HH Gaming’s Favourite Epics in Raid: Shadow Legends!
Today, Hell Hades, Saph, Nub Raids, and YST share their favourite Epic champions in Raid: Shadow Legends. Whether it's for niche utility, boosting team damage, or providing crowd control and support, let's dive into why these champions stand out as their top picks! We'd also love to hear in the comments which Epics you value most!
HELL HADES – GEOMANCER
This dwarven warrior has led Hell Hades and countless players to victory in some of Raid's toughest encounters. Whether it's the Iron Twins, Nether Spider, Demon Lord Clan Boss, or many others, his ability to reduce the damage allies take from enemies under his HP Burn, deflect a portion of that damage, and even the chance to deal bonus damage equal to 3% of the target's MAX HP is incredible. On top of that, he's a powerful Turn Meter manipulator and debuffer, making him a top tier choice for bosses like the Dark Fae and Fire Knight!
YST – CONELLIA
Although the strategy for Bommal 90 was ruined by the changes to Frenzy gear and the Carapace Blessing, the fun and creativity YST experienced while theory-crafting with this champion makes her his all time favourite. She can still solo tough bosses like the Griffin, Scarab King, and Nether Spider with the right Toxic build and stats, and she's also a great option for the Sand Devil's Necropolis. Beyond that, she offers strong crowd control with an AoE Sleep that can turn into Fear when the Sleep is removed, and her A1 proves useful against the Eternal Dragon – all wrapped up in one of the most unique, creepy, and fun Epics in the game!
NUB RAIDS – MISTRIDER
While Nubs may first appreciate this champion for the Irish name, it's the impressive damage output, seamless chaining of Extra Turns, self-buffing, and reliable Decrease DEF that truly make him a favourite. His buffs are perfectly tailored to his kit – Increase ATK amplifies his damage, while Increase ACC ensures his debuffs land more consistently. Watching him chain turns and tear through waves in areas like the Cursed City and Faction Wars is something Nubs always enjoys!
SAPH – WHISPER
It's no surprise who Saph chose as his favourite – he's long been a fan of this Epic nuker. Whisper stands out as one of the most powerful single target damage dealers in Raid, striking fear into bosses like the Phantom Shogun, Hydra and the Dark Fae. When built in Relentless gear, watching her chain turn after turn is a spectacle, especially with her A3 and passive also granting extra turns. With Weaken on her target, Whisper's ability to ignore enemy DEF is powerful, and with her self applied Increase ATK and C.RATE buffs, she's less reliant on allies to place them for her!
