Our Take on Drasill
Drasill is an SSR Guardian who supports the whole team with shields while healing himself in [Wild]. Nature's Embrace gives every ally a shield worth 19% of Max HP for 8 seconds, and Vines deals 180% magic damage in a large area while recovering 36% of his lost HP. His talent sends him into [Wild] at max Rage, instantly recovering 26% of lost HP, then 3% per second, with control immunity and ranged basic attacks.
Strengths
- +Nature's Embrace is a team-wide shield, and Root Juice makes shielded allies in [Wild] regenerate 2% of their Max HP per second.
- +[Wild] gives him control immunity and continuous healing, and Thorn Guardian returns magic damage equal to 3% of his Max HP to each attacker.
- +Talent level 2 cuts his Overdrive cost by 2 in [Wild], so Nature's Embrace comes around more often.
Weaknesses
- −Root Juice only helps allies who are both shielded and in [Wild], so teams without [Wild] units lose a large part of his value.
- −Before he reaches max Rage he has no control immunity or regeneration, and the text does not say how fast Rage builds.
How to Play Drasill
Drasill holds the front row and expects to take damage, since losing HP is what fills his Rage. Once in [Wild], cast Nature's Embrace so [Wild] allies, and likely Drasill himself, start regenerating under Root Juice; the text does not confirm whether Root Juice includes him. Vines is his self-heal for when he drops low. Talent level 2 is the priority because cheaper Overdrives mean more team shields. Level 4 adds Healing Received per allied Overdrive, and level 7 turns those stacks into debuff cleanses while in [Wild].
Good Teammates
- Grimnir (SR) – Grimnir reaches [Wild] through Valor's Cry, so Nature's Embrace's shield on him triggers Root Juice's 2% Max HP regeneration per second.
- Siegfried (SR) – The SR Siegfried shields himself with Flamecoil in [Wild] and spends HP on Flamecleave, so he qualifies for Root Juice and benefits from the regeneration.
- Eurytion (SR) – Eurytion shields himself with Ragecrash and enters [Wild] through HP loss, meeting Root Juice's conditions.
- Caligula (SR) – Caligula's Sacred Blessing auto-casts when Drasill first enters [Wild], and her Arcane Arts heals [Wild] targets for 50% more.

Should You Invest?
Drasill is an SSR rated T2 here, and his value rises with how many [Wild] units you field. In a Wild Spirit core he is one of the more useful Guardians for the slot; in other teams his Nature's Embrace still helps, but Root Juice largely goes unused.
