Elden Ring Nightreign's scholar class abilities
While Scholar's capabilities have not yet been officially detailed by FromSoftware, Alden Ring Nightrain: The Forsaken Hollows' The latest character trailer shows the new Nightfighter in action, giving us plenty of room to speculate:
- Potential Weapon Proficiency: threshing (stick sword)
- Potential passive potential: Throwable effects can trigger twice
- potential active potential: Debuff that slows down enemies
- Potential ultimate potential: Enemy Link
Elden Ring NightreignThe Scholar Character Trailer opens with the Knightfeller wielding a wand sword against Godric's soldiers. This cane sword looks a little different from the sword found Alden RingThe base game, however, has a silver grip and appears to use a thrusting set of attacks instead of the straight sword-based moves that are common in cane swords. It looks like Ken Sword might have a built-in dodge mechanic, with the scholar avoiding two of the soldier's swings by stepping back.
After a few shots of Scholar enjoying some well-earned rest in a roundtable hold, the trailer gives fans a glimpse of what Scholar's active abilities look like. A white circle appears in front of the Scholar's field-of-view, and the four enemies that appear within the circle are tagged with a black cloud of smoke emanating from their bodies. This seems to be some sort of debuff that potentially slows down enemies.
In order to take down a group of enemies, the Scholar appears to have a Lightning Pot throwable, which explodes twice, perhaps hinting at the new Nightfarer's passive ability. The final shots of the trailer show the scholar engaged in a fierce battle with the Nightlord Libra and his small army of summoned clones. Here, the scholar uses their ultimate ability, which binds enemies together so that any damage taken by one is shared among all. It also appears that Scholar's allies have been added during this final window, although it is unclear how this will affect the team.
How Elden Ring Nightreign's scholar class can shake up team dynamics
of all Elden Ring NightreignOf the eight Nightfair classes, none can be considered a true 'support' class. The Recluse can use magic and the Revenant can rely on summons, but both put damaging enemies at the forefront of their playstyle, just like any other Nightfighter. Forsaken Hollows' Scholar, on the other hand, seems to have an ability built around assisting their teammates, whether it's slowing down enemies in front of an ally or hooking enemies so the team can take them down faster.
Best Elden Ring Nightreign Scholar team-up
Of course, we will never really know who works best with a scholar Elden Ring Nightreign’s DLC starts next week, but there are some Nightfall combinations that already feel like a match made in heaven. nitrene's Ironeye is always an essential member of the team, and their ranged attacks will undoubtedly work well with Scholar's enemy-linking ultimate, as will the wielder's ability to zip towards an enemy and wipe them out quickly.
