Introduction: Hellfreak’s Role and Reputation
Raid Shadow Legends Hellfreak is a Spirit Affinity Attack champion from the Demonspawn faction with a niche kit focused on HP swap, buff stealing, and Decrease Defence. Though often rated as one of the weaker rares, his unique abilities can offer value in specific situations.
Skills
Speed Aura
Hellfreak also brings a valuable Aura to the team: he increases ally Speed in all battles by 10%. This is considered a fantastic aura for a rare champion and can be particularly useful in Doom Tower secret rooms where rare-only restrictions apply and a Speed lead is often highly desired.
Vile Blades
Hits one enemy twice, each with up to a 45% chance to place 60% Decrease Defence for 2 turns. Strong single-target debuff for a rare.
Mind Games
Attacks one enemy with up to a 75% chance to steal all buffs before hitting. Solid utility with a 3-turn cooldown when booked.
Worst Nightmare
Swaps HP with an enemy and gains an extra turn. Needs Accuracy to land and can be useful in niche cases, though inconsistent on auto.

Artifact Sets and Build Advice
Artifact Recommendations
Speed
Speed is one of the most important stats in Raid Shadow Legends, whether you’re playing PvE or PvP, making the Speed Set one of the most valuable in the game. Early on, you can farm this set from Stage 6 of the Campaign, and as you progress, you’ll shift to farming it in the Dragon’s Lair. Acquiring good Speed gear is often one of your first major farming priorities.
Accuracy
The Accuracy set, farmable from Dragon’s Lair or Campaign Stage 5 (Felwin’s Gate), boosts your chances to land debuffs. It’s S-tier for early game progression, especially when substats and Great Hall bonuses are limited. Accuracy is crucial—without it, most debuffs won’t land. A good rule: multiply the dungeon stage by 10 to estimate how much accuracy you need (e.g., Stage 10 = 100 Accuracy).
Perception
This set, crafted in the Forge using materials from the Arena and Faction Wars, is an upgraded Accuracy set that also boosts Speed—two of the most important stats for most champions. It’s highly valuable, easy to access in early to mid-game, and remains effective for optimizing builds later on. A versatile set, it’s great for nearly all areas of the game.

Final Thoughts: Niche Utility with Unique Mechanics
In essence, Hellfreak is a rare champion with an “almost interesting” kit, particularly his single-target Decrease Defence and HP swap abilities, complemented by a useful Speed Aura. While he might not be a top-tier champion, he can fill specific niches, especially for progressing players in Faction Wars and Doom Tower Secret Rooms where a Speed lead is beneficial. His primary challenge lies in his low Defence, which makes him difficult to keep alive, especially in competitive content like the Arena. However, his unique mechanics and the sheer fun factor he brings to the game are why he has garnered a dedicated following among players.
