Borderlands 3 is rapidly approaching, and before you decide which of the four Vault Hunters to play as in your universe-spanning FPS adventure, you can browse through the leaked, complete skill list for Amara the Siren right here. Amara is a very different kind of Siren — instead of using her powers for purely magical purposes, she can summon waves of deadly fists to smash and grab armies of opponents.
Like all the Vault Hunters, her unique skills are split into three different categories. Brawl, Mystic Assault, and Fist of the Elemental each feature skills suited to a particular playstyle. Brawl is all about getting up-close and personal to deliver serious slam damage on enemies. Mystic Assault beefs up her powers, giving her access to deadly astral projections. Fist of the Elemental unlocks powers related to Phasegrasp — where she summons a giant hand to hold enemies. With the right upgrades, your Phasegrasp can spread to nearby enemies too.
Amara sounds like a much beefier, fightier version of the Siren that we’ve seen in previous Borderlands games — and you can plan your preferred playstyle with the three skill trees listed below. For more character breakdowns, check out the complete list of skills for Zane the Operative here.
