Bruce: A Guide to His Applications and Cost

A new Hero has come to World War Rising. Bruce brings with him both Combat-related and Economic skills. In today’s Guide we will discuss;

Who is Bruce?
What are his specialties? How much does it cost to level him to the maximum level?

Who is Bruce?

According to game lore, Bruce is a Naval Hero who has led countless Special Ops Missions and saved millions of lives. It was during this mission that he obtained that wicked scar across his face. Rumor on the street is that it attracts all the ladies, and Riggs is insanely jealous…

He is a multi-functional Hero with both Economic, Mercenary, Squad Member, Hero, and general Combat-related skill nodes.

Costs

Bruce’s current maximum level is 150, with an original maximum of 100 (starting with a lower max than the Hero Trio that was released prior to him). The costs to level Bruce to 150 are as follows.

Using Bruce

As a general rule, the Economic and Hero skills run down the left side of the skill tree. Combat down the right, and various Syndicate and March/Rally sizes. Pre-plan your skill progression before you start randomly poking nodes. Decide how you want to utilize Bruce to best suit your needs. If you change your mind, you can change the skills using a Skill Reset.

Bruce is a multifunctional Hero with multiple options in specialization to choose from. Don’t let his name fool you… There have been many bad-arse Bruce’s in history. Or at least in the history of movies…
