Beta (Hero)

Beta is a playable Hero Character in The Walking Dead: No Man's Land. Beta is unlocked only through acquiring 500 of his specific Hero tokens. When unlocked, he starts at 4 stars.
He is of the Warrior class and has the Hero Leader trait of One With The Herd. He also has Ruthless, Iron Skin, Power Strike and Strong.
==Leader Trait — One With The Herd==
Beta is not attacked by walkers when he moves past them. Passing by a walker gives Beta {0}% chance to gain up to 1 Charge Point; each passed walker increases this chance by {1}%. Every walker passed by Beta becomes a part of the Herd, following Beta and not attacking him nor his allies during the next turn. Tank, Spiked, and Goo walkers cannot become a part of the Herd. Attacking a herded walker removes the status.
As a leader, each member of your team gains this trait.
Level	Charge Point Chance	+ Chance Point Chance Per Walker
3 	13% 	8%
4 	15% 	9%
5 	17% 	9%
6 	20% 	10%
7 	23% 	10%
8 	27% 	11%
9 	30% 	11%
10 	36% 	12%
== How to use Beta ==
Beta is currently considered one of the worst warriors in the game (together with Jerry), due to Warriors being able to push, stun, root and cripple walkers, meaning there is very little need of herding walkers. Things were different when Beta was introduced (together with the Herding status effect) and back then he was one of the best or even the best warrior. Things have changed since then and in the current meta there is really no use of Beta outside being the Star Hero once a year or so, or as a stand-in in case all other warriors are in the hospital. He also isn't in any Last Stand rosters without being together with some other and better warrior.
Beta works best in the normal offensive warrior role, so should be equipped with 3 Damage and 3 Critical Damage badges. His Iron Skin trait can be rerolled to Weakening.
=== One With the Herd ===
Beta will automatically herd walkers that he passes by, but it requires that he spends a minimum of 3 steps passing them. This means he will rarely be able to herd many walkers so positioning is key here and setting him up correctly the turn before is crucial. If he is the leader you can add Scouts or Shooters, who will have an easier time herding, thanks to their longer movement range.
Note that herded is quite low on the status effect priority list, and really any other status effect will brake the herding condition (for example cripple, root and stun). CW walkers as well as special walkers are immune to herding. It's also not possible to herd human enemies.
Beta also has a small chance of gaining a charge point for each walker he herds (this is amplified by lucky), but the chance is low and nothing to depend on.
