Hordas de Jotunnslayer do Guia do Iniciante Hel

While I was on the lookout for shoot 'em up bullet hell games like Vampire Survivors, Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel caught my attention. É um RPG de sobrevivência de cima para baixo, inspirado na mitologia nórdica, onde você luta contra hordas de inimigos usando suas habilidades especiais enquanto conclui tarefas atribuídas. 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 está atualmente em acesso inicial e apresenta conteúdo limitado; no entanto, os desenvolvedores têm planos de retirar atualizações ao longo do tempo até o lançamento final do jogo. 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. Seeress e Revenant usam uma equipe e um arco, respectivamente, que os tornam uma escolha perfeita para jogadores que procuram uma aula voltada para ataques de longo alcance. 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

Agora que a seleção de personagens e localização está fora do caminho, os iniciantes devem entender as preferências de ataque que se estabelecem em hordas de Jotunnslayer de Hel antes de mergulhar na jogabilidade. 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. No entanto, experimente as preferências de ataque manual depois de obter alguma experiência, pois isso pode ser divertido para alguns jogadores que desejam um desafio e querem mais controle sobre as manobras de ataque de seus heróis.

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. Os inimigos mortos soltam cristais que você precisa coletar andando perto deles, pois eles ajudarão você a subir de nível o herói e adquirir novas habilidades e atacar movimentos.

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.
• Sobreviva à maldição : o mundo congelado de Niflheim verá uma nevasca de um minuto na qual sua velocidade de movimento diminui, mas os inimigos ficam agitados e atacam em números. Make it through the curse period to complete the objective.

Completar todos os três objetivos em dificuldade fácil (quatro em dificuldade normal e assim por diante) marcará o portal de onde você inicia a missão final para derrotar o chefe principal: convocar o 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 . A turma permanecerá a mesma que o seu herói adquirido, ou seja, você só terá a opção de Revenant se estiver jogando como Revenant durante a partida. However, you may get any of the four Gods: Thor, Loki, Freya, Odin .

Este menu aparece cada vez que você ganha um nível jogando e coletando cristais, portanto, não se preocupe em perder uma energia específica, pois você terá muitas chances de adquiri-lo durante o ataque. 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. Além disso, se você não gostar do tipo de habilidade mostrado a você, use a opção Reroll para obter novos e banir para fazê -los desaparecer completamente para essa rodada.

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. Por exemplo, escolhi Zealot para Berserker durante minha jogada, pois tive muitas habilidades de Deus adquiridas e essa subclasse reduziu a recarga para elas significativamente.

Baú do tesouro

Treasure Chests will also appear on your minimap from time to time, so keep an eye out for these and open them when possible. Isso pode fornecer habilidades temporárias, porém poderosas , que podem ser muito úteis ao lutar contra hordas ou chefes (veja a segunda imagem acima). 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%

As três últimas recompensas mencionadas acima são do baú do tesouro divino de Freya; portanto, os efeitos da recompensa são aplicados permanentemente ao seu herói e também são empilháveis.

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. Fique na marcação no chão para convocar o Jotunn (aparece no minimap) e o monstro aparecerá após uma curta cena (o que é felizmente ignorável).

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. Embora os desbloqueios de aumento da capacidade não sejam mais tão simplificados, essa mudança representa uma aquisição clássica do mecânico da árvore de habilidades como a maioria dos outros jogos. There is a separate skill tree for each Class and God. Para iniciantes, sugiro começar atualizando a árvore de habilidades de Deus para o seu poder divino preferido , ou seja, o Deus cujas armas você mais gosta de usar. You can simultaneously level up and obtain skills for your favorite Class to make a strong build for higher difficulty raidsin Jotunnslayer.
