“This inseparable Tank and Ranged pair cover each other for an instantly effective offensive!”

Mountaineer is a ranged ground unit of the Alliance family in Warcraft Rumble. The dwarf deals strong damage while the bear is a sturdy tank; in addition the dwarf can heal the bear. As long as the duo are together, the mountaineer can keep enemies from swarming a location while also picking them off. They are, however, much weaker when one of the other dies—though talents can off-set this slightly. With talents, the mountaineer also synergizes with members of the Beast faction, as he can heal them.

Melee: Strong vs Ranged units.
Ranged: Attacks enemies from a distance.

Notes

They represent dwarven riflemen and mountaineers, as well as the hunter class.
- The bear-rifleman combo seems to hearken to the dwarf hunter shown in Seasons of War, the cinematic trailer for World of Warcraft.
The Mend Pets and Intimidation talents are named after [Mend Pet] and [Intimidation], respectively.
