Valor is an isometric action RPG where you play as a gladiator. Here, you embark on an epic journey and fight in different arenas to prove your worth. The game received an update recently that features a new gladiator, Victoria. Read further to learn more about her.

Here Comes a New Fighter

Victoria is the newest gladiator that you can use in the game. She is one of the daughters of Alexander of Sanguine and also suffers from the hereditary disease known as Vampirism.

After finding out that the way House of Sanguine suppresses Vampirism is by harvesting blood from the captured poor, she abandoned her family and started a revolution.

Obviously, her passive ability is Vampirism. All of Victoria’s abilities cost 15% of her maximum HP to cast. If she hits an enemy with any of her abilities, she heals for the same percentage over four seconds.

Anyway, there are a couple of things to keep in mind. The first is that the 15% HP cost is fixed and is not decreased by invincibility or damage reduction. Second, her health cannot be reduced below one HP by Vampirism, though she can still get killed by other means.

Her first ability is Blood Bolt. When used, she will launch a projectile forward, dealing full damage to the first enemy hit. It continues onward, dealing reduced damage to subsequent enemies.

Bat swarm is where Victoria unleashes a flurry of bats toward the enemy. Foes hit by the first bat not only take full damage but are slowed as well. Enemies take reduced damage for every succeeding bat.

Her last ability, Sanguine Shape, drains the health of nearby enemies when used. Furthermore, she gains increased movement speed and damage reduction for a brief period.

Aside from the addition of a new gladiator, the developers have also increased the level cap to level 20 (from 15). Moreover, those who have some gold saved up can now buy Gadgets from the appropriately named menu.
