Raid Shadow Legends: Fahrakin the Fat Champion Guide

Fahrakin the Fat is an epic spirit affinity champion from the Barbarian faction in Raid Shadow Legends. This attack-heavy champion is capable of dealing high damage on his opponents. His A2 ability places a HP Burn and two 5% poisons on the enemy for 2 turns. When paired with his decrease defence A1, this allows Fahrakin the Fat to cover many important debuffs for clan boss, allowing damage to be optimised. Furthermore, his A3 can be used effectively to place a 30% increase crit rate buff and 30% increase crit damage buff on all friendly team members, following this all team members excluding Fahrakin will attack one enemy target. These abilities are useful in a wide variety of scenarios, ranging from clan boss to dungeon runs, all of which will be covered in-depth during this Fahrakin the Fat champion guide.

Fahrakin the Fat Late Game Guide

Fahrakin the Fat is a Spirit affinity Epic Champion from the Barbarian faction that is a strong single target Debuffer and DPS champion. He mostly shines in content where you face a single target enemy such as DT Bosses and the Clan Boss. He has the ability to place Decrease Defense on his A1 and two 5% Poisons and HP Burn on his A2 which are crucial DPS Debuffs in that type of content. Finally, he has a burst DPS through an Ally Attack ability which also places an Increase Crit Rate and Crit Damage buff on your allies.

Booking Fahrakin is a must to reduce cooldowns and increase the debuff chance of his abilities.

This guide will showcase Fahrakin three different Clan Boss teams, an Easy Double Maneater, Budget Unkillable, and a standard non-unkillable Counterattack team, Dragon 25, Fire Knight 25, and Faction Wars.

Masteries

Masteries on Fahrakin are straightforward. We will first select the Offense tree and take the standard Offense CB Masteries in Crit Rate, Crit Damage, all the CB damage increasing masteries on the left down to T6 Warmaster. Lifedrinker is also important so he can use life steal to gain enough health to trigger the Counterattack mastery which we will be taking in the Defense Tree.

We will then select the Defense Tree, take the Damage mitigation mastery in Tough Skin, Blastproof, Delayed Death into the T5 Defense mastery Retribution and Deterrence Counterattack masteries.

Gear & Stats Build

In an Easy Double Maneater build, the most important stat to consider is speed. You need him to be at the speed required for this team’s speed tune and each champion has set speed corridors. Once you achieve the required speed, build with enough accuracy to land his debuffs. At least 225+ for UNM. Then you can build him with 100% Crit Rate and as much Atk and Crit Damage as possible. Note that he does not place Increase Crit Rate Buff on himself when he uses his ability so you still need to build him with 100% Crit Rate. The build shown here is built with 70% Crit Rate only because the other champion used in this team is Kreela and she places the Increase Crit Rate Buff on him.

As for sets, the best one to use on him is Reflex to cycle his cooldowns faster. If you are not able to build him in Reflex, Retaliation is also a good option as his A1 places Decrease Def. Otherwise, any other stat increasing set such as Speed, Accuracy, Perception, Cruel, Crit Damage, etc will be fine. Refresh Accessories are also extremely valuable on him for a chance to refresh the cooldown of his abilities. It is worth sacrificing some stats to get the Refresh Accessories instead.

Recommended Main Stats

  • Glove: Crit Damage %
  • Chest: ATK %
  • Boots: ATK %/Speed
  • Ring: ATK
  • Amulet: Crit Damage
  • Banner: ATK/Accuracy

Team Composition

This is an example of the Easy Double Maneater team that features Jintoro, Fahrakin the Fat, and Kreela as the DPS champions. The speeds used for this team are:

  1. 163 Jintoro – provides the Decrease Defense, Weaken and DPS.
  2. 172 Fahrakin – brings additional Poison and HP Burn Debuffs, Ally Attack, and Increase Crit Rate and Crit Damage Buff to the team.
  3. 174 Kreela – provides Ally Attack, Increase Attack and Crit Rate buff for the all Attack-based team.
  4. 219 Maneater – Provides the Unkillable buffs
  5. 215 Maneater – Provides the Unkillable buffs

The is a team combination that takes advantage Kreela’s and Fahrakin’s increase Crit Rate buff allowing the team to be built with 70% Crit Rate. This allows everyone in this team to be built much better with the reduced stat requirement.

Gear & Stats Build

For the Budget Unkillable build, it will be very similar to the previous build where the most important stat to consider is speed. You need him to be at the speed required for this team’s speed tune. Once you achieve the required speed, build him with enough accuracy to land his debuffs. At least 225+ for UNM. You also need to consider his Defense and HP level so that your slowboy of choice becomes the stun target. Then, you can build him with 100% Crit Rate and as much Atk and Crit Damage as possible. Note that he does not place Increase Crit Rate Buff on himself when he uses his ability so, you still need to build him with 100% Crit Rate.

As for sets, you CANNOT build him with Reflex set for this team as he needs to use his cooldowns at the right time for the comp to be in tune. Retaliation will then be the best option for a chance to counterattack as his A1 places Dec Def. Otherwise, any other stat increasing set such as Speed, Accuracy, Perception, Cruel, Crit Damage, etc will be fine. Refresh Accessories should also be avoided as we cannot refresh his ability cooldowns to stay in tune.

Recommended Main Stats

  • Glove: Crit Damage %
  • Chest: ATK %
  • Boots: ATK %/Speed
  • Ring: ATK
  • Amulet: Crit Damage
  • Banner: ATK/Accuracy
Fahrakin the Fat in the Budget Unkillable Comp build

Team Composition

This is an example of a Budget Unkillable team that features Geomancer as the Slowboy/Stun target with Fayne and Fahrakin as the other 2 DPS champions. The speed settings used for this team are:

  1. 123 Geomancer – the slow boy and also applies HP Burn with Reflect Damage for DPS.
  2. 172 Fahrakin – applies Poisons and Ally Attack. He is tuned so he doesn’t interfere with Geomancer’s HP Burn.
  3. 232 Fayne – applies the DPS Debuffs in Dec Def, Weaken, and Poisons.
  4. 253 Maneater – Places Unkillable Buffs
  5. 223 Pain keeper – Decreases CD and Heals at the right timing for this comp to work

This is the Ally Attack variation of the budget unkillable team hence why it has different speeds than the usual budget unkillable team. A different speed tune has to be used because Pain Keeper will gain TM on her A1 when she’s part of the Ally Attack.

The flaw of this team is that it does not work on Magic affinity because Geomancer is positive affinity, and the CB will not choose him as the stun target. You will need to swap to Spirit affinity stun target for the team to work. You also need to make speed adjustments for other difficulty.

Gear & Stats Build

For a Non-Unkillable build, you need to build Farahkin differently. You must prioritize building him for survivability rather than damage. Once you achieve the necessary survivability stats, then you can focus on damage.

Ideally around 4.2k Defense for UNM, 3.5k for NM are wanted, with at least 225 accuracy to land his debuffs and enough speed to match your CB speed tune. If your team is able to have 60% Increase Def up for the AOEs, you can lower the Defense to around 2.7k instead. Once you hit those stats, you can build him with 100% Crit Rate with as much ATK and Crit Damage as possible.

If your team does not have a source of healing, Lifesteal based sets are a must have for him. You can then complete the set with any stat increasing sets such as Speed, Perception, or Defense or broken pieces to achieve the necessary stats.

Recommended Main Stats

  • Glove: Crit Rate % /Crit Damage % / Defense %
  • Chest: Defense %
  • Boots: Speed / Defense %
  • Ring: Defense / Attack
  • Amulet: Crit Damage / Defense
  • Banner: Accuracy / Defense / Attack

The Farahkin in this build has 2.8k Defense because the team he’ll be used in has a 60% Increase Def Buff

Counter-Attack CB Team

This is an example of a Standard Counter-attack team with Fahrakin. The champions used and their speeds are as follow:

  1. Sepulcher Sentinel 239 – She blocks the affinity debuff and stun, provides Increase Defense Buff, and places the important Decrease Attack debuff on the CB.
  2. Rhazin 175 – Places Decrease Defense and Weaken Debuff on the CB and is the main DPS.
  3. Fahrakin 226 – Places Poison and HP Burn Debuffs, Burst DPS with an Ally Attack ability that also places Increase Crit Rate and Crit Damage buff to the team. Tuned to go on a 4:3 ratio he uses his abilities at the optimal timing.
  4. Godseeker Aniri 172 – Provides Buff Extension so the team has will have the Increase Def, Block Debuff, Increase Crit Rate and Increase Crit Damage permanently.
  5. Skullcrusher 171 – Provides Counterattack and Ally Protection

Fahrakin the Fat Late Game Dungeon Runs

Dragon 25

Apart from CB, Fahrakin can also be used in some Dungeon content and Faction Wars. In Dragon 25, he provides burst DPS through his Ally Attack as well as Poison Debuffs that are great against the Dragon. In this example team, he is used in a standard Nuking team which has the following team comp:

  1. Arbiter provides Increase Attack, Healing, Revive if case anything goes wrong.
  2. Venus provides AOE Decrease Def and Weaken with Poisons against the Dragon.
  3. Ma’shalled provides Increase Speed Buff, AOE Fear for control, Leech for some team lifesteal, and DPS.
  4. Konstantin provides raw DPS to clear the Waves and Boss.
  5. Fahrakin provides the utility described above

Fire Knight 25

Fahrakin is usable in Fire Knight 25. His Ally Attack can help with either burst DPS or help take down the Fire Knight’s shield faster. In this example team, he is used in a standard Nuking team which has the following team comp:

  1. Arbiter provides Increase Attack, Healing, Revive if case anything goes wrong.
  2. Stag Knight provides AOE Decrease Def and Decrease Attack with A1 Decrease Speed against the Fire Knight.
  3. Alure with her multi-hit A1 to take down the shield and TM reduction to keep the Fire Knight from taking a turn.
  4. Konstantin provides raw DPS to clear the Waves and nuke the Fire Knight.
  5. Fahrakin provides the utility described above

Faction Wars

Barbarian Faction Wars 21 is not very difficult since everyone gets Scyl of the Drakes which carries the faction hard but we still need a champion to do DPS to take down the boss. Farahkin fits that role perfectly. This is an example of an extremely budget FW21 that can full auto clear this faction at a reasonably fast time. We have:

  1. Scyl of the Drakes providing AOE heal, AOE stuns, Revives when someone dies.
  2. Valla for AOE Decrease Def and some DPS.
  3. Warmaiden for AOE Decrease Def.
  4. Soulbond Bowyer in Stun set for AOE CC.
  5. Fahrakin the Fat providing single target Burst DPS and DPS Debuffs against the boss.
