Class:Champion

From LOTRO Lorebook

Official Game Entry

Class: Champion

Skill Level: Beginner
Unrelenting in battle, Champions are consummate warriors. Their fervour allows them to make increasingly powerful attacks. Champions excel at melee combat and can absorb punishment with their heavy armour.
Role: Area-of-Effect Damage / Damage-per-Second
The Champion trades survivability for the ability to deal explosive amounts of damage to multiple foes. Although a fully armoured class when not in fervour mode, it is when Champions enter this state that they deal out the greatest damage, both to single and multiple foes.
