Can contribute to budget raid teams and benefit from adds against Cawl, but stronger alternatives limit his wider raid value.

Guild War 5.0 / 10

Teams featuring Haarken clear 65.5% of Meds Up attacks across equally weighted battlefields, providing the stronger supported role.

Horde 5.0 / 10

Kill stacking and mobility help finish escalating waves, though concentrated attacks and limited recovery keep Haarken below broader clearing engines.
