Flesh-Tearer — guide

In short

Flesh Tearer is an Epic Support from the Skinwalkers faction (Magic affinity). His kit is a team heal for 30% of max HP that also extends every ally buff by one turn, plus a gimmick that peels his own debuffs off and hands them to the enemy. Base stats are weak and the verdict is blunt: vault him (fusion), and only build him for Faction Crypts.

Strengths

• The heal skill restores 30% of max HP to the whole team and extends all ally buffs by 1 turn — real value next to shields, regeneration and defensive buffs.
• The AoE shortens every enemy buff and extends their debuffs by 1 turn — annoying against shield and buff-stacking teams.
• A1 has a 40% chance to strip a random debuff off himself and transfer it to the target.
• Aura: +27% Ally Attack in Faction Crypts — his one clearly useful slot.

Weaknesses

• Every damaging skill scales off ATK, but base ATK is 991 — there is no damage.
• 89 base SPD is very slow; without speed gear he barely takes turns.
• The heal is a flat 30% of max HP and does not scale with stats.
• No shields, no control, no revive — a very narrow support.

Where to use

Best scores: Clan Boss (3/5) and Faction Wars (3/5). In CB he works as a budget healer who keeps buffs rolling and can dump his own debuffs onto the boss, plus the Attack aura. In Skinwalkers Faction Crypts the aura and the heal plug a hole in a thin roster.

Weak: Hydra, Chimera, Arena, dungeons, Hard mode, Doom Tower — 2/5 across the board. In Arena and high dungeons he simply gets run over; there is no control.

Stats and gear

Priority: SPD (200+, ideally 230–250 so the heal and buff extension land before the enemy) → HP/DEF (survivability over damage) → ACC (200–250 so the AoE reliably extends debuffs and the A1 transfer actually lands). Skip C.RATE and C.DMG — there is no damage to build for.

Sets from the recommended list: Attack, Lifesteal (self-sustain off the AoE) and Speed as the main pick. Relics listed in the build: Journal of Necrotos and Orb of Transfixion.

Masteries and blessings

The build lists Invigorated and Targetfinder. The logic is simple: invest in survivability, accuracy and support utility, leave the offense trees alone — with 991 ATK they do nothing. Blessings go the same way: durability and support value, never damage.

Tombs

If you do build him: book the heal first — the levels add up to +20% healing (30% to 50%), the biggest gain in his kit. Then push the AoE to level 5 for the −1 cooldown. A1 last — it only adds +10% to the chance.

Verdict

Vault (fusion). Food: outside the Faction Crypts aura and a budget CB heal he brings nothing.
