Environments

 * Rallypoint Delta

Charging Attack
The Bighorn Bison's primary attack is to charge at its target for 4-5 seconds, dealing 300% damage to anything it hits (but only once per target).

This skill has a startup time of 2 seconds and is indicated through the sound of a cowbell. The Bison also scrapes its hooves against the ground and lowers its head.

This skill has a cooldown of 8 seconds and a proc coefficient of 1.0.

Headbutt
If a target is very close to a Bighorn Bison, the Bison will instead headbutt the nearby target for 300% damage.

This skill has a proc coefficient of 1.0.

Tips

 * The Bighorn Bison's turning radius when charging is rather wide, so it can be avoided rather easily with a speedy sidestep. It can be dodged even more easily with anything that allows higher jumping, such as a or.
