Hollan is going to be vital in so many areas and it is refreshing to see a release by SP that heeds the call of the community after such a long time. This GRE will be tough.
Thanks for the video. For sure, this guy will be my top priority from day one of the event until he is at least Diamond I. Will pair well with my Snotflogga...
Awesome as always, thanks for this. He’s clearly a must have character and I’ll be getting him levelled up as high as I can. Thinking he’ll be great parked behind Tyrant Guard. I’ll be interested to see the results oof your next experiment getting materials. It does seem to have improved now they’ve patched the patch but some numbers would be great. I get that it’s difficult to account for scarcity of materials but it would be really interesting if you could take some account in your how long to level up charts. I’ve been levelling the Patermine recently and some of his materials are very hard to come by. So yes, the overall energy requirement might not be that high but in terms of time it could be quite a bit more. Actually it might be interesting to see a total energy required figure on the graphs as well as a number of days if you have the time. And looking at the graphs I wonder why the silver stage is so short for all characters?
Hey DB, i always look forward to your analysis of LRE usefulness. Although Im not convinced that the ranking you put up is the best to come up with. let me explain. Its not only about the possibility to bring a character to the battle, but abiut their usefulness. While A0 and Revas can be brought to a lot of battles, they are also extremely capable of actually fighting, especially together they are extremely powerful. They are tanky, A0 can heal and has summons, both can fly and have multiple hits, revas has summons and overwatch and so on. Then there are toons up top in the list I wouldnt consider taking to the fight like Neurothrop or Calandis. They are pretty much useless in my opinion. they lack the armor and HP, can essentially only kill one enemy oer turn and generally dont bring anything usefull wirh them for the team. Gida for example is lower in your list, but I would level him up any day over Neuro and Calandis. He is one of the most powerful chars for LRE. pretty tanky, hits hard and summons very powerful units (and basically without limits). Another example is brother Jäger. Due to his mechanic he can oneshot anybody going to melee with him, which can provide a lot of kills out of turn. Shosyl is an essential character for the piercing track I believe. before I had him i wouldnt get past level 4 or 5 even with Dia3 Eldryon. Now I have him at D1 (plus TG at G1) and up to level 10 was a walk in the park. Bellator is another example of an extremely powerful LRE unit. I did some tracks basically only with him (and his summons). So long story short. Maybe you can come up with an idea of an improved overview that reflects that kind of usefulness (or uselessness) of a character. So characters I see in the top ten for LRE are (not necessarily in order). Aleph, Revas, Bellator, Gida, Tyrant Guard, Shosyl, Abraxas, Abaddon, Maladus, Rotbone. Leveling just these ten Chars to D1/D2 will basically guarantee a 4 or 5* LRE. Honorable Mentions: Mataneo, Ulf, Isabella, Incisus, Ahrimann, Jäger, Burchard, Celestine, Snotflogga. Thats about most you need for white star unlock at a very quick glance. So maybe you can take a look what would be the Ideal team for any given fight you would choose if you had unlimited resources and see whats really left of all chars in Tacticus. I bet not more then 30, maybe less. Within those 30 chars it does make sense to level the ones with the most points first to be able to complete LRE with the best result.
It’s just maths and anything else I play around with ends up being personal opinion and I don’t want to get into discussions around it tbh. This is why I also do the “Plan now and get xxx for free” videos. That goes into more detail about who you should level
Thanks for another awesome review, i always look forward to them whenever we get a new character. He'll be essential for MoW, onslaught and legendary for me. Also vital for survival, i wonder how is passive will work there?
Thank you for another great video, DB. Regarding Holland, I will certainly give it a try but I fear him not to be very capable in LRE being so “soft”. The skills look quite nice though, buffing, healing and summoning are always great tools. I think a tough Ork Painboy could have been nicer. We shall see.
@@DBPreacherTacticus Definitively! Unfortunately in LRE sometimes that might be a bit challenging (BT Flamers, Orks Tanks, Blk Legion plenty of stuff, etc). I think he will require to be over levelled to cope with LRE waves.
I knew it! We will be getting a devastation of Baal campaign. There’s no reason why SP would release 3 Tyranid/genestealers within a month of each other. All this as a Christmas present mark my words!! I’ve sorely lacked reason to upgrade the Tyranids. Only big brain is gold one and the second highest is bronze 3 😢
Well, before he was anounced I had said I hope the next character would be a biophagus to give xenos a healer. So I am certainly putting in the effort for him.
Sick of SP’s HRE bullshit. How many players know that just about 50 out of 50K players get the featured unit unlocked at Legendary? And maybe 100 more can get him to Legendary if they get and pay the oh so close offer?
@@Ashaeron it is fine but I don’t think players understand what their money is getting them and/or the level of investment required to be one of those 150 out of 50K
Xeno bio healer..
This is beautiful
Now just get me a 'Devestation of Baal' campign and mirror
Wouldn’t that be something!
This toon is "absolute must have". Only xenos real healer with one hit? LRE must have. Machine event must have.
Yep definitely!
Exactly

Yeah we need to start saving energy already 😅😅
Thanks for the video. For sure, this guy will be my top priority from day one of the event until he is at least Diamond I. Will pair well with my Snotflogga...
It’s the same for me. I’m just wondering how high I can get him before the Kharn legendary event
Definitely gonna work on this one! And i think that's a first time in a while when i can say that 😅
Thanks for the vid, great as always!
Yeah you and me both brother! I’ve skirted with champions recently but this is the first omg must level him champ

I can add total energy for sure, I have it all.
That would be cool thanks. Interesting to see how it affects the order.
Thanks for the video! I'm a bit gutted there will be no Tournament Arena during this HRE for the extra energy though, but can't wait to unlock Hollan!
We all need him so badly!
Great video! I’m excited to get it! A definite must have. 🍻
100%

Yeah he can heal mechs in survival, that’s definitely something new! Glad you enjoyed it!

He certainly does amazing stuff!

You called it!
This is the information I need
I’m glad to deliver ❤️
Does the absence of TA for this HRE affect the ability to get to epic?
Hmm. I need to do the maths. 🧐
Love the puns!
Thank you ❤️❤️
I expect to see him stood directly behind tyrant guard an awful lot.
Exactly this, when we don’t have the possibility of incisus in events, he should be there
Poor Creed getting abused as always
The man is a comedian not a castellan
>First Xenos healer
>Does he do anything
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm i wonder............🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Only a few hours to go until we can get into his event!
@DBPreacherTacticus Yeah! I'm super excited :3
Isn't it nov 27? Not 17?
Not according to the tacticus calendar?
@DBPreacherTacticus just saw from nandi video he said nov27 lol
wet socks 😄
Castellan creed is a terror!
All you F2P out there start stockpiling your energy now!
Great advice!

Given its specifically NOT a Legendary Release Event, this seems absolutely fine.
I’m just happy to get him at epic 1 level!
@@Ashaeron it is fine but I don’t think players understand what their money is getting them and/or the level of investment required to be one of those 150 out of 50K
Who's the fruitcake 😅
What can we do with castellan creed! He is something else isn’t he?
Jesus these cringy ai videos
I made a video just for you:
