The finest Legion spies learned mere months ago of a mad archaeologist whose unnatural thirst for knowledge led him into a forbidden pact with the Hellbourne. His discoveries have been used to forge Shocktroopers, men fused with Ancient technology, pulsing with violent energy. These horrifying hybrids bear a tank of liquid lightning upon their backs, and they wield its contents as both sword and shield.
The Electrician is a mana-dependent tank capable of acting as both support and carry thanks to his potentially high damage output and disables. Cleansing Shock will remove almost any debuff from an ally while speeding his movement speed simultaneously.
