Zardin
Kit Overview
Summary
Like many Defense Adventurers, Zardin has limited damage output as someone with among the lowest Strength stats in Dragalia Lost. Yet his kit is entirely offensive with two quick damage skills, a Strength passive, and a Sword.
Why This Tier?
-
Alongside the usual limitations of defensive characters, Zardin lacks teamwide buffs or even the HP Up Co-Ability.
-
His Full HP = Strength Up Ability has an incredibly difficult stipulation for a melee fighter.

|---|---|
A knight so vain, he carries a mirror into battle. His antics often make those around him cringe, but he never seems to notice. His expression sometimes turns serene when gazing into his mirror—what DOES he see in there? |

Character Stats
Overview
For someone with a complex, Zardin is a very straightforward adventurer. He has two active damage skills that attack straight ahead of him and a very simple Full HP = STR 10% ability. He also has 75% Burn resistance, which would suit him for Dragon Trials and High Dragon Trials. However, even in its simplicity, Zardin’s kit is lacking. He struggles to remain on the front lines and keep his ability active, as any chip damage will weaken him. His strength stat is also something no one should admire, being the second lowest of any adventurer at only 432.
Strengths
Straightforward Kit
Zardin isn’t hard to understand: two damage skills, and stay at full health to get the most out of him.
Fast Force Strikes
Swords have the fastest Force Strikes in the game, perfect for breaking bosses.
Weaknesses
Lackluster kit
Even with his Spiral, Zardin just can't keep up with better positioned Adventurers. , he can’t keep up with other Adventurers.
No Recovery
Zardin has a huge health pool, but he has to stay at full health to be most effective, and he has no way on his own to do so. He relies on his teammates for recovery and support.
Dragon Recommendations
- Siren: The best option for Zaradin's kit.
- Big Chungus: One of the strongest Water dragons, and a good pick for Zaradin.Â
- Leviathan: The best DPS Strength dragon for Water Adventurers, even inflicts potent Bog.
- DY!Jeanne: An alternative to Leviathan, she’s best with crit rate boosts.
Weapon Recommendations
For Water, Agito weapons are slightly superior to HDT2, but overall they are roughly equivalent.Â
Wyrmprint Recommendations
Pair 1
Pair 2
The Shining Overlord is overwhelmingly the best print for Zardin. Thanks to his Frostbite kit, His Clever Brother is the best secondary print.Â
