Ironbreakers are the stalwart protectors of the dwarfen holds, considered by many to be the elite of their kind. Clad in magnificent runic armour and brandishing weapons of incomparable make, they muster in the deepest, darkest tunnels, prosecuting an endless battle against Skaven and worse.

Before he embraced a Ranger’s duties, Bardin earned his beard as an Ironbreaker in the great hold of Karak Norn. Skills burnished in darkness did not lose their lustre in the light. Following the defence of Ubersreik, Bardin felt the Ironbreaker’s oaths and gromril armour calling him once again, for only an Ironbreaker could stand as a bulwark against the evils gathering against the surface world.

As an Ironbreaker, Bardin is the indomitable bastion upon which the Vermintide breaks apart, a rallying point for straggling allies and a grim promise of death to rampaging foes. Be they ratman or Rotblood, no foe shall easily overcome the Ironbreaker, not while he has breath in his body and dwarf-forged gromril in his hand.

Under Pressure's in-game description is misleading, the actual damage values range from 20% damage to 220% damage, and the attack speed values range from 200% to 50%, this talent affects both the Drakegun and Drakefire Pistols.
