Troopers are common offensive units summoned by the Patron. They are the primary force for pushing lanes and early Soul farming.
Overview[edit | edit source]
Troopers appear to be small humanoid golems with a large burning candle atop their head. In combat, the amount of wax on the candle directly reflects the amount of health a trooper has. There are 3 types of basic troopers; Ranged Troopers, Melee Troopers and Banner Troopers.
Troopers serve as the primary means to pushing lanes, appearing in waves of 4 every 25 seconds. These waves consist of 2 Ranged Troopers, 1 Melee Trooper and 1 Banner Trooper. Troopers enter lanes by riding Ziplines in a vessel, which can be shot down to force them to drop early. Once on the ground, troopers will attempt to move down the lane, attacking other enemy troopers, heroes and structures on the way. Troopers take reduced damage from enemy Guardians, Walkers and the Patron to act as a frontline for players looking to push lanes.
During laning phase, troopers are also the most reliable source of Souls. Like most units, slain troopers will grant a small amount of souls on-kill, and release a soul orb to claim the full amount. In 2-person lanes, the souls earned for slain troopers (the trooper, plus the soul orb if secured), are awarded to each person in full.
Troopers gradually gain spirit resistance, reaching 30% resistance at 25 minutes, and 70% at 50 minutes.
Math[edit | edit source]
When slain, each Trooper gives total souls based on the following formula:
, with 60% on last hit and 40% in the soul orb.
Ranged Trooper[edit | edit source]
Ranged Troopers are the most common type of trooper. They deal damage in a short range, resorting to melee if the player gets too close.
Melee Trooper[edit | edit source]
Melee Troopers are faster and tougher units that can only attack at close range.
Banner Trooper[edit | edit source]
Banner Troopers (or Medic Troopers) are a special type of trooper that can heal nearby heroes and other troopers. They have two healing charges that recharge every 35 seconds, and have a 6 second delay between casts. Healing bursts have a 15m range, and heals 80 HP to troopers and 40 HP to allied heroes (80 HP after Laning Phase).
Super Troopers[edit | edit source]
All 3 basic troopers have stronger "Super" variants, which start spawning while a team is in possession of a Rejuvenator. These super troopers are tougher and deal more damage.
