Player Notes

  • With either "Fire Damage" or "Chill" evolutions, Electrical Hammer can set up or detonate fire / cryo explosions respectively. This makes Krogan Warlord especially effective when playing with tech characters.
  • Having radius evolutions will allow a large number of enemies within a large distance to be hit (up to 4 max). This will soften the targets up a little bit, and allow for an easier time for the Krogan Warlord to melee enemies in rapid succession. It will also allow tech combos to be much more effective when rank 6 evolution radius and combo is taken.
  • Chill damage is a very effective way to make tougher enemies more vulnerable to your attacks, as well as aid your team in killing anybody exposed to your chilling hammer.
  • With Fire Damage, one can disrupt a Hunter or Phantoms tactical cloak for a few seconds, giving the team precious seconds to target and kill said foes.
