EXCALIBUR

Excalibur epitomizes the warrior spirit. His master swordsmanship deals high damage. He is the embodiment of martial excellence.

Excalibur is a beginner-friendly melee brawler who parks in Exalted Blade and swings his energy sword through crowds while Chromatic Blade turns that damage into a high-status elemental wave. He is not a nuker or a CC king, he is a self-sufficient frontline blender that stays relevant into Steel Path through sheer weapon-mode damage and easy survivability mods rather than flashy ability combos.

EXCALIBUR PRIME

Excalibur Prime is the epitome of mobility and offense, and features the same abilities as Excalibur, but has unique mod polarities installed allowing for greater customization.

Excalibur is a beginner-friendly melee brawler who parks in Exalted Blade and swings his energy sword through crowds while Chromatic Blade turns that damage into a high-status elemental wave. He is not a nuker or a CC king, he is a self-sufficient frontline blender that stays relevant into Steel Path through sheer weapon-mode damage and easy survivability mods rather than flashy ability combos.
