Dire Discovery
New to Dauntless
Variant Behemoth: Lightbound Boreus
The Lightbound Boreus is a moving mountain. The crystals that grow from its body bear a strange resemblance to the glittering caves on Conundrum Rocks.
A new kind of prismatic Boreus has appeared in the Shattered Isles. This radiant Behemoth is psionically linked to a host of smaller minions, but appears to have lost all its connection to frost aether. What’s causing these changes in Behemoth physiology?

Radiant Escalation: Legendary Lantern Amps
In Radiant Escalation, we’ve added legendary lantern amps that are only available when a particular lantern is equipped. While rare, these amps are extremely powerful and mix Escalation runs up in truly legendary ways. Pangar’s Shrine and Skarn’s Defiance are the latest lanterns to receive a corresponding legendary amp.
The Winter Shrine legendary amp is only available to Slayers who have the Pangar’s Shrine lantern equipped. The effect of Pangar’s Shrine now moves with the Slayer. During the effect duration, the user will neither consume nor regain stamina.
The Defiant Stone legendary amp is only available to Slayers who have the Skarn’s Defiance lantern equipped. Using the lantern ability now temporarily sets your max health to 1 and converts double the user’s remaining health into shields for its duration. When the effect ends, health is restored to where it was before use and the amount of shields granted on use will be removed.
