Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 developer The Chinese Room today released another deep dive for their highly-anticipated RPG. This time, the team spoke about Tremere and everything players can expect if they decide to choose this clan in terms of playstyle, abilities, combat and more.
Tremere are just one of the playable clans in the game in addition to Brujah, Banu Haqim and Ventrue. So what makes them different? Well, Tremere clan can use their arcane powers to control their own Blood and the blood of their foes. The devs describe them "a ranged, glass-cannon type" with "the clan abilities are focused around supporting that playstyle."
Their abilities and playstyle allow you to keep your distance in combat, firing off projectiles, making the enemy's blood boil or cursing them for additional damage.
Tremere clan abilities
Corrosive Touch
Clan Passive: Bodies will dissolve away after being fed on.
Cauldron of Blood
Torture your victim by boiling their blood slowly from the inside, making them drop to their knees screaming. Nearby enemies/civilians are drawn to their screams.
Recall
- First Use: Mark your current location with a ward.
- Second Use: Deconstruct yourself, and explosively reconstruct yourself at the marked location obliterating any enemies standing in that spot.
Blood Curse
Curse a victim. The next time they take damage, their body swells horrifically and they explode, doing damage to all around them.
Blood Salvo
Conjure a set of blood daggers that can be thrown at enemies.
Greed
Clan Perk: A chance when feeding, that the last used ability receives twice as much blood, increasing the rate you can perform abilities.
The devs also talked more about the Tremere Disciplines, which include Auspex (the supernatural ability to become aware of more than meets the eye), Dominate (the power to mesmerize and control the actions of others) and Blood Sorcery (the ability to control blood with your arcane knowledge).
In case you are not familiar with Bloodlines 2, the game is a successor to the cult-classic Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines.
It's set in the dark underbelly of Seattle, where vampires struggle for survival and supremacy. Bloodlines 2 is coming in Autumn 2024 to PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
