Overview

Rally leadHealerDebuffer

Morena is a new S-rarity Balanced hero, first read on this site on 2 November 2026. Her Burst, Wraith Siphon, damages up to 6 enemy units around her (factor 4,400 over 2 seconds at max level, 5,000 over 4 seconds once awakened) and turns all of that damage into healing for her own troops. Death Edict gives her troop +35% ATK and +9% Soldier Limit. Cursed Touch has an 80% chance, when her troop is attacked, to strip one buff from the attacker or hit it for factor 1,000. Corrupted Field only works when she leads a rally: it cuts enemy damage by up to 15%, less the more enemy units are inside it (minimum 2.5%).

When to use Morena

Rally lead or second march against buff-heavy enemies; her Burst is strongest when 4–6 enemy units are clustered around her.

Troop: Any troop type; rally lead for Corrupted Field.

Morena skills at max level

1. 1

   Wraith Siphon Burst

   Morena becomes a wraith and keeps damaging up to 6 enemy units in a circle around her for 2 seconds. Each extra target lowers the damage each one takes by 5%. When it ends, all the damage this skill dealt is turned into healing for her own troops. Costs 1,000 rage; gains up to 160 rage per round.

   Damage factor 1,320 / 1,760 / 2,200 / 3,080 / 4,400

2. 2

   Corrupted Field Passive, unlocks at 2 stars

   When Morena leads a rally, she creates a corrupted field around herself that lowers the damage dealt by enemy units inside it. Each extra enemy unit in the field weakens the effect by 0.5 percentage points, down to a minimum of 2.5%. Unlocks at 2 stars.

   Enemy damage dealt -5% / 6% / 8% / 11% / 15%

3. 3

   Cursed Touch Passive, unlocks at 3 stars

   When Morena's troop is attacked, there is a chance to remove 1 buff from the attacker. If the attacker has no buffs, it takes damage instead (damage factor 1,000). Unlocks at 3 stars.

   Death Edict Passive, unlocks at 4 stars

   Raises the ATK and Soldier Limit of Morena's troop. Unlocks at 4 stars.

5. 5

   Soul Return Awakened

   Upgrades Wraith Siphon: the wraith form lasts 4 seconds instead of 2 and the damage factor rises from 4,400 to 5,000. It still hits up to 6 units and turns all the damage into healing for her troops.

   Wraith Siphon: factor 4,400 for 2 s → 5,000 for 4 s

Values are levels 1 to 5 from the in-game Upgrade Preview. Skills 2, 3 and 4 unlock at 2, 3 and 4 stars; maxing every skill awakens the hero and unlocks the awakened skill.
