Raid: Shadow Legends, a widely acclaimed turn-based RPG, features an intriguing mechanic known as Champion Empowerment. For newcomers, mastering this system is essential to unlocking the full potential of your champions. In this guide, we’ll explore the nuances of empowerment, breaking down its components and explaining how it influences your overall gameplay experience. At its heart, Champion Empowerment allows you to elevate your champions beyond their default abilities. By investing in your favorite characters, you can significantly boost their strength, durability, and effectiveness in battle, making them even more formidable on the battlefield.
Raid Empowerment Champion List
Champions classified as Epic, Legendary, and Mythical can be Empowered up to four times, providing a significant boost to their stats. Empowerment requires duplicates of the same Champion, meaning you’ll need multiple copies of that specific character. However, some special Champions are unique and can only be obtained once, making it impossible to use their duplicates for Empowerment. Instead, these one-off Champions rely on duplicates of designated surrogate Champions for their upgrades. Below is a list of these unique Champions along with the corresponding surrogates required for their Empowerment:

My Aothar is +3, and I just draw another one. However, I cannot select the duplicate for empowerment. Anyone know the reason?
@Jay: I have added the missing champions He-Main, Skeletor, and Authoratrix Lamasu into the Empowerment Champion List. Thanks!
Don’t forget:
He-Man ← x4 Holsring
Skeletor ← x4 Teodor the Savant
They won’t show up in the empowerment area if they are faction guardians
Im sorry but this makes no sense! If I understand correctly, all epic can be empowered but some are one-offs. Problem is, I have epics, but none show up on my empowerment page. Only Ninja( yes I know he is lego) appears. What gives?
