Balthus Drauglord provides defensive utility in Clan Boss. Speed-tune to your Clan Boss team composition — this is mandatory for advanced CB. Unkillable/Myth teams prioritize damage sets (Savage/Cruel) on DPS and Speed/Accuracy for debuffers. Traditional teams without unkillable may prefer Lifesteal for sustain.

Balthus Drauglord provides defensive utility in Hydra. Accuracy is critical for landing debuffs on Hydra heads — aim for 350+ on Normal, 400+ on Hard. Relentless is strong for champions with key cooldowns or frequent debuffs. Build tanky to survive head slams and AoE damage.
