Powers
The Nosferatu clan, known as “The Horrors” are masters of the disciplines Potence, Obfuscate, and Animalism. The Prowler makes use of Obfuscate and Animalism in their moveset.
TheClan Power “Vanish"allows the Prowler to vanish in a puff of smoke, traveling invisibly and at high speeds for a short time. This makes it excellent for navigating, escaping from foes, and ambushes. Ideally, players should use Vanish sparingly outside of combat to ensure it is always ready to use should an encounter go poorly.
TheArchetype Power “Scouting Famulus"allows the Prowler to send out bats to scout an area. Once the initial projectile hits an area it creates a sphere that reveals any nearby players to the Prowler’s team. This is useful for checking potential ambush spots, spooking snipers into changing their positions, and gathering information.
ThePassive Power “Sense the Beast"allows the Prowler to track severely injured opponents via a red “blood trail” that indicates the direction they went. This makes the Prowler excellent at hunting down wounded foes, including other Nosferatu attempting to evade final death by using Vanish. Relaying this information to teammates during group matches makes the Prowler an incredibly useful asset to any team.
Preferred Weapons
The Nosferatu Prowler excels at hunting down foes, and thus makes excellent use of mid-long range weaponry. The Marksman Rifle and Sniper Rifle both serve this archetype well, and the Assault Rifle is also a fantastic all-range weapon. The silenced SMG remains an excellent emergency weapon for close-range combat, as does the Katana with its bullet reflecting block ability.
Recommended Blood Resonances
The Prowler’s Scouting Famulus and Vanish moves make it excellent at navigating the map and keeping tabs on threats. As such, the Prowler benefits greatly from Melancholic and Phlegmatic Resonances, which reduce the cooldown times of Clan and Archetype Powers respectively. Each Melancholic or Phlegmatic Resonance obtained further reduces the cooldown time by 10%, 25%, and then 50%.
