Visage

Scouts and attacks with his familiars

Ranged

Burst targets with Visage, a durable ranged core who passively cloaks himself in armor. As his deadly familiars secure stuns and scout the map, he gathers soul energy from nearby damage taken, unleashing it in a massive nuke with Soul Assumption.
