Raid Shadow Legends: Shirimani Champion Guide

Shirimani is a legendary force affinity champion from the high elves faction in Raid Shadow Legends. She features a range of impressive skills, including her AOE freeze ability which is amazing for controlling enemies in the game. This works best when she is the second champion in your team to go, behind a speed booster, allowing her to lock your enemies out. Allowing your damage dealers to step in and begin nuking the opposition. Shirimani works great in a number of places, but her biggest uses include the spider dungeon, faction wars, arena and Dreadhorn hard doom tower. We will cover all of these areas in detail during this guide, providing the necessary strategy and tactics used to get efficient clears.

Shirimani End Game Build Guide

Shirimani is a Force Affinity Legendary Support champion from the High Elves Faction. She has the ability to 100% AOE Freeze on her A3 which also boosts her TM by 10% for each enemy hit, a large teamwide heal on her A2, and a random triple hit A1 with a small chance to Freeze. She has a relatively simple kit and while she is not a top tier champion, she does have her uses in some areas of the game and have recently come to shine against one of the new and toughest Doom Tower boss, Bommal the Dreadhorn.

Her A3 is the only ability that needs to be fully booked for a 100% chance to Freeze and lower cooldown. Her A1 and A2 don’t need to be booked but since they require few books compared to her A3, you will most likely hit some books on them anyway. This guide will showcase Shirimani in the areas where she can be most useful in, Hard Doom Tower 90 Bommal the Dreadhorn, Spider 25, Arena and Faction Wars 21.

Masteries

Masteries on Shirimani are not necessary but if you do decide to give her masteries, Offense and Support Tree are suggested. Since her most important use will be for Bommal, we will be taking the T6 Warmaster Mastery in the Offense tree. She will not be built to do damage so the other offense masteries along the way don’t really matter but we will take the standard PVE damage increasing masteries on the left.

In the Support tree, we will take the Accuracy masteries since we will need a high amount of Accuracy for Bommal into Lore of Steel, Cycle of Magic and Lasting Gifts. An important thing to note is that we want to avoid Evil Eye as we do not want to decrease Bommal’s TM which summons Dreadbombs.

Gear & Stats Build

Shirimani has found a niche use in the latest Doom Tower Rotation against Bommal the Dreadhorn. This boss is by far the hardest DT Boss released and Shirimani’s kit to AOE Freeze the Dreadbombs and Heal your allies have proven to be very useful against Bommal.

Gearing Shirimani specifically for Bommal will be quite unique. This is a nasty boss that strips our buffs and replaces them with bomb debuffs. For the strategy Shirimani is used in, we will need to build our champions with high resistance.

We want to build our champs with 400+ resistance for floor 90 on hard. Then, she will need accuracy to freeze the Dreadbombs, around 250+ accuracy. Next, she need to be fast, around 220+ speed. Then, build her with as much HP and Def as possible. You can use any stat increasing sets such as Perception, Resistance, Accuracy, Speed, etc to achieve the required stats. Deflection set could be an excellent end game option if you have it.

Recommended Main Stats

  • Glove: HP%/Def%
  • Chest: Resistance
  • Boots: Speed
  • Ring: HP/Def
  • Amulet: HP/Def
  • Banner: Resistance

Hard Dreadhorn 90

Bommal the Dreadhorn is the toughest Doom Tower Boss released so far. His mechanics of placing Bomb debuffs, Stripping buffs and replacing them with bombs, summoning Dreadbombs which deal pure 40% Max HP damage, summons more Dreadbombs if his TM is decreased, and having an insane amount of Accuracy just to name a few of his mechanics make him extremely difficult to face.

The strategy used against Hard Bommal 90 in this guide is a Resistance team that places Decrease Accuracy debuff on Bommal for the entire fight so we can negate the bombs and the buff strip he does. For this strategy we have the following champions:

  1. Wurlim places the Dec Accuracy Debuff. This ability cannot be resisted so he doesn’t need to be built with high accuracy leaving space for his other stats. He also has a chance to freeze the Dreadbombs with his A1.
  2. Vizier places Dec Atk and Block Buffs to reduce incoming damage and prevent Bommal from placing Inc Atk buff on himself. Has the key role of extending the debuffs and making sure that they don’t fall off.
  3. Brogni provides protection against the team through his shield which also heals the team when they take damage. His aura also increases everyone’s Resistance.
  4. Rector Drath provides heals and revives incase anyone dies. Her passive also increases everyone’s Resistance.
  5. Shirimani AOE Freezes the Dreadbombs to reduce their damage and has a chance to freeze with her A1. Provides teamwide heals.

This team has to be fully manualed. This team also does not have any damage dealer. Damage is done entirely from Masteries, WM and GS, hence the long time it takes for this to work.

Spider 25

Apart from Hard Doom Tower, there are a few other areas in the game where Shirimani can be used. In dungeons, her best spot will be a part of a Spider 25 speed team. Since Spider 21+ can no longer be Max HP Nuked efficiently, HP burn strategies are now the way to go so, controlling the Spiderlings becomes very important and her AOE Freeze does just that. Importantly Freeze reduces the damage taken to ensure the spiderlings don’t die too quickly.

This is an example of a Spider 25 Speedfarm with Shirimani performing the role described above. Alongside Shirimani, we have:

  1. Prince Kymar for his Reset ability, crucial to speed farming teams. Can be replaced with a Renegade.
  2. Tyrant Ixlimor for AOE HP Burn.
  3. Sicia Flame Tongue for her AOE HP Burn explosion to deal massive damage.
  4. Coldheart for her trademark Heart Seeker to deplete TM and deal some Max Hp Damage

This team is speedtuned to line up their skill properly resulting in a 15-18s run.

Faction Wars 21

The High Elves Factions Wars Stage 21 is not very difficult once you get Arbiter. So, while Shirimani doesn’t really add much to the team, she can be used if you don’t have many other High Elves. She makes the run extremely safe and easy with her AOE Freeze and heal. She will not help with damage so you still need damage dealers in your High Elves FW team. The other champions in this team incluide:

  1. Battlesage
  2. Heiress
  3. Arbiter
  4. Royal Huntsman

Arena Teams: Gold 4

Shirimani can also be used in Arena as an AOE CC champion for Mid-Late Game G4 Arena. She will be useful if you cannot build your other champions fast enough to go right after your Speed Booster allowing the enemy team to cut in. She still needs to be built fast enough to go right after your Speed booster so she herself doesn’t get cut in by the enemies. This allows the other 2 champions going after her not need to be stringently speedtuned and may negate the Reaction accessories.

You will need to adjust her build if you want to use her for Arena. Build her fast enough to go right after your Speed Booster and with as much accuracy as possible so she lands her AOE Freeze. She will fall of the more advanced you are in the game due to Immunity Sets and High Resistance Teams. She is also Force Affinity that is weak to Duchess, a meta champion in High Level Arena.

The team below shows an example of a non-speed tuned team utilizing Shirimani as a bridge between the Speed Booster, Arbiter and the Nukers, Genzin and Fu-shan in Gold 4 Arena.
