A new career has arrived in Warhammer: Vermintide 2. The Sister of the Thorn is now available for Kerillian and it introduced many new features like new abilities, new weapon types, a new talent tree, and new character skin. Players can even try out new challenges. There is also a new hat and new voice lines that you can enjoy.
With this, Kerillian gets to use magic better than ever and no longer needs to pull magical punches when it comes to enemies. The new career is already available for purchase over at Steam though console players need to wait until June 30.
Kerillian is one of the five playable characters in the game and is usually depicted wearing a cloak with her face covered while wielding a Longbow. Currently, she has three career paths. Waystalker is about perfecting her Waywatcher skills and elven archery.
The Handmaiden is about devotion to Isha and mastery of melee combat focused on spears. Finally, the Shade embraces Khaine, the God of War and Murder, which lets her master true stealth.
For the Sister of the Thorn career, features include:
- Briar Javelin
- Deepwood Staff
- New talent tree
- Exclusive character skin
- New challenges
- New voice lines
- New hat
In a statement, Fatshark CEO Martin Wahlund shared that they are more than happy to introduce the third career path. He added that with Sister of the Thorn, players should be able to hold off enemies.
