Crypt-King Graal Storyline
“Listen, boy. I don’t give a rat’s arse about how much silver you’re offering, I ain’t going back there. Heck, you could toss a bag of gems in my face and I’d still refuse. Yeah, yeah, I know. Ancient crypts, untold treasures, yadda-yadda. Terrible guardians and secrets best left forgotten – old fishwives’ tales, right? Thought so too. Me and my mates – ten of them – decided to poke about the old bastard Graal’s tomb. Used to be some great wizard-king, died centuries ago, locals say he was a horrible Siroth-worshipper and turned their grandmas into frogs. You know how these stories go. Anyway, the place’s been quiet save for a few drunken tales of skeletons walking about on the darkest nights. But we figured with dead folk rising all over Teleria this isn’t anything new. So in we go, each man’s a veteran of the craft. We traveled far and wide, picked barrows clean of things you’d never dream of, faced bandits, beasts, competition – you name it! And sure, there’s a ghoul here, a reanimated skeleton there. Usual problems in our business, we cut through them easily. Only when we reached the sarcophagus… Well, HE woke up. Can you imagine, boy? Arrows, spearheads, swords, all useless! Mine was good Aravian steel, forged by the Elves. No, don’t ask me how I got it. But the moment I struck that thing’s carcass, the blade rusted away and crumbled. Just like that! So we did the only thing we could – run. Don’t remember much of what happened then, just the screams of my mates as they burst into flames or turned to ice. I was the only one to get out in the end, never ran that fast in my life. So no, I ain’t going to stick my neck under the axe again. In fact, I’m getting as far away as I bloody can. And if you’re smart, you’ll do the same.” – Unknown grave robber

@YoMommasBoy Not sure why control being AOE would be bad at all. If the little spiders are CCed they don’t counterattack. He can place HP Burn at the start of the fight and then renew it with his freeze which prevents the little spiders from counterattacking or healing.
@Gila Monster I think I can understand why @ayumilove rated him low in Nether Spider. His control is largely based on AoEs, which are generally a very bad thing in NS. I agree with you that he’s absurdly good in so many places now that he’s been buffed.
I disagree with the low scores for Nether Spider, Eternal Dragon, Scarab King.
I’ve used Graal to solo Nether Spider on Hard DT including at least one run in the global leaderboards (19th place on floor 60 Nether Spider in Hard DT).
He is one of several champs that can solo Scarab in regen gear easily.
His burns, CC for the minions, and irresistible attack down on his A1 make his kit excellent for Eternal Dragon.
@Steeve sounds like you’re not fully ascended.
I can confirm that, following the change to Death Fires (AOE instead of random HP burn now) this champion is now very strong in the high floors of Doom Tower Hard. He is especially useful in combination with Drexthar Bloodtwin, who is a freely available permanent fragment summon. If you set CKG slightly faster than Drex, he has a guaranteed (if booked) ‘place’ of an AOE burn. This is followed up Drexthar’s AOE which gives a guaranteed provoke if the target is burning. Second turn CKG does a guaranteed freeze and extends the burn. That’s two whole turns you don’t have to worry about. Add in a third control champ (like Visix, another freebie) and you can pretty much maintain AOE control and burn with 100% uptime.
Given that CKG is also strong in Spider AND Hydra I would now humbly recommend him for promotion to A-tier. And he’s definitely worth booking out.
Has there been a speed nerf on crtpt king? I just pulled him and refer to this guide and it says base soeed 107 ….well my guy has 97 speed not 107
hp burn*
@relativenewbie Dreadbombs are NOT immune to up burn. Make sure before u accidentally convince someone to feed him to another Lego for 6* and then not regret it even though they should… 😉
He’s A rank now for sure. Maybe S tier. A very very good champion
@dennis dickerson You should regret it, I’m running 1min :29 second spider runs with him, he’s not totally useless anymore. Also, he is good in Hydra.
I fed him to another leggo to get 6* . He was useless and I don’t regret it
In response to my previous comment, no he’d be terrible against Bommal. The AoE freeze only works against targets under hp burn and the dreadbombs are immune. Guess I’m working up a Templar for that yahoo.
Recently got him, I bet he’s now A-rank-worthy. Just a simple fix on his kit made him a lot more viable. Thx Plarium.
He might even be a Bommal mvp. AoE freeze for the dreadbombs, hp burn for damage on the rhino, and atk down. Plus he can probably solo the waves.
AoE HP Burn on his a2 (yes, and Improved multiplier, but we aren’t using this guy as a nuker) means that his CC is insanely good. That a3 basically keeps every one of his enemies burned and also frozen, then his a1 means they’ll be weaker when they come out of the big chill. Thank you so very much payrium for giving a real buff to a really bad legendary. He’s finally worth the rarity name.
moving up to a top rank with these buffs for sure, gonna be so much more useable in all areas now
Buffs be coming! My very first legendary will finally be independent.
This is my complaint about Graal, He is a LEGENDARY, but is only ‘useful’ as long as you happen to have the exact right monsters to pair him with…I DO NOT.
This is a character who relies on team synergy, but when that happens his viability goes from “Eh” to “Holy hell.” I had the incredible luck of acquiring this character alongside Mordecai from a batch of 10 ancient shards.
By building the two out so that Mordecai barely goes first with his AoE HP Burn, Graal will then cause mass-freeze *and* extend the burn debuffs on enemy targets. This makes CGK a stellar performer in Spider, provided someone like Mordecai is there to set Graal up. The latter doesn’t need any books. With good speed the spiders will hardly ever get a turn – especially if you have another character with high chance of AoE freeze or stun.
Due to the nature of the attack strategy (HP Burn), take note that it is against your interest to apply Speed Down to the spiderling minor enemies. Slowing the boss is fine, but you want the majority of those HP burn debuffs activating as fast as possible between the boss’s turns.
This is the only Legendary I have ever gotten and for the life of me I can not figure out how you don’t have him at F. Most of the time his 3 shots hit the same target and if they have a high resistance it FAILS to hp burn. Which makes his 3 skill uselss too.
This champ should be dropped to bottom tier. There are newer rares and epics that can fill the same role.
Don’t use your books on him. Save them for another legendary, like Rhazin. He doesn’t benefit off of books.
Hi guys. After 50 days of playing the game I have no more Shards but 1 Leg and 9 books. Should I books him or save my book ?
@Reinhart, more often than not, the target you choose on his A2 will indeed hit as one of the 3, IF it rolls a landing. What would be nice is a higher than 50% chance to roll the landing itself, say 75%, then book to 100%.
CGK is more viable for clan boss now in patch 1.14. They made a change where if there are 10 debuffs applied and you try to refresh, it can now be refreshed. Prior to 1.14 the refresh from CGK’s A3 would fail to apply. (The same is true for any other debuff, such as decrease attack.) He is still a lower-tier legendary though. He would be useful in spider if his A2 could be targeted or was AOE… but nope.
His speed has not been reduced. He gains an extra 10 base speed at 6* ascended.
His speed has bin reduced to 97.
Looks like his speed took a huge nerf at some point
No LS build for CB?
