Vergumkaar — guide

In short

Vergumkaar is a Legendary Support from the Lizardmen with a +55 Resistance aura in all battles. His home turf is Faction Wars and the Scarab King in Doom Tower: he cleanses debuffs, hands out shields and DEF Up, and strips enemy buffs. Build him for survivability, Speed and Accuracy — with 914 base ATK, damage is not his job.

Strengths

• Venerable Ancestor: removes Provoke and one random debuff from the team, then places a 60% DEF Up for 2 turns on cleansed allies plus a Shield worth 20% of his MAX HP on everyone — a strong safety button.
• Trample: AoE buff strip (one guaranteed, two on a 75% chance) and, depending on what was stripped, 100% Heal Reduction for 3 turns or 60% DEF Down for 2 turns.
• Stoic passive: immune to Provoke, and fills 20% Turn Meter every time an enemy tries to apply Provoke.
• +55 Resistance aura in all battles — a boost for the whole team.
• Excellent in Faction Wars (4.5/5), covering the Lizardmen's cleanse and support needs.

Weaknesses

• Hits like a wet noodle: ATK-scaling damage on 914 base Attack.
• No healing and no real AoE control — the stun is single-target on his A1 and only on a chance.
• Low marks in Dungeons (3.0) and Hard content (2.0) — he simply has nothing to offer there.
• The site author's call: a weak legendary, vault material.

Where to use

Faction Wars (4.5) first — that is where he earns his slot. Then Doom Tower (4.0), Scarab King especially, where shields and cleansing fit perfectly. Clan Boss, Hydra and Chimera sit at 4.0: he is picked for Provoke immunity and buff/debuff work, but he is not a top pick. Arena is 3.5 — situational against provoke and buff teams. Dungeons (3.0) and Hard modes (2.0) are best skipped.

Stats and gear

Priority: Speed → HP%/DEF% → Accuracy → Resistance. Rough targets: SPD 200–250 (closer to 250+ for PvP), HP 60–80k+, DEF 2.5–3k, ACC 250–300 for Doom Tower and Hydra, RES 200+ on top of the aura's +55. Ignore Crit Rate and Crit Damage. Sets: Speed or Perception as the base, with Immortal, Shield or Resistance on top for bulk. The site build's relic pick is Blades of Akumori.

Masteries and blessings

Base trees are Support and Defense, with Accuracy and Speed picks as needed. From the site list: Lifedrain, Power Reset, Gathering Momentum, Parting Gift, Puppetmaster, Impede Them, Caught Unaware. No blessing is listed in the build — as a support, take a defensive or utility one (survivability, debuff removal) rather than anything damage-oriented.

Tomes

If you book him at all, start with Trample: it has two cooldown steps (−1 at levels 5 and 6), which directly raises the uptime of Heal Reduction and DEF Down. Then Venerable Ancestor (−1 cooldown at level 5 for the shield and cleanse). Leave the A1 for last — only damage and stun chance there.

Verdict

A narrow but tidy support: Faction Wars and Scarab King are his turf, and the author is right about the rest. Vault him and don't rush tomes.
