However, once you memorize the button commands, everything gets easier. Things get tricky as you unlock more skills and need different moves in different situations. The same goes for Gamora, Rocket, and Drax’s primary moves. So, holding L1 and double-tapping Square will always entangle a group of enemies. Groot’s primary move is Entangle, which grapples multiple enemies at once and holds them in place. For example, to use a Groot skill, you’ll press Square on the Guardian Wheel. While navigating the skill menu can be confusing at first, you can think of each skill as a different set of button commands.Įach Guardian’s primary skill binds to the same face button as their character on the skill wheel. From here, you’ll use the Face buttons to select a Guardian and then the Face buttons again to select a move. To use skills, press and hold L1 to bring up the Guardian wheel. Ultimates also operate on a separate cooldown, so you can use a Guardian’s ultimate ability and immediately use one of their skills. This special skill is denoted in purple on their skill wheel. Finally, all five members have what we’ll call an ultimate ability that unlocks as the story progresses. As you earn skill points through combat, you’ll unlock two additional skills for each Guardian. Skills are the keys to combat in Guardians of the Galaxy.
However, our little tree friend isn’t the best liar, and that’s all we’ll say. He’ll attract the keen eye of Lady Hellbender when the Guardians head to her palace. He can trap several enemies at once with his Entangle skill or one large enemy with Mammoth Grab.Īs the last Flora Colossus, Groot is a spectacle on and off the battlefield. As the support/tank, Groot’s primary task is to snare enemies in place for the other Guardians to attack. Groot is arguably the most crucial Guardian when it comes to combat. While the revive system is quick, it still poses a challenge when your long-range expert is out of the fight. We found the Rocket tends to go down easily in combat. He can also toss grenades that’ll draw enemies together, leaving them open to other group combos. He’ll lob grenades into groups of enemies that’ll deal heavy damage to anyone in the blast radius. His Bye-Bye Engine unfolds into a variety of other weapons, some twice the size of the base gun itself. Rocket fights from a distance as the tech expert among the Guardians. Fueled by nothing but vengeance, the Katathian warrior dual-wields a pair of ancient blades. He’ll leave powerful enemies vulnerable to follow-up attacks and can clear a crowd in true Drax the Destroyer fashion. Draxĭrax is your primary source of stagger damage (which we’ll go over later). While the story of Thanos is different in Guardians of the Galaxy, Gamora’s sword still did some severe damage across the galaxy. The blade is forged from Asgardian steel and meant to work as a weapon against Odin’s people. Gamora’s sword, Godslayer, was a gift from her father. She’ll deal the most combat damage to single enemies but can still attack multiple enemies at once.
Their history goes way back, but as Gamora proves herself in combat, Drax eases up on his preconceived notions. Gamoraĭrax often refers to her as “The Assassin” or “The Traitor” early on in the game. However, we don’t recommend hoarding your skills for the “perfect moment.” Plenty of fights in Guardians of the Galaxy felt a little button-mashy between launching different skills and using Star-Lord’s blasters. Those skills enter a cooldown after each use, so you’ll have to plan their use. However, he can direct them to use their unique skills to deal devastating damage. Star-Lord cannot fight for the other Guardians. You’ll know what every enemy is weak to by the icon over their head. As the game progresses, you’ll unlock four elemental ammo types to use against susceptible enemies. His Elemental Guns will never run out of ammo, but they’ll enter into a brief cooldown period after firing off what we’ll call a “clip.” You’ll unlock a rapid-reload perk early on, similar to the Gears of War reload mechanic. Star-Lord is the field general and leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy. So what role does each Guardian play in combat? Star-Lord There will be times when Star-Lord is left to fend for himself or perhaps one of the Guardians is missing in action. Star-Lord will have Gamora, Groot, Drax, and Rocket available to him most of the time. 3: Everything we know so farīefore we get into the finer details, let’s go over how combat works in general and each Guardian’s role on the battlefield.
