Description
Gordon is a Generation 7 Legendary Lancer who wears down enemies through poison and carefully timed debuffs. A teacher and former mayor, he survived the destruction of his city and turned his scientific knowledge against those threatening other settlements.
Damage over time in hero battles
Poison Blast creates a damaging mist for three seconds. Enemies in the affected area take damage every half-second, with each listed tick reaching 70% of Gordon’s Attack at skill level 5. Keeping enemies in that area matters more than treating the displayed coefficient as one immediate explosion.
Toxic Molotov applies a two-second poison to its target. At level 5, it deals 35% of Attack every half-second and raises the target’s damage taken by 25%. This vulnerability is distinct from reducing Defense, and it should not be added to the tick coefficient as though both numbers described the same damage event.
Tolerization raises Gordon’s Defense by up to 75%.
Editorial recommendation: judge Gordon’s Arena or Exploration contribution by whether his poison has time to work and whether the team attacks the vulnerable target. A short battle or lost target can produce a different result from a fight in which the full damage-over-time window plays out.
Three different Expedition schedules
| Skill | Schedule | Level-5 effect |
|---|---|---|
| Venom Infusion | Every two Lancer attacks | 100% extra Lancer damage; poison makes the target deal 20% less damage for one turn |
| Chemical Terror | Every three turns, lasting one turn | Lancers deal 150% more damage; all enemy troops deal 30% less damage |
| Toxic Release | Every four turns, lasting two turns | Enemy Infantry take 30% more damage; enemy Marksmen deal 30% less damage |
Venom Infusion counts Lancer attacks, while the other two skills use troop turns. Do not replace those separate conditions with an always-active combined bonus. Chemical Terror helps friendly Lancers offensively, but its damage reduction applies to all enemy troop types.
Toxic Release has a different target split: Infantry become more vulnerable and Marksmen lose damage output.
Bonecrux Venom
Potion #1325 increases Gordon’s damage dealt by 25% and lowers poisoned targets’ Attack by 15% at weapon skill level 5. Attack reduction is not the same label as the Expedition damage-dealt reductions. Keep the Exploration poison interaction separate from troop-battle poison.
Bio Assault raises Rally Squad Lethality by 15% at skill level 5. It is a rally effect, not an extra Arena damage tick or a universal garrison bonus. The weapon’s reference stats appear alongside its two effects below.
