i still would like the hero to do what card claims when he revives someone …

Just pulled this one but already started Winifred from SE. The damage reduction element of card seems to be best skill from card from what I am reading above. I am guessing somewhere between 4-500 in normal PVP against 6000 TP teams? How is it working against cards with multiple hits to same hero? Flat 400 or so reduction on first hit and rest as is?
It works… Hopefully as expected… And maybe it is subjective… But I’m happy with the results… So happy I’m keeping the results… private.

I’ve also been using him and I agree that’s the ward thing is good as well as a decent normal heal but the revive part of the special is definitely is lacking something afterwards, 30% health isn’t much and for me is a big part of his special that’s not working right.
On offense you can get around it by taking an extra healer but that’s not necessarily a good option on defence

We outgunned our war opponent… But with this team… I had this result all in a row.
Check all the zeros…
Yes arco and Ludwig and hathor and fortuna had something to say on the matter… But I know relius was key.

I missed a name… Y’all need me to edit it again?
I really wanted Fulvia, but I agree that this one is very strong. I was going to double limit break my costumed MaNo, but this one will get the aethers instead, for all the reasons you listed. I have 5 legendary revivers so far, and I think this one is my favorite. Too bad she’s nature though LOL
Agree. This is the one I’m aiming for to pull but i got fulvia and timius instead. I need a reviver.
Can you add your defense team here, thank you!
That’s a scary team 20 cha
For those who leveled & are using Relius, what are your thoughts? Even with the apparent bug to the HP gain after revive, this owl appears to have some serious potential. @2puttshaqur @MountainMann @Blessed-I-Am & others
I just pulled Frond, a hero I’ve coveted since release, and should start power leveling… but I’m looking at the Relius I pulled and find myself hesitating (even though I recently leveled Lysanor to replace MN).
Thanks & happy gaming!

Relius is the greatest defensive hero I’ve ever had.
He reduces damage for AOE heroes to 1, often. Big hitters still can do some damage, but you can roughian or waddles them and basically not give a damn about the rest of the hitters.
The damage reduction works like the sif/black knight dynamic … where damage is reduced to 1, but the counterattack registers before that. This lil bird is fantastic. Thanks why I was telling people not to complain until they use the guy… He’s that good.

Impressive. I had a feeling there was something there, but these new mechanics are difficult to understand without a math degree.
Other than the heal on revive not working as is on the card, what are the drawbacks to Relius?
Average revive is great. Family bonus goes off against sorcerer talent, even when ailment block is up.
The guy is great. Just needs to be fixed… And hopefully the damage reduction works as sg intended so they DON’T nerf that aspect. But… He is so good against heroes from last year and before…
Against the new heroes that are crazy overpowered, they hit with a decent chunk, but it isn’t crazy.
So outside of the heal after revive… Is the possibility that he is too good and they Nerf him… But he also may get the Aramis treatment and get a pass.
So if the damage of the special skill of the opponents is equal or less than 800 the damage is 1?
Very impressive
What I need to do is a ton of raids. Compare the attack power versus defense, take that delta and chart it. My guess is that damage is flat and then rises exponentially… But you really need 2x lb to make a dent. I think single lb will register damage, but not a ton.

I did some raids with counter attack. I mentioned it before, but I thought I would share my data. I used an emblemed Azmia, so her is between 100 and 130%.
| Counterattack | |
|---|---|
| Damage received | Counter Damage |
| 522 | 835 |
| 99 | 570 |
| 1 | 389 |
| 353 | 816 |
| 1 | 574 |
| 1088 | 1483 |
| 355 | 708 |
| 87 | 640 |
The counter damage is tallied first, then just like with black knight and sif, the damage to the heroes is calculated second.
Since Relius gives his moon thing to everyone… I would say your best synergies are Anzia (ice elemental that everyone hated), the 4* like ferant and Azmia, but I lean counter to all, so Zhuge Liang getting the call up out of the bullpen… and boril and cyprian’s first costume. I’d also consider the c obakans because they are 3 and generate mana…
So… start limit breaking your zhuge’s… you know you want to.
Also… Liu Bei works well because they are both average nature heroes and you can stuff the counter attack minions behind so many… arco and leadria for beefiness, but also telluria and mielikki work… so… play with it as you see fit… but don’t come knocking on my door when your cups rise so damn high that you start losing half of your raid attacks.
