Longbeard

Last Updated: June 4, 2025

Longbeard Overview

Longbeard is an Ally Attack enabler who excels in Arena blender teams and Clan Boss setups, with lasting value across PvE content thanks to full team ally attacks and Weaken support.

Longbeard is a Magic affinity Legendary from the Skinwalkers faction and, in the early days of Raid: Shadow Legends, his full team Ally Attack was one of the rarest and most powerful abilities in the game – a value it can still hold to this day.

During an Ally Attack, all participating champions always use their A1, making Longbeard especially strong in the Arena when paired with champions who have AoE A1 abilities, enabling classic “blender” compositions. He also brings valuable utility through Weaken, making him relevant in Clan Boss teams, particularly when paired with an ally who can apply Decrease DEF, and the burst damage through ally attacks.

Beyond Arena and Clan Boss, Longbeard remains useful across a wide range of PvE content where Ally Attack is impactful. This includes strategies such as enabling Gnishak for Bommal one shot setups, helping deplete the Fire Knight’s shield more efficiently, or simply accelerating boss fights through enabling more damage.
