Overview
Furies are primal warriors who channel raw emotion and physical power into devastating melee attacks. As battle rages on and they take damage, their fury grows, unlocking increasingly powerful abilities. A Fury in full rage is one of the most dangerous forces on the battlefield. Fury characters are the premier melee damage dealers in Draw Steel. With the highest stamina and most devastating single-target attacks, they wade into the thick of combat and refuse to go down. Their rage mechanic rewards aggressive play, making them more dangerous the longer a fight lasts.

Tacticians can direct you into optimal positions and grant you extra attacks. Troubadours can inspire you to deal even more damage.
