Each team has one Walker in each lane as its second defensive objective. A Walker becomes damageable only after its 
lane Guardian falls and an enemy is within 22 m. It prioritizes the closest target. The three Walkers begin at 6,000 
health; each 
death adds 3,000 maximum health to and heals the survivors, giving 9,000 with two left and 12,000 with one. Survivors also grow in size. Allied heroes within 28 m gain 15% Bullet and 
Spirit Resist. Walkers have no headshot 
damage zone; 
abilities such as 
Singularity and 
Frozen Shelter can disable them.
Attacks
All three attacks deal 
spirit damage and are reduced by Spirit Resist.
| Attack | Effect |
|---|---|
| Fire Beam | Channels on the nearest target for 2% maximum health per second. |
| Stomp | At an enemy within 15 m, deals 350 plus 15% maximum health in a 15 m radius and stuns for 2 seconds; cooldown 7 seconds. The Walker cannot use its other attacks while stomping. A player carried by  Doorman’s  Luggage Cart is not a valid trigger until the cart ends or hits a wall. |
Fireballs / Rocket  Barrage |
Six projectiles deal 200 each, leaving fire for 5 seconds at 25  damage per second and applying a 10% Bullet and Spirit Resist reduction. Cooldown 10 seconds. |
The infobox also lists 125 DPS, 24 m range and 300 
melee damage; these are separate displayed statistics. The source describes inner and outer ground circles for stomp and attack/damage ranges, while its September 29, 2026 history says the indicators became dynamic when approaching.
Resistances
Time-based damage resistance falls linearly from 65% at 0:00 to −65% at 18:00, at approximately −0.12 percentage points per second. Intermediate values are 43.33% at 3:00, 21.67% at 6:00, 0% at 9:00, −21.67% at 12:00 and −43.33% at 15:00. Bullet Resist is 35% and Spirit Resist 0%. Additional weapon resistance applies based on enemies within 51 m: none for one or two, 20% for three, up to 50% for six. Resistances multiply: at 18 minutes with three enemies, 
bullet damage is 1.65 × 0.65 × 0.8, approximately 86% of original damage.
Backdoor Protection remains active until the attacking team’s current 
Trooper wave reaches the Walker. Its green circle marks 65% player damage reduction and 65 health regeneration per second. This multiplies with time resistance: at 18 minutes the combined result is 42.25% resistance, not zero.

Destruction
A Walker awards 3,675 
souls. If eligible heroes are nearby, including those who damaged it in the prior 20 seconds, they share 25% (919 souls); the remaining amount is split equally across all six attacking team members regardless of location. Each destroyed Walker unlocks one Extra Slot for the whole team.
The current four-legged, two-armed model is called Sun Walker in the files. It replaced the candle-wax-legged Wax Walker in May 2024; a work-in-progress Clock Tower model exists. Neon Prime Walkers were dropped into lanes by dropship. Recent history records a 5% bounty increase on September 16, 2026 and a fix on September 29 preventing fireballs after death.
