Bloodline Champions is a free-to-play action game developed by the Swedish company Stunlock Studios.
[4] The objective is different depending on the game mode, ranging from team deathmatch and capture-the-flag to map point control.
The Bloodline Medallion allows a champion to recover an increasing amount of HP over a period of time and Resurrect revives nearby fallen teammates.
Both items require a significant amount of uninterrupted time to prepare, which makes them impractical in immediate combat.
Bloodline Champions also features fog of war which represents the areas of the map which cannot be seen due to visual obstruction or distance.
Healers, as the title implies, keep their allies alive through a mix of powerful control and healing abilities.
They have the lowest health of all bloodlines and generally lack mobility options other characters enjoy.
The artifacts can be carried and thrown, but lifting one from its starting position takes time and can be interrupted by attacks.
A team wins by either killing all the enemy champions while they cannot respawn, or holding the capture points for a set amount of time.
Players earn Blood Coins and spend them on additional Bloodlines, titles, avatars and other visual perks.
Funcom Points serve the same purpose as Blood Coins, but they are bought using real currency instead of earned through in-game accomplishments.
