| Role | Unknown |
The Preacher uses both Blood Magic and Blades to specialize on cruel damage-over-time effects. There is no escape from the torrent of pain heading your way when you face the Preacher. He will Impair and Afflict his enemies over and over again, draining their life force away second by second.
The Deck is good for both group and solo play, focusing on hitting a single target with constantly renewing damage-over-time effects. This strategy can be very effective against strong bosses, which have a wide array of tricks to keep attackers at bay for periods of time. The ability to Impair enemies is also very handy in player-versus-player combat, and seeing opponents die from damage-over-time effects as they try and run to safety never gets old.
