Locwain Overview

Duel wielding the sacred daggers of Mistwood, this honourable warrior stands to protect the Sylvan empire. Locwain joins the Sylvan Watchers faction during patch 7.00 alongside the Razelvarg Fusion.

Locwain’s abilities are primarily PVP orientated, with the core focus being buff removals, nuking enemies and maximising stats with his passive. His A2 attacks all enemies, and has a 50% chance to remove Veil or Perfect Veil buffs, followed by a 100% chance of removing a random buff from enemies. This can be a great counter to champions protected by a Duchess (As an example), whilst the extra buff removal can assist you to Victory!

With his Focused Force, he attacks 1 enemy 2 times, ignoring Shield buffs and resetting the cooldown of this skill if killing the target enemy. Being able to ignore shield buffs is great, helping you attack through protected targets to optimise skill cooldown chances (not as impactful as ignore defence). Traditionally with nukers, focusing on accuracy stats can be a gear intensive, however Locwain’s passive increases his Acc by 10 for each buff on each enemy! Therefore in go second arena encounters, you have a greater chance to remove buffs from your targets (Granted buffs are active during this attack).

Overall Locwain appears to be a great Buff removing nuker, with a speed aura to utilise in all Arena game modes, and will surely be used in Faction Wars. Guide is subject to change following the full testing’s of this champion.
