Warcraft Rumble Crystal Shaper Guide

This Warcraft Rumble Crystal Shaper guide will show you how to defeat this boss in Un’Goro Crater.

Warcraft Rumble has a lot of hard missions you have to complete to progress. After covering how to deal with Falstad, it is time for our Warcraft Rumble Crystal Shaper guide. In it, we will learn everything about this encounter and the things you need to be aware of.

Warcraft Rumble Crystal Shaper Guide – The Encounter

Crystal Shaper is a pretty annoying enemy to go up against because of the encounter’s specifics. As his name suggests, this unit has crystals that both sides can choose. There are 3 crystals  to choose from, and each one offers something different:

  • Green Power Crystal – It grants a permanent healing effect to all units nearby when touched.
  • Red Power Crystal – This one grants movement speed to all nearby units when touched.
  • Blue Power Crystal – This option will add a freezing aura to everything nearby.

Besides the crystals, an important thing to know in this Warcraft Rumble Crystal Shaper Guide is that you need to survive the initial push. In fact, a lot of people say that this is the hardest part of the encounter. Once ready, you should be able to defeat the Crystal Shrper fairly easily.

In terms of tactics, there are several things you can do here. However, judging from our experience, it is probably best to try and take the Blue Power Crystal by destroying the tower that defends it. Besides its amazing effect, you will also deny your opponent’s ability to use the gold mine, which is huge. Alternatively, you can try going for the Red Power Crystal, but this will only help you if you have a specific draft.

Warcraft Rumble Crystal Shaper Guide – Setup

Now that you know some of the core things about this fight, it is time to take a look at the different drafts you can use. There are several options to choose from, but here is the draft we’ve chosen for the current fight:

  • Baron Rivendare – One of the best overall Warcraft Rumble leaders right now.
  • Necromancer
  • Ghoul
  • Whelp Eggs
  • Stonehoof Tauren
  • Skeleton Patty
  • S.A.F.E. Pilot

The idea of this draft is to overrun your opponent with numbers because Crystal Shaper does not have a lot of AoE damage. You have to try and protect your Necromancer and S.A.F.E. Pilot when you need to clear a cluster. If played right, you will simply overrun your enemy, and you don’t even need to use talents.

If the first setup does not seem interesting, you can also choose something else that involves a different leader:

This draft is pretty good because it offers a lot of tankiness and damage to deal with the initial push and win after that. Quilboar is one of the options that you can replace because his job is usually to tank. With that said, you can also use him for other things.

You have a proper tank, as well as ranged damaged and Tirion. As long as you use your rotation wisely, you should be able to have no problems defeating Crystal Shaper in Un’Goro Crater.
