Is Swarmspeaker Zyclic good?

The Dark Elves' Faction Unity legendary, a nuker who snowballs off debuffs, kills and enemies without buffs. Insectoid Feast gains damage for every debuff enemies receive, and with Unity allies its kills raise his ATK, reset the cooldown and fill his Turn Meter, while Ravening Multitude grants an extra turn on a kill or adds a hit on every enemy if the target survives.

His passive ignores DEF on unbuffed targets, and with enough Dark Elves he blocks enemy buffs each round and cuts the damage your team takes. That makes him strong in Arena and wave content, but bosses without minions give his kill scaling little to feed on.

Strengths

  • Damage scales with debuffs and kills
  • Extra turn or AoE follow-up on Ravening Multitude
  • DEF ignore on unbuffed targets
  • Team damage reduction with Dark Elves allies
  • Unblockable buff steal on his A1

Weaknesses

  • Needs Dark Elves allies for his Unity bonuses
  • Kill scaling fades against bosses without minions
  • Hydra and dungeons are his weaker areas
