Walkers are one of the two types of defenses protecting the Patron, along with Guardians. They are very large metal automatons with four legs that hold a strange disc in their hands, which they use as a weapon.
Overview
Walkers are the second line of defense in each lane, and can only be damaged after their corresponding Guardian has been destroyed. In total, there are 3 Walkers on each team with one individual in each lane. Walkers start with 6000 HP. As each Walker dies, the remaining Walkers have increased HP, with 9000 for two remaining Walkers and 12000 for one remaining Walker (the Walkers get a flat 2550 HP increase and heal when the other Walkers die). They also increase in size.
Walkers provide nearby allied heroes (28m) 15% Bullet and Error: Key "TECH_ARMOR_DAMAGE_RESIST" not found in path "npc_boss_tier2.FriendlyAuraModifier.modifierProvidedByAura".% Spirit Resistance. Walkers currently do not take headshot damage anywhere on their bodies.
The Walker is surrounded by two white circles on the ground. The smaller circle indicates the Walker's stomp range, and the larger circle indicates the Walker's range to take damage and to use their fireballs.
Like Guardians, Walkers are immune to all damage when no enemies are within 22m. When an enemy enters this range, the Walker becomes vulnerable, prioritizing the closest target to it.
When attacking, a Walker has three attacks it can use:
Fire Beam
Channels a constantly damaging beam onto a target. Deals Error: Key "MaxHPDPS" not found in path "npc_boss_tier2.BoundAbilities.ESlot_Signature_2".% Max HP per second as damage.
Stomp
The Walker stomps the ground, dealing damage and stunning enemies for 2 seconds in a 15m radius. Deals 350 damage as well as 15% Max HP as damage. A Walker will only ever use this attack if an enemy gets within 15m of it.
Fireballs
The Walker's Rocket Barrage (also known as Fireball Spray) launches a volley of Error: Key "GrenadesInVolley" not found in path "npc_boss_tier2.BoundAbilities.ESlot_Signature_1". projectiles. Each projectile deals Error: Key "Damage" not found in path "npc_boss_tier2.BoundAbilities.ESlot_Signature_1". damage on impact and leaves a patch of fire on the ground. The fire lasts for Error: Key "FireDuration" not found in path "npc_boss_tier2.BoundAbilities.ESlot_Signature_1". seconds and deals Error: Key "FireDPS" not found in path "npc_boss_tier2.BoundAbilities.ESlot_Signature_1". damage per second to enemies standing in it. Additionally, the fireballs apply a debuff that reduces Bullet and Spirit resistance by Expression error: Unexpected < operator.%. This ability has a cooldown of Error: Key "AbilityCooldown" not found in path "npc_boss_tier2.BoundAbilities.ESlot_Signature_1". seconds.
Resistances
Walkers possess a high resistance to damage early in the game that degrades over time. They start with 75% Damage Resistance, which decays linearly down to -50% Resistance (taking increased damage) over the first 20 minutes of the match. Additionally, they possess 35% Bullet Resistance, but have no Spirit Resistance.
Walkers also take less weapon damage for each additional enemy within 51m, from 20% (3 enemies) to 50% (6 enemies). If there's only one or two enemies nearby, it has no additional resistance.
Backdoor protection
Like Shrines and Base Guardians, the Walker has a backdoor protection represented by a green circular effect around them, if the player attacks the Walker while their lane hasn't been pushed up to its position. When backdoor protection is active, the Walker gains 65% damage reduction from players and regenerates 65 health per second.
Since the lane progress depends on the position of the last trooper wave, the Walker still has backdoor protection until the active enemy trooper wave reaches the Walker's position.
Destruction
When a team destroys a Walker, it awards a total of 3500. The bounty is divided among attackers in two parts: First, 40% ( 1,400) is split between all nearby attacking players (including those that did damage to the walker in the last 20 seconds). The remaining 60% ( 2,100) is then distributed equally among all six members of the attacking team, regardless of their location.
Extra Slots
Each Walker destroyed unlocks one Extra Slot for the entire team.

Trivia
- The current Walker model is called the Sun Walker in the files.
- The Walker used to have a model called the Wax Walker. It was functionally similar to the Sun Walker, with 4 legs and 2 arms, but the legs were made of candle wax and the arms were attached to the underside of the body, which was shaped like an iron cauldron. The Wax Walker was used during the beginning of the current playtest, from April to May 2024, when it was replaced by the Sun Walker.
- In Neon Prime, the Walkers were carried by a dropship and dropped in the lanes at the start of the game.
