Within the Warhammer world, adeptus arbites is the organization responsible for enforcing the imperialis lex, so its mission is to persecute heretics and traitors for all worlds controlled by the Empire. Their methods are brutal, disciplined and expeditious, they have been granted the right to serve as judges, jurors and executioners, and their action focuses on individuals that involve an internal threat. The Imperial Guard is responsible for the external. As arbitrator, players must return the order to Tertium accompanied by the R-VR cyber dog and a selection of new weapons.
The arbitrator arrives at Warhammer 40,000: Darktide with the possibility of creating a unique specimen freely mixing more than 80 talent nodes or choosing one of the three different combat styles offered by the game's talent trees. Among its strengths we have the ability to control crowds and access to the Nuncio Aquila technology, which according to the official description consists of «anti -ravency vox platforms that amplify» arbitrator orders and «overwhelms opponents of weak will.»
Fatshark presents the arbitrator as «the first combination of defense and remote attack in Darktide», a role that exercises thanks to the reinforced assault shield that can combine with the Dominator Maza or the gun-scope. To this we must add R-VR, a cyber dog that can be directed against enemies to disable priority objectives or support the team. «It's not a pet, it's a terrifying weapon,» says Fatshark. At customization level, this class has six voices with three different personalities, as well as cosmetics for the dog, the character and weapons.
