More important. Wilbur or Falcon

[Kilted]

So I just finished maxing Sumle and put 20 emblems on him. Now on a team with Boldtusk+20, Mist+2, Kingston & Anzogh (only 3/70 short of rings and he is not the first who will get them). I am a 3-1-1 player, fits how I play the game. Not interested in going to 4-1 or Mono.

I had been all set to start on Wilbur to replace Anzogh for the big damage possible for Sumle (and increase Mist’s too) But I have just got Guardian Falcon from coins after finishing Legendary.

Which do you think works better in the team? ( if it helps I have enough monk emblems to +20 Wilbur, but all paladin emblems go to Richard currently)

Wilbur and Falcon are top quality 4 star red heroes and you will eventually max both of them. As a combo they work perfectly also.

That said if I’m choosing only one of them, Falcon’s elemental def down is maybe the rarest skill, so my votes is for him. First of all, excellent for titans.Then, you can even bring a def down hero in another color in your 3-1-1 raid strategy, so the effects stack etc. Charging 2 average speed heroes in different colours at the same time is kind of tricky, but if you are committed to 3-1-1 you are probably gotten used to it already.

Wilbur and Sumle are a dream together. Wilby will give def down and spread Sumles damage to all so that the misses doesn’t matter.

Falcon is very fragile. He needs to be high on talents (+12 and up) to survive, while Wilbur is a real life saver even with a few nodes.

If you don´t play mono Wilbur will be more useful to the non red heroes.

Say it all together,

It depends on the rest of your roster.

Wilbur and Falcon, together they fight crime

This is a similar discussion of red 4* heroes

(Kelile emblems?)

I like heroes that help the whole team. Boldtusk, Wilbur, Falcon on a 3x to 5x red team significantly increase the effectiveness

Boldtusk and Falcon, together they fight crime

Boldtusk and Falcon are pseudo 5* heroes due to defense stat being similar to a red 5* HotM

Boldtusk

@Gryphonknight

Red 5* heroes

Red 5* heroes used to be more squishy before red 5* HotM, Seasonal red 5* heroes and Challenge red 5* heroes ( rumor- it’s only a flesh wound).

@Gryphonknight

Boldtusk

Boldtusk is the only red 4* healer.

Boldtusk 4* 4.70 has Defense 711. Only Marjana ( Defense 712 ) has a similar defense among the Classic red 5* Heroes.

@Gryphonknight

Marjana 712, Khagan 642, Azlar 607 and Elena 578

My Boldtusk 4*+18 has Defense 840 and HP 1248. Compare to red 5* 4.80- Santa ( Defense 830, HP 1437 ), Anzogh ( Defense 793, HP1279 ), Ares ( Defense 741, HP 1442 )

@Gryphonknight

Falcon

@Gryphonknight

The single best elemental defense debuff in the game. The defense stat of a red 5* hero with decent 4* HP ( similar to Ranivr ) lets him stay alive. Target and nearby red defense debuff can effect 3 targets and an only be overwritten by a red defense debuff / buff. Boldtusk is also red, has revive, heal and nerfed from 5* Boldtusk stats to an actual 4* Boldtusk stats. Wilbur lowers enemy defense for the rest of the team, and gives team a defense boost, which is insanely powerful considering Falcon’s and Boldtusk’s defense stats.

Normally I would not off color, all 1*/ 2* hero, power level Falcon, but Falcon is a 5* Hero in disguise, like the old Boldtusk. A niche 5* Hero in disguise, but still. With but with Boldtusk, and Wilbur, a very very effective niche. Do not use against blue titans. Combine him with the heroes in your roster and Falcon will definitely improve the power of you roster.

Falcon is very fragile.

I mean, he’s a 4*, but pretty sure you’re thinking of Jackal, who is a glass cannon. Falcon is pretty sturdy for a 4; he just hits like a wet noodle.

[Kilted]

Thanks for the thoughts everyone. I think I will probably go Wilbur first as he will help me out in more situations even if I end up rejigging this team at some stage.
