BEASTCALLER
(Showcase of the Beastcaller Class in Magic: Legends)
The Beastcaller is the embodiment of primal might and savagery. Vanquish hordes of foes on the battlefield with crushing blows from your massive spirit axe, while coordinating your attacks with an Aether Fox companion – and other summoned beasts. This class has synergies with the GREEN MANA type but just like any other class can use decks with spells of all mana types. Planeswalkers who choose to play as the Beastcaller class will start with the Green Deck starter, which includes 12 green spells. The class has two permanent passive bonuses:
- +375 Creature Damage Potency
- +375 Creature Health Potency
Active Abilities
Each class has 3+1 Active Abilities that help define that character alongside a set of passive abilities & a passive trait. The active abilities are a spammable Primary attack combo, a Secondary attack that has a cooldown, a Utility/escape skill, and a “ultimate” Spark Power. Out of those 4 the ultimate is unlocked at level 6, while the other 3 can be used as soon as you start the game.
- Primary: Wind Slash – Cleave nearby foes with your aether axe.
- Secondary: Rending Throw – Hurl an axe to damage and Mark foes in front of you. Killing Marked foes restores health to you and your companion.
- Utility: Wild Roar – Heal yourself and your Companion instantly plus an additional amount over 6 seconds, and teleport it to your location. It applies Taunt to your foes and gets +2/+2 for 6 seconds.
- Spark Power: Bestial Fury (Spark Meter Cost: 120/sec) – Summon a 5/5 Aether Fox with Trample to fight by your side as long as this power is active. Additionally, deal periodic damage to nearby foes. Whenever you deal damage to nearby foes this way, Aether Fox deals its damage to that foe.
You may not cast spells or use class abilities while this power is active.
Mana Surge
Every class gets a Mana Surge active ability at level 3 that uses the spark power charge before the “ultimate” Spark Power gets unlocked at lvl 6. After the Spark Power unlock, players can still use Mana Surge when the Spark Power is not fully charged. Mana Surge gives the following buff: Gain 3 mana over 6 seconds, then draw a spell card.
Levelup & Passives
Each hero gets various passive upgrades to their active abilities as well as general passives that are not linked to a specific ability as they level up. Those passives get unlocked at the following lvls: 4, 7, 10, 15, 22 (refer to the image above for those)
Trait
Reaching level 30 on each class unlocks a passive trait specific to that class which can be slotted into one of the 3 Trait Slots alongside 2 more traits from other classes. The Beastcaller‘s Trait is:
♦Primal Rage – While this trait is slotted, casting a Sorcery causes your strongest creature to inflict 100% Power as damage to enemies that attack it for 10 seconds.
