Uraeus – 5* Holy/ Yellow - Feburary 2021 HOTM (Hero of the Month) -- Initial Release

Both are not tanking-thing for sure: they don’t have the stats for the job.

Going sword path with mine also: is it worthy for you to sacrifice some nodes to go 800+ def, or 799 could be enough against all these +20 raid defenses? Could you all share your Uraeus stats at +20? :wink:

he is not a good tank i think, defense to low for this.

only maybe in minion wars.

I would not use him as a tank, and would never have a flank of the same color. With a yellow tank purple flanks would be best followed by any non-yellow

So, if not a tank, then what?

And should I level up Uraeus or Thor first?

You don’t have to use them on defense, and tbh neither is particularly good for defense anyway. As for whether Uraeus or Thor, neither is a bad choice but it depends on what you have in your roster, and who you like more.

I heard Uraeus is going to be a good combo with the new Season 4 hero Elizabeth since any heroes with fiends will also get his sand damage. I luckily got Uraeus, I wasn’t thinking much of him initially but with this new synergy its piqued my interest.

I have Gazelle too so it’s nice that he doesn’t give effects to fellow heroes (and his Elemental link is a minion generator, I haven’t used this link yet but hoping it will work with Gazelle’s effect in play) and his primary is a damage dealer (which will make his damage stronger with Gazelle). I started leveling him now, I will ascend him to 4/80 after the S4 heroes are released (if I’m lucky I’ll level them first) since it’s good to have so minion killers (I just have Grimble). Plus him being a Sorcerer is nice because I have enough emblems to get him to +20

Would Uraeus work alongside Skadi (hero I am chasing for my roster)?
Maybe White Rabbit next to Skadi?
Uraeus on other side w/ another blue 5*.
Perhaps Alasie? F. Sturdy hero.

Tank? Another blue or yellow formidable hero?
Making it a 3-2 color team.
Or some off color tank? 2-2-1 color team.
Could depend on their 5 heros to face off.
Usually on offense at the very least a consideration is those opposing 5 heros. lol

What do you think?
SKADI paired w WHITE RABBIT??

& can Uraeus work w Skadi on opposite side?
Paired w a good partner of course?
I wonder.

I enjoyed your comment! :eyes:

yes uraeus would work well with skadi

It can work .
You need to fire Uraeus before skadi, that’s the only thing to consider. And probably skadi in the same turn or a turn later before the sand damage kill the minions.
Same turn would be ideal, first Uraeus, sand damage for all, than skadi killing the minions and giving some ice damage.
For war I would use them in two separate teams, against minions, they are a little bit of overkill together.

Good day @ferg :wave:

Overkill in wars today? Tomorrow who knows. :wink:
Skadi + Uraeus. :eyes::clap:

Thank you for your feedback!
You have shared good points to apply too!!
Firing Uraeus before Skadi… got it :heart_eyes:

I’m also thinking of which heros to pair them with;
Skadi next to White Rabbit?
Uraeus… hmm. Maybe near Alassie?
Unsure of tank spot since need to see their tank, maybe view their team before deciding, situational.

But. Skadi works better w a Def DOWN hero nearby and White Rabbit is just such a hero.

Any ideas @ferg?

I have no idea if you mean offense or defense?
On offense it’s most of the time completely unimportant who stands next to whom. I would only put skadi and Uraeus on the edges that not both get hit by a hit 3 hero.

On defense I probably wouldn’t use one of them and for sure not 2 blue and 2 yellow heroes.

Agreed somewhat.
It’s in the gaining strategy, that learning curve which is an ongoing process, for me.

I think it does matter significantly which hero(s) is/ are next to either one. Understanding specials.
If you decide any particular heros are better suited w/ either one… lol, I certainly hope you share that here. :heart_eyes: Share the knowledge.
I will attempt the same, reciprocated information sharing. :sun_with_face:

I’ve enjoyed our discussions. Thank you.
:sun_behind_small_cloud:

Any defense down hero would work with Skadi, but C Kiril has the most synergy with her considering they are both blue and both can fire in 9 tiles with the right combination of troops and emblems. You don’t have C Kiril?

Uraeus would work pretty will with either Grimble or Skadi as long as you fire him first. You get the double benefit of the minions being destroyed as well as the DOT. I would say he synergises with Grimble a bit more than with Skadi but still a good fit.

With my Skadi team I focus on her survival until I can get 9 tiles - and then on the team’s survival once that happens. You can go with a more offensive configuration - that is valid too. But you may find that some boards are less recoverable in that case.

It is now confirmed that uraeus can inflict sand damage with Elizabeth’s spiders which I assume they’re called fiends now. Is this like the most OP ■■■■ out there or what?

Agree, I have been saying that, those two are going to do some damage for sure! I tried hard for Uraeus, never got him though. Now even more sad about that with this new combo.

This smells like the beginning of Velluria all over again ugh :face_vomiting:

Though Elizabeth is not HoTM but heavily paywalled, so hopefully it won’t be as pervasive of a problem as GTV was.

Nerf the ‘Uraelizabeth’ combination!
