Hordes de jotunnslayer du guide du débutant HEL

While I was on the lookout for shoot 'em up bullet hell games like Vampire Survivors, Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel caught my attention. Il s'agit d'un RPG de survie descendant inspiré par la mythologie nordique où vous combattez des hordes d'ennemis en utilisant vos capacités spéciales tout en terminant des tâches assignées. In this guide, I've included everything a beginner player needs to know to get started with Jotunnslayer.

Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel Beginner's Guide

JOTUNNSLAYER: Hordes of HEL est actuellement dans un accès précoce et dispose de contenu limité, cependant, les développeurs prévoient de supprimer les mises à jour au fil du temps jusqu'au lancement final du jeu. Players can purchase the early access version for $10 on Steam and Epic Games storefronts. Let's take a deep dive into the gameplay and mechanics.

All Character Class in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel

Currently, there are four playable classes in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel: Berserker, Seeress, Flame Sister, and Revenant . Each character has a unique set of abilities called Class Traits that take effect or are activated automatically while playing. More classes are to be added to the game in future updates.

The Berserker carries an axe as his primary weapon and is built for close combat, just like Flame Sister who uses a dagger. La jumelle et le revenant utilisent respectivement un personnel et un arc qui en font un choix parfait pour les joueurs à la recherche d'une classe axée sur les attaques à distance. You can check out all of the characters and their respective Class Traits in the table below.

Class Customization

After you've determined what character to play with, you can customize the hero in a few ways. Firstly, you can select from a variety of Weapons available for that class. For instance, Revenant features three types of bows and each comes with a different Weapon Skill and bonus ability. The default weapon is perfect for beginners as the remaining need to be unlocked for gems.

Thereafter, you can select Skins to further customize your class. These are cosmetics and don't impact the gameplay, nonetheless, you have the option to deploy into hell with style. If you can spare some extra cash, get the Odin's Legendary Armor Pack as it includes themed skins for all four classes.

All Locations in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel

Initially, players can experience only two worlds in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel: Niflheim and Muspelheim . While the former world is covered in freezing darkness, the latter is a fiery wasteland. More worlds including Jotunheim, Svartalfheim, and Helheim are to be added in future content drops. The locations aren't just aesthetically different but also have unique monsters of their own.

Location Customization

Before beginning a match, you can customize the location by setting Difficulty and Modifiers . Below are all the location difficulties available in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel and their attributes.

To access the higher difficulties, you'll have to complete the level in the lower difficulty first. Each world also offers some Modifiers that come with some pros and cons. You can assign some to make the gameplay favorable to your play style. Here are the Modifiers available on Niflheim:

Attack Preferences Setting in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel

Maintenant que la sélection du caractère et de l'emplacement est à l'écart, les débutants doivent comprendre le réglage des préférences d'attaque dans les hordes de jotunnslayer de HEL avant de plonger dans le gameplay. This setting determines how the attack mechanics will work. Here are the available options and how they function:

• Attack Mode
  • Smart : Attack automatically only when there are enemies within range.
  • Automatic : Attack constantly even when the enemies aren't around.
  • Manual : Press the attack button manually each time to attack.
• Aim Mode
  • Automatic : Automatically aim at the nearest enemy.
  • Manual : You control the Hero's aim using the mouse or the right stick on the gamepad.

I suggest the default setting for new players, ie, Smart Attack Mode and Automatic Aim Mode. This will keep things simple and you'll have to focus on moving around, dashing, and dodging the enemies. Cependant, essayez les préférences d'attaque manuelle après avoir acquis une certaine expérience car cela peut être amusant pour certains joueurs qui veulent un défi et qui veulent plus de contrôle sur les manœuvres d'attaque de leur héros.

Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel Gameplay Explained

Your goal after deploying into hell is to survive the hordes of enemies while leveling up the hero and completing objectives. There is plenty of time to complete the objectives, especially for beginners who are playing on Easy or Normal difficulty. Your character initially has the default weapon attack, Class Traits, and Weapon Skill, which we've talked about previously.

Maintain some distance between yourself and the hordes of enemies, which keep getting more powerful and bigger as the raid time passes by. Les ennemis morts abandonnent les cristaux que vous devez collecter en marchant près d'eux car ceux-ci vous aideront à monter le héros et à acquérir de nouvelles capacités et des mouvements d'attaque.

Always keep an eye on the HP Bar at the bottom left corner and take a back peddle when your survival is at stake. Let the health regenerate slowly or consume Food dropped by enemies for an instant HP boost. Food appears as the meat symbol on the minimap on the top right as well.

Make sure to collect Gold dropped after killing golden enemies, defeating bosses, and objective completion. It can be used to purchase new weapons for your characters from the main menu. Keep leveling up your class, defend against enemy hordes, and complete objectives within the allotted time until the final boss fight. Defeating the Jotunn to finish the raid and unlock the main reward.

Objectives

In Niflheim, the objectives I received during the Easy and Normal difficulty raids were pretty straightforward. Below of some of the objectives in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel and how they work:

• Mushrooms : You have to collect eight fungi scattered across the map for this objective. Each mushroom is marked on the minimap and you stand atop each one for a second to collect them.
• Graves of Chieftains : Summon the giant Chieftains by standing over their graves and defeat them to unlock rewards. These bosses are easy to kill, just make sure to keep some distance and dash to dodge their attacks.
• Survivre à la malédiction : le monde gelé de Niflheim verra un blizzard d'une minute dans lequel votre vitesse de mouvement ralentit, mais les ennemis deviennent agités et attaquent en nombre. Make it through the curse period to complete the objective.

Compléter les trois objectifs en difficulté facile (quatre en difficulté normale, etc.) marquera le portail de l'endroit où vous commencez la mission finale pour vaincre le boss principal: invoquer le jotunn .

Level Up - Choose Skill Type

As you level up, a screen will pop up asking you to choose the Skill Type between the Class or God . La classe restera la même que votre héros acquis, c'est-à-dire que vous n'obtiendrez la possibilité que si vous jouez en tant que Revenant pendant le match. However, you may get any of the four Gods: Thor, Loki, Freya, Odin .

Ce menu apparaît chaque fois que vous gagnez un niveau en jouant et en collectant des cristaux, alors ne vous inquiétez pas de manquer une mise sous tension spécifique car vous aurez beaucoup de chances de l'acquérir pendant le raid. I suggest acquiring any God Skill Type initially as these can grant you powerful attack moves. You can later unlock the Class Skill Type to strengthen your hero's base abilities.

With Skill Type level up, you can acquire up to 3 God Autocasts and 2 Class Autocasts . These are attack moves that are performed along with your hero's basic maneuver. You can also gain up to 6 Passives that give you, well, passive buffs. Autocasts and Passives can also be leveled up to increase their effectiveness. De plus, si vous n'aimez pas le type de compétence qui vous est montré, utilisez l'option de relance pour en obtenir de nouvelles et bannissez- les pour les faire disparaître complètement pour ce tour.

Level Up - Choose a Subclass

Later in your character's leveling-up journey, you'll get the option to choose a Subclass instead of the usual Skill Type. Pick this one carefully as per your requirement and playstyle as it can grant you a powerful buff, unlike the passives. Par exemple, j'ai choisi Zealot pour Berserker pendant mon jeu car j'avais beaucoup de compétences de Dieu acquises et cette sous-classe a réduit considérablement le temps de recharge pour ceux-ci.

Coffre au trésor

Treasure Chests will also appear on your minimap from time to time, so keep an eye out for these and open them when possible. Ceux-ci peuvent fournir des capacités temporaires mais puissantes qui peuvent s'avérer très utiles lors de la lutte contre les hordes ou les boss (voir la deuxième image ci-dessus). Below are some of the common Treasure Chest rewards in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel:

• Elixir of Bloodlust : Critical Hit Chance +15%, Duration 70s
• Valhallan Mead : Bless Damage +30%, Duration 70s
• Elixir of Haste : Movement Speed +25%, Attack Speed +25%, Duration 70s
• Urd's Dice : +3 Rerolls
• Magnet : Draw XP Crystals from further away
• Charm of Giants : Max HP +100
• Charm of Aesir : Damage God Skills +20%
• Charm of the Elves : Movement Speed +7%

Les trois dernières récompenses mentionnées ci-dessus proviennent du coffre au trésor divin Freya, par conséquent, les effets de la récompense sont appliqués en permanence à votre héros et sont également empilables.

Boss Fight

As mentioned before, the final boss fight can only be started after you've completed all the objectives depending on your difficulty level. Tenez-vous sur le marquage au sol pour invoquer le Jotunn (apparaît sur le minimap) et le monstre apparaîtra après une courte cinématique (qui est heureusement skippable).

The boss's HP bar and attack strength will be determined by what level of difficulty you're playing on. Having said that, beginners don't need to worry as the beast is not that tough to defeat in Easy or Normal modes. If you get too close, the monster will perform a smash attack followed by a barrage of rockets . The target area is highlighted in red , so stay out of it to avoid taking damage. You can always rely on the dash to dodge . Fight the boss while keeping yourself alive to finish the raid and claim the rewards.

Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel Skill Tree

What was initially available as Virtues in Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel, has now been converted into the Skill Tree. Bien que les déverrouillages de boost de capacité ne soient plus aussi rationalisés, ce changement représente une prise de contrôle classique du mécanicien d'arbre de compétences comme la plupart des autres jeux. There is a separate skill tree for each Class and God. Pour les débutants, je suggère de commencer par mettre à niveau l'arbre de compétences de Dieu pour votre puissance divine préférée , c'est-à-dire le Dieu dont vous aimez les armes le plus. You can simultaneously level up and obtain skills for your favorite Class to make a strong build for higher difficulty raidsin Jotunnslayer.
