Overview Herald is an Uncommon Spirit Support champion from the Knights Revenant, built as a buffer and crowd control. In battle the kit places [Decrease SPD] and gives allies [Increase C.RATE].
Buffer Crowd control
Where Herald helps Worked out from the kit: each area lists what helps there (from our mode guides), and these are the matches in this champion's skills. Not a hand-made rating - gear, speed and the team matter more.
Area Fit Because the kit has Chimera Core Can help

(for example 4×ATK = four times this champion's ATK, before the target's DEF) - see
how damage works .

Support T1 Steadfast MAX HP. T2 Shieldbearer Stronger [Shield] buffs. T3 Rapid Response Turn meter when its buffs expire. T4 Lore of Steel Stronger set bonuses (Speed...). T5 Lasting Gifts Its buffs can last a turn longer. T6 Timely Intervention Turn meter when an ally drops low. Defense T1 Defiant RES. T2 Blastproof Less AoE damage taken. T3 Resurgent Can shake off a debuff after a big hit. T4 Delay Death Takes less damage from the same enemy over time. T5 Cycle of Revenge Turn meter when allies are crit.

Blessings Temporal Chains - Speed control for the whole team: slower enemies act less often, which is why it is a staple for support and control champions. Intimidating Presence - A good fit on a leader whose aura is worth boosting; wasted on a champion that is not leading. Commanding Presence - The simpler aura booster for a leader; useless unless the champion is leading the team. How blessings work
Relics Journal of Necrotos - Boosts every heal and every turn-meter fill the wearer gives its allies, so the more of those a kit has, the more it gets. Harp of Kasbiel - Support skills that do no damage still refill a little turn meter, so buffers and healers act more often. Volcardiac Heart - Puts a protective buff on the whole team as the fight opens, which helps most when the first rounds are the dangerous ones. How relics work
