And it still Mana blocks Gaardâs Avatar. If they changed Ahriesâ mana designation Brown and two other colors that arenât Red and Yellow, then at least it would be a good support troop for Gaard.
If by support you mean using it for the third trait you can just stick it in the back, the trait will still trigger. I wouldnât really bother though, Shield of Urskaya provides much better support.
Troop uses red, yellow, and brown. Note that Megavore uses red, blue, brown, and deals (Magic x 2)+7 damage to any single troop AFTER removing all armor from ALL enemies.

So Megavore deals less damage, but itâs all true damage (whereas Ahries has to go through Armor and only ever hits the first target). Ahries does have 50% skull damage reduction AND deals double skull damage to stunned enemies. Thatâs pretty huge. However, Megavore is Impervious⌠and Ahries is not.
Megavore is one of the better/best (base) mythics out there. It probably isnât fair or reasonable to hope that Aries will measure up to him. On the other hand, one should hope that Aries isnât entirely useless, but he seems to be headed that way even with the bump to his damage and the cut to his mana cost.
On the other hand, the third trait on King Oberron is precisely what I figured it would be in light of his spell being mildly lacking. Heâll synergize with an all-Fey team well enough and Iâll probably even try him with mine â though the Fey team I use is heavy on Green and therefore wonât think much of the Firestorm â but I question how well heâll work outside that.
Not that there isnât a place for a healer/support type. But I suspect that a troop like Divinia still comes out ahead in the pecking order.
I have no problem with this, as i can now feel free to completely ignore it.
Or, I wonder how many full clear tiers will get me all rewards? Hmmmm. Remembering you get 9 freeâŚ
Oh, Iâm not concerned about Weekend Delves returning because other people need it done and I donât. Quite the opposite, its a good thing and its a weekend I can take easy once I get all of the stages done with my already leveled hoard.
For a lot of people, that would be redoing yet another weekday/weekend faction with gems, only this time to 600, just to try pure faction again at 600 stats.
Doesnât seem ideal.
I did beat up to 600 during Crypt Keepers first weekend, so it technically was a thing at one point. shrug
Letâs see if the idea of adding new troops to a faction ever gets off that drawing board; a lot of things never do, and a lot of things on that drawing board seem to be âtrial balloonsâ. You can see some interesting things way down the list if you look, such as suggestions for future traits⌠some of which actually happened. For example: the 3rd trait on the Elementalist class appeared in that âhypotheticalâ section long before the new kingdom did and went largely without comment in these spaces.
And if they do add troops to a delve? I have two hopes. First, that youâre looking at narrowly crafted spells of limited ability that synergize with what the troops for that faction already do and cover some of the blind spots in that team. Second, Iâd prefer Common-rarity troops because I feel there simply arenât enough of those in the game; outside of the Nexus release, we havenât seen a new Common-base rarity troop in a very long time.
But I have a bad feeling that this wonât be the case, that itâll be a higher base-rarity troop and the spell just might be some sort of âI winâ button as a way for the developers to try and quiet the complaining masses.
I donât think itâs the worst mythic, it has some potential synergies with Megavore, Gaard or Obsidious.
I mean looking at Gargantuar and Kalika.
I put this one along with Wulfgarok and Ubastet into the prep-work mythic tier. It canât really sustain itself, but needs some help from other troops.
