Hope you enjoy the OT here, it was so fun designing it; this is actually the first thread I've done graphics for so hope people like them. Cornbread did a great job adding more info and details to it too. We'll all be playing the Anthem Demo in 24 hours from this post going live so it's not long to wait now until we're flying across the world of Anthem, raining down missiles as the Ranger, casting devastating elemental abilities as the Storm, getting up close and personal as the Interceptor and tanking all the damage as the Colossus. I can't wait to see what you all think of the game once you've jumped in.
If you all wanted to see that lil'ResetEra logo I Anthem-afied in the first graphic box then here it is:
Not long until the Demo now, I can't wait to jump in myself and start gathering info on the Abilities in the game for the updated version of
. If you want to help please send me screenshots of any abilities you pick up as loot;
. Any help would be hugely appreciated in getting the next version of the Damage Chart out while the VIP Demo is happening.
I'll continue to update this post with any interesting findings or releases in regards to Javelin Abilities over the course of the demos. Enjoy everyone!

Ability Damage Chart
This past week or so I've been making some resources for the Anthem community; mostly about the abilities your Javelin can use. First is my Ability Damage Chart which shows you all the Javelins and their abilities:
Now available in both
Light and
Dark modes, this chart is compiled from a variety of sources such as the VIP Demo, Anthem Website and Developer Livestreams.
All Javelin Abilities Video Series
To supplement this Ability Damage Chart I have created 4 videos, each focusing on 1 of the Javelins, looking at all their abilities and showing them off visually for people who saw the Chart but wanted to actually see what the abilities did and looked like in game. All footage in these videos was recorded during last weekends VIP Demo:
So that's all 4 Javelins,
Ranger,
Colossus,
Storm and
Interceptor. These videos are all short, around 4 minutes each and get to the point as fast as possible. You can skip to 47 seconds in any of them to jump straight to the start of the section talking about abilities.
