Tower of Fantasy: Meryl (SSR)

Bio:

Meryl is the Senior Executioner for Hykros who excels in the most dangerous missions thanks to her outstanding sword-fighting and combat skills. Keeps her distance from everyone and hides her feelings to herself, but that doesn’t mean she is emotionless.

Playstyle and Attributes:

Meryl is an outstanding character. Her Claymore, although slow will deal a huge amount of damage. She is one of the few “tanks” in Tower of Fantasy making her excel in PvE content. One downside to her playstyle is closing gaps that could prove tricky in PvP, but what she lacks in that department she makes up for with her control and abilities once that gap is closed. Meryl is my personal favorite character to play right now.
