Lucius: skills, upgrades and Might

Lucius is an SSR warrior who plays as tank. Fully upgraded, he reaches 778,239 Might, rank 7 of 11 among the game's tanks. Unlocking him takes 10 shards ( Lucius Shard), and the shards become available once the Warrior Statue reaches level 20.

Why he matters

Role: A warrior tank who hits back hard: his Decapitation at 1,874.4% of ATK ranks second of seven among tank active skills. The ultimate Whirlwind Cut adds another 2,029.2%. His only damage reduction sits in the passive God of War Blessing and applies to monsters alone.

Worth investing: Lucius ranks seventh of eleven tanks by maximum Might (778,239), the best result among the SSR heroes of his role. He stands in almost every budget warrior squad, so investment in him pays off until the UR tanks open up, after which he moves to the bench for the squad-wide bonus.

Progression

Stars

Reaching 50 stars takes 975 shards ( Lucius Shard). Besides stats, stars unlock stronger versions of the skills, which makes them matter more than levels:

Skill levels

Every skill goes up to level 40 with Skill Badge: one skill costs 436,700 of them. The higher the level, the more hero stars it requires:

How to play

Among the SSR tanks Lucius leads by maximum Might: 778,239 against 773,500 for Bella, 764,263 for Griffith and 750,047 for Hastar. He carries his weight through damage: Decapitation lands 1,874.4% of ATK and Whirlwind Cut 2,029.2%. Cover he barely provides, since the 24% reduction of God of War Blessing applies to monsters alone.

Nothing delays Lucius: he is in the hero list from day one, unlocks for 10 shards, and depends neither on a season day nor on server age. Shards arrive from recruiting, where a hero shard drops in roughly 26% of pulls. The limit of any investment is clear from the start, 50 stars and 40 skill levels, with nothing above them.

Lucius has neither awakening nor an Exclusive Weapon, so levels and stars carry the whole limit: 2,012,674 HP, 8,625 ATK and 11,181 DEF. Skills weigh the most at 436,700 badges for one and 1,746,800 for all four, while 50 stars cost 975 shards.

The best line-up without a single UR hero is Celia, Lucius, Sivir, Bella and Hastar, worth 9.3M of survivability and +15% for four warriors. With Arthur and Marlena the squad turns pure warrior, the bonus grows to +20% and survivability to 38.8M, and once the UR tanks arrive Lucius pays +10% from the bench.

Synergy

• Faction bonus +10% to HP, ATK and DEF: 3 warriors + 2 warlocks.
• Incoming damage reduced by 75% for the squad: Arthur 32%, Billy 29%, Ulfrid 14%. The sum hits the model's 75% cap.
• Shields and healing add 12.8M survivability: Arthur, Daskal.
• Roles: 5 tanks.

Key skills

• Arthur, Earthshattering (every 7s): −35% damage taken by the squad for 5s
• Arthur, Strong Will (passive): −9% damage taken by tanks
• Daskal, Bloodshed Defense (every 6.4s): 792% DEF shield
• Daskal, Resolute Fight (passive): 22.5% HP shield
• Billy, Fate's Thread (every 5s): −36% damage taken by the squad for 4s
• Ulfrid, Throat Bite (every 7s): −27% damage taken by the squad for 4s
• Ulfrid, Sharp Claw (auto attack): 996% ATK damage
• Daskal, Battle Will (auto attack): 996% ATK damage
• Arthur, Battle Shield (auto attack): 900% ATK damage

Why this is the best combination available

• Arthur's main contribution: 32% squad damage reduction, 8.4M of shields per fight. The best substitute among your heroes, Louis, does not match it: without Arthur the squad's result drops by 45%.
• Billy's main contribution: 29% squad damage reduction. The best substitute among your heroes, Louis, does not match it: without Billy the squad's result drops by 9%.
• Daskal's main contribution: 2.0M of shields per fight, 1.2M of healing per fight. The best substitute among your heroes, Annie, does not match it: without Daskal the squad's result drops by 4%.

When to use it

• The best squad on the "Effectiveness" tab differs by the swap Lucius, Daskal → Annie, Joker: it gains 37% more effectiveness but loses 0% effectiveness. Trade only when effectiveness is what matters.
• The best squad on the "Survivability" tab differs by the swap Lucius, Billy, Ulfrid → Marlena, Harper, Louis: it gains 8% more survivability but loses 0% effectiveness. Trade only when survivability is what matters.
• The best squad on the "Max damage" tab differs by the swap Lucius, Arthur, Daskal → Red Lady, Annie, Joker: it gains 65% more damage per second but loses 56% effectiveness. Trade only when damage per second is what matters.
• The best squad on the "Max power" tab differs by the swap Lucius, Billy → Shadow, Louis: it gains 7% more power but loses 7% effectiveness. Trade only when power is what matters. Power is a storefront sum that ignores synergy; it decides less in a real fight.

How this is calculated

Stats are taken at full investment (level and star template, personal growth ratio, awakening and exclusive gear). Over a 30-second fight every skill casts on its cooldown, the first cast at its initial delay. Survivability = (HP + shields + healing) / (1 − damage reduction, capped at 75%). Defense and troops are computed server-side and are outside the model. Index 100 = the best squad built from all heroes in the game.
