What Are Pyres?
Pyres are basically a shrine like the potion refill that you interact with to remove Shadow Curse.
When applied,Shadow Curse lowers your armor ratingbased on the amount of Curse Stacks applied by the item.
For example, if you had say200 Armor, but 100 Shadow Curse.
Then your armor rating would be 100.
Cleansing at a Pyre wouldreduce the curse to 50, thus bumping your Armor stat up to 150.
Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 has seven distinct classes.
Here’s our ranking of them!
Unlike other parts of the game such asthe Lightning Bird or Travelling Cook, Pyres are randomly spawning.
