Attack1013 Guide: Ashnar Dragonsoul
In short
Ashnar Dragonsoul is a Mythical HP champion with a unique passive that makes ally burns heal and buffs team damage. With control, burn activation, and turn meter manipulation, he excels in Hydra, Arena (especially Live), and Faction Wars. A high-priority champion to build.
Strengths
- Unique Passive: ally HP burns heal them, and each burn increases ally damage by 3%—build around burns.
- Turn Meter Fill: Wreathed in Flames gives team +30% turn meter, Pyroclast Storm adds +5% per enemy burn, enabling faster cycles.
- RES Reduction: Pyroclast Storm can drop enemy RES by up to -100, helping your debuffers land.
- Built-in Tankiness: stacks up to +25% MAX HP and DEF passively across both forms.
- Extra Turn on Metamorph: frequent skill cycling to reapply burns and activate them.
Weaknesses
- Burn Dependent: effectiveness drops without active burns; vulnerable to debuff removal.
- Low Base Speed: 105 base demands high speed investment (250+).
- Long Cooldowns: A3 (5 turns) can be slow without cooldown reduction or extra turns.
Where to use
Top-tier in Hydra (5.0), Arena (5.0—especially Live and Tag), Faction Wars (5.0). Great for Clan Boss (4.5). Decent for Spiders (Spider's Den, Sorath) and Chimera (4.5), but lower in dungeons and Doom Tower (4.0) due to slower skill cycling.
Stats and gear
Priority: Speed (250+), Accuracy (350+ for high-end), 100% C.Rate, C.Dmg, then HP/DEF. Attack not needed. Sets: Merciless, Relentless, Reflex, Perception for ACC, Stoneskin for Arena, Bolster for Hydra.
Masteries and blessings
Offense tree: Pierce Defenses, Boss Slayer. Support: Invigorated, Gathering Momentum. Blessings: Incinerate for burn damage, Crushing rend for AoE, Polymorph for Arena survival, Nature wrath for burn synergy. Relics: Irethi Coronet, The Cat's Gaze, Wand of Submission.
Tomes
Prioritize booking Wreathed in Flames (A2) to reduce cooldown to2 turns, then Pyroclast Storm (A3) to3 turns, then A1. Metamorph doesn't need books. This ensures frequent burn placement and activation.
Verdict
Ashnar Dragonsoul is a powerhouse for burn-centric teams. If your Hydra or Arena defense use burns, he's a must-have champion that turns allies into healing tanks while boosting damage significantly.
