Legendarily massive raptors capable of carrying off elephants as prey, rocs are typically about 30 feet long from beak to tail and have a wingspan of 80 feet or more. While their beaks are hooked to rip flesh from bone, their hunting strategy involves grabbing their prey in their powerful talons and then dropping it from great heights before feeding. This method creates a massive amount of carrion, which guarantees that rocs are followed by flocks of opportunistic scavengers, such as ravens and

WORKS WELL WITH
FlankerLAND / AERIALThe Roc's Grabbed target is off-guard for the Flanker's precision strikes while the Roc's Flying Strafe creates chaos that masks the Flanker's positioning.
SniperLANDThe Roc's Snatch carries one target away from the party, leaving that isolated victim exposed to the Sniper's focused fire without cover.
WeaverLAND / AERIALThe Roc's mobility disrupts enemy formations while the Weaver's area control prevents the party from regrouping around the snatched target.
