Champions Online: More Celestial Powers Revealed

Cryptic Studios has unveiled more of the skills from the Celestial powerset for its superhero MMO, Champions Online.

The newly-revealed skills show further evidence that Celestial powers serve more of a healer / support role, making grouping up more of an attractive option. This comes at a good time, as many players are beginning to find that most of the game can be completed solo, doing away with the need to group up and missing out on a vital part of an MMO; playing with others.

See an example of a Celestial skill below:

Radiance
Energy Builder

Energy Generation, Ranged Dimensional Damage, Heal Ally

Radiance fires bolts of dimensional energy at your target, healing your friends and destroying your foes.

Click

    * If targeting foe: Single target dimensional damage
    * If targeting ally: Heals target
    * Generates energy
    * If targeting ally: Only generates energy if damage is healed

Advantages

    * Convergence - Radiance gains a 20% chance to chain to a secondary target. The chain will have the opposite effect: An attack will chain a heal to a nearby friend; a heal will chain an attack to a nearby enemy.
