    • Level 101: Explosive damage is raised to 270% damage.

2. Tidus – Shadowmane

AFK Arena 1.27 Patch Notes Tidus - Shadowmane Introduction
Tidus – Shadowmane

The new hero, Tidus is going to be a strong unit, moving fast, dealing burst damage as well as AOE. It is important to make the enemy move after Frenzied Strikes, so better not pair him with someone like Tasi, who makes the foes fall asleep. Here are his Abilities in detail:

    • Level 161: Final pounce deals 220% damage.
  • Frenzied Strikes: Tidus slices the enemy standing in front of him in a vicious five-stage attack, dealing 60% damage per attack to the target. Due to profuse blood loss, the enemy target suffers 65% damage per second over 8 seconds whenever they move.
    • Level 21: Damage of each attack is raised to 70% damage per attack.
    • Level 101: Blood loss lasts for 12 seconds when moving.
    • And Level 181: Damage of each attack is raised to 80% damage per attack.
  • Battle Howl: Tidus let’s out a ferocious howl that terrifies his enemies, causing them to flee his from his vicinity for 5 seconds. After howling, Tidus’ movement speed is increased by 35% and his Attack Rating is increased by 20% for 10 seconds.
    • Level 121: Attack Rating is increased up to 30%.
    • Level 201: Nearby allies also receive a movement speed and Attack Rating increase.
  • Savagery: Tidus viciously and persistently attacks an enemy whose health is lower than 50% of its maximum until they are slain. While using this ability, the Attack Rating of Tidus’ normal attacks is increased by 35%.
    • Level 141: Life Leech level is raised by 40 while pursuing a weakened enemy.
