Projects a cone of light that damages enemies within its reach. Position the cone to catch an approaching opponent without stepping farther into their team's firing lines than the attack requires.
Super1 options
Artwork unavailableMONTAGEDetails
Projects a shield in front of Buster that blocks incoming enemy projectiles and reflects energy back toward opponents. Face the relevant firing line and give allies room behind the shield; it is not a promise of protection against every kind of damage.
Gadgets2 options
UTILITY BELTDetails
Heals Buster and nearby allies; the amount scales with the number of allies in his Super-charging area. Activate it when teammates can actually benefit.
SLO-MO REPLAYDetails
Makes Buster's next main attack pull enemies closer. Choose a target your team can handle at the new distance.
Star Powers2 options
BLOCKBUSTERDetails
Increases Buster's main-attack damage for each ally in his Super-charging area. Coordinate proximity without giving the enemy an easy clustered target.
KEVLAR VESTDetails
Reduces damage and prevents knockback, slows and stuns while Buster's Super is active. Keep its direction and timing relevant to the incoming threat.
Hypercharge1 options
PLOT ARMORDetails
Extends the shield around Buster and increases the damage of reflected projectiles. The wider coverage helps when shots arrive from several angles, but it does not turn the shield into universal immunity.
Traits1 options
The options below may not be a complete list.
Artwork unavailableAlly ProximityDetails
Staying near teammates charges the Super. Maintain useful supporting distance without making the team an easy target for area attacks.
Gears6 options
DAMAGEDetails
Increases damage while the Brawler is below half health. The extra pressure is conditional, not a reason to remain in a losing exchange.
GADGET COOLDOWNDetails
Reduces the wait between Gadget uses. Choose it when repeated access to the selected Gadget meaningfully supports the fight.
HEALTHDetails
Improves health recovery. Leave enough room for natural recovery to begin instead of expecting the Gear to erase damage during continued attacks.
SHIELDDetails
Adds a consumable shield that recovers while the Brawler is at full health. Preserve recovery time between fights to restore the extra protection.
SPEEDDetails
Increases movement speed in bushes. Its value depends on having useful bush routes rather than simply equipping it on an open map.
VISIONDetails
Briefly reveals hidden opponents after you damage them. It helps track targets entering bushes, but does not reveal invisibility granted by abilities.
Buster supports a coordinated advance with close-range pressure and a directional projectile-blocking Super. Nearby teammates help his kit, but standing together should serve a purpose rather than create an easy group target. Face the actual incoming threat and remember that protection from one direction does not make every angle safe.
