Summary
to make it through an entire battle inAFK Journey, players will need to verify theyutilize Support characters to their fullest potential.Supports can not only heal the team and revive them, but they can also buff the team and debuff enemies to prevent them from taking the whole team out.
Whether fans ofAFK Journey are pairing their Supports withsome powerful Tanks, Warriors, or even Mages, they’ll need to ensure they are picking the best characters available. There are a total of 8 Supports to choose from, and this list will go over each of their strengths and weaknesses.
8Fay
An Underwhelming Healer
Faycan be used to bothheal and buffher team. This can make her useful in battles to ensure her team stays alive, while also giving them the chance to deal more damage to an enemy. However, despite her playing a dual Support role, her output for both healing and buffing is quite underwhelming.
Though Fay can be useful to players at the beginning of the game, once they get a better Support character, she won’t be of much use. Her Skills will only restore a small amount of HP in comparison to others, and she buffs only a small percent of ATK and Vitality, without offering much else of value.
7Niru
A Healer With Potential
Niruis a Support character who has the potential to be an incredible healer. Not only can he make a team member essentiallyimmortal, he can also deal a decent amount of damage from hisSoul Reaping Skill, with additional damage reaching up to 600 percent. However, even though his Ultimate can save allies, it has a lot of issues that come along with it.
For players who have not successfully unlocked Niru’s Exclusive Weapon, his Ultimate will cause more harm than good. Although his Ultimate will change a team member into a Spirit and restore their HP by 45 percent of its maximum, they will slowly lose an increasing amount of HP every second, and they can only deal45 percent of their damage. Niru’s Exclusive Weapon fixes these issues, but it just isn’t worth the time and effort to obtain.
6Damian
A Great, But Restrained All-Rounder
Damianis a great all-rounder for players to use as they get further intoAFK Journey. His Skills are quite varied, allowing him to heal, increase ATK and Haste, restore Energy, andBlindenemies, rendering them immobile for a short period of time. Damian is a solid choice to place in a team, although he could certainly be better.
Similar to Niru, Damian will only start to shine once gamers unlock hisExclusive Weapon. With it, Damian will be able toenhance the team’s Haste, as well as heal any allies within 2 tiles. He can serve as a decent Support even without having his Exclusive Weapon equipped, but fans will find better options that can be powerful right at their base levels.
5Hewynn
A Top-Tier Healer
Hewynnhas thehighest base Healingstat out of all the Support characters. She can easily revive team members on the verge of falling in battle, while also protecting them by decreasing the amount of damage they take. Hewynn has incredible staying power as well, with chances being high that she will be the last of the team to fall.
It’s highly recommended to add Hewynn to a team, but she can stumble a bit early in the game. It takes a while for her to build up her Ultimate, which can end up making it useless to team members who need healing immediately. However, she will improve greatly as fans get further in the game, when they can start by pairing her with an additional Support. Bringing along a powerful DPS as well,such as a Marksmanor Warrior, will ensure her abilities don’t go to waste.
4Rowan
Fantastic At Restoring Energy
Energy is a stat that is a lot more important than most players might think. Having enough Energy in the team ensures that each character can perform their Ultimate and finish off enemies with ease.Rowanis a great Support forrestoring Energyconsistently and quickly, and he also provides some healing and a few useful buffs, such as increased Phys DEF and Magic DEF.
The only issue with Rowan is that he must be paired with another Support to be truly effective. This is due to the fact that he mostly focuses on restoring Energy, while his healing abilities are a bit lackluster. Although he is limited in this respect, he is still an incredibly useful and powerful team member to have on any team, and he can also increase his Haste to allow him to complete his Ultimate swiftly as well.
3Smokey & Meerky
The Perfect Dream Realm Support
Smokey & Meerkyare a great team, providing significant healing to the rest of their allies, recovering Energy consistently, and giving a large buff to the team’s ATK. Overall, having Smokey & Meerky in the mix will ensure that any player’s team can quickly and easily finish off their opponents.
Smokey & Meerky are one of the best Supports in theDream Realmas well, and are especiallyuseful against King Croakerand Skyclops. Their only downside is that their Special Aroma, from their Ultimate, has a very limited range, only reaching 2 tiles from their location. As players level up Smokey & Meerky, however, that range will increase by a small amount.
2Koko
An Incredible Life-Saver
Kokois a surprisingly powerful Support character, despite being an A-Level Hero. She has a wide range of abilities, includingDMG Reduction, HP Recovery, increasing the team’s Life Drain and ATK, giving the team a Shield, and much more. With Koko on the team, other characters will surely be protected and buffed significantly.
Since Koko is an A-Level Hero, it’s be much easier to ascend her and level her up. Once players get her to her Supreme+ level, she is essentially unstoppable. She can now increase an ally’s Vitality as well, and will have an increased Haste stat, allowing her to perform her Skills more frequently. Fans ofAFK Journeywill definitely want to choose Koko to quickly ascend andlevel up with Hero Essence.
1Reinier
Powerful From The Get-Go
For anyone looking for a Support to take on Story Mode and the Dream Realm with ease,Reinieris their best option. He can simultaneouslybuffthe rest of the team, whiledebuffingenemies across from players. He can also reposition some team members, and drain an enemy’s HP to restore an ally. Reinier will also replenish the team’s Energy and increase their ATK, while he himself deals impressive damage to enemies.
In terms of debuffing, Reinier can increase an enemy’s damage taken, reduce their ATK by up to 12%, and send them to another dimension to deal massive damage to them, up to500 percent. Overall, Reinier has everything one could ever need in a Support, with impressive stats to ensure the team has great survivability. He will not only excel in Story Mode, but he can also be quiteuseful in the Dream Realm, especially since his Ultimate focuses on one enemy at a time.
