Steed Charge is a Utility Crusader skill, unlocked at level 13.

In-game

While active, increases movement speed by +150% (normally to 250-275%), but prevents from using any other skills for 0.4 seconds. The warhorse can carry the Crusader through enemies, objects and doors, and frees from all kind of Crowd Control effects, but cannot carry through the impassable terrain.

Runes

  • Ramming Speed: also deals 515% damage per tick (not per hit) and knocks away enemies through which the warhorse charges.
  • Nightmare: the warhorse also leaves a trail of fire that deals 550% damage per tick as Fire and lasts 4 seconds.
  • Rejuvenation: while active, also heals the Crusader for 7.5% of maximum Life per second.
  • Endurance: increases the duration to 3 seconds.
  • Draw and Quarter: up to 5 enemies within 15 yards of the Crusader are bound with chains when the Steed Charge is activated, being dragged with the Crusader for the entire duration, dealing 185% damage as Holy per second to each. Does not affect enemies immune to Knockback, and counts as Knockback for the duration.

Non-rune enhancements

  • Swiftmount (Legendary Flail): doubles the duration of Steed Charge, including secondary effects of Rejuvenation rune.

Development

The Steed Charge ability was conceptualized in sync with the Crusader's "knight in battle-scarred armor" ethos.[1]
