NEW CONTENT

New Superstring Agent

Name: Yugiri

A girl with a tragic past and a troubled fate. During her latest attempt to escape from the laboratory, she caused a corrosive gas leak, which subsequently triggered an explosion. P.U.S currently has her in custody under the guise of supervision.

Active Skill: Corrosive Mist

Yugiri deploys a snail device that releases a spherical mist on activation, temporarily eroding the armor cap of nearby enemies. Up to 3 devices may be placed at any given time.

Passive Skill: Toxin Burst

Upon dealing sufficient HP damage to an enemy with her main weapon, corrosive toxins erupt from the target, temporarily eroding the armor cap of nearby enemies. The effect is stronger against stringified enemies.

Ultimate Skill: Venomous Formation

Yugiri unleashes a sweeping mist that steadily advances forward, temporarily eroding the armor cap of enemies within its path.

New Superstring Agent Preview - Live on February 20

Leona (P.U.S)

Developer's Note: Existing P.U.S. sentinels focus on their local combat abilities. To mix things up, we're introducing Leona, Strinova's first barrier-focused sentinel. Her exceptional building skills create the perfect setting for defenders to maximize their damage output.
