The latest RAID: Shadow Legends fusion event lets you summon a new Legendary champion: Granyt Doorkeep. This Dwarf of Spirit affinity brings utility in both PvP and PvE, with a kit built to counter buff-heavy defenses and control teams. The window to complete the fusion in the popular RPG is limited, so precision and planning matter.

In this guide, you’ll find the fusion requirements, an ability breakdown, best use cases, and tactics to make the most of Granyt Doorkeep. Whether you’re pushing Arena, Hydra, or Faction Wars, you’ll see where he fits and how to unlock him efficiently.

Fusion Requirements & Timeline

The fusion follows RAID’s classic formula:

• 16 Gladewulfs (Rare champions) → combine into
• 4 Hilda Arnorndottrs (Epic champions) → fuse into
• 1 Granyt Doorkeep (Legendary Champion)

You’ll also need around 1–2 million silver and sufficient XP to level up the progression tiers. But be careful: if you don’t finish the fusion before the event ends, you lose your chance to get Granyt.

The event begins on September 22, 2025 and will run until October 8, 2025. Make sure your planning accounts for daily progress so you don’t fall behind as the timer winds down.

Granyt Doorkeep Overview

Granyt is built more as a utility champion than raw damage dealer, though he has aggressive potential in the right hands. Let’s examine his kit:

A1 – You’re Barred!

Attacks one enemy three times. Each hit has a chance to remove a random buff, and ignores 20% of the target’s DEF. This makes him excellent at stripping buffs from opponents, especially in PvP where defensive buffs are common.

A2 – Geode Haymaker

Deals AoE damage. Before the attack, Granyt places Increase ACC on all allies for 2 turns. Then he applies Decrease DEF and Block Buffs to all enemies for 2 turns. This skill helps your team land debuffs and counters protected enemies in Arena, Hydra, and faction content.

A3 – Demolisher Blow

This is Granyt’s signature move. Before attacking, he clears his own debuffs, then places Shatter (15%) and Increased Crit Damage (30%) on all allies. He attacks one enemy ignoring Unkillable, Stone Skin, and Block Damage buffs, and deals 100% extra damage if the target is not under any of those effects. Plus, he gains an extra turn if the kill is successful. It’s basically a burst + team buff + control utility all rolled into one.

Passive – Stonefaced

At the start of his turn, Granyt removes control debuffs (e.g. Fear, Provoke, Stun, Freeze, Sleep, Petrification). He also deals 20% more damage to enemies who have no buffs. This enhances his reliability against control teams and strengthens his threat when buff removal is already in place.

Aura

Provides a +20% Crit Rate in all battles. That’s a simple but effective stat that helps teams that struggle to reach crit targets.

In summary: Granyt is a buff-buster and control-resistant utility champion. His kit is especially potent against teams that stack buffs, use Unkillable/Stone Skin setups, or rely heavily on control.

Where Granyt Excels & Where He Struggles

His Strengths and best use cases include:

• Arena & PvP: Top-tier pick for breaking through buffed teams using Unkillable, Stone Skin, or Block Damage. His ability to ignore defense and strip buffs makes him a high threat.
• Hydra & PvE: His multi-hit A1, AoE debuffs, and clean control resistance make him usable in mid-level Hydra rotations, especially if you lack access to stronger magic champions.
• Faction Wars/Cursed City: As a Dwarf, Granyt’s survivability, team buffs, and utility help in these content areas where control and buffs are common.
• Fire Knight: Strong in FK teams that rely on debuffs and penetration, thanks to his A3 ignoring defenses.

On the other hand, Granyt might have a few limitations of his own:

• HP damage scaling: Because he scales off HP, he may not match pure nukers later in late-game progression.
• Not a meta displacer: While useful, he’s unlikely to outshine top-tier champions in endgame PvP or Hydra.
• Spirit affinity: In Hydra, Spirit often gives matchup disadvantages versus Magic-affinity bosses or waves.

The bottom line is that Granyt is extremely valuable in many rosters, but he’s best used as a utility plus disruption pick rather than a pure damage anchor.

Tips to Complete the Fusion Efficiently

It goes without saying that stacking your silver and XP before the event starts so you’re not resource-blocked mid-fusion is a must for these occasions. Additionally, keep the following in mind:

• Plan your Rare → Epic fuses carefully. Don’t waste useful Rares unless they’re duplicates.
• Complete daily missions early to contribute to fusion progress and avoid last-minute rushes.
• Coordinate with your clan/alliance for resource sharing—some events let you distribute fusion materials.
• Don’t leave fusion to the last minute, especially toward the Legendary tier; mistakes or server issues can cost you the champion.

The Oktoberfest fusion event is your shot to add Granyt Doorkeep to your collection. He’s not just about damage, but control resistance, buff stripping, and synergy with tougher comps. With focused planning, smart use of resources, and steady daily fusing, you can finish him in time. And for a smoother experience—especially when juggling menus, managing materials, or comparing candidate champions—consider playing RAID: Shadow Legends on PC with BlueStacks for better controls, visuals, and efficiency.
