Dreadshade build analysis
Dreadshade is an epic support hero. Compared with the other 28 epic support heroes in the database, Dreadshade sits in the middle of its class on raw stats. Among top players, the most settled part of the build is trait (Accuracy, 72.4%) and the least settled is pet (Fragmented Time (M), only 7.7%), so the pet slot is where you have the most freedom to adapt.
How settled is each slot?
The pick rate of the most popular option shows how much top players agree. Dreadshade's top talent, Revive, is picked 54.3% of the time, which is 29.8 points more settled than the typical hero (median 24.5%).
| Slot | Top pick | Runner-up | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Talent | Revive (54.3%) | Sacred Light (5.2%) | near-universal |
| Insignia | Survival Insignia (45.1%) | Revitalize Insignia (15.5%) | clear favourite |
| Square Insignia | Ancient Insight Insignia (36.9%) | Winged Rebirth Insignia (30.3%) | clear favourite |
| Equipment | Calming Hourglass (27.0%) | Holy Conviction (11.4%) | contested |
| Trait | Accuracy (72.4%) | HP (12.8%) | near-universal |
| Pet | Fragmented Time (M) (7.7%) | Fragmented Time (4.0%) | no consensus |
Near-universal is 50% or more, clear favourite 30–50%, contested 15–30%, no consensus under 15%. When a slot is contested, the runner-up is usually a reasonable substitute if you don't own the top pick.
Stats compared with other epic support heroes
| Stat | Dreadshade | Peer median | Rank vs peers | Rank overall |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base ATK | 320 | 380 | 29 / 29 | 95 / 208 |
| Base HP | 14,200 | 13,000 | 8 / 29 | 19 / 208 |
| ATK growth per level | 19 | 18 | 10 / 29 | 50 / 208 |
| HP growth per level | 310 | 310 | 12 / 29 | 33 / 208 |
| Attack interval (lower is faster) | 1,400 ms | 1,400 | 6 / 29 | 117 / 208 |
| Move speed | 325 | 315 | 4 / 29 | 20 / 208 |
Across all 208 heroes of every rarity, base ATK ranks 95th of 208 and base HP ranks the 19th-highest (top 10%). Its skill has a 7s cooldown. Part of its skill ignores immunity, so enemies that are normally immune to conditions can still be affected. It also has passive effects that work without using the skill, listed in the skill description above.
