Overview

Kain is a Nova Bowman who uses a unique weapon called whispershot, which allows him to perform fast and agile attacks from a distance.

Kain can perform devastating strikes that can deal massive damage to his enemies.

In terms of his strengths and weaknesses, Kain is a strong class for players who enjoy high mobility and quick attacks. He is less focused on defense and is better suited to hit-and-run tactics. Players who prefer a more traditional tank-style character may find Kain’s low defense to be a weakness.
