Def team help please! -leveling and emblems

I’m at the stage where emblem choices for defence are starting to impact my choices and I’m not sure how to proceed… any thoughts would be very helpful!

I need a green tank for war defence and that option for me is Yunan+10. Current team is
marj / c.magni / Yunan / Freya / c.joon

Which would be fine except magni and Yunan share fighter emblems so I’m looking for alternatives.

  1. I could swap tank but the alternative of elkanen is a lot worse than yunan from watching my Def performance so I’ve ruled that out.

  2. I could swap c.magni for c. Richard (his atk down and Freyas Def up could work well, but attack isn’t the best here, and would have to strip Clarissa of emblems)

  3. Another alternative is Ariel and Clarissa flanks which seems more sensible but relies only on dot damage and I’m enjoying Freya at the moment for pseudo heal and Def+ but Ariel and Freya together would be too passive.

Only got 6 scopes to max either Ariel or Richard so will be stuck with the choice for a while…

  1. Of course, other suggestions welcome if anyone is kind enough to spend the time to help. I have mats for 1x red, yellow, blue. Full 5*s below:

Red: Marj(max+E), grazul(max), Tyr(max), c.Azlar, Lady Loki, Baldur, c.Elena

Blue: c.Magni(max), c. Isarnia(max), Ariel, c.Richard, Raff, Skadi, Fenrir

Green: Yunan(max+E), c.elk(max+E), Liana(max+E), c. Horghall, Zooc,

Yellow: c.joon(max+E), ranvir (max), Delilah, Roc, vivica, Leonidas, Inari

Purple: Freya(max+E), Clarissa (max+E), Grimble (max), c.domitia, Aeron, sartana, mok-arr

Thanks!

My choice would be Marjana, cmagni, yunan, clarissa, marjana.

Have you tries Elkanen without wearing costume? That one seems better tank to me than costume version. Not saying, it’s better than yunan. Just intrested, how that work.

I would level Ariel over Richard. Actually I would level 2nd her before Richard. She ia one of the best healers in this game. I wouldn’t use her in defence team though.

You wont find better option for your telescopes other than Ariel, believe me, she is lifesaver! Also you really have nice heroes but unfortunately do not have Vela and Telluria :confused:
Would mind trying this?

C.Joon-Ariel-Yunan-Clarissa-Marjana

Argh tell me about it. I couldn’t get them no matter how many pulls, then last month got 6 Raffs :frowning_face:

Thanks for the advice, I’ll try that team I think it’s the best option for now. As an aside, What do you think about c.azlar in defence? Id like him as flank but having a slow tank and flank feels wrong although Ariel’s mana boost could help. If not I may ascend lady Loki for offence instead

I would definitelly consider c.Azlar + 19 in wing position. He would fire late in the battle when enemies would most likely have low health so a hit from Azlar would kill anybody. Costume + emblems + 20% defense hidden bonus would have Azlar around 900 -950 defense and 1500 -1600 hp with 900 attk

Ooh that’s an interesting option, thank you. I had only considered him in flank to be honest but that could work :thinking: question is whether he would end up firing or not before being taken out

Elkanen, costume or not, ain’t a bad hero… he just is not good… he is mediocre… his name could very well serve as the definition for mediocrity in the dictionary… I would have loved a costume Elk who hit 300% to target and nearby and stole 20% mana from them for three turns…

He doesn’t steal mana? I think, he would be better tank without wearing costume to be honest. Stealing healing is just way too easy to pass by, when attacking.

Not saying he is good hero. Just wanted to know, how he would work as tank. I’m not going to level him for that test. :sweat_smile:

No tank material there… too… average in every aspect…

This. Or replacing Ariel with costumed Azlar on left flank so as for him to be able to fire. In most cases in defense, very slow, slow and average heroes MUST be a tank or as flank, not at the wings. Wings are good when the hero is fast or very fast. With Azlar, your defense core will deal initial damage and DOT, while your wings shoot down dying attacking heroes one by one.
