Class: Rockbreaker

Big fist gauntlet hero

Overview

Rockbreakers unleash relentless power through the Gauntlets, chaining rapid jabs into precise uppercuts that culminate in the devastating Powderkeg Punch. Their combat rhythm hinges on landing high-impact Enders: complete a ground combo, detonate a charged haymaker, then juggle targets for sustained single-target melt. Vulnerable during the wind-up yet unmatched when it lands, the Rockbreaker rewards calculated aggression and mastery of timing to dominate bosses and brawls alike.
