I usually get 2ā€¦ maybe 3. Occasionally I sit him next to ludwigā€¦ and he can go off moreā€¦ but there are no targets left. If you are up against a REALLY bulky healing/minion/overheal 5* troop all 2x lbā€¦ the battle can go on a while, but I think those usually involve nautica kicking my butt.

Thanks to everyone responding to me! Alphas are important so I want to use them when crucial. This has given me a lot of great infoā€¦the forum has some really awesome people.

I tank him with Odile on my defense and am currently around 3300 trophies consistently. Even going full sword path, his defense sits at 1400 which is pretty damn good. I figure if he fires early, he wonā€™t kill right away and the bleed damage can do itā€™s thing

Of course, not seeing my defense in action I canā€™t say for sure. Looking at you devs!

Sheesh, completely forgot about the attack stack and liked him anyway.
At 4-84 and will probably settle there for a bit because Alpha Aethers arenā€™t as plentiful as I would like.

Only killing already damaged heroes, most of the LB2 beasts with Legendary troops can take the hit.
With Nautica, Sha, Shaal appearing regularly there is also a lot of healing happening on my opponents teams. It has happened several times that Nautica is hanging by a thread, Shaal, Sha and Nautica fire and the entire enemy team is overhealed and I am hanging by a thread,

There are enough heroes that resist ailments in a variety of ways (Hathor & Aramis give it (donā€™t see him much any more), Toons from passive, dancing heroes (Odile, Odette) or simply nullify your specials like Changā€™e) that the spread is often limited in my experience to date.

Iā€™m only getting one or two. I only have him at 4-65 and definitely plan on limit breaking. Probably 2lb too. Either he gets a kill on a snipe and donā€™t get around to more stacks or because heā€™s my weakest attack hero he does (for now). So the stacks arenā€™t building up as much as I was hoping but Iā€™m also winning.

I also use Goldie on my team so it helps him one shot enemies.

I have him 4/90 and use him in my defense. Cups range from 3400-3700. I even left a couple of attack nodes out whilst embleming him purely because he will kill most opponents after initial snipe plus bleeding DoT and I wanted it to be able to spread.

What position do you think heā€™s best in for Defense? Left flank?

I think that all depends on your team setup. For me heā€™s on the right wing with max LT in defense. Xie on the left wing so she can dispel first before he fires on defense.
Also it all depends where you raid and how much and how fast your opponents can deal big damage.

While most of those still apply, Daroga doesnā€™t apply Poison, he applies Bleeding Damage.

I use him with Xie for her dispel even if they resist poison. Dispel the immunity, dodge etc away and then whack them for 700+ bleeding damage. If they are not immune to poison then itā€™s also another 500+ on top. Even a Nautica canā€™t handle that lol

Grrr, you are entirely correct. I will edit above.

Point that he is often stymied remains but I did attribute it incorrectly.

The toons ā– ā– ā– ā–  me off. They resist everythingā€¦ so if I get it to spreadā€¦ those sonā€™s a ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  respond with, No gloveā€¦ no love.

I like my ailment heroes, have quite a number of them that were mainstays, it has made things much more complicated when trying to use them.
Certainly need to plan war teams carefully if the opponents have a lot of toons on defense.

Since I got Lemonwood, the Toons are my favourite opponents :slight_smile: But for the green dancer here they are a pita!

so never misses applies to cleric resistance as well as the 75% resistence to ailments and mana reductionā€¦ good to know.

Yepā€¦ he fires a cascade of arrows like Pengi on steroids :slight_smile: Very nice to see Toons get a taste of their own medicine.

Just got this guy, was working on my second copy of Sha, but now im not sure who should get the tonics.
Sha Wujing nr 2 or Daroga?

Probably canā€™t make a mistake with those choices. I prefer varietyā€¦ Especially with daroga against taunt heroes.

This is probably because there are some dancers such as Odette, Odile or Prince Siegfried, and you canā€™t have other buffs active while they make others dance, but you can have stacks.

Also got him today. Was working on Lodius but will probably switch to Daroga because of that stacking buff - 250% of attack at max is huge, especially with Growth from Goblins. RIP titans. I have Firmin Richard but few scopes and I am mostly interested in increased attack so Daroga instead of Firmin will do, even if slower (but his stack is higher).
