An assassin of the Shadow Clan and the daughter of the high-profile member, Deathbringer. When she was young, she was often ignored because everyone treated her as a case of nepotism. Through sheer perseverance, she managed to earn the respect of others, but the emotional scars from childhood keep her reticent and guarded, save for her friend Sera. After her father's assassination, she is now on a quest for vengeance against Kyle, one of the Four Lords of Old.
Ballista Guide
Curse application on crits + +50% dmg vs Defense types
No team support, limited survivability
Ballista is a Ranged DPS hero from the Shadow Clan with a modest kit centered around Curse application. Her Critical Hit Attack inflicts Curse on successful hits, preventing the target from recovering HP for 5 seconds. Combined with her passive that grants +50% final damage against Defense Type enemies, she has some niche utility in specific matchups.
However, her overall impact is limited. She lacks team buffs, strong burst damage, or unique mechanics that would elevate her above the current meta. Her Curse application on crits is useful for DoT-focused teams, but there are stronger heroes that provide the same or better utility without the investment requirements.
Strengths
Weaknesses
Why Ballista Stands Out
Ballista's niche lies in her Curse application combined with her passive damage bonus against Defense types. For players building DoT-centric teams, she can serve as a budget Curse applicator, though higher-tier alternatives exist. Her specialty is narrow but functional for specific team compositions.
Recommended Synergies
Best Game Modes
- Codex only — limited use in other content due to her niche kit and lack of competitive damage.
Build & Optimization
Prioritize Critical Hit Rate to ensure consistent Curse application on critical hits. Once Crit Rate is capped, focus on Crit Damage and Attack to maximize her damage output. She works well in Deep Nightmare and Hard boss challenge content when paired with DoT-focused teams.
