Vulcanus (Gen 13)
🔥 Role & Basics
• Gen 13 Legendary Marksman hero with extremely high damage and strong debuffs.
• Very fragile by himself, but one of the strongest damage dealers of this generation if protected properly.
• Key hero for high-level rallies, capital fights and state-versus-state wars.
📊 Key Stats (max)
• Exploration: ATK 5263 / DEF 4338 / HP 32535
• Expedition: Lethality 405% / Health 405%
🛠 Exploration Skills
1) Siege Bolts – Fires three heavy bolts that shred defenses, dealing very high damage and inflicting Bleed. Bleed: deals Attack×10% damage every 0.5s for 3 seconds by default.
2) Chainlinked – Targets an enemy hero with a chained dart, dealing Attack×100/110/120/130/140% damage and immobilizing / stunning the target for 2 seconds.
3) Fire of Hope – Converts fury into discipline, increasing his escort troops' Attack by 10/15/20/25/30% and Defense by 10/15/20/25/30%. His exclusive upgrades can push Bleed up to Attack×20% every 0.5s for 3s.
⚔️ Expedition Skills (Troop Battles)
1) Raging Storm – Reduces all enemy troops' Attack by 4/8/12/16/20%. This makes enemy rallies hit noticeably softer.
2) Breaker Steel – After every 5 attacks, your troops deal extra damage and the target suffers additional Damage Taken of 5/7.5/10/12.5/15% on the next hit.
3) True Strike – Vulcanus' armor-piercing arrows greatly reduce the Defense of enemy Infantry and Lancers and increase your Marksmen's Attack by 12/24/36/48/60% for 1 turn. At max level, your main damage line gets a huge spike.
🎯 How to use Vulcanus
• One of the top damage + debuff heroes of Gen 13 – ideal for your main damage march.
• Amazing in capital fights, SVS and big alliance rallies, especially when combined with strong tanks and supports.
• From 4★ and higher, he is an excellent Bear Hunt rally leader: he boosts Rally Attack, applies strong debuffs and deals massive personal damage.
💰 F2P / Low Spender Tips
• Main sources: Lucky Wheel, mythic general hero shards and later the Foundry Shop.
• Reaching very high stars without spending is hard; realistic first step is 1–3 stars.
• Even at lower stars he is worth putting into your best damage march thanks to his skills.
💳 P2W / Heavy Spender Tips
• One of the best investments among Gen 13 heroes.
• If your alliance plays many rallies and Bear Hunts, aim to push him to 4★+ quickly.
• Combine him with support heroes that increase Damage Taken (like Flora) and tanks that keep him safe (like Gisela).
🤓 Beginner vs. Advanced Tips
• Beginners: Do not make him your very first project – build at least one solid tank first, then focus on Vulcanus as main DPS.
• Advanced players: Always place him in the back row of your top damage march with ATK/Crit badges. Use him as primary rally leader for serious PvP/Bear once he reaches 4★ or more.
