Overall Gameplay Assessment

Severian’s gameplay and skill kit is very simple but effective, with his skill kit revolving around 2 mains goals: dodging enemies attacks and counter their attacks with his own basic attacks.

Whenever an enemy is about to attack Severian, dodging their attacks will allows Severian to retaliate with a powerful Basic Attack automatically, dealing powerful Wind damage to them. Upon entering the battle and after using specific abilities, Severian will gain a special buff that allows him to consume it to automatically dodge enemies’ attacks and trigger his Basic Attack counter effects without players needing to time it well. Each time Severian uses his Basic Attack to counter enemies, he will gain special stacks. Once he has accumulated enough of this special stack effect, he will be able to unleash a more powerful enhanced basic attack against enemies, dealing massive amounts of damage.

Upon using his Special Attack, Severian can deal a massive instance of damage against enemies and accumulate his special stack effects while granting himself a special automatic dodge buff. Meanwhile, after using his Ultimate, Severian will deal even more damage to enemies and gains additional stack effects and buff stack that allows him to automatically dodge enemies’ attacks.
