Rahu Animus Overview

Rahu is an SSR Hollow champion who offers a rare mix of defensive scaling, debuff transfer, and strategic support. As the Wily Revenant of the Faltering District, Rahu leverages his unique [Wrath] mechanic to assist allies, transfer negative effects to enemies, and trigger follow-up attacks, all while building his own survivability.

His standout skill, Flame Authority, scales off his DEF and applies team-wide defensive buffs, making him an anchor in compositions that rely on durability and counterplay. The synergy between his [Wrath] stacks and ally actions gives him a reactive playstyle that rewards thoughtful timing and setup, especially in longer encounters or PvP battles.

Rahu is ideal for players who enjoy tactical depth and layered defense mechanics.
