[Tactical Role]

The Halberd Elites are the first unit specializing in formation-breaking in Conqueror’s Blade, utilizing long weapons combined with control immunity, hooking attack, and self-healing through kills. Their first skill, „Cloud Cleave,“ strikes deep into shield formations, ignoring defenses to destabilize enemy lines and knock them down, providing a brief block effect when executed, making them line breakers during team fights. The second skill, „Storm Surge,“ introduces an unprecedented pull-control ability combined with temporary immunity to control, pulling enemies into the allies‘ circle for a focused attack advantage. Empowered by their passive skill, „Decapitate for Title,“ Halberd Elites grow stronger as they continue to eliminate foes, embodying the fearless tradition of earning ranks based on battlefield prowess reminiscent of Qin’s tactical bravery.

On the battlefield, the Halberd Elites excel as frontline initiators, proficient at disrupting shield formations, particularly effective against shield-bearing enemy units. They serve as potent instruments for creating offensive opportunities and dismantling stalemates. When faced with steadfast enemy shield walls or when outnumbered in the heat of battle, they may become the crucial force needed to break through defenses and turn the tide of war.
