What Dark is like
Dark is the other Legendary (4.5% rarity chance), priced at 25,000,000 Yul — 15M cheaper than World Tree.
Maxbit: “Amazing cooldowns and sustained DPS making it the top 3 Grimoire in Clover Legends. It's also got great CCs and good range.” Faceless ranks Dark above World Tree within his S group.
Its kit is about controlling position: a creature attack to open, a pull that groups enemies, a heavy slam, and a slashing special.
Dark moves
| Slot | Move | What it does / when to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Z | Unnamed in source | A werewolf-like creature attacks a selected target. |
| X | Unnamed in source | Broad effect that draws enemies inward — sets up the group. |
| C | Unnamed in source | Large slam; best right after X has grouped enemies. |
| V | Unnamed in source | Special that slashes around enemies; described as the strongest move. |
Reported Roles read from Faceless's Sep 13 showcase (Dark section from 0:49).
