Skyron Guide

## Characteristics of the dragon

### Strengths

* His ability to freeze, coupled with slow status, can completely deprive us of the ability to take an action
* He charges mana very quickly, sometimes he doesn't even need gems to use his skill
* Very high ACC, making it impossible to repel the statuses on the basis of RES

## Team Selection

Skyron is the most balanced dragon of all. It has no particular weaknesses. It has an average HP value as well as average damage and armor. It also doesn't have any resistances that would stand out from other dragons. However, it has a mechanism that allows you to turn off the team completely, preventing you from taking any action. In addition, the high ACC factor makes it difficult to defend against it. Dealing with this mechanism is the most important element in the fight against this dragon. To do this, theoretically, we have two options. We can equip ourselves with a character that gives immunity to all negative statuses. (Skyron cannot remove our buffs) or, theoretically, by superimposing such a number of statuses so that there are no vacancies for more. Statuses that do not fit are repelled automatically.

Heroes that cast Immunity status

I wrote theoretically because with the current base of characters, you can create a very limited number of teams that would use this mechanism, while in the future there may be characters who will expand the range of available options and the strategy will be able to be used by a wider range of players. First, we need Stribog, he is currently the only character that applies more than 2 statuses to all allies.

Heroes that apply more than 2 statuses to all allies

With Stribog in the team, we can add two characters giving two buffs to prevent the team from being excluded from the fight. This is because the number of status slots is limited to just 10, any status above that number, positive or negative, will be automatically rejected. The dragon applies a slowdown first, which with such a high ACC of the dragon has only a 15% chance of being repelled. Only then, it imposes a freeze that is overlapped with 42.5%. So even if some of our characters have 9 positive statuses, the chance that they will be frozen decreases to 6.3%. From the characters currently imposing 2 statuses, we have Taxis Niki Floki (listed above) and additionally:

Heroes that apply multiple positive statuses

Being protected against freezing, it is good to build synergy in connection with the fact of imposing such a number of positive statuses. There are characters who make great use of this fact. Here is a list of all the characters I found:

Heroes that benefits from positive statuses

As a result, there is a limited number of configurations, the most effective of which I added in part: sample compositions.

Nothing stands in the way of combining these two approaches and using characters gaining status along with immunity, especially since the latter is also a positive status. Glidor with seven or eight buffs will also deal a lot of damage. Vanness can benefit in a similar way, especially since she imposes three buffs on herself.

Of course, we can also choose a more conventional method and use the fact that Skyron is not immune to most statuses. For this, you will need to build the appropriate ACC value on the characters. It is most effective to build ACC on the display case, the leader, through the status of decreased resistance, status increased accuracy, in the main armor stats and through set bonuses. Below is a list of ACC leaders that we can use in the fight against the dragon.

ACC Leaders

The ACC leader is also Kusai, however the dragon has a color advantage over her, which causes the dragon to deal a lot of damage to her. Additionally, Kusai requires 60% ACC more than green characters to be effective in using her active.

Among the statuses that are worth paying special attention to is the decrease defense. Unfortunately, there is not a lot of choice among green heroes with the advantage of color. Among the current heroes, the following will work best:

Recomende Heroes that provide Increse Defence Status

Another status noteworthy is the vulnerability mentioned. It increases damage by another 30%, multiplying all previous bonuses. As a result, with the decrease defensive status, the damage will double. In addition to the above Mayra Cassia and Gadora, we have the following options.

Rcommended Heroes that apply vulnerability

In the case of Skyron, we have some choice in imposing the decrease ressistance status. We can also use the Vermin dragon, especially effective with Ikes, who will apply this status at the beginning of the fight, before Vermin is charged.

Heroes that apply Decrease Resistance status

It remains to choose the attacking characters, first of all, green heroes will be successful, especially those with additional bonuses from negative statuses on the enemy, such as Merlin. We have a lot to show off here as Skyron does not take our buffs off, so we can use them together with a support that would increase our damage. Here are a few of my chosen heroes for this strategy, not mentioned before:

Recommended attackers to fight Skyron

In case of adding attackers based on the ATK stats, it is worth adding Santos or Hempe, they will protect the team and increase this attribute at the same time

Naturally, these are not all the heroes that we can use in the fight against the dragon, but in my opinion they are the most effective in their groups. However, any green attacker will work. Guinevere can help to survive dragon's attacks as well as other healers, however we should limit number of healers to absolut minimum to maximize damage output

## Sample Teams

Knowing Skyron's strengths and weaknesses, and knowing which heroes will prove themselves in the fight against the dragon, and what we have at our disposal, we can choose a team. When choosing, it is worth taking into account the colors of the heroes and their interaction with each other.The best combinations on Skyron will be the following hero layouts:

* mono green squad - will make full use of the color advantage, but a large penalty for collecting mana will be applied to allies. Additionally, in this list, the dragon will attack the hero with the lowest EHP, so you should think about taking a Bohumir or an Elleani with you to force the dragon to attack these characters
* 4 +1 - Four characters should be green In this set, a character not green will attract the dragon's attention, which we can use to our advantage, if we set its DEF and HP values ​​high. Or we will choose one that will benefit from it especially thanks to the passive skill (Stribog, Nika). Green heroes will have an advantage of color, dealing increased damage, while they will have a moderate penalty for collecting mana for allies.
* 3 + 2 - In this setting, the best three green heroes should attack, and 2 of a different color act as supports, the dragon will attack a non-blue hero with a lower EHP, so all these characters should have high durability. Three heroes will have a small mana-gathering penalty for allies. However, focusing only on two colors will more than compensate for it.
* 2 + 2 + 1 - the most economical setting when it comes to collecting mana from gems, while as many as 3 characters will be taken into account when searching for the weakest target by the dragon. Therefore, it is worth adding a character dedicated to drawing the dragon's attention with a taunt or provocation, or make sure that all 3 have high EHP.

Here are some sample combinations:

## Gameplay

During the game, you need to pay special attention to the immunity or a minimum of 9 buffs on all characters before the dragon moves. Even if a dragon has no mana charged, it has a chance to recover 60% before it attacks thanks to its passive ability. For this purpose, it is worth refraining from using skills for the turn of your last character before the dragon's turn. Additionally, it is worth taking a large number of mana vials with you, they will be the most necessary potions in combat. If we use taunt or taunt, also in this case we should make sure that the status is applied before the dragon moves. Therefore, it is worth pausing for a moment before each dragon movement and considering whether everything is prepared. Then correct all the shortcomings with the help of potions. Additionally, it can be useful to synchronize the speed of your heroes. Setting all attackers to the same SPD value and supporting characters 50% higher will definitely facilitate the fight and the implementation of the strategy. Our characters will more often have five moves in a row, making this easier to apply all statuses correctly. Let's also pay attention to the choice of potions to restore mana. A small vial restores 25% of mana, medium 50%, large 75%. Economical selection of the vial to the needs will translate into the final score in the damage. I recommend the following set of potions:

The amount of mana or healing potion type should be opposite to an amount of mana gathering and healing from your party members

At the end of the fight, just before the dragon goes berserk, it is worth checking the amount of damage we have dealt to see if it is satisfactory. If not, use the remaining mana vials on the attackers to use the negative statuses on the dragon before the frenzy takes them off. After this point, the only form that can significantly increase the result is a reflection on the Taxis. If we have it and we took it, it is also worth charging mana and activating its ability. Taxis will be the first in the fight and it would be good if as many characters as possible die on his status.
