Started the game, and… bro looks like Kingpin with no aura

Hiya there! Just a few thoughts and possible guesses as to the new items in Dungeons II:

In Image 1, there seems to be a new Hammer weapon, looks somewhat like it belongs in a Blacksmith-type area, and Valorie's wearing armour (notably without the helmet, based off leaks apparently armour is divided into four pieces in this game). There also seems to be some kind of Power Bow variant, maybe not a unique but something else. There's also a new Scythe (my personal favourite, I've wanted a new Scythe weapon since the SOUL Scythe is super slow, hoping this thing makes improvements on it).

Now Image 2 is interesting; all characters seem to be wearing full sets. The first one is almost definitely Soul-related, if the blue fire indicates anything. Since Soul mobs are a thing in this game, I believe there'll likely be new buffs involving dealing increased damage to or taking less damage from Soul mobs. They're also armed with a crossbow (also a lot of these weapons seem to be 3D rendered now. Sweet!). The second plater seems to have Sickles and Swamp-Based gear, their head seems to have a greenish hue so maybe they're wearing a slime head. Now the third player has what appears to be Deep-Dark based gear; it resembles one of the Great-Hunger like mobs in the intro scene. Perhaps it buffs damage to Sculk mobs. The last one is the Redstone-Monstrosity type armour, which from my best guess may be a Unique, with the ordinary one being the Redstone Golem. Maybe it can summon redstone cubes as pets? Or even fire those mines to blow things up. It's also got an accompanying cudgel, so seems we might be getting Armour-Weapon coordinated sets (and also maybe more boss inspired armour?)

For Image 3, the players seem to be using two artifacts; a green-aura totem on one end and a blue Soul based one by Valorie. My best guess, based off the Soul mobs in the radius being surrounded by soul energy, is that this either acts as a Soul Wind horn, since the Soul mobs appear to have been moved to the edge of the soul energy-circle formed, or it exclusively targets Soul mobs for a later attack. The artifact might also instantly kill normal mobs, since several ordinary mobs appear to have been killed at the same time prior to the screenshot.

Just my thoughts, would be curious to see what you guys think!
