I built her in critical damage substat and gloves, and ended up @ 98% crit rate. Her base gearset is the swift parry set, and it's pretty awesome. She's hitting twice as hard as I actually expected.
Your math is off. Soulbond Boyer's extra 25% chance to crit across her kit plus 15% base, plus 5% from Attack Tree Mastery equals 45% crit chance before gear. She needs 55% extra from gear to crit every time.
Its a rip off...plarium was banned from japan...the parent company is a gambling mogul...they study ways to get ppl psycologically depend....just like casinos
@SepsinUzivo TV u arent gonna have gear like ash.he get for free...doesnt make any sense too watch their videos we will never have the same champs to compose team or the same gear
I started building her after she came out and she got some hype, but abandoned the project after scoring some legos. She's still at 5* in my vault, time to circle back to her.
@@jasonbourne1596 Yeah, two as well, FW only. I figured I'd keep em at the very least for a fusion event, but then it started being about shards anyways.
New player, just pulled her, thanks for the rundown on how to use her and I'll take your word for it on the effectiveness of retaliation over anything else. She'll actually more than likely be a big boon on my account and this gets a good use of the retaliation gear I considered trash because it wasn't hp% for Deliana. Hoping she can be useful in Arena, I'm finally able to hang out in gold 2 at about 43 days in playing. Current team is Hurndig, Mother Cybele, Kael, Deliana with Mother as leader so my Hurndig has about 240 speed so he can slap the enemy speed booster with a No using stasis strike. Relentless gear so sometimes he kills the entire enemy side if he wigs out because I was able to fluke into some good tourney wins.
Great video Ash! Loving the content! I would love to see some reviews of maybe hidden gems, so uncommon rare etc. One that comes to mind would be Suntribe!
If they're your only Legendary champs, use them. Both are solid. Book them as you're able, but don't stress about it. Play with the champions you have.
I built mine with a relentless set... the extra turn is a huge difference maker. As a farmer, I use her against the Lifesteal boss on days you need to defeat a Campaign Boss 3 times for your dailies.
@@StayaYL I figure 27 energy for 3 runs against Bad-El is worth the chance at 5 star rare Lifesteal gear. Granted it's 3 star circular file stuff usually, but...
I have her as my arena defense lead in a stun set. With her extra 52% resist and stuns it allows the rest of my team to clean up. I sneak a lot of victories :)
Soulbond was actually the reason I was able to clear out spiders20. I made her low HP and low Defense combined with MM for heals. I had her in a retaliation set aswell and she was putting out 11+ million damage.
Is this the way you'd build for sure after trying out retaliation? I have my soulbond sat in the vault and want to rank her up sometime but not sure how I'll equip her. Is there a place you'd use lifesteal on her instead?
I was happy when I pulled her, was going to build her as Coldheart-light, but then I pulled the actual thing, and there went that idea. She is one of those champs whose damage is really lackluster without being booked, and while she is a Rare, she still takes a lot of books (16 vs Coldheart's 12), and I can't toss even Rare books around at random. You certainly built her to get more damage than I've thought she would deliver, but it clearly takes some effort to get there. I don't have that quality Retaliation gear, and it'll be a long time before she gets her masteries. Also, her AI seems to be somewhat broken, which is never useful. I don't mind going manual in Arena; I almost always do so anyway, but in Dungeons I don't want to have to bother. Well, they fixed Coldheart's AI, maybe they'll pay some attention to Soulbond as well. I dunno. I feel she was overhyped to start with -- certainly for me being a beginning player it would have taken resources I didn't have. I ended up not even having her on my Tag Arena teams except when I need a second, big single-target TM reducer; she's not nuking hard enough w/o books and masteries.
Hey man, was wondering whether you could make a champion guide on Alika. I would really like it a lot because I'm a F2P player and she was the first epic I summoned from a shard. Thanks
Sorry to cut in on THIS vid with a previously raised issue but. Everyone whines about silver - most "free" to play games have a dynamic where it is still possible to grind continuously to get most things. The ENERGY mechanic in Raid is what makes this not possible. Take away the need for energy and you can get most things through pure work (as it should be) and all silver issues go away. Everyone is focussed on the wrong core issue. p.s. thanks for THIS vid, I've held on to her for a long while after liking her from early levelling. She is likely the most underrated of the op rares.
soulbound works as a spider 20 tank high resist low hp with 4 armigers, but soulbound has to have0000 life steal gear, gets shaky when you start to kill the spiderlings but its all good (need to have the talent 25% loss counters)
It's a good gear set on the right person i.e. AOE A1 , turn meter proc A1 or in my case tuhac...with cooldown skills and he gets multiple strikes in a battle it's so good
Ash. Off topic. But Haarken has such great potential but her AI is absolutely busted. She doesn't use anything but A1 in CB doesn't use her debuff spread on spider. I know you have her on your f2p account and she would be awesome for you if you could use her on auto
I'm F2P and a little stuck on what I should be working on next. I have Kael and Athel at 60. Warmaiden, Royal Guard, High Khatun, Diabolist, Romero, Zargala, and Skull Lord Var-Gall at 50. I then have a few other options that I could level with Frozen Banshee, Bog Walker, Sentinel, Soulbond Bowyer, Dark Elhain, Luria, Corpse Collector, Hellgazer, Pitiless One, Fang Cleric, Fenax, and Kaiden. Any thoughts?
I like relentless on healers and revivers too. Been using reflex to get through faction wars 21s. Going for 3rd and final faction skinwalkers. Hopefully steelskull can pull it off through RNG
Ash man I’ve got some of the best champs in the game. Albeit a lot of them I just got. I’m progressing well I’m just unsure out of the many champs I have which I should focus on building for my CB team. I was lucky and my first pull ever on a sacred I got krisk.
Hey ASH i just pulled Tyrant, i'm focusing on ACC and DEF on him but if you have him can you do a video on him, i couldn't find any videos on Tyrant... TNX
What if I don’t have any retaliation yet? What should I use all crit rate gear? Help please(Im fairly new been playing a few days just got past felwins gate in campaign)
YES! One of the few specialist champions where you can afford to put her in Attack Percentage boots because of her bonus attacks from her passive whenever she gets frozen.
I have Dark Elhain built and she does so much damage. absolute beast in Ice golem and she will even out damage kael in dragon as well. so yes build her out if you can!
Hey there. Great video. Do you have a discord channel at all as I'd love to ask a few questions on how I could progress better than I am with this game.
I was using her at the beginning. In the same set 😆 And it wasnt that good at the time. Then i pulled a Coldheart and she lands in the vault. Not bad chsmpion 🤘🤘🤘
Hey ash, when you were talking about soul bound shot you said you have a 75% chance to ignore target defense. And that isn’t true. It said it will ignore 75% of target defense
if anyone wants to quite but doesnt want his account to go to waste, just hmu because id love to play this game with more than just the small champs i have xD and ofcourse if you want to come back to it someday that's np, you can just take it over again.
Just keep playing you'll eventually get lucky and get some good heroes. I didn't get my first lego till day 77, and then less than 2 weeks after that I got another.
Would have been interesting to see results with her in the lead on the DT runs. Apo's aura wasn't giving you any benefit there. Cool build though. Only champ I put retaliation gear on was Jizoh because when I first started the game I thought that the sets they gave you your first 2 weeks were meant to go on the free epic you got at the end of the gear cycle that week, lol.
Pulled her the first week and fed her bc i just had to upgrade mystic hand 🙄 and in almost 8 months have yet to pull another. As far as guides can you do bloodgorged. I know hes super high on everyones list but there really isnt much out there on him.
I really wish they would fix her AI in Spider though, cus as someone who has no CH, she is my only full TM depletion champ but she just won't do it on auto
Ash I appreciate your efforts, but Soulbond doesn't have a nice modfier for A1, so this strategy may fail quite a lot. She can delivery something on 2 Cruel, but without 30% atk she might fail on A1.
i prefer her in lifesteal or relentless gear. she is not made to take a hit so counter is pointless imo. at least for mid or early end game people where we dont have beast supports or gear like u
Hey ash, I have a question that I think yoy could also make a video out of. What does more damage in specific areas of the game? Weaken VS decrease defense. So I know with clan boss he isn't particularly defensive and armor ignoring Champs like soulbond aren't useful there so I can only assume if you only have an option between a decrease def or a weaken to add to your clan boss team you will want to add the weaken. But how does this idea apply to other areas of the game such as dungeons and is my theory right about clan boss, also are different dungeons different I.e is weaken better in spider but decrease defense better in ice golem
I built her in critical damage substat and gloves, and ended up @ 98% crit rate. Her base gearset is the swift parry set, and it's pretty awesome.
She's hitting twice as hard as I actually expected.
A friend owns a soulbond bowyer f2p just started 6 days ago, I'm gonna fetch this video and give it to him. Interesting build, thanks.
Awesome!
Really nice video about Soulbond Bowyer. Thanks, Ash!
Lower your prices already

Yup, I need to finish working on mine and research her...I also call her Cold-heart light.
Cold heart is better every day
Finally!! I like that we are taking another look at her!
Thx man you’re really making this game a lot easier and enjoyable. 👍
Love to hear it
I literally just 6 starred a Soulbond Bowyer and cannot find a use for her anywhere - so glad you posted this today :D
The timing is uncanny. I’ve been messing around with her in savage lately, just to see what she could do.
When I realize I have that entire room tower team: 🧐
@SepsinUzivo TV gears and great hall stats
Its a rip off...plarium was banned from japan...the parent company is a gambling mogul...they study ways to get ppl psycologically depend....just like casinos

Hey Ash why didn't u put her as lead in doom tower, as the aura for apothecary works only in dungeons?
I run retaliation on my Fellhound, and yes this is a nice damage spike.
Wait a min, didn't she had a AoE attack based on enemy max HP? Or is that another champ I'm mixing her with, another rare maybe?
I'm really happy you pronounced the name Bowyer correctly, hugs from Tracy Bowyer
Could you do a guide on shirimani or iron brago? They are my only legendaries and I want to use them but don’t know if I should book them or use them
If they're your only Legendary champs, use them. Both are solid. Book them as you're able, but don't stress about it. Play with the champions you have.
Iron Brago is EXCELLENT. Start there.
Definitely invest in Brago. He is good everywhere, even clan boss.
Vogoth also hits okay if you put a ton of HP on him.
I built mine with a relentless set... the extra turn is a huge difference maker. As a farmer, I use her against the Lifesteal boss on days you need to defeat a Campaign Boss 3 times for your dailies.
I typically just do the normal mode, first boss.15 energy for 3 runs, easy and quick.
@@StayaYL I figure 27 energy for 3 runs against Bad-El is worth the chance at 5 star rare Lifesteal gear. Granted it's 3 star circular file stuff usually, but...
Thanks, Ash! I had her in the vault at 40 with crap gear. I still don't have great Retal gear, but I'm definitely going to build her now.
👍🏼
Do you think she is even more valuable now bc of her fully depletes turn meter ability?
Can you build Banshee? Another rare never looked at or talked about that i think has a lot of potential
I have her as my arena defense lead in a stun set. With her extra 52% resist and stuns it allows the rest of my team to clean up. I sneak a lot of victories :)
You should do a video on regen set they buffed it and you heak 15 hp which is literally a continuous heal buff I think its underrated
Soulbond was actually the reason I was able to clear out spiders20. I made her low HP and low Defense combined with MM for heals. I had her in a retaliation set aswell and she was putting out 11+ million damage.
Great video. I have her in my FTP account and this information is great to know so i can use her correctly.
Tormin in retaliation plus retribution and fearsome presence works out really great as well for CC

Soulbond is one of my top hitters got her in lifesteal /accuracy for now only have 1 lego at this time.(

I have an Errol and was looking for a good AOE partner to complement him 🤔 should I build her or wait for something else? My resources are limited
It doesn't make any sense to add a stun champion if you're running retaliation gear.
Cool. I'll have to rebuild her this week using that equipment

more than likely the reason she starts 12-3 with the single target is she has the affinity advantage on the champ she kills.
