Showin' Some Skin - Part 3 of 3

So now we've seen a large amount of Heroes and the skins that they need.  How do you pick which to get first?  How do you know which you can live without?  That's what part three is all about.  Let's get to it.

To make our task a little easier here, we're going to group our heroes into a few different categories.  These will be our general guidelines, and there will be a final category of Notable Exceptions.

So, our Categories will be Tanks, DPS, Warriors/Support, Healers, and Critical Damage heroes.

Tanks:  These heroes will need Armor and Health Skins as a priority.  For these heroes, you should go after their armor skins first, and health skins next.  Examples include: Astaroth, Cleaver, Ziri, and Luther.

DPS:  These heroes will need Armor Penetration, and skins that increase Attack power.  Armor Penetration skins are the highest priority for these heroes.  Examples include:  K'arkh, Kiera, Astrid and Lucas, and Ginger.

Warriors/Support:  In general you're going to want to give these heroes Health skins as a priority. If the hero can act as a healer, then you will want to consider getting skins that increase the heroes attack level as well.  This does not apply to heroes that have DODGE ABILITY.

Healers:  These heroes will need priority placed on Armor/Health, with attack increase as a secondary priority.  One should consider Attack increase for healers because their healing abilities are all calculated based on their attack level.

Critical Damage Heroes:  The number one priority for these heroes should be their Critical Damage skins.  Almost all of them will benefit from any health or armor skins that they have.

Notable Exceptions:

Kai - Needs his Health skin as a priority.

Ishmael - Needs all four of his skins.  There is no way around this.

Galahad - Needs all four of his skins.  There is no way around this.

Elmir - Needs his Armor Penetration skin as a priority.

All Heroes who have Dodge Ability should have priority placed on their Dodge skins.  Elmir is a exception, his Dodge glyph should get priority to offset this.

Lars - Lars should have priority given to his Magic Attack skin.  You will also need to get his armor skin as well.

Krista - Krista should have priority given to her Armor skin.  You will need her Attack skin as well.

Jet - Jet's health skin should be top priority, his critical hit skin will be needed too.

There are probably others, if you think I missed something let me know in the comments.

Don't make the mistake of thinking that these skins only matter based on which you are using.  This is not the case.  Skins stack.  Meaning each that you have adds to the others.  

I would consider using the default skins for a hero in the Arena and Grand Arena.  If your opponents know that you have a certain skin on a team, they will likely adjust tactics based on this.  Much like Poker, using skins other than the default is like showing your cards.

Finally, don't forget that Critical Hit Chance and Dodge success are determined by how high a hero's main stat is.  This number can only be increased by adding to a hero's glyphs, and by leveling a hero's default skin.  Don't forget to keep up with them.
