Sanctified Circle
Unlocks at level 1
Cooldown: 0s

Enemies within the circle cannot heal; every 0.5s, they take 35% true damage, plus extra true damage equal to 20% of their lost HP. The extra true damage cannot exceed 240% of Faramir's ATK. If no enemies remain in the circle for 1s, the skill ends immediately.

Review
Review
Faramor is an A-Rank Rogue of the Wilder faction focused on dealing massive amounts of true damage while enabling his allies to do the same. He is also able to counter healing or resurrecting enemies.
Before the start of battle, Faramor buffs an adjacent ally, increasing both his own and his ally’s attack considerably, especially with skill power charms, while also dealing damage to adjacent enemies and stunning them periodically. This is a Passive skill.
His Ultimate creates a magic circle on the ground, which deals true damage to enemies inside and remains as long as Faramor has energy to burn, or until all enemies leave the circle. This circle denies enemy healing, and also deals extra damage based on enemy damage taken, which makes him very powerful in afk stages and dream realm.
His non-passive skill, Glory’s Embrace, gives him a shield and deals damage to the enemy, which becomes true damage if he gets buffed.
Now, for a quick overview of her performance in the various game modes:
Story and AFK stages – Faramor is quite possibly the best AFK pushing character of his season, because he not only enables allies to deal a lot more damage, but he also quickly ramps up his own damage while also denying enemy healing therefore making him extremely useful in AFK stages, especially with manual play.
Dream Realm – As of the time of writing this, Faramor has been tested in 4 bosses. In Snow Stomper and Lone Gaze, Faramor displays top performance, often replacing Shakir thanks to his powerful buff and personal damage. For Illucia, she counters his kit so he does not do well there, and for Thalassa, being a Melee hero, he does not do well there either, making him top tier on 2/4 bosses so far. Faramor is also very good in most other bossing content as well.
PVP – While Faramor, in theory, has immense PVP potential thanks to his Supreme+ skill effectively countering reviving heroes, and his Ultimate countering enemy healing, Faramor does have trouble surviving against high burst teams, and performs best in Supreme Arena with Wilder tiles, but when he does survive, he performs very well.
Investment
Faramor loses a lot of his damage at 1 copy as a DPS, and requires more investment to be worth using.
Legendary+ gives him extra Haste.
Mythic+ allows him to convert his allies' damage into true damage, while also converting his Normal Attacks into Glory’s Embrace.
EX +10 Grants Faramor extra attack and expands the magic circle when an enemy is defeated. This has limited usage in the Dream Realm.
Supreme+ cuts enemy healing in half after they revive inside of his magic circle.
Mythic+ EX +8 is a good stopping point for Faramor in PVE content, with Supreme+ EX +15 being more relevant for PVP.
Conclusion
Faramor is a powerful damage dealer and buffer that thrives in all game modes, with some caveats. In AFK Stages he works best with manual play, in Dream Realm, some bosses counter him, and in PVP he needs to be protected. Pull him to Mythic+, or use the swap ticket, if you have it, as Faramor has proven to be the best A-Rank of the season.

EX Investment
The EX investment information were created with the help of Seas0n, the creator of the
AFK Analytica community that supports AFK Arena and AFK Journey.
You can find their website here and their discord here.
Since the
Temporal Essence
and
Twilight Essence
are very hard to obtain, you have to be really careful with the using them to upgrade the EX weapon. And in this guide we ordered all characters by the priority when it comes to how much they need investment in their EX weapon to work well and where should you stop to get the best bang for your buck.
Why does the +8 breakpoint appear so often?
Because the raw stats you get from upgrading the EX weapon help you more than the passive in some cases. Also, to upgrade the EX from +5 to +8 you need only 30x
Temporal Essence
, while the remaining two levels require additional 45x
Temporal Essence
. So you get the best bang for your buck stopping at +8.
Color explanation:
+0 - the base investment for the character,
+5/8 - the next step that you should do when investing into that character,
+10/15 - the final step you should do when investing into that character - you can go beyond that later though once you have the Essences to spare.
