Overview
The party's anchor: it drags enemies in with pulls, holds their attention with threat-building strikes and soaks hits behind blocks and shields. Its damage is modest, but stuns, knockdowns and party shields make it very hard to remove from a fight.
Strengths
- Highest survivability of the eight classes
- Ranged pulls and taunts to control enemies
- Party shields and damage redirection
Weaknesses
- Lowest damage, so solo play is slow
- Holding threat on many enemies takes practice
