Overview[]
| “ | Can only be blocked by units with 4 Block or higher. Can carry up to 4 passengers, and unloads its passengers upon first reaching a Ladder | ” |
| —Tooltip (shared with Sand Voyager) |
A Yanese APC designed to operate in the deserts surrounding Yumen and siege warfare commandeered by the Shanhaizhong during their attack on the fortified nomadic city, Sandwalkers boast extremely high HP along with high ATK and DEF, although their nearly nonexistent RES makes them vulnerable to Arts damage as well as moving incredibly slowly; slowest among all enemies. In addition, the Sandwalker is counted as four enemies when blocked, making it only blockable on its own by Ling's Higher Thunderers or Operators with a block count of 3 and have it increased through certain methods.
When the Sandwalker comes into contact with an enemy so long as it is not disabled, they will be loaded into the Sandwalker until it is destroyed or reaches a Ladder at which the passengers will evacuate, potentially allowing the passengers to bypass defenses (especially if no friendly units are able to block the Sandwalker) or get closer to the Protection Objectives. The Sandwalker can hold up to four passengers; any additional enemies in its path will not be loaded, it can neither load Machina enemies nor bosses, and no longer able to load enemies after unloading them on a Ladder.
