The enchanters in Guardians of Middle-earth are your ability power champions that offer massive burst and non-auto attack damage to the battlefields. These characters usually have longer cooldown to make up for the lack of mana and their massive bursts. While certain enchanter guardians have damage soaking and tankish abilities, they can all blow you away quickly if allowed and built the right way.
