Plarium’s thoughts on Gnishak Verminlord

We’ve prepared something special for the end of the year. A Champion that will really come in handy in PvE content. Gnishak Verminlord has a unique ability to double the damage of his Bomb debuffs, replace Bomb debuffs with protected Poison debuffs, and other really helpful things in his kit that make him the real Rat King :rat: So let’s take a closer look at it.

With the A1, he randomly attacks 3 times and has a chance to place a Bomb debuff for 2 turns. He doubles the damage of Bomb debuffs placed by this skill on enemies whose MAX HP is equal to or higher than 200K.

Gnishak’s A2 is an AoE attack. He also has a chance of placing a Decrease ATK debuff. And a chance of decreasing the detonation countdown of all Bomb debuffs by 1 turn while also increasing the duration of all Poison debuffs by 1 turn.

Using the A3, which is also an AoE attack, Gnishak has a chance to place 2 Bomb debuffs in each target for 2 turns, then grants himself an Extra Turn. Similar to his A1, this skill allows Gnishak to double the damage of Bomb debuffs placed by this particular skill on enemies whose MAX HP is equal to or higher than 200K.
With the help of his Passive skill, every time a Bomb debuff placed by Gnishak Verminlord detonates or is removed, he places 2 Poison debuffs for 2 turns. These debuffs are protected.

Moreover, he Increases Ally ATK in all Battles with his Aura.

If the bombs smack he could be an amazing progression champ. Prob a skip for me tho, as I have Samar for Bommal if he’s good there.

Will his bombs turning into poisons trigger Bommal’s passive to add bombs on him

Sorry if this is sarcasm and I missed it. The Rat King is the antagonist in the Nutcracker Ballet. I’m pretty sure the epic for the fusion is a Nutcracker. This is very on par for Christmas.

you are literally on one of the only websites that lists all of the bosses hp numbers in raid and you can’t figure out how to know a bosses hp???

Another time-consuming crap, not to be done unless you have 55-100K? energy and a lot of time – I don’t participate in these events – sometimes I collect a rare or epic character if they are worth it.

If you use RSL Helper, you don’t need to spend much of your personal time on these at all. It’s also easy to save energy/gems for energy between fusion events, unless you’re only just starting out.

RSL Helper is another time-consuming soft, but this time it’s not crap, but a very good tool – unfortunately, it’s not an element of the game, but an open source tool, which means that after every or almost every update of the game, the RSL helper doesn’t work and you have to manually update it as it’s new, of course update – hahaha

It maybe takes 15k energy, which you earn the most of passively from playing. And usually the champs are GREAT! The real hard thing is saving shards if you can’t yet do UNM. It’s fine to skip fusions, but I’d suggest at least saving up shards for if someone like Helicath or Brogni comes around.

Extremely worth it if you can’t solo Dragon 25. Or do Bommal 90 Hard. Or Skinwalkers 21. Amazing fusion for progression.

He looks fun, regardless of whether or not he is super OP. People have to remember it’s a game, and the point is to enjoy it!

I struggle to decide if I should skip or go for him. While a solid champ I already have both Samar and Geo for Bommal, and Bad-El for soloing dungeons.
