Vanguard
Vanguards are holy warriors whose resilience is unmatched. They willingly throw themselves into the thick of combat...For as enemies attack them, they grow ever stronger, until finally unleashing a vengeful counter attack that repays the enemy tenfold.

Compared to other Operatives, Vanguards have 400 bonus hit points.

Skills:


Defensive Stance - The Vanguard enters a Defensive Stance, gaining damage reduction against melee attacks and providing armor to all allies in a 1200 AoE. However movement speed is reduced and energy is drained while the stance is active.
