Odachi — guide

In short

Odachi is a Rare Defense champion from the Banner Lords with Force affinity. His job is keeping Block Debuffs and a team Defense buff up while putting Provoke on a single target — which makes him a Faction Wars pick and an early Clan Boss support. Build priority is Speed and Accuracy first, then Defense and HP.

Strengths

• His A3 is unusual utility for a Rare: Block Debuffs on the whole team for 1 turn plus +30% Defense for 2 turns.
• A1 Provoke, up to 35% chance, locks a boss or an add onto him — real value in Clan Boss and Faction Wars.
• A2 hits all enemies and puts a Shield worth 20% of his max HP on himself for 2 turns — wave control and survival.
• Both his damage and his Shield scale off Defense, so a tanky build still hits and stays alive.
• The +25% Defense aura in Dungeons covers the whole team, Faction Wars clears included.

Weaknesses

• Low base stats — he is never a damage threat, purely support.
• Provoke starts at 20% and needs Accuracy; unbooked and resisted it is a wasted turn.
• No heal, no revive, no cleanse — prevention only.
• Weak content per ratings: Chimera (1.0), Doom Tower (1.5), Dungeons (2.0).

Where to use

Faction Wars (3.0) is home: his aura, Block Debuffs and Defense buff carry a rare-only roster. In Clan Boss (3.0) he plays as a Provoke and Defense support. Arena (2.5) is niche, only against slow teams. Hydra (2.5) is a stretch for the earliest stages, and Doom Tower (1.5) and Chimera (1.0) are better skipped.

Stats and gear

The build list names no artifact sets, so follow general practice: Speed, Perception, Resilience or Immortal for survival. Targets: Speed 170–200 (match your Clan Boss turn order), Accuracy 150–200 for Provoke in dungeons and 200+ for Clan Boss, Defense 2500–3000+, HP 40,000+. Ignore Crit Rate and Crit Damage — his damage comes from Defense.

Masteries and blessings

Trees: Defense and Support. Key picks from the list are Invigorated, Strengthening Will and Puppetmaster. Relics: Mask of Rage and Gilded Dragonstone. No blessing is listed — if you have the slot, take a defensive, survival-oriented one.

Tombs

If you use him for Provoke (Clan Boss, bosses), book A1 up to 35% first, otherwise the Provoke fires roughly one turn in three. If team uptime matters more, book the A3: two levels cut its cooldown from 5 to 3.

Verdict

A solid Rare support worth leveling for Faction Wars and early Clan Boss — nothing more, so don't expect miracles.
