Overall Hero Rating

How scoring works
5.41 / 10 Rank 58

A sturdy answer to clustered enemies, provided healers and favourable positioning support his short reach.

Guild Raid 3.0 / 10

An early multi-hit substitute with historical Winged Prime utility, but stronger raid options and limited current evidence keep his value modest.

Guild War 5.0 / 10

Defenses featuring Burchard hold in 30.0% of Meds Up battles across equally weighted battlefields, providing the stronger supported role.

Horde 7.5 / 10

Durable, recurring splash attacks clear clustered waves beside healers, while short reach, distant spawns and armoured enemies constrain output.

Popularity 5.16 / 10

Planner records show 5,221 players at Gold I or higher, 886 at Diamond I or higher and 3 at Adamantine II or higher. Five equally weighted milestones determine this investment-based Popularity score.
