I made him my first six star. I had every intention of make kael my first six star but once I got Artak and seen what he could do even with my dumpster fire for artifacts I knew he had to be my first 6*. He’s not disappointed me yet.

Hey ash maybe for us new players who don’t know every character yet you could put the little picture of the champion on one side of your video so when you name them we can have a little idea of who you’re talking about just a lil suggestion

Hey Ash, a suggestion for your spider team, very budget. Use Wendarin to open with freeze, then go Skraank with burns, use Artak with Dogs of War, use your cold heart with Heartseeker to deplet turn meter, and Kymar (you can use a Renegade here) reset skills and repeat this. It's a sub 30s run for you.

Both the content and editing makes this so much interesting and fun to watch. Great work as always ❤.

He's my second 6* champ after Ronda. My Artak is a heavy hitter with 100 +53 Speed. He's been a game changer for me as helped me get deeper into the dungeons. I built him quickly in the Castle on Nightmare. I was able do him and Ronda as a team on the last two Brutal campaigns. He and Ronda just knocked down the Demon Lord in the last campaign quickly.

Hey Ash, I watch your videos all the time. You have helped me so much with my raid account so much. I just cracked Elder Skarg from a sacred shard, and I was hoping you could do a spot light on him and maybe a really good build for him.

My setup for Spider 25 is Kavalax, Artak, Mordecai, UDK, and Tundra. I get a 56-sec run. I set Artak's A3 to go first then Mordecai's A2 on every round and let it go from there. I got through to Hard Stage 6 with the same setup.

Good video bro, I never knew what you defined in this as it pertains to ATK. I noticed you didn't like the book layout for upgrading skills (all went to the first ability); do each book independently (alone) and it should randomly hand out the upgrades whereas when you do multiple books together whichever skill it chooses, all those books will go there (that can).

I’ve been sorta sitting on Artak and hadn’t done anything with him yet, but this helps give me an idea on how to build him. Thank you!

Thanks so much for the vids Ash. I just passed 60 days on raid and your content has been super helpful

Great video as always. Thanks and keep it up. Was funny that you mentioned Skraank. I pulled one after watching this. Haha. Happy Friday.

I just got Artak up as my magic affinity 6* for the Arbiter quests and he allowed me to push through and get a mostly successful spider 20 team. I have Sicia, Artak, and Tyrant Ixlimor all at 60 and Skraank at 40, and have Drexthar waiting to open during a champion chase. No shortage of HP burners for me now. I have been pairing him with another burner to make sure as many spiders as possible are having the debuff. Atm Tyrant is going slower than Artak so he applies the burns second unfortunately, but it still works out. They have the same cooldown timers on their HP burn aoes for me. A couple weeks ago, I was lucky to get consistent spider 15, and now there is about a 90% success rate for 20 at around 2 minutes. Demytha was a huge part of that as well. She pairs well with Tyrant's ally protect buff. The 20 team is Pythion, Demytha, Tyrant, Artak, and Coldheart.

Yeah Artie and Skraankie are best buddies, love them in a HP burn/ poison comp with Elenaril and Anax ( and a 5th someone like a Valkyrie) gonna try with Liburga just got her🙃😊

I had to give my Artak a Relentless set because I don't have the best gear yet, being new and all. But, good thing is that I've got 4 or 5 complete 6 star sets of Relentless and the stats are really good. Just need some more SPD and ACC, but I'm sure that once I upgrade all of his gear from lvl 12 to 16, it's going to drastically increase his stats. Plus, I just barely started actually using glyphs since good gear has been a slow drip for me, but just by using HP% glyphs on all 6 pieces of gear I got an extra 24% HP, that's a massive upgrade! I'm hoping that in another month or so, I'll have him set to the stats that I'd like to have. Thanks for the character guide Ash, these videos are super useful for new players like myself!

Thanks for the tips on Artak. Mine is lvl 50, 5 star ascended but his power level is a VERY sad 7900... I knew i was doing something wrong. Gonna take advantage of the free kit removal and play around with perception and speed parts Edit: his power level is now a solid 22,000 💪

So glad you have kept Vex Thal account all this time. It is really helpful to see the "I don't have a good Accuracy banner" and a basic great hall.

Yep - he's done the same for my account. I built as much speed as I could, back before the bug fix. But he's stayed super useful. Pushed me into hard dungeons from about the same place as you were stuck.

I have him paired with my Sicia on Spider 25. Same as you he is not fully booked yet, and he definitely could use a bit more speed, but with him and Sicia coming in and absolutely wrecking Spider in the first turn (I open with Artaks A3, then follow with Sicias A2 and Artaks A2, then my RG comes in to land a smack) it's a reliable sub-1.5 minute run (Record time was 35 seconds). Previously I could barely get 100% reliability

Yeah, my first build on him, geared and booked, is 70k HP, 3750 Def, 216 Speed, and 278 ACC. I'm keeping my eye out for slightly better gear, but I have in Perc, Div LIfe, and Immortal gear and he allowed me to one key my first Hydra dungeon first trial run with him.

Thanks bro you guides are boss for new players keep going 💯💯 i definetly need some more ideas for Aox the Rememberer💯💯💯💯

Such a fun champ. Been loving mine as well, the animations are great.

I run the same spider team.. Though since i dont have kymar I use Siphi. Skrank is only 50, but is fully booked and Achak is 50, and unbooked..but there mainly for the passive and initial freeze :)

Have to built mine. Awesome video

Great content mate. Need to bump up my speed a tad it seems😅

Yes! I loved that little Peacemaker and Vigilante edit! Just finished the show lol

Just wanted you to know that I’m changed my piece of trash Artak and built him as you suggested. Speed, Hp and Acc. Big difference. I took the spider to lvl 22. Ice golem to lvl 25 and lvl 2 on hard. Thanks for all your input. Rock On.

11:17 Mordecai also can't weak hit from affinity because it's not a hit. I'm giving the crown to him as best epic burner because he'll hp burn through poison cloud in hydra. Not intending to be nit picky Ash. I really enjoy catching all of your videos, they are like having a good friend come over every day. 👍

If you pair artak up with deliana(hp/Crit build) and sinesha he completely wipes the floor with anything you throw him at. I'm glad I watched this video before I built him because he is insane with this build style.. my deliana has 45k HP after boosts and sinesha's a3 makes all allies have the same hp value as the champ with the highest HP. At lvl28 no ascensions he did 1.76m DMG to CB on his own.

I'll go ahead and try that combo of Apothecary+ Dhukk + Artak, but what about Dark Elhain? Wasn't Dark Elhain especially designed for Ice Golem?.and here's an interesting "try-out" using a team of all freeze specialists against Ice Golem. Would it work? I don't have any Legendaries with that Synergy, such as Pyxniel or Gilseah Soul Guide, or Wurmlym Frosting, BUT , other than Dark Elhain, I've got Frozen Banshee, Grave Chill Killer, Icebound prospector, Frostskin, Hellfang Rotting Mage, and War Priest. Now, I know, weak, low HP, probably won't survive, but if I take them to 50, build them with as much HP , Defense and Resistance as possible, would they get me past stage 13 (I'm practically stuck at 13 in every dungeon.)

The way Artak's ai is setup he will always use his A2 first for some reason. So if you want him too use his A3 first you gotta set it up

Ash, Artak and Supreme Galek are crazy good. I'm currently trying to find a speed where Artak starts off slower, Galek places his burns first, Artak activates with A2, his speed increases because of passive to overlap galek, A3 to place his burns, Galek activates...... It's such a crazy pair if someone had them both running at like 300+ speed in hydra. I've ran through spider 25 in 1:09 recently with the duo, and that wasn't even with the tune I described above. Mine had Artak still not over lapping Galek to cause Galek to activate into mostly nothing at that point

Hey Ash, so you don’t recommend full masteries for Artak? Or did you just do the first few rows because that Artak was on your FTP account? I just got gems and really want to put masteries on a 6 star champ that already does a lot of damage. It’s on my main sort-of-play-to-win account….which tier six masteries would you recommend for Artak, or do they really not make a difference? My Artak has high HP and high def, and does a significant amount of damage with the new 2 star brimstone….I thought he would be a good candidate for tier 6…what are your thoughts?

Big thank you Ash for this video! I finally was able to finish 3 level 25 dungeon because of Artak, even farm lvl 25 spider easy!

Don't forget about renegade. I use that for my 43 sec Spider 25. Adding Artak reduced my speed by 20 seconds.

Could you check on the test server about Avenging gear. I assume that it is a 1 time retaliation, but wondering if you get hit by a retaliation, if that could cause another retaliation.

Got a quad speed roll on a perception piece when I was building him, had me hype

Man, I just love your videos!!

I love Artak. Took me a while to get around to building him.(I'm f2p and it takes about 2 weeks for clan boss and events to get me enough legendary tomes to book a champion. I had Michinaki to build at the time as well). He's awesome. I him built with accuracy, damage and speed. He can farm 12-3 brutal (6 seconds). He finally got me a sub one minute spider run(haven't transitioned to spider hard yet), he duos ice golem with Elva and is a great carry for Hydra. Love love love Artak

I have Skraank and I love him! He's made his way onto some of my core teams.

I have him built in regeneration and he seems to do pretty darn good because it keeps him alive

My spider team is now Artak/Geo burn team with Helicath to block damage, scyl in relentless to stun and revive if needed and ronda in relentless to fill the last spot (though looking to relpace her with Septimus once he is built out)

I have mine in regen at the moment since I dont have the champions for a full comp and he is helping me through so much content since he literally wont die

Do you have a link to the full mastery build?

I need some help so I am about to get arbitor.. but I'm really far on my murcy counter for void .. if I collect arbitor will it reset my murcy

when ever I build champs I build them for a team role - and build to their strengths and dont reinvent the wheel - thanks this is important as the precious resources must me distributed correctly - personally UDK on my mini acct helps me a ton because I dont have a Brogni so thanks I think this is great information

Hey ash what’s the difference between farming spider 20 vs spider 25 are the rewards better? It just seems like more energy for the same reward

That was helpful, thank you. It would be nice if they did a free gear removal day again. Changing weapons out on top champions can get costly.

I always love your videoes from your mini account, no matter the content hehe😃

i have seen you have a coldheart, add another one with artak and skraank + udk (or achak, maybe its even faster without the attack animations, but definitely not both) and your time goes down to 26 secs.

Hello king Ash! Hope everything is well with you! Could you please do Clan Boss build for him?

I'm missing d game so currently using the stun build you suggested in your last artak video. Works crazy 👍

Love the vid dude, seeing your greathall with your magic, force and spirit attack levels not raised to level 1 means you aren't doing the arena missions lol

Would you build him in toxic? Specifically for hydra and other bosses ?

Looking forward to complete Artak's masteries..;)

So, I was thinking in use him on my badget man-eater team, has my burner. So it is a waste, right?

Love this champ. I run him with Achac Akoth moso mage UDK as lead and with cold heart for heal reduction and her obv damage/ turn meter control. He is awesome for hydra I run him with moso mage Shamael Drex Geo as lead scyl and Deek.

I have righteous sword and shield resilient helm and armor and perception glove and boots did i build him right? he is giving me 13.7k power with 20k hp at level 37 1 pink star.

I have very similar team for spider, only instead of Skraank and Kymar I use Armiger and Visix for TM reduction. Runs usually take 1.5 - 3 minutes. But can't get past stage 22, affinity problem I guess, even tho it shouldn't be.

Hmmm interesting name for your account any relation to EverQuest lol and I started raid recently going on 2 weeks of playing and I’m loving your videos making it super helpful to focus build and breakdown everything keep it up

I don't remember you using Geo in any videos, I'm going to double check my Artak. But I just got Geo, and he's already starting to equal and almost pass, hes amazing!! So just wondering what your thoughts are on Geo, let us know Ash, Thanks for your positivity to begin every video, keep it up bro❣️

As someone who doesn't have a 60 yet, would you recommend Artak to be the first or someone like Kael or Tomb Lord?

Definitely gotta rebuild mine after watching this ahahahahahah...appreciate the heads up fosho

upvoted this as i love seeing your mini account advance.

i build him same as you ash just in toxic gear. Man oh man, he puts burns & poisons out like crazy & btw....got leorious today by my only 1 yolo void shard 😅🙏 i play since 7 months+- Cheers ash keep it up and good luck in life & rsl

Achak, Ninja and Mordecai are great at priming Burns agains the waves and minions. Feels good now that Burn is viable. Love Fire as an element.

Artak I absolutely love, he got me to ice golem stage 25. But I need to figure out a fire knight 25 team.

I am using Artak in my hydra team. Now when the sets updates come live, I probably rebuild him with Cursed set. All attacks are AoE and 50% chance to Hex debuff will be big improvement.

Are there any solo or duo strategies for Artak?

should i prioritize maxing this guy over my starter. i have galek and elaihn (randomly got her from shard).

Working on the Scyl countdown now. 7 days in. About to summon Yannica and I've got all the ingredients to blend up Rahzin. Definitely gonna watch your Scyl guide soon and Rahzin if you have his guide.

I'm interested in your Achak build for ice golem. I haven't had much success using him there.

Artak has def been a boon to my account. I also maxed out your girl Scyl and she has been a goddess in all game modes. Two must builds for sure.

Question i have 2 artaks should i empower him or just have 2

Artak was my first Lego champ. I started playing right when he came out. I have built him with almost 80k hp, almost 100 % crit rate and around 100% crit dmg (wasn't intended, jut got a triple roll) . Speed and accuracy are on the low side BUT... Artak doesn't need that much to be of use. His passive gives him oodles of extra speed, so much in fact that he often hits first on the second round (because that bonus is still there). Same goes for accuracy. I am at spider Hard 2 now and it still works fine with just 190 speed and 215 acc. I will have to increase the acc soon though

the edits are awesome!

Do you do account takeovers ash?

What was the dragon team? Did I miss it?

love the video , one of my clan mates said HH says to build him with 100% crite rate. i said no his damage comes from his Burns. as my team did 34 mill on Hydra and his did 5million . proff is in the pudding my friend

I use my artak for hydra and doom tower waves in a poison set and he is a huge asset in both teams

Thanks to Artak I got past lvl 25 for Spider and Ice Golem as a F2P. Now I wish I had Superior Galek since he was my starter. Been using Kael as the farmer in Campaign.

I built him with toxic set, speed, hp/def/ and accurate, it looks to hit nice woth poison in addition to the fire dmg !!

Nice to see you use UDK in spider aswel, I’m using him slow with 2 turns stoneskin in spider hard. He really keeps my team allive.

Ash great videos. I'm wondering if you are interested in a beginners' guide to artifacts. I started playing about two months ago (restarted account with UDK code) but I honestly have no idea when to put gear on champs. I have a boatload of gray and green gear but I'm not sure if it's just silver or to equip on champions for content (i.e. faction wars). I feel like I should be further but artifacts are holding me back.

I have him in provoke, he's great but dies very soon 😞 lol. I'm off to rebuild him now! Thanks Ash 😊 Btw, you're so funny 😂

Guilty. I went to Hellhades' website and built Artak to be a nuker.

I didnt even get that last "dwarf" you said we where going to get!

Ash I'm newbie knucklehead who got Artak free and all my artifacts I have on him is Perception gear and have been upgrading those artifacts to try and farm best gear. Any suggestions?

I needed this

wonder if Trunda and Artak together would be a worth while combo or junk, both have hp burn but Trunda is based off of a stun?

Do you have a dicord like we are trying to add your videos to our clan tags

Ash, so Artak needs no c.rate right? I still have alot of ATK, but switched from Bolster and Killstroke to double perception and killstroke for gear

Artak is really a game changer. I paired him with Oella, and together DUO hard IG5 100%.

Call of the Arbiter episode 7: Gnut's quest to prove himself as a rightful heir goes horribly wrong. But in the chaos, he finds new purpose. New dwarf is named Gnut.

Ash is that your account in the background?

Artak or Walking tomb dreng on spider and hydra who is better ?? Mayby both

I honestly haven't used him was fortunate to get teumesia and Geo early but may pull out the vault and use him

Last season of succession might be one of if not the greatest final seasons of any show.

I've been wondering why there's an attack stat for hp and defense champions

Artak ( & pulling Akemtum around the same time ) took my Spider team overnight from Level 16 to Level 6 Hard!

ash ive watched so many videos of both yours and hades and still cant manage to get up to par with my dungeons and faction wars ect been playing off and on for over a year now and still feel like im a beginner player is their any way i could have you or hades look at my account and lmk what im doing wrong :)
