Transcripts

howy everyone poo here with an age of

magic video and in today's video we'll

be doing the hero Spotlight for Benedict

the Healer for the Crimson order aka the

new arons this faction has strong

Synergy with the archons we'll cover

that in a different video however since

the arons did get some reworks to their

abilities and how they work with the

Crimson order so as usual we'll go over

stats abilities look at the animations

and talk a little bit about the hero so

let's get into it going over Benedict

stats hit points come in at 27 million

speed 224 armor

538k magic damage resistance 1 million

basic magic damage 1.6 million magic

critical hit chance 57 and Magic

critical damage 3.1 million going into

the stats more in depth you can feel

free to take any information you want

use it how you see fit

is there for you so we'll jump over to

the arena now and go over his abilities

as there are only two characters for the

faction we'll have a bit of a play

around since we can mess around with the

archons as well but we won't go too much

into combat with them since they're

still a fair bit of the faction that

needs to be released going over

Benedict's basic attack we have sacred

flame performs a range magic attack on

one target cast regeneration on the Ally

with the lowest hp% for two turns at the

start of their turn the the target

restores 33% HP removes one stack of

Enlightenment from Benedict and casts

regeneration on one other random Ally

doesn't apply to support attacks

Awakening this ability damage is

increased by 35% regeneration lasts for

longer and restores more HP looking at

the animation of the attack we're going

to go ahead and just attack a random

gatekeeper and cool his stuff lights up

and he shoots a beam down pretty

straightforward nothing crazy about this

ability good he to it but nothing insane

not the craziest we've seen pretty

straightforward Benedict's second

ability is sanctuary removes all Shields

from the Target and places them on an

ally with the lowest current HP if the

target has no Shields the Ally receives

Target in cover for two turns Defenders

cannot be chosen as targets or become

recipients of the effect performs a

merely magical attack on the Target

self-cast Target in cover for three

turns removes three stacks of

enlightenment from Benedict and restore

60% HP to all allies if Benedict has

less than three but more than zero

Stacks the existing Stacks are spent

restoring 30% HP Awakening this ability

if Benedict removes Shields he increases

the initiative of a random Crimson order

or archon Ally by

33% we'll go ahead and look at the

animation of the ability again we're

just going to cast on a random

gatekeeper he shoots up and boom just

light light damage ladies and gentlemen

but this is the first ability we've ever

seen that allows you to destroy the

shield on an enemy and then reapply it

to an ally so it has pretty good

survivability and utility to it I'm sure

it could come very useful against some

teams um Cloud wers for example when the

roxan leadership ability is awakened

they all start with a shield then you've

got goo that can apply Shields quite

quickly and they are very effective so

there's definitely use for this

somewhere Shields are quite prominent in

a lot of the meta squads so to be able

to protect your allies by applying

Shields to them through absorbing it of

an enemy I know it's quite quite nice I

like it going over Benedict's third

ability we have radiant Mercy cast five

stacks of damage reflection on archon or

Crimson order Defender allies an enemy

who deals damage to such an ally

receives damage equal to 70% of the

damage dealt one stack is spent when

damage is taken all other allies receive

an effect that increases the chance of

dealing critical damage up to 100% for

three turns performs a range magic

attack on all enemies removes four

stacks of Enlightenment from Benedict

and casts Resurrection ban on the Target

and three random enemies for three turns

if Benedict has less than four but no

more than zero Stacks then the number of

random enemies is reduced by two

Awakening this ability instead of damage

reflection it casts Parry on the

defender or Defenders any enemy

attacking such a Defender will receive

70% of the damage dealt damage received

by by the defender is reduced by

50% we are all familiar with Parry it is

the ability that Siri and Yuki have and

now Benedict is able to apply it to the

tanks or Defenders of the archon and the

Crimson order faction if the ability is

awakened so if you're looking for a more

sustainable tank then definitely worth

Awakening I haven't seen the Crimson

order tank but we all know Magnus as

well and Magnus is very efficient at

applying

a lot of the time he has the enemy

attacking himself because when allies

drop below a certain per of HP he insta

applies taunt to himself through his

passive so this could be very effective

for Magnus for example I'm not sure the

Crimson order tank how he will operate

or she will operate whether she is very

efficient in torting or forcing enemies

to attack her if we compare it to Yuki

for example Yuki can put Parry up and

the enemies can almost ignore her it's

beneficial to try and get rid of her if

you can cuz she offers defensive

abilities to her allies but there is no

nothing forcing the enemy to attack her

and you're not getting that damage

reflection off of it so it would be very

interesting to see how this works on

Magnus or the Crimson order tank looking

at the ability and its visual effects

we're going to go ahead and cast it so

he floats up into the air and just

absolutely blasts the enemy with a beam

of light you can see res Direction ban

applied to three of them so yeah pretty

good utility and the ability to add

defensive capabilities to your tank

finally we have Benedict's passive

Enlightenment restores 25% HP to an ally

when they reach level three of Devotion

to the order do not be confused we

haven't talked about Devotion to the

order it is something that lucious the

leader to the Crimson order has built

within him so when we cover him you'll

understand it starts the wave with 10

stacks of Enlightenment reduces the

damage received by 8% per stat when

Benedict has no Enlightenment stapped he

cannot miss or be dodged he also

receives unremovable true strike

Benedict's next amount of damage will be

dealt twice but cannot be critical if

Benedict dies and was revived he would

come back with the same number of

Enlightenment stats as the time of his

death Awakening this when Benedict does

not have Enlightenment he casts

Brotherhood of Blood on two allies with

the lowest HP for two turns each time

Benedict deals damage an ally is healed

for 50% of the damage dealt so Awakening

him is going to allow him to heal more

to his allies protecting the ones with

the lowest HP so very very interesting

hero but it's a faction I believe that

has very strong Synergy with its allies

and it will be interesting to see how

the archons compared to the Crimson

order obviously the Crimson order I

think are just going to outweigh the

archons but it will be interesting to

see nonetheless the devotion to the

order I think plays a big part with the

Allies I'm not sure how it affects the

arons but we will cover that again like

I said in the lucious spotlight video so

there is Benedict the Healer to the

Crimson order anyway ladies and

gentlemen thank you so much for watching

if you have any questions feel free to

leave a comment below I will answer it

to the best of my ability and wherever

you are on the world until next time

please take care of yourself
