The coolest character on Kongai is here, Knight Gunbjorn. Although his double axe is a signature, being pragmatic with his methods also makes him stand out more.

Attacks[]
Equippable Items[]
Knight Items[]
- Bracers of Righteousness: Good fix for Gunbjorn's 0 Dark resistance. Increases survivability considerably.
- Elemental Prism: If Gunbjorn is used for Ice Shards and Bone Chill, it can be useful, but he has better items.
- Hero's Flagon: Good if you think you can get around with switching.
- Knight's Emblem: A very good item if Prism, Gorbax or any bench hitters come around. Can be used to prevent Spiritual Assistance or Touch of Doom as well
- Ring of Bravery: Excellent choice. Makes Helmet Ram deal 30 damage, thus being a better economy option than Cold Steel Axe.
General Items[]
- General's Insignia: His two close-range moves are single hit, but Ring of Bravery is preferred (hits before anything else, works for other two moves)
- Girdle of Iron Will: Three of his four moves are slow and are easy to interrupt, good choice.
- Healing Salve: Promotes longevity, but Gunbjorn has better choices.
- Mindreader's Chalice: Use if it suits your style.
- Stoneheel Totem: If you wish to challenge the energy game with his innate + Bone Chill it might be a great item.
- Yellow Rock of Cowards: Use if it suits your style.
Strategy[]
General Use[]
In most cases Gunbjorn is used to deal quick damage with Helmet Ram and the occasional Cold Steel Axe. While Cold Steel Axe is slow, it can be threatening enough for an opponent to range change. From there Gun can utilize Ice Shards or Bone Chill.
While he is suitable for tanking, some people like to play him as an energy gamer, using Helmet Ram's interrupt, his innate, and Bone Chill to set up other characters.
Strengths[]
- Very strong innate
- Although Bone Chill is a fairly weak DoT, its +5 energy cost to range changing is significant in Range Dancing
- Ice Shards can lower many attacks into Helmet Ram's interrupt range and makes Cold Steel Axe essentially speed 6.
- Helmet Ram + Insignia/Ring of Bravery ends up being an extremely strong, energy efficient move.
- Close-range combat
Weaknesses[]
- 1 light resistance
- No dark resistance
- Most damaging move is very slow (although Ice Shards helps with this problem)
- Ice Shards is completely useless against several characters, other then for the debuff
- Long-range combat
Known bugs[]
None.
