In a new developer blog, the team outlines the four paths to growth in Starfall Prophecy. Gear is of primary importance to three of them: There will be a new tier (Eternal, which the devs admit to being unbalanced as heck), gear that requires player action to unlock its full potential, and planar fragments which allow armor and weapons to be customized to a particular role or playstyle.
The fourth path involves legendary powers, which are massive upgrades to existing abilities and skills. “Our goal with legendary powers is to change up how your character plays, based upon the powers purchased,” Trion said. “For instance, an ability that is normally a six-second channel that doesn’t allow movement might become a three-second channel with double the ticks, allowing movement, and also applies all of a certain type of buff to you instead of needing to individually cast each one.”
