points: Flurry of Blows - For every 1000 levels Stoki has, she attacks an additional target with each attack. She prefers to attack different targets but will attack the same target multiple times if she has already attacked everyone.
  - 5000 Focus Points: Leadership - Champions adjacent to Stoki have a 0.45% chance to reset their base attack cooldown after attacking for each Focus Point she currently has. Caps at 90%.
  - 12500 Focus Points: Overflow - When Stoki attacks an enemy that she already attacked, there is a 20% chance the enemy will be stunned for 3 seconds.
  - 25000 Focus Points: Explosion - If Stoki hits the same enemy two or more times with the same base attack, power radiates from the enemy, dealing 5 seconds worth of BUD damage to itself and all other nearby enemies. Triggers with each extra hit.
• Frenzied Friends - Stoki additively increases the Focus Points cap of Focused Strike by 10 for each Champion in the formation whose base attack cooldown is 4.0s or lower.

Specializations

• All Out Assault - Stoki tracks the number of attacks her allies have performed in the past 10 seconds and increases the effect of Focused Strike by 15% for each one, stacking multiplicatively.
• Bend It Like Birdsong - Stoki counts the number of Champions in the formation with a DEX score of 16 or higher. For each such Champion, her base attack cooldown is decreased by 0.1 seconds, stacking additively, and the effect of Focused Strike is increased by 100%, stacking multiplicatively.
• A Little Bit Faster Now - Stoki reduces the base attack cooldown of all Champions with a default base attack cooldown of 6.0 seconds or higher to 4.0 seconds so that they qualify for Frenzied Friends. Their damage is increased by 100% for every 0.1 seconds their base attack cooldown is reduced by this ability, stacking multiplicatively.

Ultimate Ability

• Quivering Palm (melee) - Stoki leaps out and attacks five random enemies with extremely powerful palm thrusts. Over the next 10 seconds, all affected enemies take massive damage over time.

A young Eladrin woman, raised to be the Queen of Koshmarr, what was meant to be an idyllic life took a dark turn on the night of her wedding. Pulled into the machinations of greater powers, she found herself in Mordent, now one of the many wandering ghosts. A person of great interest both to Azalin Rex and Strahd, she sought to negotiate her freedom from these dread domains. Her longtime companions and their newfound friends wanted the same and imbued her soul into Desmond’s sword. As they traveled in search of returning her soul to her body, Voronika took matters into her own hands and used the Crown of the Raven Queen to defeat Zybilna and cause the fall of Prismeer. This action drew the mists to Voronika and soon she discovered herself a new darklord in her domain of Koshmarr.

Voronika has received a significant rework to help streamline and simplify her overall design. For details about Voronika's updated design, read on...

Voronika

Abilities

Basic Attack

• Produce Flame (magic) - Voronika creates a flame in her hand which she fires at a random enemy. If Voronika has achieved her Darklord form, the target is lit on fire and takes 1 second of BUD damage every second for 5 seconds.

Passive Abilities

• Wed, then Undead - After being killed on her wedding night, Voronika became a ghost. The following rules apply:
  • Voronika can be attacked like normal and she can be "killed", at which point it stops granting all effects like any dead Champion would.
  • Voronika counts as "undead" for the purposes of effects that care about dead Champions (Desmond), but "alive" for all other purposes. She still counts as undead even after reaching her Darklord form.

Formation Abilities

• Puppet Master - Voronika claims the BUD-setting Champion as her Puppet. The damage of her chosen Puppet is increased by 100%. Voronika only changes her Puppet if a different Champion is the BUD-setting Champion for more than 30 seconds in a row. Voronika's Puppet gains the Black Dice Society affiliation.
• Calculating Guidance - Voronika increases the damage of all Champions in one column in front of her by 100%. Voronika's key allies are members of the Black Dice Society. The effect of this ability is increased by 100% for each key ally in the formation. This stacks additively until Voronika completes her Search for the Crown, when it changes to stack multiplicatively.
• Search for the Crown - Voronika's search for the Crown of the Raven Queen requires her to complete 3 goals. When Voronika completes all 3 goals, she acquires the crown, transforms into her Darklord Form, unlocks her ultimate attack, and improves her base attack. Her goals include:
  
  • Voronika reaches level 750
  • Use 50 Ultimate Attacks with other Champions
  • One additional goal unlocked by her first Specialization choice.
• Speed Run - The effect of Puppet Master is increased by 10,000%. This value multiplicatively decreases by 10% five minutes after the adventure starts and decreases by another 10% for every minute after that, but doesn't decrease after Voronika has completed her Search for the Crown.
• Ultimate Power - Voronika increases the effect of Calculating Guidance by 0.1% for each use of an Ultimate while she is in the formation, stacking multiplicatively. Caps at 100,000 stacks. These stacks persist until reset.

Specializations A

• Embrace Evil - For the third Quest for the Crown goal, Calculating Guidance's key allies must kill 2,500 enemies. The key allies for Calculating Guidance now also include Champions who have the Evil alignment.
• Hunt The Favored - For the third Quest for the Crown goal, you must kill 500 enemies who are the Favored Foe of any Champion in the formation. The key allies for Calculating Guidance now also include Champions who have a Favored Foe.
• Weaken The Fools - For the third Quest for the Crown goal, you must apply 1750 Debuffs to enemies. The key allies for Calculating Guidance now also include Champions who have the Debuff role.

Specializations B

• Battle Magic - Voronika's Puppet additionally casts an explosive magic missile at a random target after each attack which deals 1000% of their normal damage to all enemies in a small area.
• Powerful Focus - Voronika's Puppet has all of their incoming positional damage effects increased by 75%, and their basic attack now knocks back any enemies it hits a short distance.
• Strike First, Strike Hard - Voronika's Puppet attacks 1.0 seconds faster and their damage is increased by 150% for each Champion adjacent to them, stacking multiplicatively.

Ultimate Ability

• Horrifying Visage - Voronika moves in front of the party, magically pushing back all monsters a short distance, especially the ones in front. All enemies take ultimate damage, and then all surviving enemies deal 90% less damage for 30 seconds. In addition, the boss/enemy enrage timer fills 200% slower for 30 seconds.
