šŸŒž Ironmaw ā€“ 5* Holy / Yellow from Contest of Elements

Agree, Iā€™m surprised the polls were so harsh on him. But then again comparing him to heroes like Shaal itā€™s not surprising since thatā€™s the new standard :sweat_smile:

Most defenses will only have one dark enemy, so 500% at average to one is pretty weak. Maybe heā€™d be ok at tank. If he did minor damage to all other allies, more players would be excited to pull/chase after.

I just pulled him. Looks like he received a buff since his original release. My dilemma is I was just ready to limit break Erlang Shen I recently got. I was wondering if I should start on this guy, or continue with Erlang Shen. Any suggestions are gladly welcomed.

Itā€™s 500% to the target and all Dark enemies. So if the enemy team only has 1 dark, you donā€™t fire it at the dark, you fire it at anyone else and it hits them AND the dark for 500% each. Itā€™s only ā€œjust 1ā€ if there are no (alive) darks.

Yes exactly, itā€™s kind of like how Xandrella works so heā€™s always guaranteed to hit at least 2 heroes unless your opponent is running mono with no purple. Thatā€™s why I see him as a Jana improvement, who also hits two heroes hard at average.

@flxrod4 Iā€™d definitely go Erlang Shen as heā€™s one of the top holy heroes and also OP in equiliser wars and always will be :smiling_imp:

A tip to all use soul bond on def team then fire ironmaw hit all.

Thanks man. I was somewhat leaning in that direction. Just needed a push.

Im assuming if he picks a dark target its only 500%ā€¦not 500% (target) + 500% (dark) for total ~1000% to dark targetā€¦

If he worked that way he would be good for killing dark tanksā€¦its what i thought his purpose could be and wpuld be worth levelingā€¦

Otherwise you definitely donā€™t target a darkā€¦but often the tank has taunt so you canā€™t do thatā€¦

Should rework him to:

Deals 500% Damage to target.

Deals 500% to all dark enemies.

Edit: it does say deals extra damage to dark but i doubt that extra is double. I forget how much extra isā€¦something like 40% or something.

Sorry Iā€™m a bit confused, he already does 500% damage to target and all dark enemies, whatā€™s the difference with what youā€™re proposing?

Then you could attack the dark target two times. Once for 500% and again for another 500%. As of now if you target a dark it only hits it once.

Itā€™s like Xandrella, if she targets blue she hits only them. If she targets someone else then she hits n(blue) + 1 targets. Also apparently Timius is immune to her debuff because his passive causes it to overwrite it with mana buff. A bit OT, sorry.

Needs a little something extra to compete with todayā€™s heroes IMO. U need multi role heroes at best & with that said places in a team are so precious u need more in todayā€™s meta. I mean jeez !! His base stats are 2 less than Sir Casmir !!
