Guide: Tetsuya the Deliverer

In short

Tetsuya the Deliverer is a legendary Attack champion from the Shadowkin faction who manipulates turn meter and deals massive damage. With ignore defense, turn meter steal, and faction synergy, he dominates Arena and Clan Boss. Build him for speed and critical hits first.

Strengths

  • Powerful turn meter control: steals from enemies and fills allies' bars.
  • A2 ignores defense based on the target's turn meter — shreds even the tankiest foes.
  • Shadowkin synergy grants immunity to turn meter reduction, amplifies effects, and adds bonus damage.
  • Passive fills his own turn meter every time an enemy takes a turn, ensuring frequent attacks.
  • +19% Speed aura in all battles is a massive team boost.

Weaknesses

  • Needs Shadowkin allies to unlock his full potential.
  • As a pure attacker, he's vulnerable to crowd control and burst damage without protection.
  • Slightly less effective in Doom Tower and Hard dungeons due to wave mechanics.

Where to use

Best in Arena (Classic, Tag, Live, Astranyx) and Clan Boss, Hydra, Chimera — all rated 5.0. Excellent in dungeons and Faction Wars. In Doom Tower (3.5) and Hard modes (4.0) he's a bit weaker but still useful.

Stats and gear

Stat priority: Speed (250+), Crit Rate (100%), Crit Damage (250%+), Attack (5000+), Accuracy (350+ to land True Fear). Sets: Savage or Lethal for ignore defense, Stoneskin for Arena survivability, Merciless for extra turns.

Masteries and blessings

Trees: Offense and Support. Key masteries: In For The Kill (extra turn on kill), Pierce Defenses, Foekiller, Parting Gift. Blessings: Crushing Rend (damage), Heavencast (damage), Polymorph (Arena control).

Tomes

Book A2 and A3 first for cooldown reduction — this gives more control and damage. A1 can wait, as the active skills provide the main power spike.

Verdict

Tetsuya the Deliverer is one of the strongest legendary damage dealers in the game, capable of single-handedly swinging battles. If you have Shadowkin allies, he becomes a must-have for any content.
