This is really just a good way to focus on grinding out levels and getting loot quickly rather than having to sit through multiplayer queues and load times. Each round has random modifiers based on difficulty level, such as your opponent regenerating health or you slowly losing health throughout the entire fight. All that happens is you queue up for Quests and take on four rounds of enemies. It’s a simple game mode without the frills and window-dressing of other content to try and force a story where there isn’t one.

This mode is for single player or co-op only as you fight against a series of AI-controlled enemies. Rounding out the paid offering as part of the Marching Fire expansion is an all-new player-versus-environment (PvE) Arcade mode. It’s a shame that the Wu Lin clan don’t have any new Story mode content to go with their inclusion, because the lore seems ripe for exploring. If you’re looking for a dueling specialist, Nuxia is definitely the standout of the new bunch. With Nuxia, you can do similar flourishes, but she can also cancel her heavy attacks into a guard-breaking assault that’s extremely useful against shielded opponents. He’s got enough defense to stand up to some big hits and can do some real damage in group fights, making him a great choice for the new Breach mode. It’s fairly easy to bait opponents into attacking, dodge to the side, and strike swiftly. Tiandi is the easiest to pick up and play with quickly if you’re looking for something fresh due to his simple chain attacks and ability to attack while dodging. On October 30th, all players will be able to unlock the new Wu Lin faction using 15,000 steel (in-game currency).Īll four of the new heroes bring something unique to the table, but Tiandi and Nuxia are real standouts. There’s the single-sword wielding Tiandi, a Vanguard hero that mixes up strong frontal assaults with shifty dodge-based attacks a polearm carrying Jiang Jun, a Heavy hero that packs a ton of damage at the expense of speed the dual hook sword armed Nuxia, an Assassin hero that can quickly get in and out of range and stay agile and the staff-wielding Shaolin, a Hybrid warrior monk hero that can shift his monkey-like fighting style to charge up powerful reaction attacks. The Marching Fire Expansion adds in four more heroes to the mix that hail from the China-themed Wu Lin clan.
#FOR HONOR WALLPAPER MENU MARCHING FIRE UPDATE#
While the actual expansion itself only contains the new AI enemy-focused Arcade mode and Early Access to the new Wu Lin clan of heroes, the free update for all players adds in a bevy of graphical improvements, a brand new gear/perk system, and the wonderfully chaotic Breach mode. The release is split into two similarly named (and a bit confusing) pieces of content: the Marching Fire Update and the Marching Fire Expansion. “ For Honor’s” Marching Fire release is the best thing to happen to the history-remixing melee brawl ever since it first released back in February of last year.
