Next month, Skyforge will get receiving the Ignition update for both PS4 and PC that will bring a hot new class into the game. The Firestarter is a ranged damage dealer that use, you guessed it: Fire skills. Their abilities range from fireballs to flamethrowers to a “cataclysmic hail of fire from the sky”. This is the 18th class in the game, but the first one to use fire for the base of its skills.
“We always pick a cool source of inspiration for new classes to give every one of them a distinctive aesthetic and flair. Firestarters are nomadic entertainers, and they’ve relied on their theatricality and storytelling abilities to survive since Kir’s downfall all those years ago. As such, we ran with the entertainer aspect and gave the Firestarters a fiery harlequin look, with the final costume giving the class the look of a demonic jester, perhaps a dark trickster in service of an even darker master…”
There’s no word about what else the content expansion will include besides the new class. It’s likely to include new items and locations to explore. We’ll have to wait for more information from the Skyforge team.
