I use LJ with Evelyn and Melendor as my green stack for blue tanks in Diamond Raids.
I also like him on Quests and Season 2 stages when appropriate. He’s great for mana control and hard hitting.
He also comes along for Wars, and he’s on my blue Titan team with Evelyn and Melendor too.
I maxed Gadeirus recently. I’ve been swapping him in for LJ on Season 2 Stages to test him out, especially when a green stack with Wilbur and Proteus makes sense.
I haven’t swapped him into my main Raid green stack…but might consider it. I think I still prefer LJ’s attack and debuff for Raids, though.
And I like LJ’s high attack stat for Titans, and am skeptical that Gadeirus’ buff would be useful there…by the time he’s charged there probably won’t usually be mana green tiles left.
I’m finally maxing Skittles after sitting at 3-60 for many months.
Skittles is on a Class Trials team or two for me, so that’s helpful, but mostly I’m just waiting for the 4* Rush Attack drop green Raid Tournament where the trifecta of Skittles, Gadeirus, and LJ will get to turbo blast the fungus out of everyone.
I’m sure you’d use him sometimes, but I doubt it would be often for where your bench is at.
If u sit at 2500+ cups then your use for kash no longer exists
I’d toss LJ on your titan team with evelyn and gad
Regular D buffer Evelyn gad lj Wu in that order actually
LJ is also good for events specifically ones with a good chunk of blue mobs(think avalon but would have to double check), he hits all with special and has highest tile damage out of the 4* greens and even higher than most 5* greens outside of zeline, tarlak, and maybe 1 or 2 others
Not best, but definitely most useful one! Unfortunately even at +9 on the defense path he still is the target of choice for snipers and often dies before casting in raids…
I like LJ I have mines at 3.60 , haven’t really carried him more than that… at one point I had 2… It’s awesome if he survives but still more of a glass cannon .
If you got the shields and no other project then go w him, else just keep it all. Personally I like Kashy , finally pulled a 2nd one some months ago but I’ve yet to level him and I think I’ll feed him…
I’m also closing in on a green checkpoint here… close to maxing the Elk and then not sure about my next green… got some waiting for feeders… L.J., Gobbler, Horgh and Kadilen (for 3/70 max), a second Caedmon, a second Melendor, even 3* Mensseus might be of use for class quests and 3* tourneys… what to do, what to do…
I already got a full maxed green team… Caedmon, Melendor, Skittleskull, Kashrek and Elk (closing on 4/80), plus five or six 3*…
I have LJ, nearly Feed him away, but then I saw where he could be useful. Upcoming challenge event! A green damage all under condition where I can feed him mana potions. I’ll take him in that team for epic, if I can get him ready until next week, otherwise hansel2, kashrek or melendor (all at level 3-something):
When the time came to give my first set of 4 shields away my choices were Lianna at 2/60 and Skittleskull at 3/60. Even though skittle was great for farming, i chose Lianna to bring to 3/70 instead of maxing a 4* green. This was before i had spent any money.
After that i just kept passing up leveling a 4* green even though it made epic challenge events more difficult for me.
I even then maxed a Zeline and brought Evelyn up to 3/70 for titans.
My thoughts were i was going to max LJ as my first 4* nature hero. Instead, i decided to bring Melendor to max first but, LJ is definitely on my list as a YES. Even at 3/60 he has won me many war fights because of his mana control!
So, I say YES he is shield worthy!
You could want him for an all green 4* stack (events) or for rush battles.
For Alliance Wars you could want faster heroes but his attack score is no joke.
Based on your trophy score I’m going to agree with those who say you’re past peak-Kashhrek usefulness, without need to know who your tank is.
Little John is definitely a luxury item, but based on the greens you list it seems like you’re at that point. You should add him for events, raid tournaments, etc. You didn’t list any alternatives besides Kashhrek, and I’d go Little John over him.
Re; 4 star barbarians, do you really not have Grimm? If you’re struggling in the Barbarian Trials, that’s yet another place I think LJ can add something for you. His mana slow is actually really useful in his trials, despite his color being completely wrong for the boss fights.
I like him, cause he was my first Atlantis hero. Overall the slow mana isn’t my thing, but against blue titans with his Att+ and heal he is always in, also for fitting challenge events. His attack is laughable, looks like a beast and hits like mouse. He has tank stats, but slow is slow, since I miss green 5stars I will try him flanked with 2 fridas maybe someday to go down in cups and tell you the sad results stats are like that now, only thing that could help him as a tank are the minions, which are strong, on flank he would never fire in my opinion:
I really love LJ, but at your current state it don’t add much if not talent quests and epic events.
Titans you have the Evelyn-Gadeirus-Skittle trio (i do not switch mana control for attack reducer in your shoes) and another healer (Kashrek) is always good as back up in wars.
