About Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Winds of Magic

About this DLC

The first expansion for Warhammer: Vermintide 2 brings a brand new enemy faction and new challenges to the game. As a meteor crashes down in the Reikland, Beastmen emerge from the depths of the Reikwald forest and rush to the epicenter to claim it as a Herdstone. It is up to the five heroes to stop them before a dreadful disaster strikes the Empire.

Key features

  • New Enemy Faction: Beastmen - As grotesque hybrids of humans and beasts the Beastmen have the intelligence of a man and the cunning of wild animals. These savage warriors embrace Chaos willingly and will show no compassion or nobility. With profound malice for order and reason, these Children of Chaos want to end the world in bloody carnage.
  • New Higher Difficulty - Cataclysm is back, now even harder.
  • Raised Level Cap - Raised from level 30 to level 35, and with new talents to match.
  • New Progression System - All new, and separate Winds of Magic specific progression system along with Weave Forged versions of all weapon types.
  • 5 New Weapons - One for each hero
    - Kerillian has a shield and spear.
    - Sienna can swing her flames with a flaming flail.
    - Bardin has a new set of throwing axes.
    - Saltzpyre now has a billhook.
    - Kruber can use a heavy spear.
  • New Adventure Level: Dark Omens - Fight the mighty and strong Beastmen together with your friends in a challenging new level.
  • New Game Mode: Winds of Magic - Bring your friends and try to complete a new set of challenges with increasing difficulties in the weaves of the eight Winds of Magic.

    The winds of magic are made up of different “weaves” and will be a combination of:
    - Map: A chunk of an existing adventure map.
    - Wind: The different Winds of Magic will affect and modify the map.
    - Objective: Each map will have a specific objective for players to complete.
    - Finale: If the objective is completed the players will face the final challenge.
    - Difficulty: As players progress the difficulty will increase.

I wouldn't buy this DLC unless it was on sale. It adds a new mode that's pretty cool, but it's played by very few people. It also adds some new weapon types and achievements. A pretty good DLC, but not for full price.

TLDR; Much buy, big worth

I don't know how I didn't come across this game and it's DLC sooner. It's incredible. TONS of value and replay value for the price. Fun solo or with friends

This game rules. Even better with a few friends (though solo you'll find parties easily.) If you're a fan of Warhammer: Fantasy or L4D, you owe it to yourself to give this one a go.

I usually do not purchase warhammer games, because I hate turn based games. This one is a first person shooter, with a little humor. An excellent game. Glad I purchased. I recently bought the first vermintide, and cant wait to play it!

Fanatical offers the best price for an otherwise unlikeable DLC, but its still worth it

Warhammer Vermintide 2 is awesome, making it even cooler is only one member of your party is required to have the DLC and even greater yet, the Fanatical Warhammer sale was a dollar less than direct from Steam. Maybe my least favorite DLC for an otherwise stellar game but the base game. The game mode with it map chunking and change ups definitely adds more but if I didnt get this discount, it wouldnt of been worth it beside maybe the weapons which are okay but not great. Cool concept wish it was executed better, the new enemies are alright, but kind of boring in my opinion too

A solid DLC that doesn't shine though.

Well Beasties are a fun new enemy, weaves are a bit weird but otherwise a solid DLC. The new weapons are also fun tho :)

Beastmen are cool but the rest is not great in my opinion..

The beastmen have a very beautiful design and are very cool overhaul but i don't see them as much as skaven and chaos when i play unfortunately. Also not a huge fan of the wave system as it is right now.
