Choose a unit and trait to compare the estimated impact.

Trait result

How to read the result

  1. Use Monarch as a one-placement carry estimate, not a universal team answer.
  2. Use Ethereal when broad damage plus faster SPA matters more than one-placement ceiling.
  3. Use Solar or Marksman when range fixes leaks, support coverage, or awkward map pathing.
  4. Use Deadeye only after editing expected crit or special value for the unit and team.
  5. For Blitz, Vigor, Swift, and Range lines, edit the default percentage to match the exact roll.
