I need some advice voor red titan team. (And titan teams in general) I am a free/cheap to play player so my line up isnt that big.
1.5 years ago i pulled Shar’khai and upgraded him in no time to 75/25 as strong as he can be. Use him against all titans except dark. With fitter i took guardian gazelle costume and last week I pulled Wilbur costume.
The red titan team i use now is dlb toon boldtusk, dlb Khufu for EDD, dlb pepperflame for DD, lb toon Azlar for high tile dmg and Shar’khai for attack up and crit chance.
Should I bring in for team, C Ggazelle and replace boldtusk and shar’khai? Or should I invest in Wilbur costume? Also should I dlb C Ggazelle if i take that route?
I’d go for replace Boldtusk with Gazelle or an elemental damage dealer (specific on fire element like marjana pirate or guardian falcon or others from newest families now I don’t remember), letting the attack buff and crit to shar-khai…it’s true they can also combine their skills but sometimes nerfing titan defense or buff gems attack (Zenobia) are more effective than Boldtusk simple adding +30% atk…guess its also about the tiles in table you get but my titan red team is marjana + 2 snipers + 1 between Zenobia and malum + shar-khai or phenexa (similar skills).
Wilbur costumed is similar to shar-khai but without crit bonus it’s less useful, it’s worth to have for events but (I think) not for titans if you have the heroes previous listed.
Thanx for the reaction. Khufu is elemental defense down hero! I also have 2nd costume Colen.
I am wondering to reset khufu and use his eathers to max out Malum (who i am still training)
So bring a team of dlb 2nd C Colen, dlb pepperflame, dlb malum, dlb or lb C Ggazelle and azlar for tile damage.
I tend to run Toon Boldtusk - Wilbur - C-Wilbur - c1-Marjena - Hammerclang.
Generally you want a Defense Down hero (Gormek, Wilbur…), an Elemental Defense Down (Khufu, c1-Marjena, Guardian Falcon), an Attack up hero (Any Boldtusk, others), an “extra Attack up” (C-Wilbur, Oceanus). If using Gazelle, omit the normal attack up, since she overwrites it anyway.
Your last hero could be an increase criticals, an increase received damage (Hammerclang, Gastille, Franz, Treevil), a healer (if you need it), a defense up (if you need it, though turtle banners will work), or just the highest attack stat you have.
For the red team CWilbur is better than Sharky, for the other 4 teams I would keep Sharky.
Gazelle is an option for the yellow team, but be careful she removes all other buffs from your heroes, so make sure you have no other buffs.
What you need in your red team is Buster. You don´t need Boldtusk, you can replace him with a bear banner to make space on the team.
If you have Franz (or similar) then he´d have to go in all 4 other teams, if you don´t have him, put Buster in all 5 titan teams together with Sharky.
I did pull buster a few weeks ago but I am still training Malum in red now. I also have Franz but isnt bringing several heroes of the wrong colour bad for the total damage output?
CWilbur is indeed not bad but sharkie has 35% chance to crit (double damage) I think its better.
I tried my lb once Gazelle on some teams and she isnt indeed a game changer. She works well in pvp though.
Buster is a 3star, you´ll be done in no time. Malum is going to take forever anyway, not much difference if you put a 3 star in between. Anyway whenever you do him you put him on the team. And since you already have Franz, you only need Buster for the red team, Franz will do all other colors and he can do red while you don´t have Buster ready.
Yes bringing heroes of the non strong color is not perfect, however having the right skills is more important. That is why you are trying to get every skill in every color or at least in as many colors as possible to reduce off color heroes. Personally I would play max 2 off color heroes. By now I have max 1 (or none) off color hero on my teams, but it takes a while to get there
In this case Franz skill is one of the must-haves (just like some kind of normal attack booster), so altogether your team will be better with Franz. Of course Buster being red will be better than Franz on the red team once you get him ready.
Same as above, red is better than not red on the red team. As long as the skill is comparable, a slightly worse skill in the stronger color is better. Same for CWilbur vs Sharky as it is for Buster vs. Franz.
Bring the strong color ones where you have them, but if you have to go off color then bring the strongest skill. So you use Wilbur + Buster in the red team and Sharky + Franz in all 4 other teams.
She is probably your best choice for the yellow team for the Sharky spot, see above on strong color vs slightly worse skill. Make sure you use no other attack buffs on the same team as her, only ailments. Goldie is a great addition with growth (another of the must-have skills)
Thanx for the reaction!
I will train buster indeed. Malum is almost 4/80, I pulled him last tower so he is in training for a month now. I was planning to train Buster him after this. And maybe even earlier.
I have a dlb Franz and I use him on green titan team for 3 years now. I will test him out in other colours. Although I am still a bit skeptical.
I have been thinking about CWilbur vs Sharkai. And i just cant imagine Cwilbur giving more damage. The 1/3 of all hits in critical (double damage) is something you never get back bringing an other 4* hero of the right colour with similar skill but without the critical hits. Also Sharkai is a dlb 80-25 hero with much better troops (max 5* lvl 30) then I ever will be able to give CWilbur.
CGazelle I indeed will use for pvp and yellow titan teams. And I have Goldie so I will try that out.
Personal opinion from my own experience. It’s better to have the correct components to attack a titan rather than going mono.
DD-EDD-Tile Enhancement-Damage Increase-Attack boost
IF you have all those components in the strong colour then great. If not, then the components are more important If you have DD, EDD & Tile enhancement in the strong colour.
Funnily enough, my rainbow team does more damage on average than any other team I have put together against a titan, including mono. Espeically without items or with only low level items (No Tornadoes, Scrolls etc)
Sure crit is a nice bonus skill to have no doubt about it. But it´s not that huge a deal. Sharky only has 20% crit the first time you fire and then goes up to 35% the second time he fires. How often does it happen you fire him twice on a titan? and then have tiles after that? So I am guessing most of the time it´ll be 20% which means 1 out of 5 tiles will do more damage and then maybe the last few tiles you get more damage out of 1 in 3 tiles. Bringing a red hero instead of a purple one will make 5 out of 5 tiles do 20% more damage, but from the beginning to the end without even having to fire a skill at all.
In addition having an off-color hero means you have to charge 2 colors before dealing full damage, which is an additional complication. Unless you want to constantly use mana items to charge Sharky.
And if we rope Franz into that comparison: He makes your tiles do 20% less damage (being off color), but he boosts all damage (including every single tile) by 50% after all the other effects have been calculated (which is WAY bigger than doing it before like all the other stuff), which is why this skill is simply obligatory against titans, Of course still better if you can have it on color.
That is largely irrelevant for off color heroes, as it only affects their own (in this case purple) tiles and no matter what, the purple tiles won´t be doing much damage on a green titan, just look next time how much damage a purple tile does and how much damage a red tile does, after all the effects are in place.
Naturally, giving and on-color hero (like Wilbur in this case) emblems/LB will influence your damage a lot more, because it is the combined on-color attack stat of your heroes that is the base for the bulk of your damage. And of course same is true for Sharky on yellow titans.
