How to Counter Arc Warden

Magnetic Field evades outside attacks while Spark Wraith and Flux wear targets down, and Tempest Double doubles that output. Flux deals no damage when another enemy unit stands near the target, so grouped fighting blunts it. Attacks that pierce evasion or come from inside the field bypass Magnetic Field.

Counter items

  • Monkey King BarAttacks pierce the evasion that Magnetic Field grants to allies inside it.
  • Black King BarSpell immunity blocks Flux and Spark Wraith.
