InStar Wars: Hunters, you can choose from three character classes to team up with your allies. Each class offers a unique playstyle based on its primary weapon, ultimate ability, and active and passive abilities. To succeed, you must play each class according to its intended role.
Understanding the strengths and weaknesses of each class is crucial for effective gameplay. This knowledge allows you to maximize the potential of each character, ensuring your team performs at its best. Without a solid grasp of each class type, you will not be able to fully utilize each character, leading to frequent losses.
Damage Class
The damage class specializes ineliminating aggressive opponentsfrom the opposing team. Characters in this class come equipped with abilities, including their main weapons, thatdeal significant damage to single targets.
Theirultimate abilities can potentially achieve a team killif the enemies are caught in a trap or are grouped closely together.With the right strategy, it is possible towipe out the entire teamusing the damage class.
When playing as a damage classcharacter,positioning is crucial. Unlike the tank class, damage characters typicallyhave lower healthandcannot absorb as much damage. Therefore, you should alwaysstrike with melee or ranged attacks while staying close to a tank classcharacter on your team for protection.
Most characters in thedamage class have ranged weapons and abilities. For instance, AranTal, Imara Vex, and Utooni excel as ranged damage dealersand can be utilized effectively without staying close to a tank class character.
Despite having lower health than tank characters, damage classcharacters are equipped with mobility abilitiesto help them escape danger quickly.Aran Tal has a jetpack,Imara Vex uses a grappling hook, and Diago has heightened senses, allowing him to detect approaching enemies and reposition in advance.
The following characters belong to the damage class:
Support Class
Thesupport class character has one primary role: tokeep teammates alive and provide buffs, especially during critical moments like pushing through choke points. Whilethey have medium to long-range weapons, focusing onoffense is not the ideal playstylefor support characters.
Each class has unique abilities and health levels, so positioning is crucial. Thesupport class can be played in two main ways: you caneither stay very close to the tank classcharacter to keep them alive with healing or enhance their defenses and offense with buffs,or you can position yourself behind the tank and damage class, focusing entirely on support without dealing much damage to opponents.
Playing with the first playstyle, where you stick close to the tank,comes with the risk of becoming an easy targetif the tank falls. However,positioning yourself at the back of the teamallows you tokeep everyone alivewhile also dealing burst damage when the opportunity arises.
If you choose thesecond playstyle,Skora is the best character for the job. She has apassive self-healthat restores her health when she is out of combat. During combat, her ultimate ability,Unstable Cocktail, creates a pool that heals all allieswithin it and damages any enemies who enter.
We foundSProcket to be the most balanced support characterin the game. He uses a variety of drones and turrets to heal teammates and deal damage with his deployed equipment.
The current support class roster contains the following characters:
Tank Class
Thetank class in the game has the highest defense and healthcompared to the damage and support classes. This classcan absorb incoming damage from multiple targetsand overpower opponents in one-on-one fights.
TheSentinel is the most balanced tank character, offering bothoffensive and defensive supportto teammates. His ultimate ability,Empire’s Finest, summons two additional stormtroopersthat follow him and fire at the same targets.
Playing as a tank involves holding choke pointsorcharging through narrow corridorswhile absorbing damage and allowing teammates to attack.
All tank characters come withactive and passive abilities that enhance their survivability. While most tank class characters are suited for defensive play,Slingshot is an exception. Slingshot’s ultimate, Rocket Stomp, along with abilities like Unstable Shield and Trickshot,lean towards an offensive playstyle,favoring rushing over playing it safewhile teammates attack.
If anoffensive playstyle is not your preferencefor a tank class character,consider selecting Grozz. His ability,War Cry, restores his health, allowing him tosoak up more incoming damageand maintaincontrol of the battlefieldon his terms
Remember,when playing as a tank class, never roam alone. Alwayslead the pack and distract enemies,drawing their fire away from your teammates. This is the essential strategy for effectively playing a tank class character in the game.
The following characters in the game are from the tank class:
