Hi, all is in the title : what do you think about Horghall costume as a tank ?
I don’t have a lot of 5* tanks (Horghall, of course, Vivica and Raffaele) and I would like to know if this new version of Horghall could be at least ok for this purpose, even though I know that Horghall is a quite “meh” hero.
About the same as without the costume: not brilliant.
I guess, as a tank, Raffaele > Vivica >> Horghall-C.
Hogrhall has tons of HP - but this is just not enough…
Actually costume Horgall is a better option than raffaele and vivica which are terrible choices… (raffaele is probably the worst choice).
What’s the rest of your roster ?
In 5*, I’ve got :
Blue : Fenrir, Raffaele
Yellow : Malosi, Norns, Vivica
Green : Horghall, Tarlak
Purple : Guardian Panther, Clarissa
Red : Guardian Kong, Red Hood, Elena, Marjana
You have better options.
I have Horghall maxed and just got the costume, and I have less 5* heros than you - but I don’t think I’ll make him a tank. Have Clarissa and Gravemaker, and will choose one of those. Probably Clarissa as a tank, GM as a flank when I max them. Will see if Horghall-c can make it to the second flank, at least as long as sth better come along in green.
Still have to try those options.
Normal Horghall with costume bonus would probably work better
My vote goes to Clarissa as tank on your roster.
So Clarissa may be a good tank ?
It looks like she’s not the top tier tank, but can do the job decently. Being paladin, very fast, I can imagine her being good in some defence set ups… My alliance is running purple tanks, so she’s gonna replace my c-Tibertus soon.
Nice to know, I didn’t think that kind of heroes could be a good tank. I must try.
Norns flanked by Panther and Clarissa also works rather well.
True, I rarely see Norns and I don’t have her, but could work nice I guess.
Well, she doesn’t punish much, but with a good team behind, I saw her being annoying when the board is not so great… That’s what I’m hoping for pairing her with Gravemaker. If the board is not so good, those 2 could fire multiple times and cause much pain to the attackers.
You’re probably right, I mean it is two differents strategies (Clarissa or Norns) that deserve to be tested.
What color your alliance is running for alliance war?
If that’s not a substantial matter, I would say that clarissa is your best tank option.
Although you don’t really have good greens and yellows defenders.
Therefore an option would be to opt for something like :
Maŕjana - panther - vivica - clarissa - fenrir
Thanks for your advice Artamiss, now I have several ideas. I will try by myself and leave Horghall on the bench for a moment.
