Orvadal the Lost King guide: skills, build and team roles
Overview
Orvadal the Lost King is a Rare Water Melee Attacker from the Stonehearts Faction in Invokers: Titan Legacy. He hits single targets hard and slows them down. Snow Drift casts Combo SPD Down, Biting Tundra brings Snow Drift back sooner whenever it lands a critical hit, and his Ultimate, Frozen Avenger, hits for 965% ATK at Max Level.
His damage scales from ATK. Fully Awakened and before Gear, Orvadal has 723 ATK, 506 DEF and 7,128 HP, with 60 Accuracy. His DEF is low who fights at the front, so he needs a Tank and a healer to stay alive.
Only nine Invokers cast Skill Recovery Up, and Orvadal casts it on himself with Frozen Avenger: 15% for 14 seconds at Max Level, or 25% for 17 seconds if the hit is a critical hit. Combo SPD Down slows an enemy's Combo Attacks, which is useful against fast attackers in Arena.
His Combo SPD Down is 14% at best, so it slows enemies rather than stopping them. He has no healing, Shields or Taunt.
Skills To Prioritize
Rime Headbutt is a ten-second filler hit with no extra effect, so it needs the least attention.
Snow Drift hits one enemy and casts Combo SPD Down. It is 9% for 8 seconds at Level 1, 12% at Level 6, 12 seconds long from Level 8 and 14% at Level 10. The cooldown falls from 27 seconds to 23 at Level 10 and 22 at Max Level. It needs Accuracy to land.
Biting Tundra hits one enemy twice, and each critical hit reduces Snow Drift's cooldown. The reduction is 3 seconds at Level 1, 4 seconds at Level 6 and 5 seconds at Level 10, so two critical hits at Level 10 bring Snow Drift back 10 seconds sooner. The cooldown falls from 28 seconds to 24 at Level 10 and 23 at Max Level.
Frozen Avenger hits one enemy for 482.5% ATK at Level 1, 907.1% at Level 10 and 965% at Max Level. It casts a Skill Recovery Up buff on him, 10% at Level 1 and 15% at Level 10, or 15% and 25% if the hit is a critical hit. The Mana cost falls from 900 to 850 at Level 8 and 800 at Max Level.
If you want Orvadal to slow enemies more often, upgrade Biting Tundra first, as each critical hit brings Snow Drift back 5 seconds sooner at Level 10, then Snow Drift for its 14% Combo SPD Down. If you want him to hit harder, upgrade Frozen Avenger first, as its damage almost doubles from Level 1 to Level 10.
Build And Team Support
Build Crit Rate to around 75-80%, then as much Crit DMG as the build allows, because Biting Tundra only shortens Snow Drift's cooldown on critical hits. Snow Drift needs Accuracy to land, so put Accuracy on your Chestplate and your Flask, and add more after that as the build allows. Skill RECOV brings Snow Drift back sooner.
For Relic Sets, Crit Rate Relics make his critical hits more reliable, Crit Damage Relics and Predator raise how hard they hit, and Accuracy Relics help Snow Drift land. Fury Relics add Skill RECOV, which brings back Snow Drift and Biting Tundra sooner.
Pair him with a Tank to keep enemies off him, and a healer to keep him alive while he fights at the front.
Arena, Bosses And Spires
In Arena, Snow Drift's Combo SPD Down slows an enemy's Combo Attacks, and a critical hit from Biting Tundra brings it back sooner. Be wary of enemy Invokers with Immunity or Skills that cleanse debuffs, as they can stop Combo SPD Down from landing. His low DEF also means a fast burst can reach him before he casts.
Against Dark Omnissi, who wants Combo SPD Down and Accuracy, Snow Drift casts Combo SPD Down at 14% for 12 seconds at Level 10, and his native Manashock Tolerance covers one of her two Corruptions.
Against Sedula, Snow Drift casts Combo SPD Down, which slows the Combo Attacks that drain Ultimate and Titan Mana, and Frozen Avenger's 965% ATK hit at Max Level lands inside her 60-second window. Sedula changes Element every day, and Orvadal has Elemental Advantage on the days she is Fire.
In the Water Spire, Orvadal hits single targets while the team keeps him alive. Pair him with Invokers of a similar Rarity: Rufin, a Rare Water Support, casts ATK Up on eight allies and a Shield, Judicator Kalistia, an Epic Water Tank, casts Taunt and heals, and Almea, an Epic Water Melee Attacker, heals and casts ATK Down and Freeze.
Awaken
Awakening boosts an Invoker's stats significantly. Bonuses from Relics, Accessories, the Trophy Room, Tactics and Titan leader bonuses apply to base stats and Awakening stats alike, so unlocking the Awakening nodes is critical to maximise Orvadal's potential.
Unlocking each Titan node at Star 2, 4 and 6 adds a second to Titan Invokation, taking the total from 12 seconds to 15.
