Aphelion the Distant is the new Crusader in the fourth tier of the Sasha's Schoolhouse Scourge Event. Don't let the size of this moon pixie fool you — Aphelion is a formidable Support/DPS Crusader. Their Waxing Gibbous increases the DPS of Crusaders at the top and bottom of the formation, and Twilight increases the effect of Waxing Gibbous for each Evil Crusader in the formation.

When it comes to self-DPS buffs, Synchronous Rotation increases Aphelion's DPS for each Crusader affected by Waxing Gibbous, and it gets even better once you unlock Waning Crescent to improve the buff for each Flora Crusader. Jade Rabbit is a straight self-DPS buff, and Lunar Mare increases Aphelion's DPS by the square of all owned Epic or Legendary items!

Strategies[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

• Currently the only evil Flora Crusader is Kris, the Enraged Elemental. Who increases global DPS for each level Flora Crusaders have.
• Both Dr. Almquist, Tusk Specialist and Hildr the Gym Teacher have abilities that increase global DPS based on evil crusaders in the formation(Dr. Almquist) or next to them (Hildr). Dr. Almquist also has the evil tag.
• Aphelion has some synergy with Dr. Evil, PhD. Because Waxing Gibbous gets stronger with each evil crusader (which Dr. Evil is) and Dr. Evil's Special Grant Money increases gold find when a supernatural crusader is infected (which Aphelion is) the only missing piece is a female crusader(Kris is female, male and supernatural) in infection range.
