Best Archer combos with Belisarius

Belisarius appears in 18 ranked Archer combos.

  1. 58 Robin Hood, front rowPoison Master, middle rowBelisarius, back row Robin Hood · Poison Master · Belisarius
    Robin Hood (X21), Poison Master (X10) and Belisarius (X12) score 73.57 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

    Robin Hood is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: strips 300% of enemy Might, Resistance and damage in total, and takes the front, able to both absorb the opening rounds and heal through them. Poison Master is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Deadly Virus applies Suppress on a 50% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Belisarius brings a second damage line worth 42% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Hunting Down puts 279% into all enemy squads on a 70% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Robin Hood’s Swift Ranger produces tempo, the exact trigger Belisarius’s Riding Waves waits on; Poison Master’s Spreading Poison produces dot, the exact trigger Belisarius’s Hunting Down waits on; Robin Hood produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Poison Master’s Spreading Poison waits on. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 19% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; a mid-era lineup anchored by Robin Hood (X21). Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. How these scores work →

    Tomyris (X28), Belisarius (X12) and Darius (X13) score 73.51 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

    Tomyris is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Vanguard Defense applies Taunt for 1 round on a 80% roll, and takes the front to pull enemy attacks inward -- exactly where that belongs. Belisarius brings a second damage line worth 42% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Hunting Down puts 279% into all enemy squads on a 70% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Darius is the win condition, bringing 55% of the lineup's expected damage: Disdain puts 332% into 2 enemy squads on a 40% roll, and stays in the back, where the range-3 skills still touch the enemy front line. The lineup works because Darius’s Disdain produces dot, the exact trigger Belisarius’s Hunting Down waits on; Belisarius’s Ripping Apart produces dot, the exact trigger Darius’s King of all Kings waits on; Tomyris’s Vanguard Defense applies Taunt and takes a squad out of the fight for 1 round, so Darius swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 19% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; damage is spread across the enemy line rather than focused on one squad. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. How these scores work →

Belisarius brings a second damage line worth 40% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Hunting Down puts 279% into all enemy squads on a 70% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Lilith is the win condition, bringing 58% of the lineup's expected damage: Infatuated Shadow puts 450% into one enemy squad on a 50% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Lilith’s Poison Needle produces dot, the exact trigger Belisarius’s Hunting Down waits on; Tomyris produces control effects, the exact trigger Lilith’s Pandora's Box waits on; Tomyris’s Vanguard Defense applies Taunt and takes a squad out of the fight for 1 round, so Lilith swings into a line that cannot answer.

    Tomyris is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Vanguard Defense applies Taunt for 1 round on a 80% roll, and takes the front to pull enemy attacks inward -- exactly where that belongs. Poison Master adds a second source of control, so the lock rarely has an off round: Deadly Virus applies Suppress on a 50% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Belisarius is the win condition, bringing 94% of the lineup's expected damage: Hunting Down puts 279% into all enemy squads on a 70% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it.

Eselfred is the win condition, bringing 45% of the lineup's expected damage: Lady of the Mercians puts 522% into one enemy squad on a 65% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-4 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Robin Hood’s Swift Ranger produces tempo, the exact trigger Belisarius’s Riding Waves and Eselfred’s Fortified Line of Attack both wait on; Robin Hood raises Eselfred’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 35% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; no one hero clearly carries, so the damage is easier to interrupt.

    Leonidas is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Sharp Spear applies Silence on a 40% roll, and takes the front, able to both absorb the opening rounds and heal through them. Belisarius brings a second damage line worth 39% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Hunting Down puts 279% into all enemy squads on a 70% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Darius is the win condition, bringing 51% of the lineup's expected damage: Disdain puts 332% into 2 enemy squads on a 40% roll, and stays in the back, where the range-3 skills still touch the enemy front line. The lineup works because Darius’s Disdain produces dot, the exact trigger Belisarius’s Hunting Down waits on; Belisarius’s Ripping Apart produces dot, the exact trigger Darius’s King of all Kings waits on; Leonidas’s Sharp Spear applies Silence and takes a squad out of the fight, so Darius swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: Leonidas (S00) is the era weak point -- the enemy will aim at the oldest squad; raw damage reaches only about 21% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. How these scores work →
