Enforcer

Tactics

 * Surviving as Enforcer is difficult due to your low mobility. Having such an unforgiving skillset, you want items that will "give you a second chance" in combat. Items like boxing gloves, permafrost, and warbanner will provide high utility evading or delaying enemies. Your healing items should be Mysterious Vial, Medkit, and Leeching Seed. Essential items for surviving brawls with enemies are the Guardian's Heart and Foreign Fruits.
 * The Enforcer's main means of dealing damage is through Riot Shotgun. While the attack is slow, it is also a ranged attack that can strike several enemies at once. This makes items that trigger on strike quite effective in the Enforcer's arsenal. Increasing the enforcer's rate of fire via Soldier's Syringe is also quite effective. Somewhat appropriately, the Prison Shackles are one of the Enforcer's best items; the ability to slow down enemies using the shotgun is crucial for crowd control.
 * Positioning for is crucial to success. Being the most stationary character, items that are most effective on the Enforcer are ones that help you take out large hordes of enemies at a time. The Will-o'-the-wisp, Brilliant Behemoth, Gasoline, and other "damage on-kill" items will help you make short work of the waves.
 * will knock enemies, regardless of their orientation, towards the direction the Enforcer is facing. The hitbox for also extends slightly behind the Enforcer as well; however, hitting an enemy at the edge of 's range if they are behind the Enforcer will send them backwards.
 * Protect and Serve can kill you just as easily as it could save your life. It is important to stagger your and Crowd Control abilities if you get into a bind.
 * Be careful of enemies like the Rock Golems or Sand Crabs, you want them close to block damage with your shield, but if they get too close, their long reach can still hit you for devastating damage, even from the front.
 * Mushrums are a particularly lethal enemy for the Enforcer: They have a damage over time, area of effect attack, that hits through Protect and Serve. Staying in the attack's effect can kill the enforcer in a matter of seconds. Evasive maneuvers must be taken against this attack.
 * Similarly, the player should keep an eye out for elite enemies. Those that leave fire tracks will hit through Protect and Serve. As for elites that fire rockets, these have a tendency to fly around and strike the enforcer in its vulnerable back.
