Inquisitors!
Only two weeks until impact - Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr will receive a new DLC on November 12! The Hierophant Class not only comes with three subclasses, but also a brand new way to play the game - you will be able to bring AI-controlled subordinates into battle, up to four Acolytes.
So let's talk a bit about the Inquisitorial Retinue!
- Some of you have already wondered how the new class differs from the Tech-Priest who has the ability to summon Constructs. The Hierophant class works differently. As he progresses through the game, he will unlock new Acolytes who will permanently follow him. You may decide to disable some members of the Retinue (or all of them, if you wish), but this will be your team of hopefully unexpendable subordinates. Because of this, you have some control over their actions and progression.
- First of all, you can issue various Orders during gameplay - these are handled on the Orders Bar that replaces the second weapon set. Orders are special skills that modify the behavior of Retinue Members along with applying various buffs and bonuses to them. They can have multiple effects and they have different global cooldown. These Orders include "Move to Position", "Focused Charge", "Defend", "Taunt", "Salvation" and "Sacrifice".
- Second, you can manage your Retinue at the Command Bridge and during missions, this management layer includes their gear and skills. While your Retinue is limited to your maximum level, they still gain a Skill Point every five levels which you can spend however you wish. You can also assign a unique Perk to them and change their gear.
