Arena Roles

Arena Roles Breakdown

Understanding Arena Roles

Champions normally form specific roles within an arena team. Our ratings define the roles that the champion fits and rates them on their ability to perform the roles. Below you can see a breakdown of all of our roles.

Cleanser

Champions with the Cleanser role will use their skills to remove debuffs and keep them from being re-applied.

Crowd Control

Champions with the Crowd Control role will use their skills to place soft (i.e. Provoke or Taunt) and hard (i.e Freeze or Stun) debuffs to disable enemy champions.

Damage

Champions with the Damage role will have skills that deal significant damage and are designed to defeat enemy champions.

Damage Absorption

Champions with the Damage Absorption role will have skills or effects that reduce the incoming damage your team takes. This can be through passive damage reduction or by applying skills such as Strengthen or Shields.

Healer

Champions with the Healer role will have skills that restore your champion's Health including Continuous Heals.

Debuffer

Champions with the Debuffer role will have skills that place debuffs that don't fall into Crowd Control or Skill Manipulator roles i.e. Decrease Defence. These champions may also have skills that remove Buffs.

Revive

Champions with the Revive role will have skills that bring your ally champions back from the dead including Revive on Death buffs.

Skill Manipulator

Champions with the Skill Manipulator role will have skills that increase enemy skill cooldowns or reduce your ally skill cooldowns.

Speed Manipulator

Champions with the Speed Manipulator role will have skills that affect the turn meter of your allies or enemies. This includes speed buffs and debuffs aswell as direct turn meter effects.

Kael Overview

Kael once a petty thief roamed the realm of Teleria taking whatever he could using his Elven magic to fight off angry foes. Arbiter found Kael and offered him a chance to set right the wrongs he had done and ultimately take up the fight against the evil Undead rising in their midst. Arbiter taught Kael of friendship and the need for Allies, that is when he became one of and potentially the strongest of the unlikely foursome alongside Galek, Elhain and Athel.
Kael is easily the best starter champion in Raid: Shadow Legends. Kael can be built to play in any area of the game with a high damage Attack all Enemies (AOE) ability on his A2 and poison abilities on his A1 and A3. These skills make him extremely valuable in Dragon, Clan Boss and Arena. Like all the starter champions you only need to build him with 85% Crit Rate to ensure a Critical hit on his A2.
If building for Clan Boss you would need to focus his build on high Defensive stats, the ‘correct’ level of accuracy and speed. More information can be found in the Clan Boss guide section.

Overall Kael is a fantastic Rare capable of competing with Legendaries for a spot in end game teams. Easily the best starter champion and one worth taking to level 60!
