Average titan performance – strong only in one role or only against one composition, skill rolls inconsistent Astaroth Ragnar Paladin Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportBDAC. Guaranteed Tier I fire resistance, Tier III health, Tier III armor. Two guaranteed Tier I dual resistances. One always includes poison + another element, and the other includes physical + another element.
Feb 12, 2017 In this video I take a look at the current BEST relics to use on your titans. We also take a look at Yuki's amazing resoure in the game, can be found at: htt.
This is possibly their most ambitious paladin yet. You can potentially get 44-60% resistance on 5 different elements while getting important armor and health buffs, all from skills alone. We’ll see if it translates to results in this meta. Astaroth does not buff any troops, hence his D rating in troop composition. Astaroth gets an improvement to his power level rating due to the sheer effectiveness of his buffs.
Astaroth has 25% base armor, compared to the typical 40% base armor classic paladins have.Patch 1.26 Astaroth was rated Tier C for the reasons below. Astaroth suffers from a base armor of 25%, making him slightly weaker than other classic paladins, which have a base armor of 40%. Completely identical to Matarus (below), with the exception of a lightning-based dual resistance skill rather than a poison-based dual resistance skill. Delphira only provides a single Aura X buff to Imperials, thus getting a C- in troop composition.Etalus Elithen Ranger Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB+CCS. Etalus is a classic ranger who provides buffs to Imperials. Rangers in Dawn of Titans are the best attackers in the game.
However, when it comes to defense, classic rangers (with Tier I, II and III offensive skills and Tier I and Tier II defensive skills), usually make average-to-subpar defenders relative to the Tier A compositions.Grulgar Ragnar Berserker Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportBB-AA-. Tier II Goliath defensive buff, as well as guaranteed Aura X Goliath health and armor buffs. Two Aura X buffs for Militia – either +360% damage, +176% armor piercing, +234% health or 176% armor. Grulgar has decent skill consistency with his guaranteed defensive Aura X skills for his Goliath.
Unfortunately, Goliaths are not strong enough by themselves to carry an army, and do not synergize well with Militias. The strongest Aura X buffs for Militias are the defensive buffs, but even in this best case, Grulgar’s composition will have no heavy damage dealers.
In the worst case, your Militias will be glass cannons that struggle to get close to enemies due to how squishy they are. Grulgar‘s power level rating is B due to the strength of his buffs, but gets a B- in troop composition. He also offers relic support mostly for Goliaths.Jaldarg Ragnar Ranger Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB+CCA. Jaldarg is a classic ranger who provides buffs to Goliaths. See the notes on Etalus for the rationale behind the classic ranger’s Tier B rating.“Champdarg” Variant Notes:.
Champdarg, or the Champion-skills Jaldarg variant, with his Tier I, II and III titan defensive skills and Tier I and II offensive skills, does his job as a ranger very well. He dishes out more damage than any other ranger and can take a few hits (depending on his skill roll of course). That being said, Champdarg is best used only on offense as a garrison-cracker for low earth-resistance bases, given that earth resistance is not a priority in the 1.28 meta. He is susceptible to poor skill rolls. (Pity the poor soul who lands Tier I and Tier II armor piercing.).
Champdarg is a staunchly Tier B titan, but a fun one to play.Kamathi Mossmane Berserker Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB+B-B-S. Kamathi is a classic berserker who provides five offensive buffs to Panthers – 2 Tier I, 2 Tier II and 1 Tier III buff. With the right buffs, those Panthers will deal tons of damage, but will be glass cannons easily countered by Storm Maidens, hence the B gradeKorthan Human Paladin Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportBD+AC. Korthan‘s problem is the same as Freya’s. Krampus is the first “Titan Aura X” champion, but the implementation of his Aura X skill leaves something to be desired.
Defensively, other than the small 30% boost to health from his first skill, Krampus only has one other guaranteed defensive skill. Champions are already short-handed when it comes to having enough defensive buffs, and Krampus, even in his best case scenario, only brings to the table a single 72% resistance skill, and either +147% health or +30% health and +88% armor, neither of which gives him a hope of surviving against an army of well-buffed Aura X troops when defending. Offensively, a skilled player can make use of Krampus‘ Freeze spells to delay the enemy army (though even 3 extra Freeze spells are not enough to save Krampus from many compositions). A Krampus with an Aura X titan damage buff (+180% damage) can put out an infiltrator’s level of damage while sporting a bit of the champion’s tankiness, but survivability remains a troublesome issue. Krampus is therefore considered a low Tier B titan.Lu Bu Human Champion Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportBDA-B.
Lu Bu is a decent champion, as far as classic champions go. He offers a unique first skill that provides him with 40% health and armor, as well as 3 lightning spells. He gets one Tier II defensive skill, one Tier II offensive skill, one Tier III defensive skill and one Aura X skill. Pros. With three, possibly four, defensive skills, Lu Bu can turn out to be a lot tankier than a regular champion, at least in terms of health and armor. However, he has access to only one elemental resistance skill, making him more of a niche choice against certain compositions.
Cons. The Tier II defensive skill can be low-rolled to result in health, armor or resist vs. Titan, which is painfully redundant given how much health and armor he already has in his skill set (first skill, Tier III, Aura X). The Aura X can be low-rolled to grant armor piercing.
If Lu Bu does not roll Aura X damage, he will do far less damage than a classic champion otherwise would. No lightning-damage equivalent to the titan-buffing Avalanche, Giant Axe, Great Plague, Mountain Fist or Volcano Vane exists.Matarus Elithen Paladin Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB-C-B-B. Matarus suffers from a base armor of 25%, making him slightly weaker than classic paladins, which have a base armor of 40%. Matarus has an advantage over the standard paladin (ranked at Tier C) due to the dual-resistance ability offered as the 2nd skill.
In this case, being able to roll poison + another elemental resistance in a single skill makes Matarus have slightly more consistent skills than other paladins. Even with this consideration, Matarus‘ single Imperial X skill is not enough to make him a viable troop-buffing titan, and his other skills still require a great deal of luck to roll four different elements. In terms of unit composition though, Spearmen and Panthers do not go well together.
Both units suffer from crowding effects: only one or two Spearmen camps, or two or three Panthers can deal damage at a time – the rest just stand around waiting their turn. The health and armor boosts are fine against unbuffed troops, but will never stand up to end-game defense or castle raiding. 150% bonus health and 102% armor don’t do much when buffed troops can get 100%+ armor piercing and 100-200% damage buffs.Skolnar Ragnar Guardian Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB+CCA. Spectrum Elemental Resists: Hard to get a good spread of resistances, and requires a lot of relic support. This composition can still get kited due to Goliath’s slow movement speed – something that does not affect Mitano‘s panthers.Sulzar Unak Ranger Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB+CCS.
Sulzar is a classic ranger who provides buffs to Grenadiers. See the notes on Etalus for the rationale behind the classic ranger’s Tier B rating.Tansa Mossmane Paladin Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB-CB-B. Tansa suffers from a base armor of 25%, making her slightly weaker than classic paladins, which have a base armor of 40%. Tansa‘s first skill is also a Panther Aura X rather than an Imperial Aura X.Thor Human Champion (Norse God) Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportBDB-BVixia Elithen Ranger Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportB+CCS. Vixia is a classic ranger who provides buffs to Imperials. She is identical to Etalus. See the notes on Etalus for the rationale behind the classic ranger’s Tier B rating.Urakor Unak Champion Power LevelTroop CompositionSkill ConsistencyRelic SupportA-C+CB.
To me it seems like Uranus will be a great offensive titan with his strong archers, could probably beat just about anyone. But i think defense is going to be a problem, as i don't think you can make the militia that strong no matter what relics you use.
Try it out on dotdatabase. I couldn't get the militia anywhere near half as good as say Minotaur's spearmen.
I think a good offensive titan will tear through the militia quick, and troops will get dropped on the archers so easy win there.
