I used him on level 8. He is a beast!!!!!
Just pulled one from a rare soul. Working on it a bit, but want to max my Sentinel first.
The Sentinel one looks really nice. His passive seems OP. At least in the dungeon they heal from almost dead to good as new in one hit :P
What I did not understand about what Matt said is if this warrior Golden Son is supposed to have a passive or not. AFAIK every other Golden Son seems to have one, but the warrior and the assassin don't.
We'll have to wait and see.
His passive essentially is a 50% heal boost. His heal on attack is an almost 30% max HP heal - so during those first turns it heals for a little over 40% of your max health. If you invest skill shards, that number can climb as high as 60%! Only downside is that it's a 35% chance that doesn't get raised with skill shards. So if you're relying on him for heal support, best bring Accuracy Boosts. On the plus side, he ALSO has the most annoying buff in the game, Heal Shield (for a whopping 3 turns at 5 Power). 50% mitigation and 25% Heal - that's effectively 75% mitigation as long as that 50% doesn't kill you. I tried stacking it with Reflect, but it doesn't. Too bad - who doesn't want 100% mitigation with returned damage on the attackers?
I'll put him up as my Trooper once I get him a little more up to speed.
I'm guessing that the passive works with the Heal Shield as well... Does it?
