Evolution
(Level 16)

Keystone Features

Warrior is an Archetype in Rogue Trader. The Warrior archetype is among the four initial Archetypes accessible from Level 1. Warrior excels in melee combat with unique abilities like a charging attack, damage reduction with Endure, and marking enemies as with Sworn Enemy. The ultimate ability, Daring Breach (Heroic Act), restores action points and movement, boosts agility, and allows unlimited melee attacks. Yet, using the Desperate Measures version has movement penalties and restricts charging for the rest of the combat. Upgrades offer movement bonuses, kill-related benefits, temporary priority target status, and potential damage boosts.

 

Warriors are combatants boasting exceptional melee prowess, capable of dealing high damage in close quarters combat and withstanding heavy amounts of damage. They also excel at drawing enemies‘ attention from less defended allies. 

Core focus: melee, movement and dodge, armour and parry, taunts, soaking damage.
