Howzer - Seven Deadly Sins Origin
Profile Update

Howzer is a flexible SR pick focused on wave control, mobility, and team utility. He is especially effective for open-world farming and event stages with many enemies.

His lance and rapier sets provide consistent pressure and supportive buffs, while his cudgel loadout offers better control for crowded encounters.

Howzer is not the highest single-target carry, but he delivers strong value as a budget-friendly hybrid DPS/support unit.

Pros

  • Great AoE pressure for farming
  • Useful debuffs and team utility
  • Easy to pilot for new players

Cons

  • Lower single-target ceiling
  • Needs energy management for rotations
  • Falls off against late boss armor phases
