Robin

Robin Skill Trees

Robin’s skill trees are all very different, with Slugger boosting damage, Shadow improving stealth tactics, and Tinkering buffing Robin’s elemental and Pellet attacks.

• Slugger
• Shadow
• Tinkering
• Knighthood

This tree significantly increases Robin’s damage — especially when attacking enemies from behind — and also contains improvements to his decoy that allow it to reflect damage and/or explode.

n/a		Perfect Evade	None	Robin performs a perfectly-timed evade that generates Momentum and allows for a perfect attack follow-up.

2		Back Damage Plus	Perfect Evade	Robin deals 20% more damage when attacking enemies from behind.
1		Elemental Decoy	Perfect Evade	When attacked, Robin’s decoy inflicts a large amount of Elemental Effect damage on the attacking enemy.
2		Precise Strikes	Critical Expertise	Increases Robin’s chance of landing a critical hit by 10%.

3		Elemental Focus	Exploding Decoy or Precise Strikes	Robin’s Critical damage and chance of landing a Critical Hit increase by 20% on targets with an active Elemental Effect.

This stealth-focused tree lets Robin move unheard and unseen. It also adds some unique takedowns, and allows Robin to heal significantly from sucessful takedowns.

This tree, which syngergizes with the Slugger tree, boosts Robin’s elemental damage, and improves his ranged attacks, modifying them to work like a temporary mine when they hit surfaces.

2		Enhanced Elemental Effects	Elemental Resistance	Elemental Effects inflicted by Robin last twice as long.

Robin’s Knighthood tree further improves and encourages the use of his takedowns, granting him buffs for sucessful ones. It also gives him a tool to reenter stealth after attacking from above, improves his microbots ability, and makes his combos stronger. Robin’s Heroic Traversal Slideways (teleportation) also unlocks when this tree becomes available.

3		Microbot Target +	Robin improved the particle accelerator in the microbots’ core engine. He can now call 5 microbots instead of 3.

Robin Momentum Abilities

Robin’s Momentum abilities focus on evasion and confusion, with his decoy distracting enemies and allowing him to attack them from behind. He can also keep himself safe by deflecting projectiles. His Ultimate Ability, microbots, synergizes with the elemental damage buffs in his skill trees.
