Even more news is coming from Ithaca. With more changes and improvements for Legendary Hoplite…
Sophrosyne or Improving yourself
As you could see, we removed all four old passives and replaced them with 12 new ones. These passives are unlocked when players upgrade their stats to new passive boxes, and they unlock according to the player's level. Players can replace the passive by clicking on it and view its information by hovering over it.
New lines are divided into four categories: strength, agility, endurance, and leadership. Each category has three unique passives that offer different boosts to the player's abilities. For example, the strength category includes Powerful Arm, which knocks enemies back further with each ranged attack, and Fury, which increases critical damage and block break.

Weapons worthy of Achilles
With new passives comes an arsenal of new legendary weapons.
The Ice Carver is one of the legendary range weapons with unique active and passive skills. The active skill allows you to unleash an ice spear forward that deals cold damage and freezes enemies hit. The passive skill applies Chill effect to your ranged attacks, which reduces the enemy's AS/MS. If an enemy's AS/MS reaches 0, that enemy will be frozen.
Another legendary range weapon is the Life Breaker, which has an active skill that allows you to select an area and cause enemies in that area to receive a debuff that includes reduced movement speed, reduced attack speed, and reduced fire resistance. Enemies affected by this debuff will have a mark on their head. When this mark lasts and the enemy is killed, it will explode, dealing AoE damage. The passive skill allows normal attacks to apply the Burning effect.
The Lightning Rod is the third legendary range weapon with an active skill that allows you to throw a spear straight forward, piercing the first enemy hit and slowing its movement speed. A lightning chain jumps between Dio and the enemy hit by the spear, which stuns all ground-type enemies that touch it and deals damage over time. The passive skill gives your ranged attacks a chance to cause an explosion with stun. This passive is stronger when you receive the Static Form buff, which appears in the yellow box.
