Overall Hero Rating

How scoring works
6.03 / 10 Rank 36

Persistent melee pressure and resurrection make him a valuable Chaos fighter in demanding battles.

Guild Raid 3.0 / 10

An off-meta melee substitute with reported success, but limited independent confirmation and no established prime specialty keep his value modest.

Guild War 9.5 / 10

Defenses featuring Lucius hold in 41.0% of Meds Up battles across equally weighted battlefields, with an established defensive Meta bonus.

Horde 8.0 / 10

Resurrection and sustained melee pressure support Chaos frontlines, though eliminating his killer and managing recovery downtime remain important constraints.

Popularity 3.62 / 10

Planner records show 3,306 players at Gold I or higher, 977 at Diamond I or higher and 10 at Adamantine II or higher. Five equally weighted milestones determine this investment-based Popularity score.
