 Hey everyone, welcome back for more Exo's Heroes content. In today's video, we're going to talk about FCU Lume, her hero profile, her strengths and weaknesses, skills, playability, recommended garden stones, synergy with other heroes, overall rating, and my final thoughts. Before that, if you want to see more Exo's Heroes content, please hit the subscribe button down below. So here we are at Uloom's Hero Story. So Uloom hails from the nation, Marinos Island. Her element is machine, her position is defense and attack type is physical. And to note that Uloom's sex is male. Anyway, she's also an ogre, so she's an ogre with her original form. But this is her FC, so she looks like a girl. So anyway, let's move on to Uloom's stats. So as for Uloom's stats, she is pretty much a defender and her strengths are average, no, sorry, above average HP. She has high defense and she has high block. So as for her average stats, so she has average hit and her weakness, she has low attack, low damage, low crit, hit, and low speed. So it's expected for a defender to usually go in the middle or to go in the last part in the sequence of battle. And it's also expected that she would be tanky enough. But based on my experience, she is one of the most tankiest defenders out there, especially with provoke. She really, really works well with protecting squishy units and she heals pretty much herself. As for Uloom's skills, so there are a couple of changes to her fate core form. So let's start first with her regular passive, which is block three. So this is where she gets her provoked. So Uloom provokes the enemies once an ally's health drops to 30% or less. So also she gains mana if only health is at 20% or less when triggered. And she gains also mana if only health is at 70% or more when triggered. So for her two added passives for her FC. So we have at first is barred will. So triggers when 70% or more of own maximum health is taken at once. So reduces all receive damage, including current damage by 50% for two turns. So increases all damage received after two turns by 30% for three turns. The other one, which gives her heal over time if survival instinct. So if your health drops below 30%, she gets survival instinct recovering around 50% of her maximum health. And this is for four turns. So to sum it up, Uloom's survivability increases once she is in her fate core form. In her basic form, she's a bit tanky, but this gives her more survivability for her to absorb more damage if she provokes the enemy. So let's proceed to her S2. So her S2 is dimensional imprisonment. So deal 750 damage to one enemy. So destroys garden stones, three random stones if you are tranquil. And her S2 is more the same as her S1, but it's, but it's a AoE. So deals three, three, five, seven percent damage to all enemies. Again, it destroys garden stones if you are tranquil. The, I think skills one and two for Uloom is, is one of her strong suits and also her weakness because for her to, to be, to get the tranquil state, she has to be paired with battery number one. So for you to take advantage of her, you really have to pair her with battery. So, and also if you don't use battery, pretty much her S1 and S2 are not that impressive because it's only damage that's, that she will be dealing. She won't be breaking any garden stones. So I'm kind of on the fence with, with, with Uloom because she is, she is really a good character, but it will really be dependent on if you have battery or not. Anyway, guys, just a reminder. If you haven't subscribed to my channel, please check out the subscribe button down below and hit it so that you can get updates from me on a regular basis. So let's move on to your, to her playability. So again, with her playability, my only condition with her is that she has to be for her, for you to really maximize Uloom, you really have to pair her with battery. So again, in terms of playability, my assessment here is you have to bring her, you have to bring battery with her so that you could take advantage of all that she brings to the game. So again, for her playability, for PVP, she is mainly used right now as, as a good defender for tag, for PVP tag. But some teams actually still use her in the main PVP, main PVP team. But anyway, in which case it depends on what units you have, but she is usually used in the main PVP team for PVP, PVP matchups. And she is used really well in the tag PVP. As for PVP, she is really, really good at the chapters. Based on my experience, I used her well in finishing off chapter 11. So chapter 11 will really make her shine because you need to break a lot of garden stones there. Also, she is very useful in your squadron battles. If you have her, you bring her. And if you don't, if your team composes mostly of bathroom and rarash, they really complement each other. The other content for PVE that she is great is the Holy Dragon Grounds because of her bare will. So again, and also usually for Holy Dragon Grounds, you're bringing back to the there, that is why you could also break garden stones for the dragon. And also, I also found out recently that she's good in the core raid. If you play the core raid, it's usually hard to break multiple garden stones with multiple colors. So, but as for Uloom, she can break random garden stones regardless of colors. You could bring her there and bring and break garden stones of different colors. So anyway, that's it for our playability. Now we'll proceed to recommended garden stones. So for Uloom's Awakening, so what I would recommend for her is either you use at first frost set because of the additional block she gets as equipment set effects. And when you awaken her, you get an additional bump for defense, sorry, plus 175 or if you have all six frosts, you have plus 700. So that's a big bump in her defense. But I would really suggest that you set her up with a red garden garden stone set, which when used as equipment set effects, she will get a total damage reduction. And when once you awaken her, the fire set will give her additional HP. So that's if you have all six, that's a plus 5000 bump in HP. That's very, very big for her survivability as well. So again, you have only two choices there. You either use frost or you either use fire. So for synergy with other heroes, if you can see here in my screen, you can see their Bathory, you can see their Rera and you have Lepin and you have Dorka. So Uloom, what do you call this? Uloom plays well with them, especially with Bathory because she needs Bathory to activate some of her skills. Also, Dorka is there to provide her with heals so that she could be more tough. And also, Lepin is there just in case Uloom dies, she would be revived again to provide protection again for the team. So anyway, just to sum it up, Uloom is good with glass cannon units because of the way she takes off damage from them, especially if Bathory could prevent them from dying from the last point of HP. So and also, she works well with heroes that gives her health and heroes that revives her. So as for synergy, those are the best heroes that you can build with Uloom or around you. So again, as for Uloom's overall rating, so the overall rating is rated at a highest of five and the lowest of one. So we'll start with Uloom's stats. So Uloom's stats is, I would rate her at the four because she is nearly perfect as a defender. She has all the qualities of being tough and being able to survive. And with just a little bit of a bump in terms of HP and more defense, she is really, really a hard tank to kill. Next is her playability. Actually, my rating for her in playability and in her synergy ties back to Bathory. It's very unfortunate that once you separate Uloom in Bathory, Uloom's value drops significantly. So anyway, when we say playability, when you play her in the different stages like PvP and PvE, she would really shine with Uloom there. So that is why I'm giving her a three out of five because she only shines with Bathory's presence. But if you take out Bathory, she's a bit the regular tank. She doesn't excel that much. She doesn't stand out really from the crowd if you know what I mean. And the next would be synergy. So same again, assessment. When you synergize her with other heroes, her value kicks up when you have Bathory there. Well, Bathory is somehow kind of hard to get. But if you have her, try to really pair her with Uloom as much as possible in the content that you use Uloom in, especially in PvP tag and the other contents in PvE. So if you have Uloom in her regular form, would you get her FC? I would say yes, if you have the opportunity. With the recently concluded hero selection for Uloom's banner and Garf's banner, some of you, I think, have her ready. But if you have the chance again to get her in the future, please try to get her because she enhances survivability of your original Uloom. And her FC is a little bit more tankier than her original one. So anyway, for my final thoughts. So for Uloom, she is one of the best defenders that I've or tanks that I've ever used. She's scared me through a lot of content and she's very good in destroying Guardian Stones. But her potential is limited if you don't have Bathory. So you have to use Bathory when you have your Uloom. That's a must. I've used Uloom before without Bathory and it really doesn't, you know, she doesn't really play well. And she doesn't really give you that extra skills that you need. And she doesn't give you the destruction of random Guardian Stones, which is very important in today's gameplay in today's meta. So but she is a well-rounded enough defender that she can survive and defend your team. And again, if you have her regular form, she is actually a decent defender already. You don't have to look for and look for other defenders. OK, guys, so that concludes my video. Just take note that these are just my opinions. And if you disagree with me or agree with me, let me know what you think in the comments below. You all stay safe and I'll see you in the next video. Guardian out.
