Overall
Saurus is built around an uninterruptible skill chain. War Strike and Burst Strikes each reset the other's cooldown when completed without interruption, creating an endless melee loop. Each uninterrupted skill completion stacks a permanent attack and defense buff on Saurus, shared in full to all allies. His phase form creates a duplicate that copies his abilities and triggers the same stacking mechanic, accelerating the ramp. At maximum stacks, he begins regenerating health every second, and each subsequent uninterrupted skill heals the entire team. He takes reduced damage while actively using his chained skills. The whole system is binary — if any skill gets interrupted, all stacks drop and the engine resets. Burst Strikes also deal percentage-based current health damage, giving him scaling against tanky targets.
Skills
Phase Form
UltimateCreates a phased duplicate that copies several of Saurus's abilities at reduced damage. Activating this also generates a shield that persists until the duplicate disappears.
War Strike
ActiveAoE spear sweep hitting nearby enemies, then a heavy single-target strike that stuns the nearest enemy. Completing this attack without interruption resets Burst Strikes' cooldown.
Burst Strikes
ActiveMulti-hit AoE attack hitting all enemies in range, dealing bonus damage based on each target's current health. Completing this without interruption resets War Strike's cooldown, enabling continuous attack chains.
Relentless
PassiveEach time Saurus or his phase form completes War Strike or Burst Strikes uninterrupted, his attack and defense ratings increase, stacking up to 5 times. All allies receive the full stat increase. Any skill interruption ends the effect.
