Brawl Stars Trunk Guide – All Attacks, Stats Per Level
The primary move of Trunks, named “Ant Attack”, functions over a short range and resembles Jacky’s main attack in mechanism. Following a brief pause, Trunk inflicts damage upon all nearby enemies within the circular zone of impact. Enemies at the periphery of this attack receive increased damage. Post-attack, Trunk releases ants, which grant both damage and speed bonuses to him if he stays on them.
Trunks’ Super Attack, fueled by Revenge and Ants, is a continuous strike against opponents, dealing minimal harm but persisting until they cease spinning. Furthermore, it leaves ants behind on the path, allowing Trunks to traverse water and rebound from walls.
At launch, Trunk’s statistics as shown below are provisional, open to adjustments. It’s important to note that the attack damage figures do not incorporate any potential boosts from Trunk’s ants.
| POWER LEVEL | HEALTH | Main Attack Damage (Center) | Main Attack Damage (Edge) | Super Damage (Per Ant) |
| 1 | 5000 | 960 | 1400 | 150 |
| 2 | 5500 | 1056 | 1540 | 165 |
| 3 | 6000 | 1152 | 1680 | 180 |
| 4 | 6500 | 1248 | 1820 | 195 |
| 5 | 7000 | 1344 | 1960 | 210 |
| 6 | 7500 | 1440 | 2100 | 225 |
| 7 | 8000 | 1536 | 2240 | 240 |
| 8 | 8500 | 1632 | 2380 | 255 |
| 9 | 9000 | 1728 | 2520 | 270 |
| 10 | 9500 | 1824 | 2660 | 285 |
| 11 | 10000 | 1920 | 2800 | 300 |
Brawl Stars Trunk Guide – Which Star Powers & Gadgets are the best?
Trunk has two gadgets at launch:
- For The Queen – “Trunk instantly spreads ants in a large area.”
- Worker Ants – “Trunk heals from the first source of damage taken for the next 2 secs.”
Additionally, Trunk has two Star Powers which players can unlock:
- New Insect Overlords – “Ants also reduce the damage of enemies by 15%”
- Colony Scouts – “Ants reveal hidden enemies.”
Furthermore, Trunk can use the following gadgets in battle:
- Speed
- Vision
- Health
- Shield
- Damage
- Gadget Cooldown
Brawl Stars Trunk Guide – Recommended Star Power, Gadget, & Gear Setup
Regarding gadgets, we lean more towards “For the Queen” over Worker Ants, as the latter only lasts for 2 seconds and requires precise timing. On the other hand, For The Queen grants Trunk immediate extra damage capability. However, remember that Trunk’s primary attack does have a delay before it is executed.
When it comes to Star Powers, both options are solid, but generally, we lean towards New Insect Overlords. Colony Scouts performs best on maps with plenty of bushes, but its effectiveness can be diminished since enemies or teammates may destroy those bushes throughout the game. On the other hand, Insect Overlord ensures that Trunk maintains its high health while chasing enemies across the entire map.
As a fellow gamer, I’d say, “When it comes to gadgets, I’d suggest rocking a Damage Gear for those extra hits, particularly in tight spots. A Speed Gear can be quite handy navigating bush-filled maps. And if you’re looking to beef up Trunks, consider a Shield Gear – it’ll help him stay alive longer and make the most of his strengths.
Brawl Stars – Which Modes Should You Use Trunk In (And Which Modes You Shouldn’t)
Brawl Ball
In simpler terms, Trunk’s high durability and ability to attack even through walls could be advantageous in Brawl Ball. With their quick movement speed and Super ability, they can navigate the map more easily. If you need a character with toughness, Trunk would be a good pick, but keep in mind that there is a delay before their main attack.
Hot Zone
The trunk’s high durability could ensure their survival within the scorching environment. Moreover, their primary assault is as expansive as the zone itself, making it easier for them to eliminate all inhabitants. Lastly, the advantage provided by Trunks’ ants will be incredibly useful in the thick of combat.
Duo & Trio Showdown
In simpler terms, Trunks’ primary move allows him to explode several crates simultaneously, increasing the rate at which he collects power cubes. With an appropriate team composition, he becomes a formidable opponent, particularly when he gathers enough power cubes. To maximize his potential, consider pairing him with a ranged healer like Poco for offensive attacks as well as healing abilities.
Brawl Stars Trunk Guide – What Modes Should I NOT Use Alli In?
Bounty/Knockout/Wipeout
In general, these gameplay styles often advantage long-distance combatants because of their larger build and structure. A fighter like Trunk might find it challenging to pursue an adversary who is positioned far on the map. Additionally, upon reaching a foe, they usually have a tactic to stun, mute, or push them away. All in all, they may not excel in these types of game modes.
Solo Showdown
On their own, Trunk might find it challenging in one-on-one encounters. However, they are capable of demolishing several containers simultaneously and using vegetation for concealment. Yet, if the map is expansive and boxes are hard to locate, Trunk may face difficulties against opponents with ranged attacks.
In summary, this concludes our comprehensive guide on Brawl Stars’ Trunk. May your efforts bear fruit as you endeavor to unlock her. We trust you will have a blast using Trunk in your battles!
