Monster Slayers use their abilities to keep the world safe from magical threats. Slayers tend to have a focus, a particular type of monster that they fight against. Their powers lend them exceptional strength and can protect them from some exceptional forms of attack. STRATEGY A Monster Slayer focuses on its foe above all else. Many monsters have exceptional defenses such as Aura, Barrier or Resistance. A Slayer uses its Cancelling Strike ability to destroy these defenses and leave its target vulnerable.
