Introduction
Welcome to Method’s Xavian Guide.
Base guide by Nate, updated and maintained by Kushdy, Season 1 + 2 Top Ranking Tank, now current rank 1 Xavian since the start of season 3.
Hopefully this guide will help you on the straight and narrow, to understand everything you need to know for Xavian!
If you have any questions you can find me on Discord, or you can check out some of the runs I've posted on my YouTube below.
Overview
Xavian is the newest Tank hero to join Fellowship. Powered by Mana and stacks of Swift Reprival, he unleashes a potent mix of damaging and healing spells. With a versatile toolkit packed with shields, heals, and group-wide utility auras, Xavian operates as a supportive defensive powerhouse.
Unlike traditional tanks, his primary active mitigation relies on a large, stationary circle placed on the ground, which can make his playstyle quite restrictive to manage.
Strengths
- Outstanding Group Utility: Offers strong off-healing, shielding, and a damage-redirection aura.
- Powerful Crowd Control: Features a low-cooldown ability that pulls in and stuns targets.
- High Mobility: Excellent movement capabilities.
- Massive Health Pool: Boasts an exceptionally large base health pool.
- Ultimate Immunity: Grants complete immunity on a relatively short cooldown.
Weaknesses
- Weak Early Game: Starts off noticeably vulnerable in the early stages..
- Zone-Dependent Squishiness: Exceptionally fragile whenever he steps outside of his Shining Halo circle.
- Unforgiving Playstyle: Highly punishing if you make positioning or mechanical mistakes.
