Roles

Roles are groups that describe a hero's purpose in battle.

  • Some heroes have hybrid roles, and thus appear under a second role as a secondary.

Heroes that bring healing, buffs, and debuffs to support the team.

  • Not every hero is a 'healer', but that does not reduce their value to the team.
  • Griselma is more of a ranged dps as she is very damage oriented and mostly just heals/buffs her own summons.
