Kerin the Harvester Overview

Deep within the sewers of Arnoc dwells the bee whisperer, who once cut a branch from a sacred tree to craft his staff – unaware it housed a hidden hive within. The honey stored at its core attracted some of the deadliest bees in Teleria, who now serve whoever they deem worthy to protect their hive. In an instant, Kerin can unleash them upon his enemies, their stingers laced with a potent toxin that puts foes to sleep. Kerin the Harvester is a Support Legendary from the Lizardmen faction.

Kerin’s skill set focuses on crowd control, manipulating enemy cooldowns, Turn Meter, and Speed. Opening with Sleepstingers [A3], this AoE attack places a Sleep debuff on all enemies, can bypass Block Debuffs, and grants him an extra turn. Whether you’re tackling PvE waves, putting the Sand Devil to sleep, or controlling Arena threats like Siphi who apply Block Debuffs, this is a valuable skill when Sleep is needed. The active part of Kerin’s passive instantly triggers his A2 on any enemy whose Sleep expires without taking damage – creating a chain of cooldown and Turn Meter control.

The A2 not only puts a single target’s skills on full cooldown but also decreases the Turn Meter of all enemies – by 15% if they’re under Sleep, or 30% if they’re not. Since it targets only one enemy, it avoids waking others from Sleep, while still pushing back their Turn Meter to help you outpace them. While this pairs well with his A3 for controlling enemy waves, it can also be used effectively against bosses like the Dark Fae and Fire Knight – especially with an A1 that steals Turn Meter and places Decrease Speed on all enemies.

Additionally, Kerin can passively decrease the value of enemy Turn Meter fill effects by 25%, adding even more speed control. Overall, he’s a niche crowd control champion but can truly shine in areas like Siege, Arena, faction limited content, and bosses such as the Eternal Dragon – Anywhere crowd control, speed manipulation, or skill cooldown control are key.
