Secret World Legends wraps up weapon spotlights with blood and chaos magic

As the NDA endures over Secret World Legends’ beta test, the only information we’re getting out of the game right now seems to be coming from Twitter. Over the past day, the team released the final two weapon spotlights for the new mechanics that will come into play when the game launches.

Both are centered around magic, although they really couldn’t be any more different. Blood magic uses the player’s own health to perform various attacks and heals, pushing a meter further in one direction or the other. The further the meter goes toward DPS or healing, the more potent the abilities become and the harder it is for the player to be healed.

Chaos magic, on the other hand, is a little more predictable (if you couldn’t guess by the name). When a player does damage divisible by eight, he or she triggers paradoxes that can perform a few different types of beneficial effects.
