A Patron is a deity which takes the form of a large metallic golem.[1][2] Each team’s base houses a Patron, and victory is secured by defeating the opposing team's Patron, completing the ritual. The Patrons' avatars are spherical, with a golden, mask-like face, and can magically levitate above the ground. During gameplay, the Patrons will comment on player performance, announce any major events, and offer boons that allow players to level up.

Overview[edit | edit source]

Patrons are formidable units that are found hovering around in each team's base. When an opposing hero or Trooper walks within its range, the Patron will unleash a beam of energy at them, dealing very large damage over time. The beam itself is slow moving, and does not lock onto targets unlike the Walker and Guardian beams, which makes it fairly easy to avoid in the right circumstances.

While naturally immune to damage, a Patron can be made vulnerable by destroying the two Shrines located within its base. After they've been destroyed, the Patron's attack will become stronger but also allow it to take damage. After successfully depleting its health bar fully, the Patron will enter a second phase; becoming invulnerable again and moving into a small pit within the base over 16 seconds. Once it has finished travelling, it will become vulnerable again, now a Weakened Patron.

The Patrons are currently the only structures that will slowly regenerate health over time after not being damaged for a brief period. They are also protected by backdoor protection, which increases their health regeneration further when no enemy Troopers are nearby.

Defeating the Patron's first phase does not award any immediate Souls. However, it will release 13 Soul Orbs that add up to 500 Souls total.

Weakened Patron[edit | edit source]

In its second phase, the Patron will enter its Weakened form, losing its limbs and hovering inside the pit of its team's base. In this weakened state, the Patron has an effect similar to Torment Pulse and damages Troopers and heroes around it. Similar to Mid Boss, the Patron is also immune to all incoming damage from outside the pit, forcing players to get in close if they want to damage it.

Lore[edit | edit source]

According to the lore, Patrons are gods who petition players to participate in battles, called Rituals. Each Patron must form a covenant with 6 players in hopes of being summoned to walk amongst them.[1][2]
