Patch Notes:
[New Chess Piece]
Dualplot - Taorive
Role: Survivability/Carry
Race: Pandaman
Class: Martialist
Quality: Legendary
Skill: Candle Shades
Skill Effect:
Passive: Dualplot gets 1 stack of [Chi] every skill cast by ally Pandaman units. When [Chi] accumulates to a certain number of stacks, [Candle Shades] can continue with subsequent moves.
Active: Deals 100/150/200 magical damage to enemies around, generates a shield absorbing 200/300/400 physical damage, and the shield lasts for 6 seconds. Every enemy unit damaged can gain an extra 50/75/100 shield value.
When [Chi] accumulates to 4 stacks, add the subsequent moves: Rushes to the farthest grid where an enemy is touchable, dealing 200/300/400 magical damage to enemies along the path;
When [Chi] accumulates to 8 stacks, add the subsequent move: Summon 5 Rosary Beads, slowing down the ATK speed of enemies within the range of beads by 50%. Dualplot vanishes from the board and reappears in a bead area with the most enemies after 2 seconds, dealing 400/600/800 magical damage (damage will be shared equally when there are multiple enemies within the area).
