Breaking down Hero Hunter in The Strongest Battlegrounds

Overview

Rampage mode (Image via Roblox)

Hero Hunter utilizes skills that his counterpart from the source material is known for, focusing particularly on grab-based melee strikes in his skills. This character is a melee fighter, featuring no skills or moves that extend beyond close range. While this may make him vulnerable in battle, he can offset this flaw by making use of his HP regeneration abilities.

His passive ability allows him to regenerate up to 50% HP based on the skill used to finish off an opponent. Regular skill finishers grant him 20%-40% HP, while The Final Hunt skill regenerates half of his health bar.

Like the other fighters in the game, he gets access to an Awakening mode called Rampage, which can be activated upon filling the Mode gauge. Once activated, the Mode bar will constantly drain. Once this is depleted, he reverts to his ordinary state. The Awakening animation has a shockwave that pushes back enemies and causes their armor to break.

Being a grappling character, it’s important to ensure you are within an arm’s range of the opponent during battles. Effective usage of the Hero Hunter demands that you pursue the opponent relentlessly until either the opposing combatant or you are eliminated.
