Swarm-That-Walks Mythic Path Guide
How to unlock:
At the beginning of Chapter 2, don’t take the queen with you on the crusade.
After Leper’s Smile, take a sample of the bug goop from the Vescavor Queen. Use it in the battle for Drezen (if the queen is with you she will veto your order to do so)
At the beginning of chapter 3, you’ll get a quest to find a nascent vescavor queen in Drezen. Find it (it’s in one of the houses), but don’t kill it.
After defeating Xanthir Vang, ask him about how he became a swarm, then pick up his notes in the room. This will unlock a crusade project that takes 14 days. Complete it. This will trigger a scene with Anevia where she tells you that your companions are concerned about your research into swarms. Pick any option besides “I don’t know what came over me.”
At the beginning of chapter 5, you have to go back to the vescavor queen (same house as in chapter 3) and devour her.
Swarm-That-Walks Features
Your companions will leave you after you turned into swarms.
Your army will be replaced by swarm units.
Swarm Infest: You send a part of your swarm to infest an enemy. It makes the target blind and deals 8d8 physical damage each round. This damage increases by 2d8 for each point of your swarm size. If the target dies while under this effect. it’s automatically devoured. When the ability ends (by activating Swarm Form ability), you are healed for the amount of damage you’ve dealt to the enemy with Swarm Infest. Additionally, the target must make a Will saving throw (DC = 15 + double your mythic rank) or become panicked. Using this ability cancels Swarm Form.
Swarm Feast: Your swarm flies out of your body and starts attacking all enemies in 50 feet radius. Every round all enemies in the area are dealt (4 plus your swarm size) d6 physical damage. If they die while in the area, they arc automatically devoured. Any ranged or ranged touch attacks against you have a 50% chance to miss.
Swarm Clone: You gain the ability to make your own clones using the swarm. They have all your abilities, but separate inventory. You can simultaneously have one clone per three points of your swarm size.
