You can reliably get the AI to blow itself up on it.
I think sometimes the Devs release monsters without fully testing how they will look in the landscape of the game. Ankou is a great idea for a monster, with a really cool design. But with him being so slow, and literally killing himself if not in the front line, people donât really know what to do with him. Where would he be best placed in a team? Front line, where he moves nearly last? Mid or end game, where he enters behind everything and dies after using two moves? Really, can anybody give a legit answer to those questions? I, along with some other players, arenât really sure where this guy is meant to go. Like Zardecil said why use him over anything else in a certain scenario. I donât look at this as asking for a buff. I look at it as asking for a tweak so people who have been playing this game for years can actually figure out what the heck his niche is. Heâs in such an in-between right now and doesnât stay alive long enough to really get out of it. If

I used ankoudragon first link DS takes 100tu if u accelerate it is 80s well at first turn accelerate make no sense coz it will die in 100sec anyway. 1) his turn come after 85 sec due to low speed
2) DS take 100 sec
3) Bloodcrave 80 sec
4) He died lol
Just only two kills nd he dead.Really Devs a legend with only 2 kill nd died automatically its not that op that it need to be killed in 300 sec.Most protector have HG so Protector Killer takes 100 sec to kill one.One more skill LINK DS so dev want us to use full 16 dark element team.I Find This legend worthless. it need buff @Dev_VKC
Suggestion:(Any1)
- Increase speed upto 70%
- increase countdown 300sec to 400sec
- countdown begans when he gets his turn not entrance
- swap Protect Killer to Protect Focus
- 300sec will not be eligible for original one only for clones(rebirth ones)
- Make it another way like kill him before 200 sec passive wont trigger if not kill within 200 sec it will rebirth
- My Fav Remove âLinkâ.
Any one of above will make him usable.
Giving him protect will be broke as fuck. A protector that just keeps coming and coming every time you kill it. Yea that wonât be a problem at allâŚ

Only you have to consider the way randomness works. You could have is spawn next in line, or at the near end of your team. And shiva basically does the same thing right now, only with existing protectors.
1 countdown begans when he gets his turn not entrance or
2 300sec will not be eligible for original one only for clones(rebirth ones)
These are Best solution Imo.
Countdown begins when he gets his turn means that the FL version wonât be surviving indefinitely.

So only thing i c is Remove Link & Speed buff to 70% thats it.
Give it protect teammates. Such that it can eternal revenge, and then protect, either wasting a bunch of time, or making it respawn and able to kill something again.
protect teammate would be op focus will be great as he can be offensive or defensive
Have you read my logic as to why it wouldnât be?
i guess i neeed to go up again or u can say it in a short summary
Basically in that the placement after he dies is random. So some games he may come in 4 or 5 times, others he might only come in once to protect. Itâs pretty random.
just used him again realize his rebirth comes at half speed 19%, they need to get buffed clone should be full speed + speed buff to 70%.
Why would a protect monster get a blood move along with random placement and eternal revenge moveset where it would appear 4-5 times. It would make him very very strong even in SCB and normal events let alone PVP.
Itâs not guaranteed to appear 4-5 times, and knocking it back reduces it to twice, without eternal revenge.
Zard, dude, accept others opinions man⌠we all say protect will be way to OP. If everyone says it, including ones who got this monster, you should start thinking maybe you missed something.
If you put a pritect on him, there is no reason for the âdeath in 300 secâ, as he always going to be killed before. Yiu just cant counter it. Even knockback will make an endless protect at the backline cuz he will be the one who dies in there. Put him end game with a bunch of rocks, atra and auro and thats infinate protectors that can also sweep. Thats broken, get over it.
He should have a speed buff / deathsentence only after rebirth in my opinion. I wouldnt change his link attack tho, he doesnt need an offence buff - he already strong(if you can counter his link is fine), he just have a problem with speed vs timer till death - they are not working together well.

lots of people agree
i guess there are really something wrong with this ankou
admin @Dev_VKC @Dev_BRD please read this and response to us all
So previously I put forward three ideas with the secret skill to make the monster better, since the SS is not very suitable. However, what about this idea!
Eternal rebirth change
- No longer applies the 300s death sentence on itself.
Eternal revenge change
- Applies a 300s death sentence on itself.
This would make the monster far more reliable as you are given control over whether the 300s lifespan is applied and the first Ankou in your team will survive as normal whether itâs in the front line or not. Youâll still want to use Ankou near the front of your team to set up the link and get the most rebirths as possible. It would also allow Ankou to get a few more kills and for the secret skill to actually have some use.
I donât think it would need any other buffs if these changes were made. It might even be worth considering a nerf to the link death sentence from 100TU to 130/160TU since this will become a strong alternative to eternal revenge with it not placing a death sentence on itself.
It will be fine if they buff his speed nd clone at full speed + remove link is way better than anything.
