What would you do if you had the ability to become someone you are not? Would you use the power to fool your friends and family? Or would you do something greater, something that’s beyond the understanding of the human brain?

The newest AFK Arena hero Mishka has been given this ability. Except her shapeshifting abilities are limited to animals such as bears.

Before Mishka, the last Wilder hero that was released in the game was Raku. If you want to know more about the nature-loving Wilders, check out our previous blog.

Appearance

Mishka is a hero from the Wilder faction under the Tank class.

At first glance, Mishka looks like the ultimate friend of nature. She is wearing arm and leg warmers made of fur, as well as a pair of bear ears. This just shows that she is one with the bears. You can also spot her pair of bear gloves — cute, but deadly.

Mishka’s splash art also shows her fresh green outfit to highlight her part as a responsible Wilder hero. You can also spot her two bear friends in the background.

Lore

Mishka’s lore just reveals who she really is — a skin shifter. She can instantly transform into a bear or the form of a young girl, whenever and wherever she pleases.

Aside from bears, she is also friends with wolves as seen in her abilities.

Of course, her power is possible through the mystic ways of the Dreamwood, an area in Esperia.

The Dreamwood exists at the brink of the material realm, straddling between that which is real and that which is immaterial. The magic there warps the laws of physics, and some Wilder folk who frequent the Dreamwood developed unique traits, absorbing this magic. Gradually, this allowed them to transform themselves, and they became known as the Skinshifters.

Abilities

  • Werebear – Mishka transforms into Werebear form and jumps into the densest area of enemies, dealing 250% damage to surrounding enemies as she hits the ground, knocking them into the air and stunning them for 5 seconds, 250% additional damage is also dealt to the central enemy heroes.

After hitting the ground, Mishka lets out a terrifying growl, which reduces enemies’ Defense Ratings by 30% for 8 seconds, this effect cannot be stacked.

Mishka is able to ignore and is immune to all control effects while in Werebear form.

Lvl 2: Enemies’ Defense Ratings are reduced by 40%.

Lvl 3: Enemies are stunned for 6 seconds.

  • Dire Wolves – Mishka fights with two wolves by her side. The wolves possess 150% of Mishka’s Attack Rating and 50% of all her other attributes.

When a wolf attacks an enemy they will mark the enemy with a “Feral Bite” mark, which lasts for 10 seconds.

Each time Mishka deals damage to a marked enemy, she will deal additional damage equal to 5% of the enemy’s current health, but the damage shall not exceed 300% of Mishka’s Attack Rating.

Lvl 2: Other attributes shared by the wolves are increased to 80%

Lvl 3: Attack Rating shared by the wolves is increased to 200%.

Lvl 4: The additional damage Mishka deals to enemies marked with a Feral Bite is increased to equal 10% of their current health, but shall not exceed 600% of Mishka’s Attack Rating value.

  • Call of the Wild – Mishka’s wolves sprint over to the enemy target and grip onto them, causing them to be unable to move or use abilities, marking them with a Feral Bite mark in the process.

Mishka then slashes the enemy 3 times, dealing 220% damage per attack, with the final attack knocking the enemy down, stunning them for 2 seconds.

When one of Mishka’s wolves dies, the number of attacks becomes 2, when both wolves have died, this ability cannot be used.

Lvl 2: Damage of each attack is increased to 260%.

Lvl 3: Damage of each attack is increased to 300%.

Lvl 4: Damage of each attack is increased to 500% if the enemy is using a shield.

  • Natural Rejuvenation – Mishka pours a healing resin over herself and her wolves, that heals a value equal to 150% of her Attack Rating and also provides a shield that exists for 6 seconds which is able to mitigate damage worth 300% of Mishka’s Attack Rating.

Lvl 2: Shield’s value is increased to 330% of Mishka’s Attack Rating.

Lvl 3: Shield’s value is increased to 360% of Mishka’s Attack Rating

Lvl 4: All allied heroes receive healing and are shielded.

Tips for using Mishka

  • Mishka is a strong tank and support. She has decent crowd control (CC) abilities and can deal extra damage against marked enemies. She can be a good hero to use in the Twisted Realm and Abyssal Expedition.
  • Aside from playing her role as a tank, Mishka is also a good debugger and damage dealer against bosses.
  • Mishka’s 9/9 furniture ability, Nature Unity, is pretty overpowered if you’ll ask us. What it does is each time a Wolf dies, Mishka’s Energy is immediately replenished and her Attack Rating is increased by 20% and her Attack Speed is increased by 25 points for the remainder of the battle. Can you just imagine her energy regeneration?

Heroes that can synergize with Mishka

  • Grezhul – Grezhul is a tank unit that can summon his mini skeletal army. The skeletons will always have the same level as Grezhul’s. The only catch is they gradually lose HP over time, so it’s ideal to use these undead underlings against magic-based heroes.

Grezhul will also thrive in a team full of mages since his Shadow Shield ability can absorb up to 200% damage and will cause the same percentage when broken.

At +30 Unlocks, his Signature Item isn’t too bad as well since he summons a skeletal warrior every 7.5 seconds.

  • Kren – One of the heroes introduced earlier this year, Kren is very well-rounded and a good pair with Mishka. He is a Ranger class hero belonging to the Mauler faction. He is an Agility type whose role is to deal continuous damage against the enemies.

Kren’s Old Pal is a very impressive AoE ability, targeting the backline to catch unaware enemies. After Kren casts his landmine to the backline, spam your ultimate abilities and if luck is on your side, enemies would be pushed back into the landmine for your heroes to deal longer, bigger amounts of damage.

  • Ezizh – Ezizh’s Feeble Mind disables a random enemy’s attacks. Aside from the disable, this ability is also very useful because it lures an enemy to walk in your direction, allowing you and your team to launch an all-out attack to deal further damage.

To top it all off, his ultimate ability, Fissure, can deal an AoE damage of up to a whopping 220% when maxed out.

BlueStacks has a feature called Multi-Instance which allows you to use multiple accounts and perform summons all at the same time with just a few clicks. This way you can speed up the rerolling process by having multiple tabs opened and controlling them under the same device.
