Description

  • Hit Points: Low
  • Damage: High
  • Primary Powers: Ranged
  • Secondary Powers: Support

The Blaster is an offensive juggernaut. This hero can deal a ton of damage from a distance. But the Blaster must be careful, because he's somewhat fragile compared to other heroes. The Blaster can't stand toe to toe with most opponents at melee for long. His best defense is a great offense!


Summary

Blasters have excellent ranged damage and the highest overall damage output per second of all of the archetypes. They are also the most fragile, as their attacks (especially area-effect attacks) draw large amounts of aggro, and they have low hit points and few means of mitigating damage other than defeating their opponents rapidly.

Blasters work very well paired with Tanks, and sometimes also Defenders or Controllers. Scrappers tend not to be able to hold aggro well enough to keep them alive.

Blasters have the following Powersets:
