Hank

By:
Last Updated:

Background: Sent in as part of a special team in Jarban Minor on escort detail, Most of Hank's company was wiped out until they were saved by Nova Terra and her covert ops crew in exchange for their help in extracting terrazine. With nowhere else to turn to for a living; Hank quickly sold his unique talents in the mercenary market that lead him to get sucked into a wormhole leading to the Nexus on his last assignment.

Health: 2815 (+4%/level)
Energy: N/A
Attack Damage: 124 (+4%/level)
Attack Speed: 0.85
Attack Range: 3.5
Armor: 20 (Spell)
Design Philosophy: Hank is a short ranged warrior that can grapple opponents allowing him to close the gap between them and give them a well earned shot in the face. Hank's suit allows him to soak up ability damage for his team and his basic attacks also grant him good wave clear with 75% splash damage. Hank's weakness however is that he is an all-in hero and therefore a well placed grapple must be followed up by his team or he will have just pulled himself to his doom.
