• Multiple equipment slots — Banished revolves around stacking gear; Talos is built for it
• Smite synergy — Smite spells route through Talos for end-of-turn burst
• Durability + damage — works from early floors to the final boss

• Equipment-dependent — gear loss tanks output
• Vulnerable to swarms — solo nature suffers vs many enemies
• Banish-effect fragile — losing equipment ends the build

1. +1 equipment slot — most impactful upgrade; concentrate more gear
2. +X Smite damage — multiplies Smite-based finishers
3. +5–10 HP — tank reinforcement

Solo Carry (top tier)

Concentrate all equipment on Talos; pair with Lazarus League sub for gear quality. Run 4–6 Smite spells, finish with Talos.

Smite Storm

Use Talos as the shield, run Smite-heavy spell deck. Stygian Guard sub adds Magic Power scaling.

Equipment Distribute

Spread gear across multiple units with Talos as the hub. Railforged adds machinery-driven equipment.

• Swarm bosses (insects) → AoE Smite first, Talos tanks
• Tank bosses → focus-fire with Talos's single-target burst
• Debuff bosses → equipment provides resistance, Smite preempts
