Captain (Hyrule Warriors): Difference between revisions

Captains fulfill similar roles to that of infantry soldiers. Their most basic objective is to combat enemy soldiers and to move in to take over [[Keep]]s and [[Outpost]]s. Unlike the weaker soldiers however, Captains are stronger and more resilient, and are able to fulfill other needs based on their type. Captains are commonly seen as Keep Bosses and Outpost Captains, who guard Keeps and Outposts respectively, as well as regular Captains that fight on the battlefield. Some Captains may also lead unit troops onto the field, thereby increasing their Force's numbers.

Notable Captains are listed in the battle's Battlefield Info. An ally Captain that is in danger of falling will call upon for assistance, and can be healed to full health by touching the Rescue Area circle that forms around them. Enemy Captains typically have [[Weak Point Gauge]]s that are exposed after performing a powerful attack, though this also depends on the type of enemy they are as well.

Besides the Captains that fight normally on the battlefield, other types of Captains also appear, with some specific to certain battles. Each type fulfills a different and sometimes specific role.
