Dauntless previews the mechanics of cells

That word does not mean what you think it means.

The next major Dauntless patch will bring new ways to play with the help of cells. Other games might call them sockets, but here they’re called cells, and they’re what allow you to change your weapons and armor into being more specific improvements for your preferred playstyle. Sure, they can just boost your attack power or whatever, but the article on these new additions makes it clear that flat bonuses are the least of what you can get.

Want to run faster every time you dodge an attack? That’s in here. An increase to stagger rate? Also there. Like smacking things for long combos? You can unlock bonuses for that. It promises to provide lots of opportunities for big gains to capitalize on each individual player’s quirks; you can check out our hands-on piece on the game from the other day if you’re curious about how effective the game is at letting you develop those quirks in the first place.
