Gunbreaker (Xae's Solders)

Gunbreakers are fighters who have mastered the use of a unique weapon known as the gunblade. This weapon combines a sword with a firearm, allowing gunbreakers to unleash devastating attacks from both close and long range. Gunbreakers are known for their precision and agility, and they often serve as protectors of their allies, using their gunblades to intercept attacks and keep enemies at bay.

At 3rd level, gunbreakers gain proficiency with the gunblade, and they learn a Gunblade Technique that they can use in combat. These techniques allow gunbreakers to deal extra damage, knock enemies back, and even unleash powerful area-of-effect attacks.

At 7th level, gunbreakers gain the ability to leap into the air and strike down at a single enemy with a powerful attack. This ability, called Rough Divide, allows gunbreakers to close the distance to their enemies quickly and deal devastating blows.

At 10th level, gunbreakers gain access to a powerful ability called Blasting Zone. This ability allows them to make a ranged attack with their gunblade that detonates in a burst of energy, dealing damage to all enemies within a 20-foot radius.

At 15th level, gunbreakers gain the ability to deal extra damage to enemies that are weakened or vulnerable. This ability, called No Mercy, allows gunbreakers to capitalize on their enemies' weaknesses and deal lethal blows.

Finally, at 18th level, gunbreakers gain access to their ultimate ability: Superbolide. This ability allows them to enter a state of invincibility for a short time, making them nearly impossible to kill or knock unconscious. However, the use of this ability comes at a cost, as gunbreakers suffer one level of exhaustion after the effect ends.
