Overall Hero Rating

How scoring works
5.06 / 10 Rank 71

Steady melee attacks and decent durability help nearby fights, but limited reach restricts wider usefulness.

Guild Raid 4.0 / 10

A useful stopgap in Laviscus teams when preferred attackers are missing, with lower expected performance and limited demonstrated specialist value.

Guild War 4.5 / 10

Defenses featuring Godswyl hold in 29.1% of Meds Up battles across equally weighted battlefields, providing the stronger supported role.

Horde 6.5 / 10

Two independent attacks and solid melee durability provide steady clearing, though limited reach keeps him behind broader area specialists.

Popularity 4.24 / 10

Planner records show 3,410 players at Gold I or higher, 176 at Diamond I or higher and 3 at Adamantine II or higher. Five equally weighted milestones determine this investment-based Popularity score.
