Best Investment Milestones for Brutus

To give you a little bit of thought process behind our guide – in general every hero has their best performance when totally maxed out. But you can’t max out every hero since the resources are very limited so what we did is taking the strenght of all Hero Focus Levels and EX Weapon Levels along the cost of investment and how good a hero is in the different game modes together which indicates you which investment have HIGH value and which ones won’t.

This also means there are certain milestones of investments, basically levels of EX Weapon that will provide valuable stats for a relatively small inestment. We spent weeks of testing and calculating on dozens of accounts to find out the investments that are worth it for every particular hero but also in relation to the bigger picture – means a hero that is used in many game modes is more valuable than one that shines in only one mode.

Here are the investment milestones we recomment for Brutus right now:

Hero Focus
Hero Focus Life Drain does only something on the lower stages. So, if Brutus is your main tank early on, you want to do that and you will see results from it - if you use him as your late-stage immunity hitbox that survives high-level deficit bursts, the Life Drain will be basically worthless and you can save yourself the investment
Goal:
Level 3
EX+5
EX Weapon - 1st Milestone I wouldn't say the EX+5 skill is not doing anything, but overall this investment is primarily for stats with blue emblems to make him survive just that tiny bit longer at the start to buy your team the time to start their ults rolling and not him dealing significant damage.
Goal:
EX+5

Magic Charms for Brutus

Magic Charms is the first stage of customizing your hero as you can strengthen certain attributes that will turn the tides a ton here. I don’t want to get into too much detail but if you want to know the whole strategy behind it I highly recommend our Magic Charm guide here.

The main idea here is that you will randomly get Magic Charms that are bound to your hero so it can take months to get the perfect ones – in the meantime you want to equip those that work as well as possible so you can get the Magic Charm skill active and get the best performance of your hero at the same time.

The recommended Magic Charms inside the game are based on normal game modes, but for Drea Realm and PvP modes you need different charms, that’s what we tested and what our recommendations are based on and this can change the outcome by a lot.

Magic Charms for Brutus to use in Story and non-PvP Modes

This is where the recommendations are mostly correct but you still want to balance them out a bit, so this is the general setup you want to go for:

Ideally you want to use Mystic, Mystic and Mystic.

Bosses, espcially Dream Realm, benefit a lot more from different Magic Charms and this can easily ramp up your total admage by 1B or even more.
