What emblem path would be best for Zeline - attack or shield? When I search the forums, folks seem uncertain the best path that will best support her strengths. I tend to use her a lot in raids, tournaments, wars and events. For now, I don’t see her being used on my main defense, but that could change in the future. Do folks who have her emblemed have any suggestions? A screenshot would be create! Thx!
I just began to emblem her and I use the shield path because I want to increase her survivability…she doesn’t hit hard anyways so it doesn’t make sense to me give her more attack…
So you don’t think going the attack path would benefit her extra damage special? I agree that the shield path would help her defense stats and help her survive longer. I just wonder the impact of the attack path to the 15% extra damage?
I am going attack path for titans and my attack team. While her special doesn’t hit hard she gets good attack 840ish at the end
My thoughts were along the same line. I use her a lot for Titans, wars, tournaments, raids, etc. She is one of my heros I use against Blue-heavy hero teams. The attack path seems to be the better route (at least for now since I don’t see using her on my main defense). I also split my wizard emblems with JF who I use in a similar fashion to Zeline.
I use defense path.
I don’t want to raise her attack because i don’t want her easily die by riposte.
Interesting. That’s seems to be the question - go shield path to help her survivability or attack to nor’easter damage special? I understand the defense route. I have seen the issue when using her. Shield may make more sense. I might flip a coin! 
Wish the best path for u Jaws1! I have her with attacks path, pairing with Evelyn, she not easy to die. But idk the best for her so can’t give u the insight.
So far Im pretty statisfy with her in offense and Titan, I use 2 Eve, 1 Zeline, 1 C Rigard , 1 Kingston to face teluria Vella with a good win rate.
TBH, I want to go the attack path, but the shield may be the safe route. I haven’t been playing as long as others have, so I’m still developing my style of play. I’m leaning more attack lately as I have leveled more attack-oriented heros like a Magni, Clarissa and Captain Kestrel. That may change as I finish leveling Raffaele, Brynhild and customer Vivica. Who knows.

Zeline imo is a support hero with the dispel being her most important function. Increasing her attack will be minimal damage increase, as opposed to increasing her survivability to be able to dispel would be more important to me.

Ok. Shield path it is. Thanks everyone for your feedback. Much appreciated!

I don’t think there is a right or wrong answer here. I personally would do attack path, despite the fact that Zeline has a pretty low defense stat, especially since she won’t be on defense team. I think if you are able to fire her, her attack-down onto the enemy already increases your team’s survivability. Wizards benefit from higher attack since Jinx is percentage based, and Zeline has a chance to trigger her class ability on every single opponent since she hits all (especially since it’s commonplace now for enemies to have buffs like elemental link).

I am going with the balanced route with my Zeline, I want her attack to be reasonably high but also for her to have good survivability. The answer to your question mainly depends on where you use her and if you think she dies too quick. If she is not going to be on your defence team I would favour attack more over shield. Also, she is a wizard, so even though her SS damage is low if her talent kicks in she can hit pretty hard.

You missed one attack node and the 20th node also is attack, so she can go even higher than 854 attack. Very impressive!
