Player notes
Homa is a Legendary Destroyer tagged with Iria. In practical terms they cover magical damage, DoT, and multi-target pressure. Iria Destroyer with magic AoE for progression content.
Clear packs with NRG support; not a long-term exclusive carry.
Watch the magic lane carefully—Destroyers pressure with magic/DoT but are soft into Watcher matchups. Pair them with a physical flex when the enemy Watcher count spikes.
Star plan on this page (“Medium early”) is a budgeting hint: finish the first power spike that stabilizes clears, then reassess against your enabler and main carry before dumping every shard here.
