Heroes Comparison - Infantry (2015/12/25)

Here it is! Merry Christmas!

Infantry skill set and function is very diversed, ranging from super tank, support to boost output to AoE caster. So it should be fun to start with this class.

Top 3 of my preference will be listed. If you have your own preference, feel free to share in the comments!

Here is the list of all 4* infantries:

  • William
  • Reinhard
  • Summers
  • Helmar
  • Saladin
  • Joan
  • Ragnar
  • Octavius

Output (The squad with highest physical damage and skill damage)

  1. Octavius
  2. William
  3. Joan
     Reason:

  • Octavius is obviously the most damage squad (sometime even better than Ignatius) if paired with adequate heal (Morale Heal, Hycainth etc)
  • William is the 2nd most damaging squad for his short CD, high output AoE.
  • I put Joan the 3rd place. When she is at higher level and minion damage is significant, her buff surely allows her squad to deal a lot of damage.

(I am thinking if Saladin is better than Joan. Only if I had Saladin can I test it...)

Tank (The squad who can tank the best)

  1. Reinhard
  2. Helmar
  3. Summers

      Reason:

  • Reinhard is surely the tankiess with his invincibility. 
  • Helmar is great if he is well-equipped and he will be better than Summers in this sense.
  • Summers's stone minions are not buffed with defense but their second life is good to take punch.


Utility (The squad who help others the most)

  1. Reinhard
  2. Joan
  3. Saladin
     Reason:


  • Reinhard's invincibility helps other squads surviving. That's why 5+1 rally is very strong.
  • Joan is in 2nd place for her 60%+ minion damage increase.
  • Saladin is in 3rd place, with similar reason as Joan (I like Joan more so I placed her in 2nd place. Saladin might be better than Joan in the sense that his skill is guaranteed but Joan needs to proc)

  1. Helmar really is better tanky of Summers?
    Summers can withstand a really long time. I am still waiting for Reinhard or Alash .. :(
    I look forward to more posts of Best Hero Series.

    1. If Helmar has great gears and max skill, tactically he is more tanky i think =]

      (just my feeling for this one)

    2. He's better at low levels. But with strong minions Summers is much, much better. Helmar is useless at 100+ lvl.

    3. If Helmar is with proper gears (slill dmg reduction) i think he will be alright? Phil should be able to sustain the clones and the rea Helmar for a very long time.

      Yet, Summers is really good for sure! I want him badly...

    4. When minions become strong, Helmar becomes weak, gear won't really help.

  2. It seems to me that it is more tanky as a hero, while minions Summers are much better than minions Helmar. In this you may be right;)

    1. It was a hard decision on Helmar over Summers. For sure Summers is a great tank and i would use him if i have him

  3. At higher lvls summers is way better than helmar.
    Saladin is the best buff caster,since it can cast surely for his entire row,align him with leo,achi and Ignatius. Hence the death row
