If this hero is in a team with a certain other hero, then a trait will be unlocked or enables additional effects of a trait. (Sometimes more than one other hero is needed in the team.)
The target or allies have the chance to do an extra basic attack. This can be a result of a buff (like Haste), or granted by a trait (like Valkin's Lead By Example). There are also a few rare runes that have a passive/4th stat (20% chance for an extra attack). An extra basic attack can trigger an Epic effect (with a few exceptions like Hog Wild). Note: There is no icon for this effect. It's used on this wiki page only.
Target is forced to attack the provoker for the next 3 turns.
Rage - buff (Damage/Damage Reduction/Stack)
Rage modifies abilities of Barbarians and boosts their ATK as well as Damage Reduction. It stacks up to 5 times, resets on each dungeon room, and cannot be copied or stolen; doing so will purge it.
Self and allied Barbarians are immune to Fear and if they would die, ignores death but gains a shield for a turn (like Ethereal Spirit, HP does not drop below 1). Unbridled Rage happens once per dungeon.
All allies heal [25/35/50]% of their maximum health when inflicted with Frozen. Enemy and ally skills inflicting Frozen on allies will trigger this effect. The gained health depends on rank (I-III) of this trait.
Melee physical attack on target enemy, OR heals target friendly construct, OR target ally gains a class-specific buff (Tanks get DEF+, Healers get CRIT+ and SKL+, Casters get +1 ENERGY, all others get ATK+.)
Self and allies are immune to Exhaustion (=Energy Loss that is caused by use of abilities). Note: Passive traits like epic Malice "All Hope is Lost" can still drain energy.
Heals allies when Venom is applied on the enemies by Cobressa. The heal amount increases with the rank (I/II) of this trait. Enemies immune to Venom prevent the heal effect.
All allies and self gain an additional [5%/10%/15%] Chaos Damage Reduction (max 50%), depending on the rank of this trait (I/II/III). Skill increases the percent value.
Silences all enemies and Buffs allies' Damage. This Hero gains stacks of Storm Power equal to the number of Light or Honorbound Heroes on the team. Starts Powered. (The Empowered Buff to applied to all allies and the caster to double (2x) their damage.)
Counters:
Balog the Loud can be countered by making use of the following traits and special attacks:
Melee Spirit attack for [150% ATK] base damage, will purge up to [1/2/3] buffs on target and add [1/2/3] elemental buffs to all allies. The number of purged and added buffs depends on the rank (I/II/III) of this special attack. The elemental buffs are I=Hunter, II=Resistance, III=Touch. The elemental buffs will be the same type as the target. Example: If a Dark enemy is attacked the buffs will be: Dark Rancor I, Disease Resistance, and Disease Touch.
Armor piercing Ranged Physical attack for [92.5% ATK] base damage that Blinds the target (lowering their attack and defense, 73%@lvl 80) and reduces the target's energy by 1. Starts Powered.
