The latest development log for Underrail introduces the Temporal Manipulation psionic school that will be added by the game's upcoming expansion, Expedition, which is planned for a release early next year. Here's a few details, directly from the developers, on the kind of gameplay possibilities that will be added by these new abilities:
This psi discipline will, probably more than any other, will function well as a support skill that can be incorporated into other builds, rather than a primary skill around which a build is made, though I have no doubt that some of you will find a way to prove me wrong.
Here are the abilities:
- Temporal Distortion - Places a debuff on the target that lasts 1 turn and deals mechanical and energy damage when it expires. In the case the target is already affected by temporal distortion, its duration will be increased by 1 turn and damage by 25% and the newly applied temporal distortion will have the same duration and damage bonus. Damage dealt by this ability ignores shield and 50% of damage resistance and threshold. This ability cannot critically hit.
- Psycho-temporal Dilation - Reduces target's action points by 15 and movement points by 50. Lasts 2 turns.
- Limited Temporal Increment - Reduces all remaining cooldowns by 1 turn.
- Entropic Recurrence - Repeats the percentage of the last unit of damage taken by the target over 3 turns. This damage ignores shields and resistances. In cases when the original damage was very slight, the recurrence may actually empower it.
- Psycho-temporal Contraction - Increases target's action points by 15 and movement points by 30. Lasts 2 turns.
