How to use Gunde in Fellowship

If we study the table above, it’s pretty clear what Gunde’s strengths are. Your sole priority is to go in with Warbound and then use all the abilities you have. This will stack plenty of Rend on enemies if they’re not dead.

Image via Chief Rebel You’ll also have to be mindful of the abilities that have longer cooldowns, since timing those is important. When an enemy is inflicted with Rend, there’s a chance for it to drop Blood Feather. You should collect as many as you can since you get Owed In Blood stacks. If the Rend stacks you apply aren’t enough, you can use these ones on a specific enemy.

While I will test more of Gunde’s potential over the coming week, he seems like a top-tier pick. His abilities are incredibly strong, and the bleed procs set enemies up to receive plenty of damage. That said, I will be making some updates to this once I have spent more time with the new addition to Fellowship.
