Quintus the Triumphant

As the battle wanes and many Arena foes are vanquished, Quintus stands Triumphant, leading the charge for the Banner Lords. He is an exclusive champion and can only be earned from the Live Arena (unlocked at Level 50).

If you need a champion to smack enemies around, look no further than Quintus. His A3 will provide him all the buffs he needs to deal maximum damage whilst bringing an AoE ability. If he should kill an enemy he’ll reset his other active ability, Strip Away. This ability instead of buffing Quintus, removes all the buffs on a single target then places a Decrease Defence debuff. Both effects also require no accuracy which is perfect because it allows you to build Quintus without accuracy and full damage. His A2 also brings a passive effect similar to Karato, where enemy champion passives and masteries such as Pythion’s damage reduction will be ignored. If his Strip Away kills an enemy then he resets his AoE A3 ability. Should his damage numbers be sufficient, its likely you’ll be using his active abilities much more than other champions as he will constantly be resetting them.

His A1 is a triple hit chance based on conditions which reads like it could be the hardest hitting A1 ability in the game. We’ll need to see his multipliers to confirm. Finally what make Quintus extra special is the passive, Percussion, where he will convert enemy buffs into an additional damaging hit that will ignore all defence and be based on the Target’s Max HP whenever he uses a skill. In PvE it should be noted that most late to end game encounters will cap this at 10% (therefore 1 buff) and it is unclear if it will always do 10% max hp or if a buff must be present. For Arena, in a buff meta this makes him very dangerous with a chance to deal upwards of 50-60% for 5-6 buffs on a target in addition to his on hit potential. As it is Pure Damage it will deal a huge chunk of damage.

Quintus will be a champion you will 100% want to acquire as he can be a Boss Killer, a Nuker in the Arena or a strong wave based damage dealer to push you through content or defeat the toughest opponents in the arena.
