Best Archer combos with Edward the Confessor

Edward the Confessor appears in 11 ranked Archer combos.

1. 137 FMB Warden · Edward the Confessor · Spectral Reaper
   Warden (X06), Edward the Confessor (S01) and Spectral Reaper (X03) score 72.59 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Warden is the shield: the damage reduction and staying power buy the rounds the plan needs — carries 116% of damage reduction across its kit, and takes the front as the one built to survive the opening exchange. Edward the Confessor is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — King's Crossbow applies Suppress on a 35% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Spectral Reaper is the win condition, bringing 67% of the lineup's expected damage: Tamashi-kusari puts 742% into one enemy squad on a 35% 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 Warden’s Aspect of the Eagle produces trigger-rate boosts, the exact trigger Edward the Confessor and Spectral Reaper both wait on; Warden’s Aspect of the Tiger produces extra basic attacks, the exact trigger Spectral Reaper waits on; Edward the Confessor’s King's Crossbow applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight, so Spectral Reaper swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: Edward the Confessor (S01) is the era weak point -- the enemy will aim at the oldest squad; raw damage reaches only about 10% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. How these scores work →

William the Conqueror is the win condition, bringing 62% of the lineup's expected damage: One Arrow One Kill puts 641% into one enemy squad on a 50% 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 Warden’s Aspect of the Eagle produces trigger-rate boosts, the exact trigger Edward the Confessor and William the Conqueror both wait on; Edward the Confessor’s King's Crossbow applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight, so William the Conqueror swings into a line that cannot answer; Warden raises William the Conqueror’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own.

   Hellfire is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 60% of damage amplification across its kit, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are. Eidolon is the second amplifier -- with two heroes raising the output, the carry hits far above its own numbers: carries 140% of damage amplification across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Edward the Confessor is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — King's Crossbow applies Suppress on a 35% roll, and stays in the back, where the range-3 skills still touch the enemy front line. The lineup works because Edward the Confessor’s King's Crossbow applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight, so Eidolon swings into a line that cannot answer; Hellfire raises Eidolon’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: no hero here feeds another one's trigger; raw damage reaches only about 5% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster.

   Ragnar (X12 · paid), Al Faith (S01) and Edward the Confessor (S01) score 58.40 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Ragnar is the win condition, bringing 84% of the lineup's expected damage: Pillage puts 640% into all enemy squads every time it fires, and takes the front, able to both absorb the opening rounds and heal through them.
