Objectives. Wherever Dreadnot stops, the surrounding bunkers turn into artillery.
How It Works
Dreadnot is the playtest's only true structure synergy. Every ability she lands is echoed by the bunkers around her, so the same cast does two jobs at once.
Dead Man's Rip Tide gives her something rare: a repositioning tool that doubles as area denial. Teleporting into your own whirlpool is how she survives fights she started.
Strategy
Fight on prepared ground. Dreadnot is a different character standing inside three bunkers than she is in an empty lane.
Use Indomitable to lock a lane rather than to kill. A channel that forces the enemy to walk through fire is worth more than the damage it deals.
Tips
- Vengeance Mine doubles as a bunker trigger — cast it even if it only clips a soldier wave.
- Rip Tide twice: once to zone, once to escape.
- Build Mercenary and Survival items so your structures survive the dive.
FAQ
What does the bunker synergy actually mean?
Dreadnot's abilities trigger every bunker in range, so the same cast deals damage twice — once from her, once from her structures.
Is Dreadnot a carry or a tank?
A carry that holds ground. She scales with farm, but her value comes from the space her bunkers deny.
How do you counter Dreadnot?
Kill the bunkers. Ossuary's Phantom Liberator and Flint's artillery both clear structures from outside her range.
