Thanks for coming cover! This is Amodeus. Today’s Dungeon Hunter Champion is Obelisk the Dark Dragon Guard...

The Dragon Guards are great as a rule with Obelisk the Dark Dragon Guard being one of my favorite mid- to late- game champions. The reason I like him so much has everything to do with his kit so “Let’s break him down””

Obelisk’s auto attack, Dragon’s Favor, is common to all the dragon guards. The amazing part of Dragon’s Favor is that it comes with a passive that applies the Undying buff to any ally whose health drops below 30%. So, if you are taking a beating in Ascended Raids…and seriously…who isn’t? Then this basic auto attack can give you breathing room every 45 seconds.

If preventing you from wiping automatically wasn’t enough for you to build the dark dragon guard then how about his First activated skill Demoralizing Blow…this arc style aoe attack also applies Lowers Attack that can potentially be used every 3 seconds. For me, the lowering attack debuff was crucial for breaking into the Ascended content and for a lot of mid-game players this is what is preventing their teams from being consistent in Ascended Raids. Now right now we are talking about a unit that combines death avoidance mechanics as a passive while lowering attack damage with his first skill. Maybe that’s not enough…

In that case look at his second skill, Concussion Slam. This is a JUMP attack that applies an AOE Lowers Atk Speed debuff on landing making him perfect for waves, blitz, and raids. Is he worth it yet? Let’s recap, he has a death avoidance mechanic as a passive, aoe lowers attack on his first skill, aoe lowers attack speed on his seconds skill that also avoids obstacles, rushes and cc. This is alll potentially available every 3 seconds. But wait there’s more…

His final skill, Megaton Stomp, is an AOE stun that last longer based on each Debuff on the enemy. So you are probably wondering what his drawback is. To be fair his synergy trait is awful with a 25% def buff for dark champs, but you know what? I’ll give that a pass since as I failed to call out ALL OF HIS SKILLS SCALE ON DEFENSE and while the dragon guard’s damage was nerfed in Update 3 he was never going to be your goto dps in the Ascended Content anyway.

So how do we gear him and where can he be used? Built properly he can be used everywhere in the game as of right now. I prefer to use him in Arena, Blitz, and Ascended Raids. Let’s take him into Elder Drake 12 to show him off before we get into my gear build.

If you want to get his skills up every 3 seconds he has to be built on adept and if you don’t have the subs for accuracy, hp, and def you want then start with precise and aim towards sturdy. I was pretty fortunate as you will see with a new bracer that had a great accuracy roll.
