Dark
Ursena can increase your titan’s damage by reflecting back their specials and she also is a good tank/flank.
Holy
Ranvir would increase your titan’s damage and he isn’t that bad in a defense but you really need a healer for War’s defense.
If you are sure you’ll draw Ariel you could go for Poseidon as he would help in a defense, otherwise ascend Vivica.
Inari could even be an ok choice as she could become very strong with QoH.
Fire
Azlar have a nice attack score but Queen of Hearts would increase your titan’s team survivability with her taunt and she could be tricky to deal with when you need to dispel a important buff like Ursena’s reflect.
example of your possibile team:
Kiril - Inari - Ursena - Queen of Hearts - Lianna
Wu Kong Cascade squad ( see Grinder gang for rest of team. See notes )
Grimm 4.70
Scarlett 2.01
Class quest crew ( use emblems to get emblems )
Sabina 2.32 ( 4* sorcerer healer - see notes )
Tiburtus 1.8 ( 4* ranger with Ramming pulverizer - see notes )
Niche
Caedmon 4.27 ( dispeller need buffed enemies )
Chao 3.37 ( mana reduction is weak compared to Proteus, Hansel and Merlin )
Danzaburo 1.14 ( surprisingly effective )
Kashhrek 4.35 ( incredibly tough for a 4* )
Gormek 1.23 ( Ramming Pulverizer, unlike Wilbur does damage )
Tiniest niche
Merlin 3.06 ( King of titan mana control, not as fast as Hansel, not as many targets as Proteus )
Ameonna 1.24 ( King of color stacking and anti-reflect damage. Or is that Queen ).
Li Xiu 3.01 ( yellow 4* center for defense, but Danzaburo can substitute and Danzaburo can be useful on attack ).
Duplicates
And color stacking.
For 3* Heroes I level multiple Belith and Hawkmoon because only 3* Healers and color stack red or green. Multiple Bane because 3* yellow are weak. Though Melia helps. Hisan and Rudolph are nice to have 2x 3* 3.50 .
For 2x 4* 4.70- yes ( that useful )
Proteus
For 2x 4* 4.70- maybe ( depending on your play style and roster )
Jackal
Grimm
Boril
Boldtusk
For 1x 4* 4.70 plus 1x 4* 3.60
Rigard
Melendor
Grimm ( Class quest )
Wu Kong ( high attack stat for a 4* yellow, skip if Jackal )
@zephyr1
Man how long you been playing? I thought I had alot of dups but you have alot that are maxed. My only dup I worked on was Grimm; 1 maxed +10 & the other is 3:1. As for Agwe mine is 3:34 for trials; my Proteus maxed +11 & the other 1:1. I started working on Merlin but I got Seshat I want to get her to at least 3:70 to team up with my 3:70 Evelyn. @Eaglecrest something that was said to me; How do you fair in all the trials? That is why I level the heros I do, to complete trials with no hangups
Thank you everyone for previous input. I am trying build a viable defense team. I have a second concern of having enough raid heros. I am doing well on titans and wars at this point so it’s time to build a strong D team. Any advice and positioning help would be appreciated?
@AirHawk , thank you for your time. I listed the heros not in any particular order but was considering first one listed based on research. I am open to changes until it’s right. Essentially the best Defense for raids and war of the heros listed.
@Eaglecrest, your first team is a great team and I think should do great as a team on offense and defense. You have snipers, a healer and a good tank. Only suggestion is to bring Vivica more to the centre in defense. I know one likes protecting the healer but you also like her not to trigger too late.
Thanks for sharing your teams - from Cosmic Guardians.
I see a lot of 4 stars heroes you should work particulary someone like rigard and some to finish like caedmon, kashrek, triton, sabina and some others. To have depth is this game is more important than to have just a very great team then norhing
