Look at you, you lucky devil, you're being treated to a new Warhammer 40,000: Darktide class next month! This class is called the Sisters Novitiate, a group of wonderfully violent women with a penchant for crossbows, burning people alive and putting a stop to anyone that dares to oppose the God-Emperor. Neato!
According to a blog post accompanying the reveal of the class, the Sisters Novitiate work a tad differently compared to other classes available in the game. "Unlike other classes, the Sisters Novitiate are able to choose from six divine and devastating Acts of Faith, as opposed to blitz and combat abilities," the post explains. "Their abilities draw upon reserves of Faith, allowing them to unleash brutal Neural Whip attacks to the inspiring Icon of Purity and protective prayers. Faith can take many forms for the Sisters Novitiate, each channeling the Emperor's divine will and bringing his wrath upon his enemies."
You build up their Faith while fighting, in turn choosing from a selection of doctrines and pledges in their talent tree, "each shaping how Faith is both accumulated and put to use. " I mentioned crossbows, right?
