  • Taken directly from the Elder Lumerian

Secondary Variants:

  • Also a decent way to move just a little faster

Imp Skills:

Passive:

• Providence's Rapture
  • Teleports the player to a fixed location on the map, usually very high in the sky
  • Taken from the Imp Boss
  • It is actually broken, but at the same time it adds a bit of strategy to the Imp's Playstyle
    • Teleport to a safe, fixed location.... Which is usually very high in the sky (hence the Fall Damage change)
