Notes
Wanderer is still first for early burst, but the guide notes his meta value has fallen later.
In S3, Wanderer clones can conflict with Shadow Priest shields by wasting the damage-reduction buff.
Storm Maiden damage is higher with Titans Might, but Knight Glory helps her survive until Lilia releases in S4.
