How to use Bastogard
Deploy Bastogard in the back row, behind a Tank or Guardian, so it can fire the whole lane. As a Rock Tatari it should face Lightning Zobos and avoid lanes with Grass Zobos — the game shows a green thumb when the match-up is right. Bastogard is T3 — the line gets its full kit at Cratzar, so treat this form as a stepping stone.
Tier verdict for the Gopher line (B): Rock DPS that burrows and Blinds; Cratzar (T4) is solid lane filler.
Gopher line Horde Invasion skills
In Zobo Horde Invasion every Tatari learns three extra skills at Horde levels 3, 5 and 7; they are shared by the whole Gopher line (only the base skill differs per form).
| Base | Mud Ball: Continuously fires mud balls at close range. Stops attacking when enemies are nearby, but grants damage reduction. |
|---|---|
| Level 3 | Smoke Bomb: Attacks have a chance to trigger extra smoke, dealing AoE damage and inflicting Weak on enemies. |
| Level 5 | Escape Route: When enemies are nearby, continuously deals large AoE damage in the surrounding area. |
| Level 7 | Gopher Group: Summons a group of Gopher allies to attack continuously. |
