Greatsword Vanguard
Greatsword Vanguard⚔️ Weapon: Colossal Greatsword & Heavy PlateDifficulty: ★★

Heavy Greatsword & Parry Fortress

⚡ Hands-on Brief: The frontline anchor of the raid. Uses precise QTE-style Parries to turn boss assaults into massive stagger windows. Can trigger full Titan Transformation under heavy combat pressure.

Tested at Gamescom: The tank holds direct boss aggro. If the tank falls out of combat, boss targeting snaps violently to healers and ranged DPS.
