Gurptuk Moss-Beard

Last Updated: April 6, 2026

Gurptuk Moss-Beard Overview

Gurptuk is a support legendary who boosts team damage while applying Block Buffs, making him especially valuable for Hydra, waves and Nether Spider encounters, despite his risky self poisoning mechanics.

Gurptuk Moss-Beard was introduced in May 2020 as a Fusion Event champion, joining the ranks of the Ogryn Tribes faction.

For a long time, Gurptuk was considered one of the weakest fusion releases in the game. However, after receiving buffs in September 2020, he became a much more useful support champion, capable of boosting team damage while also applying Block Buffs to enemies. This debuff was once a popular Arena counter to Swift Parry before the rise of the Stoneskin meta.

Despite shifting Arena trends, Gurptuk has remained relevant in PvE content. He is especially strong against Agreth the Nether Spider, and continues to offer excellent value in Hydra Clan Boss, where Block Buffs is essential for shutting down some of the Hydra Heads’ most frustrating mechanics, while increasing the damage of teams, at the cost of being poisoned.
