A bit late to the party, but I only pulled him on the Atlantis few days ago. Since Tarlak showed me no love (and I wouldn’t have potions to level him up anyway), this weirdo will replace mr Annoying Monkey on my titan squad.
*** Will he make you main team?**
My team as in the Titan Team, yes. While overall he has potential to be even more annoying than monkey, he will be more durable (WK is usually a 1-hit meal for 11* titan) and faster. Especially can’t wait to use him against purple, with his elemental link.
*** Will you use him on Defense? Offense? Quests/Events? Titans?**
He’ll be my 2nd maxed yellow 5 star, he’ll likely see some wars, but because his buff is HP dependent I don’t expect him to be game-changer. I’ll test him out against purple tanks in Vivica - Jackal - Ranvir trio and see how it turns out. He’ll make it to the Druid quests and maybe the Halloween season ladder & Pirate event against purples.
Anyone tried tanking with the guy? My alliance runs yellow tanks for war, and my only option now is Vivica who is slow and squishy. Ranvir will be my only alternative. Any experiences? My other heroes I use for war defense are Zimkitha - Kunchen - Magni - Zeline.
*** Will you give Ranvir Druid emblems? Which Talent Grid path will you choose?**
Zimkitha takes them and her use for me is far more critical. Which path I would go? As for other utility heroes, he needs to survive enough to fire off. But him being fast makes it rather easy task. I’d probably skip defense and go attack / HP. Thorn minion would compensate for little more survivability. But again… that’s only when Zimkitha is maxed so still 1000 emblems away.
*** What do you think of his special?**
- it is fast - great advantage over Wu. For titans I prefer to save the mana pots for healer or elemental debuff. With this, the timing control will be easier
- More attack buff than Wu’s
- A bit more miss chance but I don’t think that will be visible
- I dislike the HP dependency. Of course that won’t matter for titans, but he’ll be just Jackal tier sniper in any PVP use most of the time. It could be that the HP difference affects the accuracy debuff only and I think I’d use it more. I didn’t use the guy yet, he’s only on 2nd ascension at the moment, but I feel it will make me scratch my head more than once.
*** What do you think of his character design?**
I like that they add diversity while contributing to the overall ‘darker’ look of the game. Was surprised to see him being centaur, but it’s a nice tweak.
