Alaric the Hooded

Last Updated: June 4, 2025

Alaric the Hooded Overview

Alaric is a Banner Lords Epic with average Arena damage and useful wave control, bringing AoE Decrease ATK and Decrease ACC that make him most effective in Doom Tower and Faction Wars, though his low survivability limits his use in longer fights.

Alaric the Hooded is a dual-wielding swordsman that must find it very hard to breathe under that mask! Alaric was added as part of the fusion for Pyxniel in December 2020. Some people may have gone against fusing Pyxniel so you may have a copy of Alaric kicking around. Alaric has strong multipliers on his skills taking him to a mid-tier nuker for Arena. His best team utility ability is his A3 decreasing attack and accuracy of all opponents. This is particularly strong for Doom Tower waves or Faction Wars waves. Be careful to protect Alaric as his base defence is low and it will make it difficult to keep him alive over any sustained fights.
