Lorsan's Current Ratings (Updated August 2026)

Lorsan

Lorsan launched as one of AFK Journey's stronger supports, but his relative standing has cooled as newer heroes released with more consistent kits. He's still functional — particularly as a budget force-multiplier — but he's no longer a top-priority pull or investment target the way he was at release.

Lorsan's Skills and Abilities

Whispering Tempest (Ultimate) 

Whispering Tempest centers a storm on the frontmost enemy, reducing the Haste of nearby foes while dealing repeated damage over 5 seconds. It's Lorsan's main tool for disrupting enemy action speed rather than a primary damage source.

Stormbound Retribution links the nearest and farthest enemy heroes at the start of battle, transferring a portion of the damage one takes to the other. This is Lorsan's signature mechanic — it effectively duplicates your team's damage output, but only while both linked enemies are alive, which limits its value against single-target bosses.

Zephyr's Embrace shields the weakest ally with bonus Dodge, Haste, and steady HP recovery for 6 seconds. It's a single-target effect by default, which is one of the main reasons his healing has fallen behind newer, teamwide supports.

Turbulent Resurgence unlocks once Lorsan reaches Mythic+, healing all allies and re-triggering Stormbound Chain when it breaks, up to three times per battle. At EX Weapon +10, this also stuns the linked enemies — his main source of crowd control.

EX Weapon and Investment Milestones

Lorsan's kit scales meaningfully with EX Weapon investment, but resources are better spent hitting specific breakpoints than maxing him blindly:

• Legendary+: Grants a flat ATK boost — foundational, but not a priority over other roster needs.
• Mythic+: The most important breakpoint. Converts his single-target heal into a teamwide effect via Turbulent Resurgence.
• EX +10: Adds crowd control by stunning the last two linked enemies when Stormbound Chain breaks — his best PVP utility.
• Supreme+: Makes the ally protected by Zephyr's Embrace immune to debuffs during its duration.

For most players, Mythic+ and EX +10 remains the practical stopping point — it unlocks his healing and CC without overcommitting resources that are better spent on higher-priority heroes in the current meta.

Story/AFK Stages vs. PVP: Where Does Lorsan Perform Best?

Choose Lorsan for AFK Stages if: you're running shorter, multi-wave battles where his damage-duplication and Haste reduction can consistently proc. His output drops off in drawn-out fights once his limited Stormbound Chain casts run out.

Choose Lorsan for PVP if: you're building around burst-damage teams that can exploit the Stormbound Chain link, particularly in Supreme Arena where burst compositions see more play. He's a weaker pick in Regular Arena and largely ineffective in Dream Realm, since that mode frequently features single-target encounters where his linking mechanic can't activate.

Is Lorsan Worth Building in 2026?

Given his shift from S-tier to B-tier overall, Lorsan is best treated as a budget or secondary support rather than a priority pull:

• New players: Skip unless you already have him — current S-level supports offer more consistent value for the same investment.
• Existing Lorsan owners: Worth pushing to Mythic+ and EX +10 if you need budget CC or a force-multiplier for multi-enemy AFK Stages, but not worth over-investing beyond that.
• PVP-focused accounts: Only worth specializing into if you're already running Supreme Arena burst compositions that benefit from his link mechanic.

Conclusion

Lorsan's core identity — linking enemies to duplicate damage and reduce Haste, hasn't changed, but the meta around him has, dropping him from an S-tier release-day pick to a solid B-tier budget support in 2026. He still holds value in multi-enemy AFK Stages and select PVP burst teams once built to Mythic+ and EX +10, but he's no longer a hero worth prioritizing pulls or heavy resources toward. Save your Dragon Crystals for the current S-tier lineup, and treat Lorsan as a useful supplementary piece rather than a core investment.
