Seven archetypes
Warrior
A hero’s class decides two things that matter more than its stats: which upgrade pool it draws from at rank A and again at rank S, and which relics and items are built to support it. Seven classes, four heroes each, and a shared pool per class — so two heroes of the same class compete for the same upgrades. Each page below lists the heroes, both upgrade pools in full, and every relic and item that carries the class name.
Updated for patch 0.5.10
Logan and nobody else
Logan is the one Warrior in the nine tier list builds. He plays in Rush Duelists Stack, rated S, with The Juggernaut, Fight and Win and a Warrior's Greataxe, which gains 12 Attack each time its Warrior survives a fight (10 before 0.5.2). No build carries a Warrior relic or borrows the class, although three specs grant it: The Sniper on Hoyoung, The Frostbite on Karsu and The Brisk on Sal.
Timed for Rush
The four Warriors average 44.25 base Attack, seven points above the Vanguards, and their upgrade list is written around Rush windows. Hit Hard, Hit Fast doubles Attack for Rush (8), Critical Aggression doubles Crit for Rush (10), Rush Strength adds 2 Attack to every Warrior for each Rush trigger, and Rush Overdrive stretches each Rush ability by 3 seconds.
Each Warrior also owns a spec that reaches the whole class and keeps working from the reserves: The Champion on Reyna, The Iron on Logan, The Sharp on Tilly and The Intrepid on Kai all carry Backup. Martial Backup Prism pays for that with 20 Attack to all heroes for each rank of every benched Warrior.
Relics trimmed in 0.5.2
Warrior's Bloodshield Engine, the class legendary, gives every hero 50 Attack and each Warrior lasting Shields worth 10% of its damage, down from 15%. The same patch cut Warrior's Sundering Filigree from 20 to 15 Defense removed per Crit during Rush (8). Warrior's Emblem needs only one Warrior to add 50 Crit to auto attacks, while Warrior's Memento grows with a second, adding 2 seconds to Rush abilities per Warrior in combat.
