GameplayMore firework than firearm, the Fire Lance is a curious weapon. Devastating at close range, its wielder can simply “fire and forget” as they close ranks with the enemy, before turning their literal boomstick into a crude but effective cudgel. Liao’s Rangers have taken this tactic to the extreme, and can to order a point-blank
Bludgeon shot to soak up increased amounts of incoming ranged damage, before cracking skulls and taking names with a withering Blunt attack. A unit of Liao’s Rangers doesn’t deviate much from the Fire Lancer template, but you get more proverbial bang for your buck.
ProgressionLiao’s Rangers have a maximum unit level of 30, with Veterancy Points investable across two branches. The top branch generally improves the unit’s Fire Lance ability, later unlocking and augmenting the
Blast skill. The lower branch favours the unit’s melee abilities by increasing
Bludgeon damage and reducing the skill’s cooldown.
Just the facts: Liao’s Rangers (5-star, cavalry)
