My vote is for Peter. Mana control is one of the crucial skills in the game, and if you have a hero with it, you will not regret maxing them. Imho Hensel is better than Peters, but since you donāt have itā¦
After that, I suggest LJ. He also slows mana gain which may save you in many situations. Just bear in mind that LJ is more useful against monsters and bosses, while Peters is more effective in raids and wars, perhaps the class quests also.
Thatās what I was thinking except that melendor is squish and I cannot afford emblem him.
I have 3 maxed rigards and 2 bts, both with costumes.
I wish to have 2nd melendor and tried his costume in numerous pulls but was not lucky enough to get it.
Since you confirmed 2nd melendore, should I probably keep trying his costume?
Iād do Peters and Little John to 3.60 to figure out which flavor of mana control you prefer. I will suspect Peters would be preferred by most, but I donāt have him.
Jack OāHare is okay, but Iād rate him third - I do have him,. and he is maxed.
I donāt have Gadeirus, but having faced him a lot for the āKill Gaderiusesā challenges, I can say heās good if he fires and the buffs arenāt dispelled, but you should only expect that in PvE, and then not even against bosses that dispel. So heās very situational.
I got Peters when I was a fairly new player and he was in my team for pretty much all functions for the longest time - still is sometimes, especially in wars. Fast mana, hits hard, and the silence can be a life saver. He always sat on left wing; I wouldnāt tank with him unless the alternatives were truly squishy (but I could be missing a trick there). He only recently got a few emblems because Jackal got most of 'em, but even one line is enough to activate the dodge once in a while. Mind you, if you have Lianna, Petersās damage is a lot less exciting.
I have both gadeirus+14 and LJ+1, Caedmon and 2 mels.
Gadeirus is busy very often, he is my most used slow mana hero, LJ is starving.
LJ has a great skill, but he is far too squishy, most of the time he is dead before mana is full. Gadeirus charges most of the time and his special leads often to a 2nd shot.
My advice would be in this order:
Peters
Gadeirus
Mel2 for war depth
Jack oāhare i donāt know, skittles is unleveled in my rosters since looooooong time.
Peters first. He is a fast mana controlling rogue which comes in very handy in both the quests as well as everywhere else youād bring a green 4*. After that Iād go for LJ as he is probably one of the best green heros overall in the very fast 4* tourneys.
Personally Caedmon. I have Peters at 1/1. The reason he stays there is because of how squishy he is and how better it is to use anyone else such as Gretel, Hansel, or Proteus.
While a Silence is nice, I donāt think its enough damage, nor utility to ascend him. Personally I believe Caedmon has a better balanced kit and with 2 of them that makes it good for dispels but also being able to double down on a targeted hero to either finish them or lower them to kill range.
OP has 2 Caedmons already though. Peters does something different, and hits harder. I donāt think of him as all that squishy, especially with a few emblems, though admittedly Caedmon wipes the floor with Peters on durability.
Not a fan of LJ myself, never took mine past 3/60, but thinking I ought to work him up for rush tournaments now I actually play the things.
We often face blue tanks and I need a lot of greens there. My gad is used every war - LJ only half of the time. I prefer stacking another color before using LJ, he simply does not live long enough that I gain a benefit from his special.
LJ is used in tournaments with fast mana, but gad has the same use there.
Gad also has a important place in my green mono Titan Team against blue Titans. (Hansel-Buddy-Mel-gad-Tarlak) pushing the atk of my two greens with highest base atk stat.
