[Beta Beat] - Early Information on Round 12 of Shadow Heroes [Part of The Beta Beat V85]

[Maryij - Ghost Division RO]

This thread is to provide early insights and discussion on the initial release of the Round 12 of Shadow Heroes.
Don’t get too attached

• Details from Beta, especially brand-new Beta content, don’t tend to be very reliable for actual release.
• It’s incredibly common that features are changed during Beta testing, or sometimes even after testing but before release. That is, after all, the purpose of Beta testing.
• So I wouldn’t get too attached to any of this — it’s not unheard of for entire portions of features to be removed or reworked, or for radical changes to functionality to be made.

 Shadow Heroes
There are a total of three (3) new heroes added to Beta for testing; these have been indicated to be for the Shadow Summon.

The names of the new heroes are:

• Legendary: Axioma, Azureus, Nyctalos

 Forsaken family
Heroes become stronger when teamed with other unique Heroes of the same family.
Bonus for 1 / 2 / 3 Heroes:

• +15% / +20% / +30% critical chance.
• +20% / +30% / +40% health.

 The Institute family
Heroes become stronger when teamed with other unique Heroes of the same family.
Bonus for 1 / 2 / 3 Heroes:
