However in order to unleash its most devastating attacks, it needs to be in the back ranks. If that weren't enough, it's heavily armored and can inflict stuns and knockback. Make sure to bring ranged attackers to protect both the physical and mental health of your heroes.Ī fearsome foe who deals heavy damage to a single hero or to several at once.
