Water Hellhound (Tarq)

Tarq the Water Hellhound is a particularly useful monster in Summoners War suitable from early game as a pure nuker to end game, to speed up dungeons runs, and as a DPS too.

His usage on Dragon B10 is what made him the most famous Hellhound, here he can speed an entire team especially if used in combo with another one of himself, a double-tarq team can infact reach <60 seconds time in DB10 if tuned properly. This is possible for hish third skill which performs an attack with 2 other allies lowering also the cooldown of them, and the second skill's multiplier (hige damage on single target that scales on speed).

A good and tested double-tarq team is this: (think about how many times Galleon can def-break AoE with 2 cooldown refreshers on your team!)

Verdehile (Leader) - violent/ revenge spd/cr/atk 16k hp - 1600atk 170spd 100% crit rate and 120 critical damage

Galleon (water pirate captain) - violent/shield spd/atk%/acc% 15k hp 1000atk 220spd 90% accuracy

Hwa (Fire Rakshasa) - violent/blade spd/cd%/atk% 19k HP 1500atk 200spd 77% crit rate 140 crit dmg% 40% acccuracy

Tarq 1 - violent/blade spd/cd%/atk% 14k HP 1400atk 190speed 75% crit rate 170% crit damage

Tarq 2 - swift/ shield + similar stats

Note that's really important your tarqs goes before Verdehile.

Water Hellhound in Pvp and other PvE contents

In PvP he's a good help in early game if teamed up with an atttack buffer and a def breaker he can easy one-shot single target, after that once you reach Fighter 1 or 2 he may be rendered useless because you'll need an AoE nuker to make some progress.

In PvE he remains a good to have unit in Giant B10 and in Light Raid Beast.

Tarq Suggested Runes
