Welcome to our comprehensive Elarion Hero Guide for Fellowship on life.gg—your essential resource for gaming strategies, redeem codes, news, and dungeon crawler builds. Fellowship, the co-op multiplayer dungeon crawler from Chief Rebel (published by Arc Games), entered Early Access on October 16, 2025, and Elarion, the new Agility-based ranged DPS hero, has quickly become a meta staple for burst and mobility-focused playstyles. Introduced in the launch trailer as the “Sentinel of Starlight,” Elarion is a mythic bowman who blends celestial magic with precision archery, excelling in both single-target boss damage and AoE wave control. This guide covers his lore, abilities, talents, rotation, gearing, and tips.
As of October 18, 2025 (Patch 1.0), Elarion’s cooldown reductions and tattoo synergies shine in Chaos mode, with a 78% win rate in high-tier groups. Pair him with Sylvie for sustain or Helena for peels to maximize his rolls. No redeem codes yet (check our codes page), but Early Access events reward free talent resets.
Elarion Lore and Role Overview
Elarion Beau’ghai is an ancient celestial ranger, the surviving half of a myth that forged the world’s fate. As a guardian against corrupting forces, he joins the Fellowship to protect allies from similar perils, wielding a bow infused with starlight. In gameplay, Elarion is a ranged DPS specializing in long-range bursts and mobility:
- Strengths: High single-target/AoE damage, excellent kiting, Focus resource enables agile rotations.
- Weaknesses: Mana-hungry early game, vulnerable if rooted; needs positioning for max output.
- Playstyle: Builder/spender with Focus (regens over time or via shots). Prioritize high-threat targets (e.g., bosses) and use rolls to dodge while charging.
- Meta Fit: SS-tier for boss phases (e.g., Veigar counters) and waves; synergizes with Tanks like Helena for peels and Healers like Sylvie for uptime.
Elarion rewards awareness—mark targets, maintain Focus, and leverage his haste for CDR.
Elarion Abilities
Elarion’s kit revolves around Focus (capped at 100, shown under the bar) and Lunarlight Marks (applied via shots for extra damage). All abilities cleave, blending single-target and AoE seamlessly. From Method.gg and Icy Veins:
| Ability | Type | Description | Cooldown/Energy | Tips |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Focused Shot | Basic Attack | Quick celestial arrow that builds Focus and applies Lunarlight Mark (increases damage taken by 10%, stacks 3x). | None (Auto) | Use to maintain Focus regen and mark priority targets. Prioritize highest HP/threat enemies. |
| Highwind Arrow | Builder | Fires a multi-shot arrow that pierces lines and generates Focus charges. | 8s / 20 Focus | Core builder—use to ramp for spenders. Rolls during cast for mobility. |
| Heartseeker Barrage | Spender | Unloads a volley of arrows on marked enemies, popping Marks for burst damage (cleaves to nearby foes). | 12s / 40 Focus | Main spender—save for bosses. CDR from haste reduces to 8s late-game. |
| Starfall Volley | AoE Spender | Calls down star shots in a cone, applying Marks and slowing enemies (20% speed reduction). | 15s / 50 Focus | Wave clear king—position for lineups. Synergizes with Highwind for quick follow-ups. |
| Grappling Arrow | Utility | Grapples a large AoE, pulling enemies and slowing them 65% for 8s. | 20s / 30 Focus | CC staple—use to group mobs for Barrage. Great for kiting. |
| Event Horizon (Ultimate) | Ultimate | Boosts haste/CDR (+30% haste, CDR = haste value) and reduces Focus costs 50%; Highwind CDR on Barrage hits, Barrage CDR on Volley. | 120s | Burst window—pop for bosses; enables double Volley rotations. |
Resource Management: Focus regens at 10/s base (+haste); cap at 100. Early game: Build with Focused/Highwind. Late: Spenders flow seamlessly.
Elarion Talents and Builds
Talents unlock via level-ups and events—focus on Highwind early for power spikes, then multishot for scaling. From Method.gg and Overgear:
Recommended Talent Build (DPS Focus)
| Tier | Talent | Why Pick It? |
|---|---|---|
| Early (Levels 1-10) | Highwind Arrow Multishot (+2 arrows) | Boosts Focus gen and AoE early; synergizes with basic shots for quick ramps. |
| Mid (Levels 11-20) | Heartseeker Barrage CDR (-20% CD) | Enables more bursts; haste from gear amplifies to -30%. |
| Late (Levels 21+) | Starfall Volley Cleave (+15% width) | Wave dominance; pops Marks on groups for chain damage. |
| Utility | Ranger’s Resilience (Personal CD: +20% dodge for 5s) | Mobility survival; use during Grapple cooldowns. |
Alternative Builds:
- Boss Burst: Prioritize Barrage CDR over Multishot for single-target spikes.
- Wave Sustain: Multishot + Volley Cleave for AoE farming.
Gear Priority (Agility Focus):
- Weapon: Bows with +Focus gen/CDR (e.g., Starshot Longbow).
- Armor: Haste/ mobility sets (e.g., Celestial Strider for +20% roll speed).
- Legendaries: Event Horizon Amulet (+50% ultimate uptime).
Elarion Rotation and Playstyle
Elarion’s rotation is fluid and mobile—prioritize Focus building and Mark popping. From Icy Veins and Method.gg:
Single-Target (Boss Phases)
- Focused Shot x2-3 → Build Marks and Focus.
- Highwind Arrow → Ramp charges.
- Heartseeker Barrage → Pop Marks for burst.
- Grappling Arrow → Pull adds if present.
- Starfall Volley → Maintain pressure if Focus allows.
- Ultimate (Event Horizon) → Double spenders during haste window.
AoE (Wave Clears)
- Focused Shot → Mark clusters.
- Starfall Volley → Cone sweep for slows/Marks.
- Highwind Arrow → Multi-shot pierce.
- Heartseeker Barrage → Cleave pops.
- Grappling Arrow → Group for follow-ups.
Playstyle Notes: Stay mobile—roll during casts to dodge. Target highest-threat/HP enemies. Early game: Builder focus for survival. Late: Spender loops with +haste for 80% uptime.
Tips for Playing Elarion
- Positioning: Backline with LoS; use Grapple to reposition groups. Avoid roots—haste mitigates slows.
- Synergies: Pair with Helena (peels for safe shots) or Sylvie (HoT for uptime). In Endless, Rime adds CC for Volley setups.
- Common Mistakes: Over-spending Focus early—build to 80% before bursts. Ignoring Marks—always prioritize popping.
- F2P Focus: Farm events for Highwind talents; no paywall for core kit.
- Meta Fit: SS-tier DPS; excels in Chaos with RNG haste rolls.
