PC Portrait for RustPortrait

Rust

Rust on the Harbour is a former pirate who gave up a life at sea because it was far too wet. Now trying life as an adventurer on land, he’ll lend his roguish skills to anyone who can give him that which his heart desires most: one gold piece.

Changes

Rust is potentially a reworked champion in the Ahghairon’s Day event on 7 August 2024.

Only abilities that have seen some changes will be displayed here - and be aware that there’s a lot of guesswork involved. Some abilities may not have names - some may have the wrong names - or specialisations might not be marked as such - etc.. Focus on the effect data itself.

Please do me a favour and don’t get all melodramatic about what you find here. I - and CNE - don’t appreciate it. These are spoilers and will almost certainly change before release - likely multiple times. That and we don’t have access to any upgrade data prior to release. Making assumptions on how the champions will turn out based on this information would be premature.
