As one of the new champions introduced in April 2025, Yuzan the Marooned is one of those characters that doesn’t just sit in your roster gathering dust. With a kit that balances healing, buff control, and team protection, he fits into a variety of setups in this RPG, especially in fights where survivability matters most. As an Epic Void champion from the Skinwalkers faction, his skills offer strong utility for faction-limited content, Doom Tower bosses, and certain dungeon runs.

Although he might not be your go-to pick for everything in RAID: Shadow Legends, Yuzan shines when it comes to disrupting enemy buffs and keeping your team healthy. His unique passive spreads surplus healing across the squad, and that alone makes him worth a second look. In this guide, we’ll go through the best ways to gear him up, where he performs best, and how to unlock his potential both in PvE and PvP.

Yuzan’s Strengths: A Versatile Healer with Utility

Yuzan isn’t a one-note support champion. His three active skills each bring something different to the table. Hammerhorn is a single-target attack that transfers a random debuff from himself to an enemy, and also heals him for 10% of his max HP. That self-healing ties directly into his passive, Kind Soul, which shares any leftover healing with the team. It’s a smart mechanic that gives value beyond the direct effect.

His second ability, Thundering Charge, does even more. It hits all enemies, strips buffs (up to two per enemy), and heals him per buff removed. That makes it excellent against buff-heavy bosses and PvP opponents using Stoneskin or other defense boosters. This skill, once upgraded, is only on a three-turn cooldown.

Then there’s Good Luck Charm, which acts like a mini-cleanse. It clears one random debuff from each ally, heals them for 20% of Yuzan’s HP, and applies Block Debuffs for two turns. Combined with his passive, it keeps teams stable through poison-heavy encounters and stun mechanics.

Artifact Setup: Matching Gear to Role

Gear Yuzan for either healing and protection or debuff management, depending on how you want to play him. Here’s a quick breakdown based on game mode:

PvE Options

• Relentless or Reflex for more chances to cycle through Good Luck Charm.
• Regeneration and Immortalare useful for keeping Yuzan topped up, which in turn leads to more healing for allies.

PvP Options

• Immunity and Untouchable to avoid turn-one debuffs.
• Stoneskin or Protection to survive burst damage while setting up cleanses and heals.

Universal sets like Perception, Resistance, and Speed work across both modes, especially if you’re targeting high-speed builds for Arena or needing more Accuracy for debuff stripping.

Stat Priorities

Yuzan needs a healthy mix of Speed, Accuracy, and bulk. Whether you’re using him to clear debuffs or just keep your team healthy, he needs to survive first. Here’s what to focus on:

• Speed: Always important. Helps him cycle his skills faster.
• Accuracy: Crucial for stripping buffs with Thundering Charge and transferring debuffs.
• HP% and DEF%: Increases both survivability and healing output.
• Resistance: Optional, but useful in PvP to avoid CC effects.

For gear slots:

• Gauntlets: HP% or DEF%
• Chestplate: Accuracy or HP%
• Boots: Speed or HP%
• Banner: Accuracy or Resistance
• Ring/Amulet: HP or DEF (with substats in Speed or Accuracy if possible)

Masteries Setup

Depending on where you use him most, Yuzan can benefit from different mastery paths. His best trees are Defense and Support for PvP, while Offense and Support give more value in PvE.

PvP Masteries (Defense + Support)

• Key picks include Unshakeable for resistance and Lasting Gifts to extend buffs like Block Debuffs.
• Rejuvenation and Resurgent help him stay alive longer and cleanse more often.

PvE Masteries (Offense + Support)

• Go for Warmaster as the Tier 6 choice to add extra damage against bosses.
• Use Merciful Aid, Healing Savior, and Lore of Steel to improve his support role.

No matter the tree, always include Rapid Response to get more turn meter from buffs.

Best Places to Use Yuzan

Yuzan isn’t an all-rounder, but he has solid spots where he performs very well:

• Faction Wars: This is probably his best area. His healing and debuff management make Skinwalkers teams much more reliable here. Against tough waves or bosses with poison and stuns, he gives your team the edge.
• Dungeons: He works well in Ice Golem and Dragon, especially when paired with damage dealers who need protection. He can counter the Dragon’s reflect shield by dispelling enemy buffs.
• Doom Tower: He’s great against buff-stacking bosses like the Eternal Dragon or Griffin. Thundering Charge keeps the boss debuffed while his team stays healed and protected.
• Arena: He can hold his own in niche setups. Use him in a high-resistance team where you’re more focused on outlasting the enemy rather than nuking them right away.

Blessings and Tomes

For Blessings, go with:

• Cruelty if you’re using him in PvE to reduce enemy defense.
• Survival Instinct in Arena for more TM when debuffed.

He needs 11 tomes to max out all skills. Prioritize Good Luck Charm first, followed by Thundering Charge. His A1 is fine to upgrade last.

The adaptable Epic champion, Yuzan the Marooned, offers more than is initially apparent. While he doesn’t dominate every game mode, he holds his own in challenging content where healing, buff control, and debuff protection are essential. If you’re building a Skinwalkers team or looking for a PvE support champion who can handle long fights, he’s worth the investment.
