![]() ![]() And even if he’s holding a grimoire, those potions don’t go to waste-he spawns them where he stands, instead of them appearing in his inventory. There’s also a talent that gives Kruber a repeatable quest to get a strength potion after a set number of kills. Once the condition is met, Kruber gets a potion, or other buff. These include getting tomes and grimoires or killing a certain number of enemies. Yeah, it sounds weird, but these blessings are given after small quests are completed. The Grail Knight also receives blessings from the Lady of the Lake. I feel there could be a nerf incoming, but for now the Grail Knight is quite formidable. Even the crowd sweeping version of that can take out several Chaos knights standing shoulder-to-shoulder. It doesn’t take the double hit that Virtue of Audacity has to make the Blessed Blade special overpowered, though. And his Blessed Blade special with the Virtue of Audacity talent is probably the best single target damager in the game. He can dish out a ton of damage too, and use that shove to clean up his staggered foes. No small distinction when you have to fight large groups of ravenous rats, and beast men with their chaos companions.īut the Grail Knight isn’t just tanky. By default it has a ridiculous amount of stamina to block and shove-and with it equipped, the Grail Knight is probably the best blocker and shover in the game. I was miffed about his lack of ranged weapon until I discovered that the sword and shield he has access to is great. With a shield, he can block warpfire thrower flames-something super handy, especially since he doesn’t have the ability to use a ranged weapon. And oh boy, is that Grail Knight pretty damn fun. ![]() Markus Kruber–mercenary, ranger, armored foot soldier and beer lover now has the opportunity to add Grail Knight to his list of career options. Screenshot: Vermintide 2īut the real story is the Grail Knight. So now you can play those old favorites with whipping wind and other visual effects that change things just enough to keep it interesting. Sure, we missed the free Drachenfels maps, and every other major update that Vermintide 2 has had including the introduction of ‘seasons’ which brought new cosmetics, and even new weather variations. But with the recent career option for Kruber, some new life was breathed into the game. It’s a shame, because there really hasn’t been a game that has come along to fill the gaping hole the Vermintide 2 has left. It did the opposite, and after playing a few matches post Winds of Magic, we abandoned the game. It’s truly some of my most cherished times in video game memory, and when the Winds of Magic expansion released, I thought it would help keep Vermintide 2 fresh for us. Its specific brand of first person melee combat is incredibly satisfying, and its progression system and character variety had us trying teams of different compositions as we fought our way through to Legendary difficulty and beyond. For a long time, Vermintide 2 was our go-to game. For years I’ve been playing video games with friends-it’s always been our way of hanging out across the thousands of miles that separate us. ![]()
