Development Diary 7.0 – Bathory

Dear Lords,

Today we will introduce the new content, including the new hero Bathory .

[New Hero Bathory]

Bathory 's army was Polish Winged hussars. She uses a 5-meter-long wooden lance. The unique extra-long lance can cause devastating damage to the enemy's formation and gain an edge against cavalry. However, due to the long lance, after it hits the enemy, it cannot be used again until the cooldown time is reset. During this time, try to avoid confronting the enemy cavalry.
