🔍 Eliane Overview – Aether Power & Family Bonus

Eliane, the Senior Red Mage, emerges from the Legends 2025 family – a fiery legend whose presence blazes through any battlefield. While the family bonus remains unrevealed until later this year, one thing is certain: Eliane is here to set the meta on fire.

What makes her stand out immediately is her Aether Power: Special Armor, granting her +40% Defense against Special Skills for 6 turns at the start of every battle or wave. This ability alone gives her a strong presence both offensively and defensively – making her versatile enough for multiple team compositions.

Eliane’s passive defense setup makes her ideal for Flank or even Tank positions in both PvE and PvP.

Hero of the Month – March 2025
Element: 🔥 Fire | Class: Wizard | Family: Legends 2025
Aether Power: 🛡️ Special Armor
Mana Speed: Average
Role: All-Rounder (Damage, Support, Utility)
Overall Grade: ⭐ A

📊 Base Stats, Passives & Mana Mechanics

Eliane’s base stats show a well-rounded build – balanced between survivability and offensive output:

• Attack: Moderate
• Defense: Moderate
• HP: Moderate

Where she really starts to shine is in her passive skills:

1. Innate Resistance to Burn – she shrugs off Burn effects completely.
2. Mana Gain on Burn – every time an enemy takes Burn damage, Eliane gains +5% Mana.

That second passive is HUGE – especially when synergizing with her Special Skill. With 5 enemies affected by Burn, Eliane can potentially gain +25% Mana per turn for 4 turns. This can result in back-to-back casting if timed well.

Pro Tip: Stack her with other Burn-focused heroes (like Ray) for maximum passive Mana regen – yes, she feeds off the flames.

💥 Special Skill: Flame Surge – Multi-Role Destruction

Eliane’s special skill, Flame Surge, is a four-part powerhouse:

1. 🔥 Deals 300% damage to all enemies
2. 🔥 Inflicts 640 Burn damage over 4 turns
3. ✨ Dispels Buffs from all enemies
4. 🔗 Grants +30% Defense against Special Skills to all Fire allies for 4 turns

Let’s break this down:

• Direct Damage: Solid AoE hit. Great for wave clearing and pressure in PvP.
• Burn DOT: Scales well with her passive and synergizes with heroes like Gravemaker or Ray.
• Buff Dispel: A top-tier utility for dismantling enemy buffs (especially vs taunters like Ludwig, Krampus or Black Knight).
• Elemental Link: Provides survivability to your Fire squad – works well with red-heavy teams.

Optimization Tip: If the Dispel effect triggered before the damage, it would maximize damage output by removing enemy defense buffs first. Still, the current order makes her a tactical pick for sustained pressure.

📌 Role Analysis – Where Does Eliane Fit Best?

• Defense (Raid/Tournament): A-tier. Solid as a Flank or Tank, especially in Bloody Battle or Buff Booster formats.
• Offense (Raids/War): A-tier. High synergy with burn comps, disrupts enemy buffs.
• Tournaments: Excellent pick for Rush and Buff Booster formats.
• Titans: ❌ Not optimal – lacks single-target burst or defense debuffs.
• Events & PvE: Versatile. Her AoE and Burn can control waves effectively.

Meta Verdict: Eliane is a strong all-rounder who excels when paired with the right support. Burn teams, Wizard class synergies, and Fire-element stacks bring out her full potential.

🏆 Final Verdict – Is Eliane Worth It?

Absolutely.
Eliane checks all the boxes for a modern, meta-friendly hero:

✅ Burn synergy for passive Mana generation
✅ AoE burst and DOT pressure
✅ Dispel utility
✅ Elemental support for Fire teams
✅ High survivability with Aether Power

Despite being “average speed,” she plays like a fast hero when her passive kicks in – often allowing back-to-back Flame Surges that can turn battles in your favor. While her direct damage isn’t top-tier, the synergy of her entire kit makes her an S-tier tactical hero in the right hands.

💡 Recommendation: If you’re pulling this month, Eliane is a must-have. Level her up, slap on some Mana troops, and let the firestorm begin.
