Description
Gwen is a Generation 5 Legendary Marksman who uses air-assisted attacks to pressure enemy heroes and exposes troop targets to more damage in Expedition. Her inventions distinguish her from her older sister Norah. Their story comes together when Gwen’s aircraft create the opening Norah needs for a counterattack, turning engineering into a practical battlefield advantage.
Three different damage patterns
Salvo targets enemies at the rear, prioritizing heroes. It combines area damage with a 50% Attack Speed reduction for two seconds.
Sky Sniper also prioritizes heroes and has a 50% chance to double its damage. The regular coefficient reaches 140% of Gwen’s Attack at skill level 5; the double-damage outcome is conditional rather than guaranteed on every shot.
Hellfire burns targets in its area for three seconds, with damage expressed per second. Its level-5 coefficient is 49% of Gwen’s Attack per second, not a 49% coefficient for the entire duration.
Editorial recommendation: evaluate Gwen when you need pressure on rear-positioned enemies rather than just more damage against the front. Watch whether Salvo’s target choice and slow help the matchup, and separate Sky Sniper’s high-roll results from her more repeatable contributions. Her sister’s random grenade pressure has a different targeting pattern, even though both use explosive attacks.
Expedition: vulnerability and attack-count effects
| Skill | Mechanic | Level-5 values |
|---|---|---|
| Eagle Vision | Raises the target’s damage taken when friendly troops attack | 25% increased damage taken |
| Air Dominance | All troops gain an every-five-attacks effect, followed by a bonus to the target’s next received attack from any source | 100% extra damage, then 15% extra damage on the next received attack |
| Blastmaster | Marksmen deal extra damage to all enemies every four attacks | 50% extra damage |
Air Dominance’s five-attack effect and Blastmaster’s four-attack effect are separate. They are not five-second or four-second timers, and Blastmaster’s trigger specifically belongs to Marksmen. Eagle Vision changes damage taken by a target rather than directly raising your troops’ Attack stat.
For rally joining, Eagle Vision is Gwen’s first Expedition skill and is eligible for a selected support slot when she is the flagged lead hero. The attack-count effects should not be assumed to transfer with it. Selection is not automatic, and a rally captain’s own hero squad supplies its broader Expedition skill set.
Wings of Hope
Fire Support Unit adds an automated shot when Gwen casts a skill. It chooses a random target with hero priority and deals 70% of Gwen’s Attack as damage at skill level 5. This trigger is skill casting, not simply every normal attack.
Marauder increases Rally Troops’ Lethality by 15% at skill level 5. Its rally role is separate from the automated shot in hero battles. Wings of Hope reference bonuses are listed below the regular skills rather than folded into the hero-stat panel.
Acquisition and shard planning
Hall of Heroes and Daily Deals are listed acquisition routes. Mythic General Hero Shards can be converted for an already recruited eligible hero, so obtain Gwen’s initial unlock before planning around that route. Availability should be checked in your state’s current screens.
Recruitment needs 10 shards; the five promotion stages add 1,065, for 1,075 from locked to five stars. Her displayed Marksman Attack and Defense are 444.35% each. Hero and weapon values are reference figures.
