Vasto Roar
Vasto Roar - referred to interchangeably by the developers as 'Hollow Roar' - is a self-buff skill belonging to the Hollow race line. It was auto-granted to eligible Hollow characters with the Update 1 patch on June 21 2026 rather than bought from a skill tree, and the developers instructed players to rejoin a new server for the skill to appear in their kit.
Because it was delivered by a server-side grant, the roll-out needed follow-up fixes: the developers posted that 'Vasto roar should be fixed' on June 21 2026 and again listed 'Vasto roar fixed' in the June 22 2026 bug-fix patch, each time reminding players that a rejoin is required to have the roar (re)applied.
