Tips for using Free Fire MAX OB33 mystery character's ability: Swordsman's Wrath

Users can check out these pointers to use Swordsman's Wrath more efficiently:

1) They should consider the shield as a temporary mobile gloo wall.

2) Gamers can keep moving around so that the shield always faces the enemy. While in motion, they should get the camera angle and aim at the enemy's head. As soon as they press the fire button, the shield will disappear, and they'll be able to take down the foe.

3) It can be difficult to use in intense fight situations. However, practice can help users nail its proper execution in such a scenario.

4) Players should not stay open for long as the shield lasts only 6 seconds at its maximum level. They may try using a gloo wall or get behind a solid cover before the shield vanishes.

5) Gamers should always keep in mind that the shield doesn't block the weapon damage completely. Only 80% of the weapon damage will be blocked. The rest of the 20% will be pretty unpleasant.

6) The mystery character + Kelly + Shirou + Maxim is likely to be the best skill combination for this character.

Note: There is no guarantee that this mystery character will be in the Free Fire (MAX version) after the update. This article solely reflects the author's views.
