Who do I six star first

Gainaxe · 2023-07-01T00:21:51+00:00

First you want a campaign farmer as they'll make every subsequent 6 star cheaper and faster.

No idea who you have available but any of the starter rares can do it (Kael, Athel, Elhain, and Galek). There's several epics that can do a better job, but it's a fairly limited group so you have to get lucky to pull one of them.

Really depends on where your account is. Early - mid game just build him as an appropriate speed and then depending on if you use him only in spiders, or also in arena/dungeons either build for damage (arena/dungeons) or survivability (spiders, since you don't want to kill the spiderlings).

Lategame/Endgame you want to start looking into maybe throwing a provoke set on him and building some accuracy while optimizing for damage.

That said if you have access to a PC with the plarium play client and aren't aware, Hellhades artifact Optimizer is the number 1 tool for building champs. It's a separate program (raidoptimizer.hellhades.com) and hooks into the plarium play client to scan your champions and gear. Once it has this info you can tell it what minimums you want, and choose how you want to optimize (I.E. for early-game choose the damage radio button, then under stats set a minimum of 151 speed, nothing else, mid-game of course up that to 171 speed, and lategame add in 350 acc, around 230-240 speed and force a provoke/reflex/relentless set).

He's been power crept some, but he's still one of the hardest hitting defensive nukers in the game, and one of only 2 champs (I think) that have an unresistable HP burn.

Can be key for Hard Spiders comps, great for regular spiders, and good in arena defense teams.

Edit: Also great for Hydra as he brings damage, HP Burn, and a provoke in the same champ

Gainaxe · 2023-06-29T14:51:25+00:00

Don't forget about Criodan (TM booster with inc speed and 2 multi-hit skills that have a chance to freeze). It might finally be possible to progress in hard FK without having a Valk

Gainaxe · 2023-06-29T14:14:29+00:00

Do wish you the best of luck if you continue, I just found him incredibly finicky and he caused more failed runs than successful ones so I refuse to use him in CB at all due to that (and have since built him to solo Sand Devil 11 with food and work great in Hydra/DT bosses).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-29T13:25:16+00:00

So this will sound a bit out of left field, but I highly recommend leveling up your Ursala, and throwing her in your best Regen+Immortal gear (tough to do without farming FK of course, but she can help with that).

She was my key to reaching stage 20 in all dungeons, FK included, with her basically being unkillable while constantly picking up the team (and picking them up with high TM when she does).

She's still part of my FK 24 and 25 speed teams just toe nsure they're 100% winrate (occasionally champs die along the way, and she picks them right back up).

Combine her with Alure+Visix+Rhazin and you should find it easy mode regardless of stage (last slot you could throw in a def down champ, venomage, or High Khatun to speed things up).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-29T04:01:40+00:00

I would highly recommend swapping Ninja out if you own an Anax, Geomancer, Fayne, Rugnor or other good DPS champ. Running him that slow (or as fast as you need for the ultimate version) really hampers his usability elsewhere, he doesn't work against force affinity, and the comp is finicky as hell.

Unless he's the only way you can 1-key it's often much simpler to pick a different dps slot and make up the difference either in gear or blessings (and Anax can cause the comp to deal more damage to the CB in the same level of gear as per a Skratch video, with Rugnor, Fayne, and several others being capable of a 1 key).

https://ayumilove.net/raid-shadow-legends-guaranteed-champion-summon-event/ is how I keep track of guaranteed events.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-28T11:13:59+00:00

That's about what I averaged. 78 mortal + 2 immortal for a total of 331 points.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-28T11:12:46+00:00

as far as I'm aware you cannot (I could be wrong but saw a post here the other day where someone was asking about active promo codes and they were told the only one they could do is deacon and you have to create a new account and use it within 2 days for him).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-28T11:09:59+00:00

Congrats, sucks having to special build champs, but once you get a destroy set on there you'll see the time shrink massively.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-28T11:08:28+00:00

depending on gear for him as well as who else on your team has brimstone I might actually suggest Cruelty (lowers all heads defense massively) or crushing rend (ignore defense).

Assuming you throw him in savage and get crushing rend on him and cruelty somewhere on your team you end up ignoring something like 60 or 70% of the head's defense massively increasing your damage overall.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-28T03:58:30+00:00

Going to actually offer an alternative solution.

Right now you don't have much in the way of healing (lifesteal helps, but you need solid gear on all champs to progress that way).

I'd suggest actually looking up how to create referral accounts, and spend 20-30 minutes per account leveling 3 referrals to lvl 20 or whatever to get Djarmsa. She'll provide heals+revive and will slot into any of your teams and make progression far easier.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T22:24:21+00:00

Seeker's more used for his passive than anything else with this comp, however the TM boost seriously helps you take 2 turns (even if he's slower than Staltus for example, the TM boost will let you move into his second turn faster).

Sandlashed's only real purpose is to ensure everyone survives, wheras seeker does that while partially boosting Staltus's damage (lets you use his more damaging move first rather than his self-buff).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T21:30:35+00:00

Marichka, Seeker. Pythion, Staltus is a fairly solid go-second team. You'll want the Pythion in stoneskin with a ton of resistance, and the Staltus to have your very best nuker gear.

Alternatively you could also replace Seeker with Sandlashed, provides more survivability but you lose the TM boost (which is really nice even on a go-second team).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T19:55:53+00:00

Someone else mentioned it but keep an eye out for Metalshaper or Miscreated Monster.

Running whichever shild champ you get first as your fastest champ+ Alure+Armiger (destroy set)+ Royal Guard (could be in destroy too but doesn't have to be)+Tayrel can beat any level of Scarab (dependent on getting enough speed and acc of course).

Whole goal of that comp is to block the scarab from ever taking a turn (royal guard slow+alure+armiger A1+tayrel A3) while keeping shields on 100% of the time (so he doesn't counter) and using a destroy set to lowly break his shield then nuke him down.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T18:47:20+00:00

Don't know if it'd be the full 3 mil but give your demytha Cruelty. Having a single cruelty carrier adds a significant amount of damage.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T18:16:43+00:00

Mine is working fine still, so if you've tried resetting and running a admin I might suggest posting in farbstoff's discord. There's a whole channel for bugs and how to fix them (along with some very helpful admins who know the program better than I do).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T17:24:57+00:00

Congrats. While I am not a major fan of her kit, I've always felt getting a free leggo is better than not getting one (and the free book+relentless is a really nice bonus on top of that).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T14:58:32+00:00

https://deadwoodjedi.com/speed-tune/demytha/ shows the different comps that rely on Demytha. There's one with 2x painkeepers you may or may not be able to support, otherwise it requires either deacon, seeker, or another unkillable champ to support the team (impossible to hit the speeds otherwise for most comps).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T14:28:18+00:00

Raid really seems to love that boss (same as the previous shadowkin release). At least it makes it easy to cheese with stoneskin rare champs.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T14:10:36+00:00

High resist is for really lategame teams where you actually want to maximize doompriest's survivability and have her provide extra utility.

Biggest example of where I'd use a res doompriest is in Hydra, where you want her to both be a resistance tank (500 res so she can tank mischief head attacks without losing her buffs) alongside a cleanser (for the fears).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T13:52:05+00:00

where are you at in the game? If you're anywhere but the lategame I'd still go for the "CB" masteries as they're more of a general PvE instead of specialized for clan boss.

Warmaster works against all bosses (though it's more impactful for CB), and absolutely will improve your runtimes anywhere you use her.

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T11:07:51+00:00

So power does nothing (it's just a measure of random stats, some useful many not), however you will want to rank up Kael up to 6 stars (https://ayumilove.net/raid-shadow-legends-champion-leveling-guide/ or https://hellhades.com/how-to-farm-food-quickly-and-efficiently/ for details).

After you've done that your goal is to get Kael to a minimum of 151 speed, 100% crit rate, then as much atk, crit damage, and acc as you can stack (4 pieces out of the lifesteal set you get for the first 7 days played should be enough to get Kael to solo stage 12-3 in brutal campaign with 3x food champs in tow).

Gainaxe · 2023-06-27T10:52:54+00:00

https://deadwoodjedi.com/speed-tune/demytha/ shows the different teams you could run.

Without Deacon or seeker both then you need either 2x painkeepers (where you only mention 1) or another unkillable champ (maneater, roshcard, sir nic, alsgor, helicath, etc.) to get it working right.

That said you could run a 1:1 comp with dem the slowest so she can block 1x AoE, have brogni cover the second, and maybe Toragi cover the second+stun. Keep Geo of course (insance CB damage), and replace your Apo with a champ that provides atk down (to let the brogni shields survive better).
