A clone of might, a booming laugh, With charges primed, he's on his path. For Bad Batch brothers, he'll stand tall, And blast through walls, demolishing all.
NAME: Wrecker (Mercenary)
ALIGNMENT: Light Side
CATEGORIES: Tank, Bad Batch, Mercenary
------
Key Attributes:
- Tank for the new Bad Batch squad (Thicc Tank)
- Wrecker will dispel buffs from a single enemy using his Basic ability, Haymaker
- Wrecker provides Turn Meter manipulation throughout his kit
Inspiration:
- The third season of the Bad Batch had Wrecker (and Hunter) as Mercenaries, so it made sense to make these two characters Mercenaries in their kits based on that season
- Although the animation for Special 2, Improvised Weapon, is technically taken from Season 2 Episode 9, The Crossing, we felt it was “too Wrecker” to not include here (Turn sound on)
Strategy Tips:
- Wrecker’s Special 2, Improvised Weapon, should be used strategically in battle to prevent losing stacks of Target Practice by hitting multiple targets
- Tenacity mods will make it harder to remove stacks of Soldier of Fortune from Wrecker
- As his SoF stacks get higher it gets harder and harder to remove them from him
FAQ:
- How do I acquire Wrecker?
- Wrecker is the penultimate character in the Era of the Cavalry. His Marquee event begins on Feb 25, 2025 at 11a Pacific.
- With his Omicron, when he revives an ally do they go back into Captive before they are defeated again?
- No, each Bad Batch character can only gain Captive once.
