Gambit Prime: Difference between revisions

The playstyle of Gambit Prime is almost completely the same as its predecessor. Players kill enemies to gather Motes of Darkness, fill the bank, and defeat a Primeval There are, however, three mechanics that set Gambit Prime apart. First, there is only one round played instead of two to three. Players must fill the bank with 100 motes - instead of Gambit's 75 - to summon the Primeval, and whoever defeats the Primeval first wins the match. Second, players can't simply attack the Primeval once it's summoned like before. The Taken Ultra will have an immunity shield around it, and players must find and kill Primeval Envoys that appear to break the shield. Once all of the envoys are dead and the shield is down, a Well of Light appears that grants the Primeval Slayer buff for increased damage. Players have 30 seconds to attack the Primeval, after which the buff disappears, the shield returns, and new envoys spawn to restart the process. The Primeval Slayer buff stacks each time a Well is created, so the damage boost increase the more times a team creates a Well. Lastly, motes can be stolen from the enemy bank and placed into yours if two or more blockers are alive on the enemy side. This allows teams to slow the enemy's progression while increasing their own.
