Phoenix Labs Reveals Dauntless' New Behemoth, The Stony Skarn
The newest addition to Dauntless' Behemoth roster is the Skarn, a rocky beast native to arid sky-islands. There's a delightful story about a band of hunters' first engagement with the Behemoth on the Dauntless website, but not much more in the way of concrete details. Concrete ... get it? Because it's made of stone!
The pictures do seem to indicate that the Skarn has a soft underside, and targeting that will certainly be the goal of daring hunters. While doing so, you can also take in its natural habitat, described as a "large island the colour of rust and blood."
The Skarn is just one of two Behemoths Phoenix Labs has promised players as part of the December Sharpen Your Skills update, along with a new weapon, new progression system, and new equipment augmentation system. You can view that, along with everything else to come, on the Dauntless development roadmap.
