LIVE TAKEOVERS GUILD BOSS AND GEAR DUNGEON right now live on TWITCH www.twitch.tv/fastidious_gg also, my apologies for the Banner Text typos for Elddr and Brokkir! Won't happen again :)
Sorry, Elddr is a beast in Glacier gear. Get his HP up to 70k and his attack goes over 15000 when deployed and he gets very nice boosts to damage from shields. My Elddr absolutely deletes AMR. With shield healers he is a big attack bonus to the team as well! Not sure how the talent works, but like I said. He's one of my hardest hitting fighters. The damage really is there on him.
This is what I appreciate so much about WoR. A lot of the epics are not only viable, they're meta. It's not just about the next new leggo. Great vid, and your site is looking incredible.
I just started with WoR a few days ago. After about 80 of the blue summons out popped my first Lego and I was lucky and happy to see Valkyra join my oh so new and underwhelming team. She's a powerhouse already and I can only imagine how much stronger she'll be as my account grows. I fully expected to pull a less than great first lego. Thanks for all the content and your website (I checked that first before I saw this video), keep it up!
About elddr. He was my 3rd lord and I souldstoned him imidiatly and I use him everywhere. He hits 450k alone gets even more consistent when I have vortex. Pulled 120mil in gb2 apoc1. He is one of the 2 fighters in the game along wrath who can tank waves and one shot them.. just talking from experience
I like it when people talk about synergy from hero combinations: you are right to mention Valk and Gwendolyn. Gwendolyn is also the best healer for King Harz. He has several goodies tucked away in his kit that activate when shielded, including a 20% DEF increase (his DEF is lower than Brokkir's, but I assume Lords will always be getting their own 15% Lord attribute boost, which is why their base stats are always just a little lower than the best non-Lords), 30% Damage Reduction, and a chance to CC enemies by hitting them. One of his passives even increases the size of her shields to him by 60%, so at this point, a decently-fast Gwendolyn basically gives him most of the things that make the various Epic Northern tanks individually useful except Block count. Finally, HER Talent increases the size of the shields that he is putting out with HIS Lord skill and Ultimate. The degree of comboing between him and her definitely elevates him as a tank above where he performs standalone. I'm not sure that he ever passes Brokkir, because Brokkir can benefit from some of the same buffs that Harz provides to himself, but the Gwendolyn-Harz combo is probably more impactful than any "actual" Bond skill except what Silas gets from Vierna. The biggest complaint I have with Harz compared to other Lego tanks, is that his A3 Awakening should increase his Block count (maybe by 1-2 while shielded?) instead of boosting his damage. I don't have an A5 Harz yet, but I'm pretty sure that what it currently does is double the size of his self-shield if he was previously shielded (a la Gwendolyn), and a 340k HP self-shield (reinforced by 30% damage reduction and 20% DEF increase) probably qualifies as a reusable cheat-death... it just needs the micromanaging of timing the ult instead of being once-only automatic. The Gwendolyn-Harz combo is basically what killed using Northerners for me in VRNM, because it was "too good". Vortex can also provide Harz shields when over-healing, and any healer can over-heal-into-shields if they've got the right artifact... but Gwendolyn guarantees the shield. I also think that it may be worth mentioning a possible Gwendolyn-Elddr pairing, but I don't have Elddr myself. On another note, I really like the overall structure of this video, because you still provide use cases for the mid-tier heroes instead of falling into the Great-or-Trash dichotomy.
I have no idea where my account would be without Midan (while not having Elowyn). She's so important for me that I would have put her at least at top 9
Estrid definitly should be on the list , she can slay everyone,cost 14 full upgrade,2 range tile,aoe damage,she increase is speed in ultimate,defence piercing,try it,she is a beast.
What a great and time to do this….people need this. How many in guild have no 25 keen wisdom on delores…..um mine lol. With new players, keep doing what you do! Love you!
A lot of good info, especially for a little more than casual player, like myself, I'm understanding the game better now looking forward for the whole series
Valkyra, she is amazing, her range goes even farther than her hit box shows after an ult and she can resurrect other characters. One of the best in the game.
Valkyra is my favourite northerner. She was my first lego I got and carried me incredibly hard through campaign, until I got Khamet. I really liked her kit and used her when I could, even though she wasn't really meta at that time, then new content dropped and she got soft buffed through it, so I use her even more now
Northerners. Only one who you need three mages to complete the stupid faction trails. But my favorite northerner has to be Valk because of that INSANE range she gets. She has been a big lifesaver and I've gotten a dup of her and it makes her range even better. She's helped me so much in void rift!
i actually have a top 3 on those northerners: vortex because he saved my early game and i still use it in mid game, Maul because since i've upped him, my achievements went to the roof on GR3 but my preferred is marri because now that she is awakened 5, she is absolutely a beast....
I’m fairly confident in this weekends banner after three months of saving I’m going to pull one of these ancient exclusives you kinda forget exists, like Elddr or Claw. I’m making funeral arrangements for 90 ancient crystals as we speak
Harpun can self-sustain cause he can generate shield on hit, meaning he's the only platform unit helping your maul in northerner 10 11 and 12 if you don't have valkyra or ardea
This is a hard one as this is indeed a great faction, but since I don't have Ardea, my vote goes to Valkyra. She was one of my early legendary heroes, and I think her intro video is one of, if not *the* best in the game (with a nod to Cuke, no less). Her long range is just stunning in so much content, and she is at once beautiful and all business, with that incredible and sustained aoe damage. Oh and I should mention that she is my hero with the highest BP at this time. I just love using her in most content.
Even tho i have like nearly all the heroes in northeners like harz ardea valk and many more my favorite hero of the faction and also in the whole game is nocturne. Since the day i pulled him early game i used nocturne on everywhere. He was there when i first cleared void rift nightmare he was there when i first cleared nm4 50k he was there when i cleared gr2-21 which is the very first gear raid i managed to max out. Even tho i had heroes like a3 hex for magic damage or even when i use ghan ardea valeria for st arena i still add nocturne to the mix i still used him, still use him and love every part of his kit. His range his true damage never failed me. There is even a joke in my guild that whenever a new content comes people ask me if nocturne is viable since i always put him first on my teams :D I actually waited for a "most used hero" section in my yearly wor video so i could show off how much i used nocturne but sadly it wasnt there lol. My tip for a new and mid game players.. use him you will never get dissapointed. ID:5129561(50037)
I have a bit of a counter-point to your Eldyyr take. Eldyyr is GREAT at being a tank without being a tank. Any of those fights in void rift where Tanks get rocks dropped on them? Eldyyr can tank a lane AND does enough damage he's going to pick off attackers. I use him all over Void Rift and challenge PVE stages where you need a unit that can take hits and also damage people. He isn't flashy, but he makes a lot of stages easier in subtle ways.
He is great for Void Rift, however there's a few stages Isolde is better still. Her and Harz are also better in a lot of other content. Below Gwendolyn and Nocturne is a choice for sure though lol.
They did Falcia dirty. Her dps should be comparable or better than salazar, but the lack of self-sustain, and her ult not switching target or aoe, and without her a1 is what drove her off the ground. I proposed a new faction, where lorewise, its members are freelance huntsmen and bounty hunters. Their lord bonus would be giving them a small amount of damage bonus, and lifesteal for every hit landed, but the stack cap is very high, but the stacks loses if not constantly fighting. This allows obscure legos to have a chance to shine, especially those one trick ponies like Lucious, Kai, and Falcia to have a place on the meta, becauee lorewise, those 3 doesnt really have a set faction as home, like the north folks at fort backlast, or the unified watchguard. Theyre basicallu those folks who will hunt, for justice and vengence, as long as you gave the right price
Mail has to be my favorite, I remember when I first started, I didn’t like his look, and thought he was way expensive. Almost a year in, he’s incredible
Brokkir is my favourite Northerner. Arrived early and hence you can imagine, how useful he has been to a Newbie. - Him not dying was my most fascinating discovery. Simply love him.... - Just cleared GR2 / 19 easily as he held oneside.... along with Valderon, who didn't need ANY help demolishing there other side, without your famed sweaty techniques :) - Video on my channel.... as I LMAO while doing it.... Had been putting off clearing this for a month now.... & realised, I had all the heroes to easily do it.... I almost wrote Vortex because I use him with Elowyn anywhere.... in any team.... But Brokkir was a notch better for impossible situations. Cheers !
@jerechotan3784 yes, I know he is esso. But he needs duality with northern. Also, Bravo figuring out who I was talking about as I did leave out one whole letter.
Valkyra is one of my first heroes. I was super sad when I got 2 extra dupes of her on 1+1. Now she is my first A4, and since they released GR4, I love her even more. Use her in Exp raid, Gold Raid, Melee Insignia farming and ofc GR4. 5490964(50054)
Another cool list, pun intended. Oof on that Sadie ranking. She is my most awakened legendary, and has one of my highest BP. Sad to see her regarded so low. Double oof on the Falcia ranking. Love her look. I'm a huge Witcher fan. She was my top DPS everywhere for a while. But I pulled the likes of Arrogance and Silas some time after and her use rate dropped. Aveline has a great name. My favorite Aveline is from Dragon Age 2. There was this one companion mission with Aveline that still ranks as one of my favorite in the entire franchise. Midan and Estrid are ranked kind of low in my opinion. Midan's utlity and healing combination are pretty useful in many parts of the game. And isn't Estrid's defense break the best in the game? At the very least I would've ranked up above Krodor, arguably top 10. Goldlague of the Silver Shield. 2nd best free hero in the game. Golly Miss Marri. Best free hero in the game. Viable in early, mid, late, and maybe end game. Good in PvE and PvP alike. Such a well designed hero and accessible hero. Valkyra was my second ever legendary. What a beautiful looking model. What a kickass cinematic. And by the way, her kit isn't too bad either. Awesome, awesome hero.
I agree with everything except Sadie. She doubles all my healers healing an I'm not sure if it's because of her exclusive artifact or what but I posted photos in my guild of her healing side by side with all other healers on my codex which is ss plus and she triples 4 of my other healers healing and doubles my vortex's healing. She however is a3 with her exclusive stage 1. Not sure if it's worth some testing by someone smarter than me but my heros gear is not bad mostly all pieces ancient Invig with either calamity or war lord or life force and immortal.
I do not have Ardea, so could not try her in gb2, but what makes her s+ there? She can not stay low hp to have higher damage because she would die, bleeds are not required and chaotic and northerners are not good factions for gb2.
MY FAVORITE FACTION! Love Northerners. And I still have love for Dagna. You bumped up my need for Nocturne. Prioritizing Nocturne over Artemis. Never stopped wanting Brokkir and Gwendolyn. Elddr I use in almost everything. Valkyria is growing on me as she keeps proving that she's an MVP. Vortex is always proving that he's the best healer. Aveline I actually use more than other Defenders. Can't wait for Glacius! Overall , though I'm going to say that my #1 pick for Northerners is Elddr. Like I said; I use Elddr in almost everything. He's my Go-to Tank. Forever Knight 5200531(50048)
@fastidious_gg Great video fasti, love the break downs but i disagree with you on Eldrr. I got him early and maxed him and almsot felt bad cuz u gave him rank 12 lol. As a new FTP i felt like i had messed up cuz I dont wana spend my resources poorly. I see some peeps in the comments challenging u on him so.... lol. I use him all the time.
When you sleep tonight look out your window Lock the doors and windows Call the cops Anything you can do You will atone for putting maul and marri above nocturne
@@anthonymatos9914 hes "good" i use him alot but he just doesn't feel like an ancient exclusive lord which are suppose to be the rarest most top tier heroes in the game
@@anthonymatos9914 He is very good, a buff would not go amiss though, he's arguably the weakest ancient exclusive lord. Northerners generally get used in content to help with tanking, and I find he often isn't good enough for this role, while Isolde is. Whether due to him not being tanky enough or having 1 less block. And his damage output is pretty bad. Purely single target, not massive numbers, no range, no cc. He doesn't really provide a lot beyond his lord bonus.
Elddr is my favourite northerner (he is also the only Lego Lord I ever opened in the game since I started in Oct), I don’t have many good fighters and after testing against my other “good” fighter Salazar Elddr outputs more dmg and slightly everyone on the team. I also like Sadie a lot, I use her in pvp with a northerner team, I beat out a lot of Valerya teams (which i also don’t have) nyx codex, gr2 etc… 5704026(50068)
Favourite northerner has got to be olague just because he’s free for everyone pretty early in the game and outshines most Lego tanks still . 5602862(50070)
Vortex is my fav. He was my first healer and carried me through early/mid game. Love the range. Still use him whenever I can. Valk is a close 2nd. 6844321(50091)
Super excited for the new mage. I need that 3rd one. 6441334(50084) Favorite hero of the north is definitely Valk. I've even used her in gr3! She's so awesome, and especially if you get her artifact. She self generates the shields. It just don't get better in my book
It's gotta be Ardea. She's not only my favorite northerner, she's my favorite hero of them all. Her damage + range combo are unparalleled, and she says fun quotes too lol. 5757420(50066)
4095661(50010) Olague/Isolde combo. Valkyra and Maul are great, but I don't remember using anyone more than Olauge early on, and even now after a year. Oh how Lightlocke has fell from grace. He was SSS and then in 1 patch he was never used again lol. You can handle right side in faction trial with just Nocturne, Olague and Vortex. Left side can be done with Marri and Maul, but you need to use that 3rd mage just to get the 3rd star. That's a silly requirement Moonton.
For me it's Valkyra, I needed her so much for quite a while, for GR dungeon 1 and pulled her on the banner this weekend. Not even on the divines that I pulled, but from normal 2x, it was crazy. Even more so, next day I got her exclusive artifact so yeah, she has quite a story for me. Also the UID: 7300516(50104)
6390429(50079) Valkyria was the first legendary I pulled - she's my powerhouse for so many things. I will say - she doesn't target airborne units unless her ultimate is going - that's a very small sad point.
4644857(50004). Elddr is my man of the hour. Very versatile as both a beefy boy like abomination or a solid single target dps. He is also a very strong lord with a lord skill and an ultimate that benefits his faction members.
Great list! I sadly only have one legendary northerner. My favorite northerner, though would be Maul. He just brings so much from good damage as an epic to crowd control and he’s the only reason I was able to beat gear 2-19. I’ve also always had a thing for the trident. Getting him to A5 was huge for me and he’s been a mainstay on my teams for a while. UID: 5945513(50065)
Favorite northerner is Olague. The man is a wall period. Pair him up with Harz and or Vortex and you have yourself a fortress. Thank you for your hard work Fasti. 7777053(50105)
as a new player, I only have a handful of the northerners. and for me vortex and olague have been so clutch in so many areas. Olague helped me push AMR further then I had been able to. ID: 9768948(50116) Also wish I had seen this before I 6 stared and A5 harpun but he was like the only marksman I had
Falcia and Elldir have to be the 2 most disappointing heroes in the game for me. Man I wanted them to be good together and the DMG just is not there... If I get jeera and miss out on the pope maybe I'll see if the 3 can carry the DMG in Gb2/1
I'm so happy to hear someone else echo my thoughts on Elddr. My guild keeps trying to gaslight me into thinking he's good, but he's so niche. I use him (as a lord only) in content where i have ardea and/or valk and need to deal dmg, which isn't a ton of content. Most of the time when I'm running Northerners, they're there mostly to be meat shields, and in those instances, I'm much better off running Harz so him and Brokkir are just a little bit thicker. UID is 5769825(50069). Favorite Northerner is Ardea, and it's not even close. I was SO pumped to pull her, cuz I know how good she is...but now I can't stop. Considering I just got her off Iovar's banner, it's kind of crazy that she's A2 already. I'm totally fine with more of her coming home though.
My favorite Northerner hero is Maul. I don't have all the great heroes of the Northerner but he helped me through hard levels with his incredible ultimate and his range aoe. 3485226(50008)
UID: 4214910 SERVER: 50011 Oddly enough, for all the northern heroes I currently have, i (by a mile) get the most placement use from Elddr. His HP is high enough that with his skills, he sustains himself in the fight. And his damage is comparable to some of my best nightmare fighters without even maining attack % on all 3 gear. Honestly I love him for what he's done for me. Carries me through void rift nightmare. Helped immensely in trials and campaign. And is a part of one of my GVG teams. With Lunacy Visor he's fantastic!
2858126(49003) Falcia and Ardea are my favourite as the best looking heroes. Sucks that I don't own either, lol Elddr is definitely great for PVE especially in void rift. He's made my runs way easier since I pulled him and skilled him up. Hits hard AF too.
7271536(50107) Ardea has to be my favorite Northern. She was easily able to bring my account from mid level Arena rankings almost immediately to Overlord for AOE and single-target. The high base stats allow her to be thrown into any level of content with mediocre gear and do extremely well. Just overall a crazy unit that is very fun.
8001438(50105) My favorite northerner is Olague, he was the second epic defender I picked up and he's still my go to when I need an actual defender instead of a fighter to block. He tanks almost as well as either of my two legendary defenders in worse gear.
UID : 9324039(50118) At my stage , i'd say Olague since i started the game a month ago, my list of legendaries isn't big, i got lucky to pull Khamet and Setram, it helped me a lot focusing on building those two without having to worry about defenders :)
5577878(50066) Brokkir is my favourite Northerner champion. I was very lucky to pull him early on. I think he was my 1st or 2nd lego! He's been used all the time ever since in many areas of the game. I don't know what I'd do without him. Great champion!
My favorite Northerner is Elddr, he was my first lego lord and he is one of the hero that can really tank and deal dmg at the same time, love him, He saved my NM void rift 5343929(50055)

The trial and error of making Northener heroes smile in Photoshop is disturbingly difficult 😂😂
It's so funny to see them smiling tho... Lol
Shamir had me dyin😂
It’s so creepy but so worth it
@@Therickytolson pays off well 😂😂

Putting Brokir at number 3 and Olague at 8 is fcking wild

I second This!
Estrid definitly should be on the list , she can slay everyone,cost 14 full upgrade,2 range tile,aoe damage,she increase is speed in ultimate,defence piercing,try it,she is a beast.
What a great and time to do this….people need this. How many in guild have no 25 keen wisdom on delores…..um mine lol. With new players, keep doing what you do! Love you!
Lightlocke will always have a special place in my heart since he helped me a lot pushing GR1 back in the days before he got nerfed :´)
He needs unnerfed
Here we go again.
Thanks for all the effort for all of us! Keep up!
A lot of good info, especially for a little more than casual player, like myself, I'm understanding the game better now
looking forward for the whole series
Valkyra, she is amazing, her range goes even farther than her hit box shows after an ult and she can resurrect other characters. One of the best in the game.
Big thumbs up for this series, Love it
Olague is my favourite. This wall helped me in soo much content, cleared 2-21 with him and soo viable in VR
I wish to get brokir so much, ill be glad to get A King Harts even, Thx again for your Effort!
Valkyra is my favourite northerner. She was my first lego I got and carried me incredibly hard through campaign, until I got Khamet. I really liked her kit and used her when I could, even though she wasn't really meta at that time, then new content dropped and she got soft buffed through it, so I use her even more now
Brokkir hard carried me through most of the game... I pulled Brokkir, Hatssut, Elowynn my first week and still use all 3 daily.
Northerners. Only one who you need three mages to complete the stupid faction trails.
But my favorite northerner has to be Valk because of that INSANE range she gets. She has been a big lifesaver and I've gotten a dup of her and it makes her range even better. She's helped me so much in void rift!
i actually have a top 3 on those northerners: vortex because he saved my early game and i still use it in mid game, Maul because since i've upped him, my achievements went to the roof on GR3 but my preferred is marri because now that she is awakened 5, she is absolutely a beast....
Harz A1 is really helpful so he can deploy shields to adjacent allies.
Vortex the dude. I use him in pretty much all contents. Sidenote, it's my birthday this weekend and those gems sure would make it better 😊
I use Elddr in every void stage, gvg, and most other places 😅
I’m fairly confident in this weekends banner after three months of saving I’m going to pull one of these ancient exclusives you kinda forget exists, like Elddr or Claw. I’m making funeral arrangements for 90 ancient crystals as we speak
My favorite northerner is Vortex, I've been using him since I pulled him, he compensates the wierd range of my Elowing in almost every content.
Harpun can self-sustain cause he can generate shield on hit, meaning he's the only platform unit helping your maul in northerner 10 11 and 12 if you don't have valkyra or ardea
This is a hard one as this is indeed a great faction, but since I don't have Ardea, my vote goes to Valkyra.

Close runners up: Maul and Vortex, especially since they are "only" epics!

Even tho i have like nearly all the heroes in northeners like harz ardea valk and many more my favorite hero of the faction and also in the whole game is nocturne. Since the day i pulled him early game i used nocturne on everywhere. He was there when i first cleared void rift nightmare he was there when i first cleared nm4 50k he was there when i cleared gr2-21 which is the very first gear raid i managed to max out. Even tho i had heroes like a3 hex for magic damage or even when i use ghan ardea valeria for st arena i still add nocturne to the mix i still used him, still use him and love every part of his kit.

I have a bit of a counter-point to your Eldyyr take. Eldyyr is GREAT at being a tank without being a tank. Any of those fights in void rift where Tanks get rocks dropped on them? Eldyyr can tank a lane AND does enough damage he's going to pick off attackers. I use him all over Void Rift and challenge PVE stages where you need a unit that can take hits and also damage people. He isn't flashy, but he makes a lot of stages easier in subtle ways.
He is great for Void Rift, however there's a few stages Isolde is better still. Her and Harz are also better in a lot of other content. Below Gwendolyn and Nocturne is a choice for sure though lol.
They did Falcia dirty. Her dps should be comparable or better than salazar, but the lack of self-sustain, and her ult not switching target or aoe, and without her a1 is what drove her off the ground.
I proposed a new faction, where lorewise, its members are freelance huntsmen and bounty hunters. Their lord bonus would be giving them a small amount of damage bonus, and lifesteal for every hit landed, but the stack cap is very high, but the stacks loses if not constantly fighting. This allows obscure legos to have a chance to shine, especially those one trick ponies like Lucious, Kai, and Falcia to have a place on the meta, becauee lorewise, those 3 doesnt really have a set faction as home, like the north folks at fort backlast, or the unified watchguard. Theyre basicallu those folks who will hunt, for justice and vengence, as long as you gave the right price
Mail has to be my favorite, I remember when I first started, I didn’t like his look, and thought he was way expensive. Almost a year in, he’s incredible
Mail has crazy damage especially from my boss when it says “unfortunately we have to let u go”
What did Isolde do to you to have you botch the smile so horribly 😂
i loved that smirk!
Brokkir is my favourite Northerner. Arrived early and hence you can imagine, how useful he has been to a Newbie.
- Him not dying was my most fascinating discovery. Simply love him....
- Just cleared GR2 / 19 easily as he held oneside.... along with Valderon, who didn't need ANY help demolishing there other side, without your famed sweaty techniques :)
- Video on my channel.... as I LMAO while doing it.... Had been putting off clearing this for a month now.... & realised, I had all the heroes to easily do it....
I almost wrote Vortex because I use him with Elowyn anywhere.... in any team.... But Brokkir was a notch better for impossible situations.
Cheers !
Borras should be here. Change my mind.
Who
@@Keanu1Sydeboreas maybe
lol u mean borreas , with all freeze shit he got u might think he’s a northener but he’s from etoseria order
@jerechotan3784 yes, I know he is esso. But he needs duality with northern. Also, Bravo figuring out who I was talking about as I did leave out one whole letter.
He totally should lol
Valkyra was my first legendary and the first to max out. Love her in so much
ID: 6527361(50084)
Ardea - I was lucky to pull her on her banner and I'm using her all the time since, she's great in most of the content
Have to say Gwendolyn is extremely good with the chaotic faction if you don’t have carnelia
Great stuff. If I may, however, I will say on longer videos that horn can get quite repetitive..
small mistake with sadie. The multi hit codex boss. theres that strat to tank the hits using her and you can just bring pure dps and elowyn.
Valkyra is one of my first heroes. I was super sad when I got 2 extra dupes of her on 1+1. Now she is my first A4, and since they released GR4, I love her even more. Use her in Exp raid, Gold Raid, Melee Insignia farming and ofc GR4. 5490964(50054)
Another cool list, pun intended.
Oof on that Sadie ranking. She is my most awakened legendary, and has one of my highest BP. Sad to see her regarded so low.
Double oof on the Falcia ranking. Love her look. I'm a huge Witcher fan. She was my top DPS everywhere for a while. But I pulled the likes of Arrogance and Silas some time after and her use rate dropped.
Aveline has a great name. My favorite Aveline is from Dragon Age 2. There was this one companion mission with Aveline that still ranks as one of my favorite in the entire franchise.
Midan and Estrid are ranked kind of low in my opinion. Midan's utlity and healing combination are pretty useful in many parts of the game. And isn't Estrid's defense break the best in the game? At the very least I would've ranked up above Krodor, arguably top 10.
Goldlague of the Silver Shield. 2nd best free hero in the game.
Golly Miss Marri. Best free hero in the game. Viable in early, mid, late, and maybe end game. Good in PvE and PvP alike. Such a well designed hero and accessible hero.
Valkyra was my second ever legendary. What a beautiful looking model. What a kickass cinematic. And by the way, her kit isn't too bad either. Awesome, awesome hero.
I keep summoning Shamir (4 so far). I don't mind because I'm guaranteed to sell him and can potentially upgrade a better hero.
I just pulled shamirs artifact and that was just as sad as pulling him lol
yea when i pulled him i questioned my life, what a useless legendary
Yeah, I'm out the way, yeah, I'm low, okay
Yeah, the island right here's remote, okay
I think northerners are underrated.
This is just making me happier that my first ancient pulled was ardea lol. On my 6th shard
Vortex, he is just on every team comp I have.
In love with Nocturne, I don't own many northeners but that's my favorite by far, it's extented range helped me a lot for VR
5449198(50015)
Always ready for a good tier list
I agree with everything except Sadie. She doubles all my healers healing an I'm not sure if it's because of her exclusive artifact or what but I posted photos in my guild of her healing side by side with all other healers on my codex which is ss plus and she triples 4 of my other healers healing and doubles my vortex's healing. She however is a3 with her exclusive stage 1. Not sure if it's worth some testing by someone smarter than me but my heros gear is not bad mostly all pieces ancient Invig with either calamity or war lord or life force and immortal.
Shamir smile🤣🤣
I love the explanation!
Hahah Shamir looks funny 😂
I got glacius at 1+1 with cerberus
I do not have Ardea, so could not try her in gb2, but what makes her s+ there? She can not stay low hp to have higher damage because she would die, bleeds are not required and chaotic and northerners are not good factions for gb2.
I love this kind of videos🎉
MY FAVORITE FACTION! Love Northerners. And I still have love for Dagna. You bumped up my need for Nocturne. Prioritizing Nocturne over Artemis. Never stopped wanting Brokkir and Gwendolyn. Elddr I use in almost everything. Valkyria is growing on me as she keeps proving that she's an MVP. Vortex is always proving that he's the best healer. Aveline I actually use more than other Defenders. Can't wait for Glacius! Overall , though I'm going to say that my #1 pick for Northerners is Elddr. Like I said; I use Elddr in almost everything. He's my Go-to Tank.
Forever Knight
5200531(50048)
Maul is my favorite. Just for the character design of a sharkman. His ultimate should be a sharknado. 8677615/50105
@fastidious_gg Great video fasti, love the break downs but i disagree with you on Eldrr. I got him early and maxed him and almsot felt bad cuz u gave him rank 12 lol. As a new FTP i felt like i had messed up cuz I dont wana spend my resources poorly. I see some peeps in the comments challenging u on him so.... lol. I use him all the time.
It’s a crime that falcia is not dual faction with nightmare.
When you sleep tonight look out your window
Lock the doors and windows
Call the cops
Anything you can do
You will atone for putting maul and marri above nocturne
Eldr is easily the best northerner. He has the biggest hammer.
Good point lemme change this
eldrr needs a buff or rework for an ancient exclusive lord he doesn't feel like it, hopefully they change him in the future.
Think u need to build him better he works for me really well just the way he is
@@anthonymatos9914 hes "good" i use him alot but he just doesn't feel like an ancient exclusive lord which are suppose to be the rarest most top tier heroes in the game
@@anthonymatos9914 He is very good, a buff would not go amiss though, he's arguably the weakest ancient exclusive lord. Northerners generally get used in content to help with tanking, and I find he often isn't good enough for this role, while Isolde is. Whether due to him not being tanky enough or having 1 less block. And his damage output is pretty bad. Purely single target, not massive numbers, no range, no cc. He doesn't really provide a lot beyond his lord bonus.
I got a rare summoning crystal as my day 3 reward on my ftp account, not marri. Whats up with that?
Elddr is my favourite northerner (he is also the only Lego Lord I ever opened in the game since I started in Oct), I don’t have many good fighters and after testing against my other “good” fighter Salazar Elddr outputs more dmg and slightly everyone on the team. I also like Sadie a lot, I use her in pvp with a northerner team, I beat out a lot of Valerya teams (which i also don’t have) nyx codex, gr2 etc…
5704026(50068)
Estrid is the best Northerner hero 🥵
Favourite northerner has got to be olague just because he’s free for everyone pretty early in the game and outshines most Lego tanks still . 5602862(50070)
Vortex is my fav. He was my first healer and carried me through early/mid game. Love the range. Still use him whenever I can. Valk is a close 2nd.
6844321(50091)
Very excite
Super excited for the new mage. I need that 3rd one. 6441334(50084)
Favorite hero of the north is definitely Valk. I've even used her in gr3! She's so awesome, and especially if you get her artifact. She self generates the shields. It just don't get better in my book
It's gotta be Ardea. She's not only my favorite northerner, she's my favorite hero of them all. Her damage + range combo are unparalleled, and she says fun quotes too lol.
5757420(50066)
4095661(50010) Olague/Isolde combo. Valkyra and Maul are great,
but I don't remember using anyone more than Olauge early on, and even now after a year. Oh how Lightlocke has fell from grace. He was SSS and then in 1 patch he was never used again lol. You can handle right side in faction trial with just Nocturne, Olague and Vortex. Left
side can be done with Marri and Maul, but you need to use that 3rd mage just to get the 3rd star. That's a silly requirement Moonton.
For me it's Valkyra, I needed her so much for quite a while, for GR dungeon 1 and pulled her on the banner this weekend. Not even on the divines that I pulled, but from normal 2x, it was crazy. Even more so, next day I got her exclusive artifact so yeah, she has quite a story for me.
Also the UID: 7300516(50104)
6390429(50079) Valkyria was the first legendary I pulled - she's my powerhouse for so many things. I will say - she doesn't target airborne units unless her ultimate is going - that's a very small sad point.
4644857(50004). Elddr is my man of the hour. Very versatile as both a beefy boy like abomination or a solid single target dps. He is also a very strong lord with a lord skill and an ultimate that benefits his faction members.
Great list! I sadly only have one legendary northerner. My favorite northerner, though would be Maul. He just brings so much from good damage as an epic to crowd control and he’s the only reason I was able to beat gear 2-19. I’ve also always had a thing for the trident. Getting him to A5 was huge for me and he’s been a mainstay on my teams for a while.
UID: 5945513(50065)
Favorite northerner is Olague. The man is a wall period. Pair him up with Harz and or Vortex and you have yourself a fortress.
Thank you for your hard work Fasti.
7777053(50105)
I really think Olague should be higher.
Tell me why,
Aint nothing but a heartache
Lol I refuse to fight arena teams running ardea
Nerf fast. Fix bug slow .we are moonton
as a new player, I only have a handful of the northerners. and for me vortex and olague have been so clutch in so many areas. Olague helped me push AMR further then I had been able to. ID: 9768948(50116)
Also wish I had seen this before I 6 stared and A5 harpun but he was like the only marksman I had
Falcia and Elldir have to be the 2 most disappointing heroes in the game for me. Man I wanted them to be good together and the DMG just is not there... If I get jeera and miss out on the pope maybe I'll see if the 3 can carry the DMG in Gb2/1
I'm so happy to hear someone else echo my thoughts on Elddr. My guild keeps trying to gaslight me into thinking he's good, but he's so niche. I use him (as a lord only) in content where i have ardea and/or valk and need to deal dmg, which isn't a ton of content. Most of the time when I'm running Northerners, they're there mostly to be meat shields, and in those instances, I'm much better off running Harz so him and Brokkir are just a little bit thicker. UID is 5769825(50069). Favorite Northerner is Ardea, and it's not even close. I was SO pumped to pull her, cuz I know how good she is...but now I can't stop. Considering I just got her off Iovar's banner, it's kind of crazy that she's A2 already. I'm totally fine with more of her coming home though.
My favorite Northerner hero is Maul. I don't have all the great heroes of the Northerner but he helped me through hard levels with his incredible ultimate and his range aoe. 3485226(50008)

Oddly enough, for all the northern heroes I currently have, i (by a mile) get the most placement use from Elddr. His HP is high enough that with his skills, he sustains himself in the fight. And his damage is comparable to some of my best nightmare fighters without even maining attack % on all 3 gear. Honestly I love him for what he's done for me. Carries me through void rift nightmare. Helped immensely in trials and campaign. And is a part of one of my GVG teams. With Lunacy Visor he's fantastic!
2858126(49003)
Falcia and Ardea are my favourite as the best looking heroes. Sucks that I don't own either, lol
Elddr is definitely great for PVE especially in void rift. He's made my runs way easier since I pulled him and skilled him up. Hits hard AF too.
ID: 5657179(50061)
Favorite Northerner: Valkyra, why? I’ve always been a sucker for a beautiful angel with wings.
and that little tush be honest ;)
9046217(50103) vortex is my favorite. Still deploy instead of hollow if i need tanky healer for content. great heal range and easy to build.
Olague is best boy bc he thiccc
Dad bos representation ftw
7271536(50107)
Ardea has to be my favorite Northern. She was easily able to bring my account from mid level Arena rankings almost immediately to Overlord for AOE and single-target. The high base stats allow her to be thrown into any level of content with mediocre gear and do extremely well. Just overall a crazy unit that is very fun.
I love Valkyra. She's one of my first leggos, and totally carried me in clearing GR-4-5. Very useful in a lot of content too!

My favorite northerner is Olague, he was the second epic defender I picked up and he's still my go to when I need an actual defender instead of a fighter to block. He tanks almost as well as either of my two legendary defenders in worse gear.
Fav Northerner is Vortex. The far reaching heal range and hard to kill is awesome. 6826265(50087)
UID : 9324039(50118)
At my stage , i'd say Olague since i started the game a month ago, my list of legendaries isn't big, i got lucky to pull Khamet and Setram, it helped me a lot focusing on building those two without having to worry about defenders :)
5577878(50066) Brokkir is my favourite Northerner champion. I was very lucky to pull him early on. I think he was my 1st or 2nd lego! He's been used all the time ever since in many areas of the game. I don't know what I'd do without him. Great champion!
My favorite Northerner is Elddr, he was my first lego lord and he is one of the hero that can really tank and deal dmg at the same time, love him, He saved my NM void rift
