Yeah, Azaka as a champion, ! You did it, that's great !!

I'm one of the the people who grew fond of her and requested it, so thank you for listening to us !

Even better, she's a kickass Weretiger, my favorite race ! ( (Hint : look my profile picture...)

YOU DAMN ROCK, CODENAME !!!

Will the gear for this champion be in event chests or in all chests?

"Azaka is unlocked by completing ... the end of the Tomb of Annihilation campaign..."
"...whose equipment gets added to regular gold & silver chests once you collect them."

Everything is in the link provided above... hehe.

I really liked this format of the review of the champion.
It would be very cool if every new champion was accompanied
such review

[Calisthra]

Too Cool! This removes any doubt as to how the mechanics for the champion will work. I'll second what creedgag said about a page like this for each champion.

Keep up the good work folks!

I'm guessing we don't need to complete Tomb of the Nine Gods, just the variants with her like the haunted jungle and poor guidance?

"... but we've increased the level cap for Champions this week as well ..."
does that mean we have "more skills" already, or do we have to wait for todays update?

She's unlocked from the hardest variants, so you do need to complete Tomb of the Nine Gods and the variant there.

Today's update.

I appreciate the new champion, and it's awesome that Azaka falls into an under-utilized benchslot, but I'd like to point out that there needs to be greater diversity in champions fitting into the 4 major roles -- core buffers (Nayeli, Celeste, Calliope), secondary buffers (Makos, Asharra), Tanks, and DPS -- and these roles need more equal distribution across the bench slots. As it stands, multiple benchslots are essentially irreplaceable because there are no comparable options in the other slots. Meanwhile, champions like Jarlaxle and Delina need to be completely rethought -- they offer mediocre dps and negligible benefits to the party's performance.

In an ideal world, I'd wish for a complete overhaul of buff auras, upgrades, and DPS progression curves, such that the attacks of all champions remains relevant all the way to the end. I'm not a fan of late-game 100-200% damage upgrades for heroes you *KNOW* won't even be doing 0.01% (or even 0.00001%) of the group's total damage.

Who better, azaka or stoki?

[Captain_Narol]

Hard to tell, I don't think anyone has unlocked Azaka yet...

One of the few people who has unlocked azaka said she's new main dps. That said, emphasise 'few' - expect Azaka's procession pt2 to be at approximately zero completed for a few weeks.

Edit: to help people benchmark - somebody on discord mentioned they have all heroes at max gear (ie all shiny), all possible golds, ilvl 300-500 and they can't *quite* finish Azaka pt2. So thats something to aim for...

This missions only for donators? Because without money you can't obtain any golden epic in this game. And can't stack enought dps for this missions.

The missions are a goal to work towards.

As you collect more gear and favor, and when we release more Champion level upgrades and the Tier 4 Kelemvor blessings, it will get easier to reach Azaka.
