Loneblade Riab is a Rare Force Attack champion from the Sylvan Watchers faction, an assassin who joined as part of the Gnut fusion. His kit offers universal value against single targets through layered debuffs and a passive that rewards attacking weakened foes.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Defense and Damage Softening: His A2, Dagger Storm, attacks a single enemy twice, with the first hit carrying a 50% chance (65% booked) of placing a 30% Decrease DEF debuff and the second a 50% chance (65% booked) of a 15% Weaken debuff, both for 2 turns — useful for optimizing damage against Clan Boss.
Self-Buffing Crit: Before attacking with his A2, he grants himself a 15% Increase C.RATE buff for 2 turns, letting him build for damage with only 85% Crit Rate needed.
Debuff-Punishing Passive: His passive deals an extra 5% damage against targets under Decrease DEF or Weaken, rising to 10% if both are active, rewarding sequencing his own debuffs before following up.
Key Weaknesses
Poor Spider and Iron Twins Fit: His Spider (1) and Iron Twins (1) ratings show his kit offers essentially nothing in those fights, and his debuff chances remain moderate even when booked.
Riab rates best in Clan Boss (6) and Arena (6), making him a passable single-target damage option for early Faction Wars and Clan Boss progression.
