Qing Yan’s Main Role
Unlike other heroes, Qing Yan excels in closer-quarter combat since he specializes in Shotguns, andhis abilities are melee-based.Qing Yan doesn’t use a Shield, but has Armor that players can only replenish while nearby enemies. That means long-ranged weapons like Sniper Rifles or even Assault Rifles aren’t viable to use with Qing Yan.
This melee-based hero has two abilities:LeapandCleave. Leap allows players to jump (some Occult Scrolls may increase jump distance) toward a group of enemies, causing them to stagger. Cleave is a melee attack that affects enemies within a 7m radius.

Bruiser Build
Since melee-based damage is Qing Yan’s strong point, players will want to use it fully. That means players don’t have to worry about getting a gun with an elemental attachment. This build focuses on maxing out the damage potential of Qing Yan’s skills (Leap and Cleave). These skills will be the main source of damage and will also allow Qing Yan to replenish his Armor.
Weapons to Use
As players can expect, Qing Yan excels at using Shotguns and Melee weapons due to his close-quarter combat playstyle. Fortunately,several Shotguns and Melee Weapons are considered top-tierin theGunfire Reborncommunity. But, the only time players will fire (or swing) their weapon is whenever Qing Yan’s abilities are on cooldown, so players shouldn’t worry too much about getting the perfect weapon.

The best Shotgun Qing Yan can use is theWild Huntbecause it has one of the highest RoF (Rate of Fire) for Shotguns, even higher than some Assault Rifles. The only issue with this Shotgun is its low ammo capacity, leading to frequent reloads.
Flowing Lightis among the best melee weapons players can use with Qing Yan. Its Weapon Skill shoots an arc of energy that can damage several enemies, even those behind cover.

Ascensions to Use
Ascensions are the only way Qing Yan can reach his full potential, aside fromOccult Scrolls that can dramatically boost a hero’s power. Players will want to primarily focus on maxing out Ascension skills that buff Leap and Cleave. These buffs affect the damage and grant Qing Yan additional protection, meaning they are critical for players that want to win.
Qing Yan Gameplay Tips
Qing Yan isn’t the easiest hero to use inGunfire Reborn, meaning it’ll take some time to master him. The best way to play Bruiser Qing Yan is by constantly being on top of enemies since it’s the only way players can dish out damage. But, of course, players still need to play it safe since Qing Yan’s Armor doesn’t replenish automatically.
Some enemies (such as Rogue Arsonist and Horsehead) will be quite annoying to fight since they have shields and melee weapons that can seriously damage Qing Yan. The best tactic against shielded enemies is to try toLeap behind them and Cleave or shoot them with a Shotgun.Boss fights will also be challenging for Qing Yan players, but can be done with patience and a good teammate like Ao Bai or Li.
