Legendary Order by Hatemael

Updated: 05-01-22

These legendary orders are the ones that Hatemael prefers the most. Obviously there will be times where you, or other great players may disagree, and depending on the comps you like to run, there is quite often room for debate or a better upgrade order to go by in that situation. If you see word [untested] or [early thoughts], this means that I have not played the character yet and going off other peoples’ suggestions or my best guess until I have a chance to play more, so it will get updated. I am going to do my best to keep this current as the game evolves and new characters change importance of particular powers.
