Cavern Collapse
From Abernon
Cavern Collapse is the Evil alignment ability of the Gloomwarden class. It sits in the separate alignment ability slot and unlocks when the player chooses an alignment.
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Class | Gloomwarden |
| Alignment | Evil |
| Resource cost | All current Resonance |
| Mechanic | Releases all stored Resonance as a concussive shockwave — all enemies within 10m are STUNNED for 2 seconds and take damage equal to 200% of the Resonance value stored at moment of release. Maximum possible damage: 850 (matching Deep Zone 100 boss tier). The Gloomwarden's Resonance resets to 0 after use. The more damage the Gloomwarden has absorbed before releasing, the more devastating the output. |
| Damage | 200% of current Resonance value (capped at 850) + STUN 2sec to all in range |
| Healing | Not recorded |
| Duration | Not recorded |
| Cooldown | 55 seconds |
| Range | Not recorded |
| PvP note | STUN reduced to 1 second in PvP. Damage cap reduced to 600 in PvP. |
| Notes | Creates the Evil Gloomwarden's defining play pattern: absorb damage deliberately to charge Resonance, then detonate. Pairs catastrophically with any encounter where the Gloomwarden faces sustained, high-damage attacks. |
| Lore | The Gloomwarden has been absorbing damage this entire time. It was never patience. It was preparation. |
