RAID Shadow Legends officially announced their next fragment event champion, Jetni the Giant, on May 4th 2023, and the events will start on the following Thursday, May 11th 2023.

Jetni the Giant is a Legendary Attack champion, in the Barbarians faction, who is Spirit affinity. It is very hard to predict the value of damage dealers when they are initially teased, because we need to know what the ability multipliers are in order to judge if they will have enough damage potential to be viable.

Once we know the damage multipliers, we will get her added to <a href="https://aftershockunited.gg/raid/champions" target="_blank">OUR OVERALL CHAMPIONS TIER LIST</a>, and also our <a href="https://aftershockunited.gg/raid/tierlists/fusion-fragment-champions-tier-list" target="_blank">FUSION &amp; FRAGMENT CHAMPIONS TIER LIST</a>.&nbsp;

A1: Splinter Steel

The first hit has a 30% (50% booked) chance of placing a [Stun] debuff for 1 turn. The second hit has a 30% (50% booked) chance of placing a 60% [Decrease DEF] debuff for 2 turns.

Needs 4 books, which provide 10% more damage and 20% more debuff chance.

&nbsp;

A2: Barrier Breach (4/3 Cooldown)

Attacks all enemies. Will ignore 20% of each target's DEF.&nbsp;

Has a 75% (100% booked) of placing a 60% [Decrease DEF] debuff for 2 turns. This debuff cannot be resisted if Alsgor Crimsonhelm is on the same team.

Needs 5 books that provide 20% more damage, 25% debuff chance, and 1 cooldown.

&nbsp;

A3: Barrier Breach (5/4 Cooldown)

Attacks all enemies 2 times.

Before attacking, places a 30% [Increase C.Rate] buff and a 30% [Increase C. Dmg] buff on this champion for 2 turns.

Grants an extra turn if this attack kills an enemy when Alsgor Crimsonhelm is on the same team.

Needs 3 books that provide 20% more damage and 1 cooldown.

&nbsp;

Passive: Nowhere to Hide

Inflicts 20% more damage against targets under [Shield] buffs. Will ignore [Shield] buffs if Alsgor Crimsonhelm is on the same team.

Jetni the Giant will be the 14th Legendary champion for the Barbarians, and the 5th Attack Champion. She will have a pretty reliable way to place some CC with her A1 ability being a multi-hitter that can [Stun] consistently, while also bringing [DEF Break] that will be very good in boss fight PvE content.

Her A2 is an AoE nuke that can naturally ignore 20% DEF, which is extremely good because most of the nukers in RAID that are rising to the top, have capability to naturally ignore opponent DEF.

The A3 is also another AoE with a self-buff before the attack, which is also very META right now, as we see damage dealers with self buff extra turn mechanics becoming very valuable in the Live Arena. Unfortunately, the extra turn will only proc if she gets a kill AND Alsgor Crimsonhelnm is on the same team.

As of writing this, we do not have any information on Alsgor Crimsonhelm, which will be a pretty big impact on Jetni's value as 3 of her abilities have tandem with him.

It is almost impossible to accurately predict her value within the game as of right now because we do not have 2 different components of crucial information, which are the multipliers, and how good Alsgor Crimsonhelm is. As soon as we have all the information we need, we'll have this article updated and get her graded on the <a href="https://aftershockunited.gg/raid/champions" target="_blank">OVERALL CHAMPIONS TIER LIST</a>.&nbsp;

jetnip2.webp...

First impressions from the community on announcement day for Jetni, shows the majority of people thinking she's decent or a bit underwhelming, garnering 82% of the vote between the 2 options in the middle.

RAID has announced it's newest fragment event, Jetni the Giant, including showcasing her abilities.

RAID's May 2023 Fragment Event for JETNI THE GIANT!...

RAID's May 2023 Fragment Event for JETNI THE GIANT!

This week’s <a href="https://www.raidshadowlegends.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Raid: Shadow Legends</a> summon boost is the kind of lineup that looks tempting at first glance, but it is not the same as a true 2x event. There are some genuinely strong champions in the pool, but there is also a big difference between a champion that would be nice to have and one that would actually move an account forward in a meaningful way. 

The event starts on Thursday, April 23, 2026, and the featured pool includes Swarmspeaker Zyclic, Mavara the Web Diviner, Venalicia Thrallmother, Morrigaine, Helicath, Queen of Hearts, Siphi the Lost Bride, Wight King Narses, Doompriest, Husk, Anax, Whisper, and Madame Serris. For players trying to decide whether to pull or hold, the real question is not whether the pool is good. It is whether the pool is good enough for your account right now.

 <img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RFGVCWuCXFo/hqdefault.jpg" alt="Reviewing ALL The Champions on This Week's Boost">
 </a> 

Legendary Champions Breakdown 

Swarmspeaker Zyclic is the most interesting long-shot target in the pool simply because he is a Dark Elves Unity champion. Unity champions are still awkward to acquire, and that alone gives him more value than his day-to-day meta usage might suggest. His kit is built around punishing enemies who are debuffed or unbuffed, and he can hit very hard in the right setup. The issue is that he is still fairly specialized. He looks more like a fun damage option with strong faction synergy than a must-pull account changer. If you care about Dark Elves progression or you collect Unity champions, he is a reasonable target. If not, he is probably not the safest place to spend precious shards. 

Mavara the Web Diviner remains one of the stronger recent fusions. She brings support, protection, damage mitigation, Perfect Veil, Strengthen, healing, and strong overall utility for both PvE and PvP. She is not the flashy “one-button win” type of champion, but she is the kind of legendary that fits into a lot of teams and quietly improves them. If you already fused her, this boost mostly matters for players thinking about empowerment value or duplicate utility rather than first-time acquisition priority. 

Venalicia Thrallmother is one of the better all-around support legendaries in this entire pool. She strips buffs, places Block Buffs and Decrease DEF, brings a highly disruptive revive, and adds extra control by pushing enemy cooldowns back after reviving allies. That makes her valuable in wave content, Hydra-style setups, and longer fights where the battle can swing back and forth. She is not as universally prized as the absolute top Void legendaries, but she is a serious champion and one of the most practical targets on the list. 

Morrigaine is still one of the best specialists in the game when you specifically need Heal Reduction to stick. The protected 100% Heal Reduction at the start of each turn is what makes her stand out, especially in niche but important PvE scenarios where healing mechanics are the real problem. On top of that, she also brings turn meter utility, Increase SPD support, buff stealing, and extra control. She is not a top Arena chase in 2026, but for PvE accounts that need her particular toolkit, she is still excellent. 

Helicath is the kind of champion that does not need much introduction. Block Damage alone gives him enduring value, and his counterattacks, shield-based protection, and survivability keep him relevant well beyond his original release window. He is not brand new, but he is still a very useful pull for accounts that never got him, especially if they are trying to solve survivability problems or unlock safer boss strategies. 

Queen of Hearts is arguably the headline champion in this boost from a pure power perspective. She brings control, buff disruption, True Fear pressure, and the unique Deathbrand mechanic, while also offering top-tier ally attack value. She is one of those champions who can swing fights fast and fits both PvP and selected PvE setups extremely well. For players who care most about getting the highest-end impact from the pool, she belongs right near the top of the list. 

Siphi the Lost Bride is no longer the unquestioned terror she once was, but writing her off would still be a mistake. She remains an elite support thanks to her revive, speed control, cleanse, protection, and all-round utility. Even in a harsher modern arena environment, Siphi is still excellent, and outside of top-end PvP she remains a fantastic champion to own. She is not the newest shiny toy, but she is still Siphi. 

Wight King Narses is a much narrower target than Queen of Hearts or Siphi, but in the right role he is still brutal. His value is highest in Arena, especially against shield-heavy teams and especially when paired with Ankora. If your account is PvP-focused and you already have the right supporting cast, he is a serious prize. If your account is mostly PvE-focused, his value drops compared to the broader support options in the same pool.

&nbsp;

Epic Champions Breakdown 

Doompriest is still one of the cleanest “just works” epics in Raid. Passive cleansing every turn, steady healing, and straightforward usability keep her relevant for a wide range of accounts. If you still do not have her, she is one of the easiest epics in this pool to justify. 

Husk remains valuable because enemy MAX HP damage never really goes out of style when a fight calls for it. He is not a universal answer, but he still hits hard in the right content and remains worth pulling for accounts that lack strong boss damage options. 

Anax is still a very respectable progression damage dealer, especially for Demon Lord Clan Boss setups and accounts that need poison damage plus key debuffs in one champion. He is not the flashy star of the pool, but he is useful. 

Whisper is the standout epic prize. Against bosses, she remains one of the best epics in the entire game. Extra turns, Ignore DEF mechanics, and absurd single-target boss damage give her staying power even as the roster keeps expanding. She is gear-hungry, but if you can build her well, she absolutely pays you back. 

Madame Serris is not at the same absolute endgame Arena pedestal she once occupied, but that does not make her bad. She is still one of the best epic setup champions around thanks to her full-team strip into Decrease ATK and Decrease DEF. For a huge number of accounts, she is still a very good pull.

&nbsp;

Best Champions to Target From This Boost 

If the goal is maximum overall impact, the best legendary targets are Queen of Hearts, Venalicia Thrallmother, and Siphi the Lost Bride, with Swarmspeaker Zyclic becoming much more attractive for players who specifically care about Dark Elves Unity value. 

If the goal is PvP-first value, Queen of Hearts and Wight King Narses stand out the most, while Siphi still remains a very strong all-purpose support.

If the goal is epic value, Whisper is the best pull in the pool, followed by Madame Serris and Doompriest depending on what your account is missing. 

If the goal is strict efficiency, though, it is still fair to say this is a good 15x event rather than an automatic all-in event. There are excellent champions here, but the format itself is still doing a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to temptation.

&nbsp;

What This Event Is 

This is a Progressive Chance summon boost. That means you assign featured champions to summon slots, and if you do pull a champion of that rarity from the relevant shard, the game gives you an increased chance to land the one you selected. In other words, the boost helps after you hit the right rarity. It does not work like a 2x event that increases your base chance to pull a legendary or epic in the first place. 

That distinction matters. A 15x progressive event can still leave players with nothing useful if they were already on weak odds to begin with. So even when the featured pool is strong, the format is still a gamble first and a targeted event second.

&nbsp;

How to Do It Efficiently 

The smartest way to approach this boost is to be honest about what your account actually needs: 

<ul>
 <li>Pull if you are already committed to shard use for a Titan, Path, or related point event and one of these champions would be a genuine upgrade.</li>
 <li>Pull if you are specifically chasing Queen of Hearts, Swarmspeaker Zyclic, or one of the high-value epics and you are comfortable with progressive-event risk.</li>
 <li>Skip if you are low on shards, waiting on a true 2x, or saving for a more account-defining target.</li>
 <li>Do not treat the words “15x boost” as a guarantee. It is still easy to miss the champion you want, even from a strong pool.</li>
</ul>

 The cleanest play for most accounts is simple: if you were not planning to pull anyway, this event probably should not be the one that breaks your discipline. If you were already going to spend shards this week, then this is at least a respectable pool to do it on.

&nbsp;

Conclusion 

This week’s 15x boost has real quality in it, especially with Queen of Hearts at the top end, Swarmspeaker Zyclic for Unity hunters, and Whisper as the standout epic value. Venalicia Thrallmother, Siphi the Lost Bride, Morrigaine, and Helicath also give the event more substance than a typical filler boost. 

That said, this is still a progressive event, and that means discipline matters more than hype. If your account has a clear target here and you were already planning to pull, there is value on the table. If not, this is probably one to admire more than one to chase.

RAID 15x Boost Guide: Best Champions to Target This Week

The latest <a href="https://www.raidshadowlegends.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Raid: Shadow Legends</a> news is worth paying attention to because two reward tracks are launching together on Thursday, April 23, 2026. An Anomalous Titan Event is set to offer Perfect Souls for Embrys the Anomaly, while a linked Hero’s Path is set to offer a Perfect Soul for Mavara the Web Diviner, extra Titan Points, and additional resources.

&nbsp;

This matters for two reasons. First, Embrys remains one of the more meaningful Mythical soul targets in the game because his value in Arena and Chimera is still tied heavily to how hard he scales through his kit. Second, the event includes a Fusion Token, which gives long-term account value beyond the soul rewards alone. Even for players who do not intend to push every milestone, this is not the kind of event that should be ignored casually.

&nbsp;

 <img src="https://img.youtube.com/vi/-w2YOAe9cWE/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="We HAVE To Talk About The TITAN &amp; PATH Event!" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;">
 </a>



&nbsp;

<h2>Event Start Date and Main Rewards</h2> 

According to the announcement discussed in the video, the two event tracks begin on April 23, 2026. The Titan side offers up to 1,750 Titan Points, while only 1,500 points are needed to clear all milestone rewards. That gives some room for missed points, but not enough to ignore the linked Hero’s Path entirely.

&nbsp;

The main Titan milestones include: 

• Embrys the Anomaly 1-Star Perfect Soul 
• Embrys the Anomaly 3-Star Perfect Soul 
• Embrys the Anomaly 5-Star Perfect Soul 
• Fusion Token 
• Additional resources

&nbsp;

The linked Hero’s Path includes: 

• 5-Star Perfect Soul for Mavara the Web Diviner 
• 400 Titan Points 
• New avatar frame 
• Additional resources

&nbsp;

That 400-point crossover is the key detail. Since the Titan event gives 250 spare points above the 1,500-point requirement, at least some Hero’s Path participation is likely needed if the goal is the full Embrys 5-Star soul track.

&nbsp;

<h2>Why Embrys the Anomaly Still Matters</h2> 

Embrys the Anomaly is still a high-impact Mythical champion even if the PvP meta has shifted. His base form remains dangerous because he applies and activates Necrosis, converts enemy buffs into mirrored debuffs, strips Stone Skin, and punishes teams relying on buff-heavy protection. In alternate form, he transitions into an HP-based damage dealer with conditional double hits, scaling ignore defense, and strong finishing power.

&nbsp;

The biggest reason this soul event has real value is simple: Mythical souls are still awkward to acquire consistently. Embrys is not just another damage dealer. He is a champion whose kit stays relevant because he attacks the structure of the fight itself by punishing buffs, threatening turn meter control, and applying pressure through Necrosis over time.

&nbsp;

In practice, that means this Titan reward is strongest for players who already use Embrys in Arena, Live Arena, Chimera, or high-level PvE content and have been waiting for meaningful awakening progress. Even if some players feel he has lost a little ground in the current Mercurial-heavy environment, a guaranteed path toward higher awakening is still valuable because it is far more reliable than waiting on random soul systems.

&nbsp;

<h2>Why Mavara’s Soul Is Worth Looking At</h2> 

Mavara the Web Diviner is the April 2026 mixed fusion Legendary, and her kit already looks like it was designed to stay relevant in both PvP and PvE. She brings Strengthen, Increase RES, HP equalization, a single-target revive with turn meter fill, team protection through Perfect Veil, and a passive that rewards teams stacking buffs. On top of that, her Arena Aura boosts ally Speed by 28%.

&nbsp;

Her A1 is especially interesting because it places Fervor and creates extra ally-attack style pressure whenever Fervor allies are already set up. That gives her scaling offensive value beyond being a pure defensive support. A 5-Star Perfect Soul for a fusion champion with this kind of broad utility is a serious reward, especially for players who finished the fusion and want to build her immediately for Arena, Siege, or general progression teams.

&nbsp;

<h2>The Fusion Token Is a Bigger Deal Than It Looks</h2> 

The Fusion Token may end up being the part of this event with the longest shelf life. The system allows players to swap a current eligible fusion for an older fusion champion, but tokens are limited and only come from certain fusion formats. Classic fusions and mixed fusions award tokens, while fragment-only fusions do not. Tier 3 champions cost 1 token, Tier 2 cost 2, and Tier 1 cost 3, although the real cost is effectively one token higher if you were going to complete the original fusion anyway because you give up the token you would have earned.

&nbsp;

That is why the extra token in this event is not filler. It adds future flexibility. If a weaker fusion arrives later, players holding tokens are in a better spot to pivot into something more account-changing instead of forcing a champion they do not really need.

&nbsp;

<h2><a href="https://rsl-x.vercel.app/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">RSL-X</a> Is One of the Best Ways to Plan This Event</h2> 

One of the smartest takeaways here is the recommendation to use <a href="https://rsl-x.vercel.app/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">RSL-X</a>. The site is built around planning and progression tools for <a href="https://www.raidshadowlegends.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Raid: Shadow Legends</a>, and its utility list includes Titan event planning, Hero’s Path planning, fusion tracking, a champion index, and an efficiency lab for estimating the energy or gem cost of hitting event goals.

&nbsp;

For this specific event cycle, that matters because there is overlap between milestone goals and opportunity cost. Players need to know whether they are chasing just enough Hero’s Path points to stay on Titan pace, or whether they are committing to both the Mavara soul and the Embrys soul track. A planning tool is often the difference between efficient progress and wasting shards, silver, or gear inventory at the wrong time.

&nbsp;

<h2>How Titan Events Work</h2> 

Titan Events are long-format milestone events that run across multiple labeled tournaments and events. Instead of farming one menu only, players gather Titan Points from specially marked activities over the course of the event. Those points unlock milestone rewards in sequence, and the final rewards are usually only reachable through steady participation rather than one quick push.

&nbsp;

The important part is that Titan Points can only be earned while the Titan event is active, and the game clearly marks which events and tournaments contribute points. That makes planning more important than usual, because skipping the wrong side event can leave an account short later even if plenty of energy or shards remain.

&nbsp;

<h2>Hero’s Path Requirements and What to Expect</h2> 

The linked Hero’s Path awards progress from getting artifacts and accessories and from summoning champions from shards. That means this is not a simple energy-only side event. It will likely ask players to balance dungeon farming, inventory timing, and shard usage if they want the better parts of the tree.

&nbsp;

Because 400 Titan Points sit inside that path, completely ignoring it is a bad idea for anyone aiming at the top Embrys milestone. The practical question is not whether to touch the Hero’s Path at all. The real question is how deep to go without overspending resources for rewards that do not match your account goals.

&nbsp;

<h2>How to Approach the Event Efficiently</h2> 

The safest approach is to decide your real target first.

&nbsp;

Option 1: Full Embrys push 
If the goal is the 5-Star Embrys Perfect Soul, plan around the full 1,500 Titan Point requirement and assume you will need meaningful Hero’s Path participation. This is the best route for established accounts that already use Embrys regularly or value Mythical soul progression highly.

&nbsp;

Option 2: Mavara-focused value route 
If you fused Mavara and want immediate value from her, aim for the best breakpoints on the Hero’s Path while still taking the easier Titan points along the way. This route makes sense for players who are more interested in a strong support Legendary than in chasing a full Mythical soul track.

&nbsp;

Option 3: Resource preservation route 
If your shards are low and your silver is shaky, focus on efficient Titan points from overlapping events and only dip into Hero’s Path as far as your account can support without wrecking future plans. The event looks attractive, but Titan events have a habit of punishing players who commit emotionally before checking the resource math.

&nbsp;

A few common-sense priorities stand out: 

• Track every available Titan source before spending shards. 
• Do not assume the 250-point cushion means the Hero’s Path can be skipped. 
• Farm artifacts with a clear silver plan so gear management does not become the bottleneck. 
• Use a planner like RSL-X to check whether a reward branch is actually efficient before committing to it. 
• Treat the Fusion Token as part of the value calculation, not as a throwaway extra.

&nbsp;

<h2>Conclusion</h2> 

This is one of the more interesting recent event pairings in <a href="https://www.raidshadowlegends.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Raid: Shadow Legends</a> because it combines immediate champion value with long-term account value. Embrys the Anomaly remains worth investing in, Mavara the Web Diviner already looks like a strong fusion champion to build around, and the Fusion Token gives this event more staying power than a normal soul chase.

&nbsp;

The bottom line is simple: if an account has Embrys, this Titan event deserves a serious look. If an account fused Mavara, the Hero’s Path is attractive on its own. If both apply, planning matters more than ever, and this is exactly the kind of event where using a tool like RSL-X can save a lot of wasted resources.

RAID Titan and Path Event Guide for Embrys, Mavara and Rewar...

RAID Titan and Path Event Guide for Embrys, Mavara and Rewards

This week’s <a href="https://www.raidshadowlegends.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Raid: Shadow Legends</a> update brings a strong mix of new-player value, progressive summon targets, and an important Arena discussion around Vulkanos. The headline for fresh accounts is simple: promo code WRATH gives Grand Oak Padraig, which is one of the strongest starter boosts new players have had in a long time. On top of that, the <a href="https://pl.go-ga.me/vmfwkbxi" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">download link</a> points toward extra early-account value through Tholin, Uugo, and Rector Drath, making this one of the better starting windows Raid has offered in recent memory.

&nbsp;

For existing players, the bigger talking point is the Arena meta. Vulkanos was one of the most feared PvP champions in the game, but the rise of Mercurial gear and its Total Guard effect has clearly changed how reliable HP Burn pressure champions feel in top-end play. That does not mean Vulkanos is dead. It means he is no longer the automatic answer he once was.

&nbsp;

<a href="https://youtu.be/s6lvaFnHSKc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://img.youtube.com/vi/s6lvaFnHSKc/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="Is Vulkanos Bad Now? Raid News &amp; New Player Promo!" width="560"></a>

&nbsp;

WRATH Promo Code and New Player Download Link 

If you are starting a brand-new account, this is the biggest immediate takeaway from the update. The recommendation here is to use: 

Promo Code: WRATH
Champion: Grand Oak Padraig
Download Link: <a href="https://pl.go-ga.me/vmfwkbxi" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://pl.go-ga.me/vmfwkbxi</a>

&nbsp;

The featured <a href="https://pl.go-ga.me/vmfwkbxi" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">download link</a> is positioned around Tholin, Uugo, and Rector Drath, while WRATH adds Grand Oak Padraig for new accounts. That is a very serious early-game package because it gives a new player access to control, support, healing, reviving, and account progression value far earlier than normal. Uugo remains one of the best utility epics in Raid, Rector Drath is still excellent for sustain and revive support, and Grand Oak Padraig is valuable well beyond the early game thanks to the quality of his support kit.

&nbsp;

For anyone making a second account, referral account, or helping a friend start the game, this is the kind of opening setup that can save weeks of account-building time.

&nbsp;

Demonspawn Progressive Event Overview 

The first progressive event in this update is built around Demonspawn and lines up with CvC. The most notable names are Vulkanos, Duchess Lilitu, Pravda, Wythir the Crowned, Krisk, Trunda Giltmallet, Nethril, and Shalk the Blind, along with epics such as Allure, Magnarr, Vlad the Impaler, Skimfos, and Peydma.

&nbsp;

From a pure value standpoint, the best headline target remains Vulkanos if you do not already own him. Even after the meta shift, he still brings a rare kind of pressure that can punish buff-heavy teams. Duchess Lilitu remains a premium support option, Pravda looks more useful than many players give her credit for, Trunda is still Trunda, and Shalk the Blind is a legitimately strong option for players who want value in both PvP and PvE.

&nbsp;

Among the epics, Allure and Magnarr stand out most for progression. Allure still brings one of the best turn meter control A1s in the game, especially for Fire Knight style encounters, while Magnarr remains one of the strongest HP-based epic damage dealers available.

&nbsp;

Lizardmen Progressive Event Overview 

The next day shifts to Lizardmen, with the more eye-catching names including Teela Goremane, Kael, Nekhret the Great, Pythion, Fidi, Soothsayer, and Krisk the Ageless, plus epics like Venomage, Aox, Galek, and Skathix.

&nbsp;

This one is more account-dependent. Pythion is still one of the safest premium support champions in the game, particularly for players who want broad value across PvE and some PvP use. Krisk remains an elite pull. Fidi and Soothsayer both bring strong Hydra-style utility. For epics, Venomage is still excellent deep into progression, and Skathix retains niche value where Increase Resistance, cleanse utility, and progression support matter.

&nbsp;

The champion drawing special interest here is Kael, thanks to his poison-focused design and activation utility. For accounts that want poison pressure and debuff-based damage setups, he is a very relevant chase target.

&nbsp;

Is Vulkanos Bad Now? 

No. He is just no longer the uncontested terror he was when fewer players had answers.

&nbsp;

That is the real answer. Vulkanos is not a bad champion now. He is not even close to bad. What changed is the environment around him. Mercurial introduced Total Guard, a mechanic that can block an incoming hit and the attached effects, including things like HP Burn application from that interaction. As more players complete stronger Mercurial setups from Grim Forest, Vulkanos naturally loses some of the automatic pressure he used to bring into top-end Arena drafts.

&nbsp;

That matters most at the sharpest end of PvP. In high Live Arena and upper Platinum environments, players now know which champions are likely to be wearing Mercurial, and that changes draft decisions. If an opponent is leaning into common Mercurial carriers, Vulkanos becomes less attractive as a blind plan. That is the part many players are noticing.

&nbsp;

However, that does not mean he stopped being useful. Vulkanos still punishes buff-heavy teams, still benefits heavily from full Demonspawn synergy, and still has real value in Arena formats where you can pick your spots. He may not be the safest universal draft anymore, but he is absolutely still capable of winning fights when the matchup is right.

&nbsp;

That is really where the conversation should land: Vulkanos is no longer peak meta, but he is still dangerous. For many accounts, especially outside the very top layer of competitive PvP, he will still perform better than the current noise around him suggests.

&nbsp;

Why Vulkanos Still Works 

Vulkanos remains strong because his kit is still built around a nasty kind of passive pressure. As a Faction Unity champion, he scales much harder when surrounded by other Demonspawn allies. That gives him access to the full version of the toolkit that made him so threatening in the first place, including harder-to-stop HP Burn pressure and stronger finishing potential.

&nbsp;

He also benefits from one simple truth: not every fight is against a perfectly geared Mercurial-heavy defense. Plenty of Arena teams still leave windows open for him, and in formats like Tag Team Arena or selective Classic Arena offense, he can still farm wins when paired with the right allies. He is also the kind of champion who benefits from players getting too comfortable with the idea that he is “solved.” He is less common now, and sometimes that alone creates openings.

&nbsp;

Best Vulkanos Team Direction Right Now 

The best way to use Vulkanos now is not as a generic plug-and-play carry. The best way is to build around Demonspawn synergy and use him where the draft or enemy defense allows it. Support pieces that keep the team stable and let Vulkanos keep cycling through pressure remain the strongest route. This is also why all-Demonspawn Arena builds still have life, even if they are not the center of the meta anymore.

&nbsp;

In practical terms, that means using him more selectively. He is not the champion you throw into every matchup anymore. He is the champion you use when the opposing comp gives you room to punish buffs, turn meter boosts, or slower reactive setups.

&nbsp;

Should You Pull in These Progressive Events? 

The honest answer is the same one experienced players already know: only if it actually fits your account. Progressive events still do not change the basic odds reality enough to make them automatic value. If you are low on shards, not near mercy, and not targeting a specific account-changing champion, forcing the issue is usually a mistake.

&nbsp;

If you do not own Vulkanos and you want a high-impact Demonspawn PvP piece, he is still a fair target. If your account would benefit more from broad support value, players like Duchess, Pythion, Krisk, or certain top epics may be the smarter focus depending on where you are in progression. The point is not whether the event is “bait.” The point is whether the target solves a real problem on your account.

&nbsp;

What This Event Is and How to Do It Efficiently 

This is a 15x Progressive Chance event, which means you first choose a featured champion, then increase your chances of pulling that champion if you pull a champion of the same rarity from the shard. It does not mean you are guaranteed to get that champion, and it does not remove the normal pain of pulling the wrong rarity or missing the target entirely.

&nbsp;

The most efficient way to handle events like this is straightforward: 

1. Only pull if you are already planning to spend shards for a reason such as CvC value, mercy timing, or a genuine account need.
2. Pick a target that clearly improves your account instead of chasing hype.
3. Do not treat the boosted rate like a guarantee. It is still very possible to miss.
4. For brand-new accounts, the better value this week is often the new-player setup through the download link and WRATH code rather than gambling on shard pulls immediately.

&nbsp;

Conclusion 

Vulkanos is not bad now. He is simply living in a tougher Arena world than before. Mercurial gear has absolutely cut into his dominance, especially at the top end, but that is not the same thing as making him obsolete. He is still a dangerous Demonspawn centerpiece when used in the right matchup and with the right faction support around him.

&nbsp;

At the same time, the best immediate value in this update is probably for new players. Between the WRATH promo code for Grand Oak Padraig and the <a href="https://pl.go-ga.me/vmfwkbxi" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">new account download link</a> featuring Tholin, Uugo, and Rector Drath, this is one of the stronger new-player entry points Raid has offered in a while.

&nbsp;

For everyone else, this week is about being honest about your account. If Vulkanos fills a real need, he is still worth considering. If not, save your shards and move on.

Vulkanos may no longer dominate the Arena meta like he did before Mercurial gear arrived, but he is still far from useless. This RAID: Shadow Legends news guide covers the WRATH promo code, the new download link, this week's progressive summon events, and where Vulkanos still fits.">

Is Vulkanos Bad Now? Raid News, Promo Code and Meta Guide 20...

Is Vulkanos Bad Now? Raid News, Promo Code and Meta Guide 2026

The latest <a href="https://www.raidshadowlegends.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Raid: Shadow Legends</a> digest is a short one, but it still includes a few useful updates for active players. This round focuses on Community Weeks rewards, the current promo code hunt, progress in the Demon Coalition event, a clarification on Assassin’s Creed champion souls, two known bugs, and confirmation that the next Clan vs Clan tournament will not include Personal Rewards.

&nbsp;

If you have been logging in casually and ignoring the news, this is the important part: there are still free rewards to claim, there is still progress to make in the community event, and there are a couple of game issues Plarium says will be fixed in the next major update.

&nbsp;

 </a>


&nbsp;

<h2>Community Weeks Free Rewards</h2> 

Community Weeks are still active, and one of the easiest things to collect right now is the 7-day login gift chain. To claim it, players need to log in on seven different days and then go to the in-game Shop under the Limited Special Offers tab. It is free, even though it appears inside the shop interface.

&nbsp;

That part is worth stressing because it is the sort of reward many players miss simply because they do not expect a free claim to be sitting in the shop. If you have not checked that tab recently, do it before the Community Weeks window closes.

&nbsp;

<h2>Promo Code for April 2026</h2> 

The community promo code attached to this event is RAIDTOGETHER. Enter it through the in-game promo code window or through Plarium’s official redemption page if you play on a platform that uses web redemption.

&nbsp;

Plarium originally presented this as a promo code hunt tied to the official RAID YouTube channel, but the important part for players is simple: the code is already known, and you can claim it directly if it is still active on your account.

&nbsp;

<h2>Demon Coalition Event Progress</h2> 

The digest also points to continued progress in the Demon Coalition event. At the time of the update, the community was close to reaching the x2 multiplier milestone, along with the Sacred Shard milestone and additional personal streak rewards.

&nbsp;

For players still pushing points, the best in-game shortcut remains the Rankings tab inside the event. That is where you can see which teams other players and clans are using on specific stages. In practice, this is one of the fastest ways to adapt if your own roster is struggling with the event restrictions.

&nbsp;

Plarium’s broader Community Weeks announcement also tied the April celebration to the limited-time Demon Coalition event for level 30+ accounts, alongside the Mavara fusion window that ran from April 7 through April 22, 2026. That gives a bit more context for why this mode has been such a central part of the month’s schedule.

&nbsp;

<h2>Assassin’s Creed Champion Souls Still Available</h2> 

One of the more useful clarifications in the digest concerns Assassin’s Creed champion souls. Even though the official crossover campaign has ended, players who already own those champions can still summon souls for them through normal soul acquisition methods.

&nbsp;

What Plarium is not planning, at least for now, is a dedicated soul event or boosted summon tied specifically to those crossover champions. So the souls are still in the ecosystem, just without any special targeting support.

&nbsp;

<h2>Bug Fixes Mentioned in the Digest</h2> 

Two bugs were highlighted in this digest, and both are scheduled for a fix in the next major update.

&nbsp;

1. Mountain King visual bug In some battles, parts of Mountain King’s model are appearing in the wrong place. Specifically, the horns of his helmet and his axe can appear detached, misplaced in the battle area, or vanish entirely.

&nbsp;

2. Lord Entertainer Fabian revive bug Fabian has reportedly been attacking his own allies after being revived. That is obviously not intended behavior, and Plarium says it is already on the list for the next major patch.

&nbsp;

<h2>Next Clan vs Clan Will Not Have Personal Rewards</h2> 

The final gameplay note is straightforward: the next Clan vs Clan Tournament will not include Personal Rewards.

&nbsp;

That matters because it changes how a lot of players approach resource usage. If you normally save books, Great Hall upgrades, forge sessions, or champion building for Personal Rewards CvC, this is not the cycle to unload everything unless your clan has its own competitive reason to push for a win.

&nbsp;

<h2>What This Digest Actually Means for Players</h2> 

This is not a massive systems update, but it does clean up a few loose ends from the month. The main practical takeaways are simple: claim the Community Weeks login rewards, use RAIDTOGETHER while it is live, keep an eye on Demon Coalition milestones, do not assume Assassin’s Creed souls are gone forever if you own the champions, and do not plan your next CvC around Personal Rewards.

&nbsp;

For a short digest, that is still enough to affect how you log in, what you claim, and whether you save or spend resources this week.

&nbsp;

<h2>Conclusion</h2> 

The April 2026 RAID Digest is brief, but it covers the sort of housekeeping updates that are easy to overlook and annoying to miss. Free login rewards are available, the promo code is already out in the open, Demon Coalition is still worth checking for milestone progress, and the next CvC is a non-personal-rewards cycle. That is the real value of this update: not headline news, but useful account-management information.
