Phobos - Hero Wars Dominion Era

Phobos hero guide, glyphs, artifacts, skins, best teams, and best counters in Hero Wars Dominion Era.

Phobos is a control / mage hero in Hero Wars Dominion Era. He is well known for his stunning ability and his energy stealing of the highest magic attack hero (usually the damage dealer in the mage teams).

Phobos is best used as a counter against powerful energy-based heroes, turning their strength into weakness by draining and silencing them before they can unleash their potential.

When paired with allies who can capitalize on his control, Phobos brings an element of psychological warfare to the battlefield, ensuring that no enemy mage or healer can act with impunity.

Phobos is considered an end-game hero because he targets the strongest mages.

Pros
  • Targeting the hero with the highest magic attack in the team (the damage dealer in mage teams)
  • Skins tones available in the early game (3-1 quest)
  • Control skills - stun for 6.6 seconds
  • Energy stealing
Cons
  • Phobos cannot attack while his first skill is active (6.6 seconds)
  • Vulnerable to physical attack teams
  • Low health
Sooner or later the mind of every living creature succumbs to the cloying grip of fear. You cannot run, you cannot hide. Fear lives deep within us all. Phobos knows this, and awaits his time. If you fear death, you will die!

Phobos Pet Priority

Merlin enhances Phobos's magic attacks by providing additional damage boosts. His ability to increase magic penetration allows Phobos to bypass enemy defenses more effectively, maximizing his damage output during engagements.
Albus focuses on healing and sustaining Phobos during battles. His healing abilities ensure that Phobos can remain on the battlefield longer, allowing him to unleash his powerful attacks without the risk of being taken down quickly.
Axel protects Phobos by absorbing some incoming damage and preventing single attacks from exceeding a certain threshold. This defensive capability is crucial for keeping Phobos alive while he significantly damages opponents.
Biscuit’s ability to reduce enemy healing complements Phobos's offensive strategies by ensuring that enemies cannot recover effectively from his attacks. This synergy is beneficial against teams that rely heavily on healing.
Khorus provides a shield that absorbs damage and protects Phobos from control effects, allowing him to focus on dealing damage without being interrupted. This makes him a reliable partner for maintaining Phobos's offensive capabilities.
