Survivor’s Strength

The battle worn survivor.

Some warriors wear medals, Rath wears scars. Present at every major campaign in the conflict, Rath is known for her thirst for combat. While other dragons took time to recover between battles, Rath volunteered for every patrol, skirmish, or special assignment she could. And every time Rath returned, her skin bore new vicious wounds. Famously, a sergeant-at-arms once asked Rath if she ever simply tried to avoid getting injured; Rath reared back in laughter and accidentally slammed her head into a lance rack… naturally, it left a mark.

Design Intent

Rath is an aggressive hunter that rewards active play. The core of Rath’s spell set is the two-spell combo Tattered Gust and Fading Reserves.

Tattered Gust is a quick blast of air that stuns nearby towers for a very brief time - just enough time for Rath to blast away at a single tower.

Whenever Rath destroys a tower, its passive spell, Desperate Stand, grants a single use of the second part of this spell combo, Fading Reserves. Fading Reserves costs no rage, heals the dragon for a small amount, and even grants a small amount of rage. This granted rage is almost enough to cast Tattered Gust again.

Rath players need to stretch a cycle or two of this two-spell combo to get enough time to clear out any blue mage towers defending the island. Once the blue mage tower is down, Rath can use On the Brink, a long-duration cloak spell, to replenish ammo and clear the rest of the island. While cloaked by On the Brink, Rath can cast spells and attack normally without coming out of the cloak.

The final spell in Rath’s set, Ensnaring Wind, disables towers in a large area. Most players should have no trouble catching three or even four towers caught with Ensnaring Wind. This Red spell disables every tower it hits until that tower is damaged. 

Rath was a valiant soldier in the legions that defended the Celestial Cities. Following Kinnarix into battle again and again has taken its toll on the dragon, but Rath remains resilient. With the scars of battle visible to any who see it, Rath fights on.
