INAROS

Inaros commands the fearsome desert. He survives like the ever-shifting sands that empower him. Legend recalls Inaros as the Fear-Eater.

Inaros is a pure health-tank frontliner with no shields: you stack Health, Armor, and Ability Strength until he effectively cannot die, then stand in the open face-tanking hits while Desiccation and Scarab Swarm drain and lock down the room. He is built for survival and crowd control in Steel Path, not burst damage, so pair him with a real weapon or Sandstorm's status procs to actually kill things.
