— In-game description

Guild-claimed camps in World versus world may be upgraded with the Schematic: Assault Roller tactic after being claimed for 10 minutes. After pulling the tactivator, a dune roller object is summoned at the camp. Interacting with it will transform the user into a charr car, granting them increased mobility and the ability to deal siege damage.

The Dune Roller effect on the player's user interface tracks the remaining duration, which starts at 15 minutes.

Notes[edit]

Using the Dune Roller's siege attacks does not seem to contest objectives.
  • Physical and condition damage from the Dune Roller used to be affected by player stats. As of June 2019 it has a maximum of 1,800 damage versus gates and walls and 600 damage versus. siege weapons and NPCs.
  • While transformed, the player has 30,000 Health, no matter their vitality stat. The Dune roller does regenerate health while out of combat, and can be healed in combat.
  • Leaving the transform or becoming downed loses the effect, just like Banner tactics.
  • When submerged in water, all skills except Smoke Screen are locked.
  • This Improvement has a 3:00 installation time and a 20:00 cooldown.
  • Once activated, spawn a Dune Roller at your objective. The dialog to activate is "Roll Out" most likely a reference to Transformers.
