  • The Claymore can decimate enemies and terrain one block higher than Broheart. In other words, an 1x2 area ahead.
  • Enemies slightly below can be affected.

Special command: Freedom Rush

• Screams 'FREEEDOOOMM' and sends enemies running away with Fear induced.
• Turrets and Vehicles are immune.
• Increases attack and movement speed.
• Can be useful against hordes of enemies or a few very dangerous enemies in hard mode that are normally very hard to approach, as it stops them from attacking and gives you a good chance to strike back and kill them instead.
• Bear in mind that Broheart needs to approach from a different position to ensure safety, as the range of mook's guns are often two times longer than the special's radius.
• Melee enemies are not an issue, because they would be scared away even before strike.
• Ammunitions: 2.
• Duration: 7 seconds.
• Range: A radius of 6 blocks.
