When it comes to the lightning heroes in Dragonheir: Silent Gods, most people aren’t sure what make them stand out as DPS or anything else. But we can assure you that lightning heroes can be amazing and strong. We’re going to talk about the best ones and how to make them shine on the field.
Best Lightning DPS Heroes
We’re going to list out the best Lightning DPS heroes, but not without missing out on enablers and support heroes in the lineup. Sometimes, these enablers are the reason why these heroes turn into a beast on the field. We’re also going to weigh in both f2p, easy-to-get heroes and Legendary heroes.
That said, most of the list will be dominated by Dauntless, who are often the best ones for DPS. They also mostly have moves that are considered basic attacks.
- Altair (Dauntless, Rare)
- Yagnatz (Dauntless, Rare)
- Nimbus (Dauntless, Epic)
- Schaltar (Dauntless, Epic)
- Shagrol (Dauntless, Epic)
- Sutha (Dauntless, Legendary)
- Tharivol (Dauntless, Legendary)
- Nastjenka (Dauntless, Legendary)
- Garett (Dauntless, Legendary)
- Ivellios (Dauntless, Legendary)
- Honorable Mention: Volthug (Defense, Epic), Iola (Support, Epic) & Vani (Dauntless, Rare)
Altair (Dauntless, Rare)
Altair has triple hit for his ultimate and the damage scales on his ASPD as well which is a complimentary stat for a Dauntless hero. He also does 80% extra Lightning damage on his basic attack after every skill cast. A good optional DPS.
Yagnatz (Dauntless, Rare)
Yagnatz has a powerful kit. His ultimate is 3 javelins considered as basic attack. His skill is also considered basic attack. All of his skill has pretty low cooldown which means consistent damage output. He also has a minor ASPD buff for himself every few hits, a solid Lightning DPS.
Nimbus (Dauntless, Epic)
The more ASPD you have, the longer Nimbus’s ultimate lasts. Another very interesting quirk is that while casting ultimate, he also does basic attacks. He also gets Attack Speed II when buffed, can be a solid Lightning DPS.
Schaltar (Dauntless, Epic)
Schaltar is a must-have piece in your team that runs on Dauntless types with basic attacks. Schaltar’s ultimate allows Dauntless allies with basic attacks to deal extra damage.
He also has Attack Up and a small shield that does damage. Focus on giving him Enlightenment, Attack, and you don’t have to give him crit stats.
Shagrol (Dauntless, Epic)
PVP dominator Shagrol is another solid Dauntless member who does 5 slashes for his ultimate which is also considered as basic attack. He does a strong single hit skill, has a maximum 40% chance of doing basic attacks twice, and adds ASPD to the team by 24%.
Sutha (Dauntless, Legendary)
Her ultimate is a 5-hit lightning damage that count as basic attacks and so is her battle skill. Her passive is more basic attack where she’ll do a follow-up attack if she deals critical attack. This compliments her ultimate that has increased crit rate. A really strong Lightning DPS hero!
Tharivol (Dauntless, Legendary)
His ultimate is increased attack by 15% on top of triggering multishots for each basic attack he does. The chance scales on his crit rate and even if it fails, it’ll still enhance the hit damage.
Its damage skill is a solid damage that ignores immortality. He can also increase his attack speed 15 times if he keeps shooting against the same enemy, which makes him a beast against bosses.
Nastjenka (Dauntless, Legendary)
Nastjenka is a strong Dauntless enabler who procs on basic attacks. When a Dauntless ally deals basic attack within 10s of her ultimate cast, she deals more damage.
Her skill deals solid damage and again, considered as basic attack. The longer she stays alive, she’s going to gain permanent crit rate based on her extra ASPD.
Garett (Dauntless, Legendary)
Garett is a straightforward hero who deals damage and trades his HP for that. He does a lot of damage depending on his HP fluctuation. Performs best when he ha a healer with him. He also increases crit damage for the whole party, a solid DPS character.
Ivellios (Dauntless, Legendary)
Ivellios’s ultimate and skill are okay for a legendary hero. But his strongest point is his passive skill which procs with every basic attack an ally does.
He’s a better Schaltar where he deals a follow-up attack whenever an ally deals a basic attack. Similarly, you can just give him a lot of attack and enlightenment stats.
Honorable Mention: Volthug (Defense, Epic), Iola (Support, Epic) & Vani (Dauntless, Rare)
Volthug can be a tanker and his damage scales with defense. Unfortunately, he has low defense if you compare to other heroes who don’t scale on defense. But this can be compensated with his passive where every buff in the party grants him extra Defense up to 10 times.
As a support, Irina is a crazy member to have in your party. Irina deals good damage on top of inflicting Attack Penalty II. She also grants shield that scales on the target’s max HP to keep the party up.
Another worth mentioning support character is Iola whose stat is straightforward. She inflicts Silence and Attack Penalty II for her ultimate. She also increases allies’ attack by 24% for all battles.
Vani does quite some damage, but her best part is granting Attack Speed Up II to other Dauntless heroes. She’s a great sub-DPS with support quality.
