Duelist

When to choose this captain

Swish Swoosh! + 50% more melee damage when boosting - 20% more damage taken when boosting

Ram & Nitro: Boosted melee hits gain damage, but incoming damage while boosting also rises. Use for clean passes, not head-on trading.

Duelist costs 2500 silver. Compare this purchase with the core module unlock you need next.

Loadout trade-offs

Read the benefit and penalty together. Choose equipment that uses the positive effect, then plan movement and cooldown timing around the disadvantage.

Keep the rest of the loadout familiar when trying a new captain. Compare one ordinary encounter and one boss approach before changing the whole build, so you can see whether the captain solves your current problem.
