Wilder Faction Formation

The best team formations for Honor Duel are the ones formed with heroes that have great synergy. One of the units or formations that have amazing synergy is from the Wilder faction. Here is one of the best team formations for Honor Duel with the Wilder faction: 

  • Arden: Arden is an A-level hero known for his balanced abilities. His list of skills includes Force of Nature, Entangling Roots, Nature’s Resilience and Spring Thunderstorm.
  • Hewynn: Hewynn is an S-level hero known for her healing abilities. Her list of skills includes Rain Prayer, Healing Wave, Revitalize and Tranquility.
  • Granny Dahnie: Granny Dahnie is an S-level hero known for her immunity-controlling abilities. Her list of skills includes Threshold of Jade, Seed Cannon, Angry Taunt and Glimmerbloom Blessings.
  • Parisa: Parisa is the thirty-third hero on the list as an A-level hero known for her crit abilities. Her list of skills includes Floral Splendor, Floral Inspiration, Flower Power and Falling Blossom.
  • Eironn: Eironn is the fourteenth hero on the list as an S-level hero known for his balanced abilities. His list of skills includes Verdant Cyclone, Ice Spike, Tempest Guard and Howling Hurricane. 

With these heroes, Parisa will be your main damage dealer with her spectacular Ultimate, Floral Splendor which deals AoE damage to every enemy. Hewynn, who is an S Tier healer will do her job by passively healing the weakest member of your formation, while her ultimate will heal everyone when she pulls it off. Granny Dahnie as the tank will provide the adequate defense that is needed as one of the strongest heroes in the Tank class ever. Eironn is a secondary damage dealer next to Parisa who will serve as a damage enhancer of sorts. Arden being a balanced hero will do whatever he can by stunning enemies, damaging them, etc.

To enhance this unit or formation even further, utilize the tools or equipment found in the Duel Store, that increase the base stats of your heroes, enabling them to take more damage. This will be especially useful when it comes to Hewynn as she is a vulnerable healer. Thus, make sure to equip her properly with an item like the Grandmaster Crown, which increases all base stats of the hero with the item by 15%. 

Also, focus on Parisa and choose a tool that will let her Ultimate skill be used earlier and more effectively. A tool that will do that is the Fire Dance tool, which allows the hero using the tool to cast their Ultimate skill for the first time without consuming any energy, leaving it as it is for a second use and increases the damage dealt from it by 20%. The other heroes can be equipped with any base stats increasing tool like the Decaying Ring, which grants all the allies of the same faction 11% of the tool carrier’s base stats. This will be perfect, because all the heroes are from the Wilder faction, ultimately creating insane synergy.

Graveborn Faction Formation

The best team formations for Honor Duel, as mentioned before, are the ones formed with heroes that can play enhancing each other’s strengths. One of the units or formations that can do this is from the Graveborn faction. Here is one of the best team formations for Honor Duel with the Graveborn faction: 

  • Silvina: Silvina is as an A-level hero known for her damage reduction abilities. Her list of skills includes Shadow Slayer, First Strike, Blade Vortex and Shield of Light.
  • Carolina: Carolina is an S-level hero known for her freezing abilities. Her list of skills includes Frozen Grave, Freezing Nova, Snowball Witchery and Ice Vortex. 
  • Salazer: Salazer is an A-level hero known for his offensive damaging abilities. His list of skills includes Rain of Blades, Enraptured Whip, Spirit Shackles and Soul Drench.
  • Thoran: Thoran is an S-level hero known for his reviving abilities. His list of skills includes Soul Retaliation, Soul Plunder, Resurrection and Soul Pact.
  • Igor: Igor is an S-level hero known for his balanced abilities. His list of skills includes Funereal Ring, Ghastly Explosion, Spectre Guard and Horror Strike.  

With these heroes, Silvina will be your main damage dealer with her amazing Ultimate, which deals damage to the targeted enemy with the most energy and depletes their energy completely. Carolina will be the defense with her freezing skills while Igor being balanced with his tombstones will be the secondary defense. Salazer and Thoran will be secondary damage dealers, dealing copious amounts of damage while letting Silvina take the lead.

To enhance this unit or formation even further, utilize tools or equipment that increase the base stats of your heroes. Also, you will need to procure two specific tools, used for Silvina, to make this truly one of the best formations for Honor Duel. The first tool you’ll need is the Pale Crown which we recommend putting on Carolina. This tool allows an allied Silvina’s First Strike skill to be increased by 2.2 times and each assist or kill that the carrier makes grants an extra attempt to cast First Strike, which then prioritizes attacking the weakest enemy. 

The second tool is the Mask of Fury, which you need to use with Silvina. The tool increases 100% ATK or attack power and reduces the haste of the carrier by 50, which will allow Silvina to do an overpowered amount of damage passively and with her ultimate.
