Best Hero Pairing for Old Ahab

Callahan Durrach – His Shield kit and Jack tag make him the cleanest direct match for Old Ahab on a defensive ship (See full build here). Magnus – Shield plus aggro on a Gunner slot gives your flagship more soak and keeps the whole crew tanky (See full build here). Park Hae Hyun – He adds more shielding and fleetwide buffs, which stacks perfectly with an Old Ahab shield setup (See full build here). Chien – His all-ship damage reduction is one of the best ways to make a shield flagship last longer (See full build here). Tigrand – Enemy damage reduction and strong defensive utility fit a ship built to absorb pressure (See full build here). Elizabeth Sheen – Heal and damage reduction support Old Ahab by extending the life of the whole formation (See full build here). Obi – He helps pull heat off your fleet while cutting incoming damage, which is ideal for a flagship tank (See full build here). Armstrong – Aggro plus damage reduction gives you another sturdy front-line piece for a defensive crew (See full build here). Cecilia Schafer – Her healing and fleet buffs make a shield-heavy flagship much harder to break down (See full build here).
