New 2.2 leaks are hinting at a boss-melting skill from a rather unexpected source: the new support Trailblazer. The turn-based RPG is currently in the early stages of its second phase, but a lot of the content planned for the upcoming patch has already been leaked. Most of them revolve around the abilities and gameplay mechanics of the new and confirmed characters, Robin and Boothill, though there have been plenty of mentions about the new Trailblazer form in leaks. According to the rumors, the new Trailblazer form will be an Imaginary Harmony unit.

Curiously enough, it seems like this version of the character, focused on supporting their teammates with buffs, will actually have a special ability that will be destructive to a boss in the upcoming patch. According to new information obtained by the leaker known as HomDGCat, shared in a post tagged as “” on Reddit, the new weekly boss fight expected to be added with Version 2.2 will see the special “” skill activated by the Trailblazer.

According to the description provided by HomDGCat, the name of the special skill will be called Long Note of the Distant Horizon, and, when activated, the new support Trailblazer will leap forward and attack the boss. If the previous leaks about the character’s type are true, then it is likely this attack will deal Imaginary DMG.

The only minor surprise is that this leaked offensive move will come from the new form of the Trailblazer, which is heavily rumored to be a support unit following the Path of the Harmony. Characters that follow this Path are not usually offensive by nature. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that the rumored ability will likely be exclusive to the boss fight and will not be incorporated into the Harmony Trailblazer’s gameplay kit – so far, the new form is reported to have offensive moves, but not one that should be as powerful as the one recently leaked by HomDGCat.

Of course, this would not be the first time a support form of the Trailblazer has a devastating offensive move in boss fights. The Preservation (Fire) Trailblazer in is actually the one in charge of activating the giant robot’s hand in the fight against Cocolia, Mother of Deception. While their main focus as a character is shielding allies and attracting enemy attention, in
