Possible off-healer, full-on stress-healer and a decent stunner. His battle-ballad is also super-good for endless.Ĭrusader - decent projection/mobility in a pinch. A Jester and Fla together is crazy-good stress-sustain and compliment eachothers bleeds, for example, even if neither have the best impact damage. His bleeds are relatively decent as well. Required, no - but unless you are going to use full-on cheesy strategies, you're going to need decent stress-healing - and he's still the absolute best at it. Jester is very good for stress relief but I don't think he is required like Vestel Despite that, CRU is a solid choice outside of being obnoxiously slow. Just like your concern about bleedables, his best damage is against Unholy (of which there are plenty), but again, you can't bank on what the mode will throw at you. He's pretty much the best alternative to the Jester for pure stress healing (in competition with the Fla). Also suffers tremendously if shuffled - has great move-res but the possibility is still much higher (and sometimes unavoidable if you start encountering fights like the Shambler, or even Crocs who start pulling people forward and pushing Leper backwards.Ĭrusader is a great utility hero who has mobility on-demand for the wealth of situations where shuffle will be a problem.

Farmstead is one of the few places where a Leper can actually do solid work, though it's a shame he won't get as much use out of Revenge like he used to. You also have no choice regarding swaps - a sizable chunk of heroes have their own problems in X or Y region.Ĭrusader and Lepers defensive buff if I remember right no longer lasts the entire fight which sucksĭoesn't really matter. His impact damage can be improved, and goes up naturally when injured (which, in endless, he often will be).

He's also a fantastic stress-healer and a decent off-healer, though that is limited with the per-battle changes. Ruins are still choc full of bleedable enemies - farmstead version being no exception. It doesn't apply much anymore, less so when discussing versatile heroes like the Fla. That mentality only applied back in the pre-expansion era. I never have and never will understand why people still think this way. If you're looking to go all in and see how far you can literally push it, your options get thinner.įlagellants is good except carries the risk of being utterly useless if transported into the ruins The question you have to ask is - how far do you intend to go? If, like me, you set out to grab the 300 achievement and stop there, then there's various comps that will do perfectly fine.
