Seven Deadly Sins: Origin Hendrickson — Hero Guide

One-Handed Sword is Hendrickson's support kit. Divine Pierce deals 99% and raises his own Healing Efficiency by 10% for 30 seconds, so casting it before the Ultimate increases the value of the heal that follows. Defensive Spell grants every allied hero +20% Defense for 40 seconds — a long, team-wide mitigation buff. His Ultimate, Magic Unleashed, is the centrepiece: it restores HP to allies in range equal to 0.5% of Max HP + 25% of Attack every second for 10 seconds.

The path's glue is the passive Grandmaster's Rally: using the Tag Skill restores 500 Magic Gauge when he is at 3 or fewer Magic Points. That keeps his support rotation running even on a tight Magic budget. As a free SR, this is the cheapest way to add a heal-over-time plus a team Defense buff to almost any composition.

Dual Swords turns Hendrickson into a non-elemental control Attacker. Dual Strike, his Normal Attack, has a 15% chance to cut the Special Attack cooldown by 1 second. Flash Sword teleports him behind the enemy for 178%, and against an enemy with reduced Movement Speed it Stuns them for 5 seconds and grants him +10% Crit Chance for 20 seconds. Rapid Edge deals 281% and Back Attacks increase its Crit Damage by 30%. His Ultimate, Knight's Sword, deals 421% and slows the target's Movement Speed by 30% for 20 seconds — which itself sets up the rest of the kit.

The whole path keys off slow: the Ultimate inflicts it, then Flash Sword's 5-second Stun and the passive Morale Boost both pay off on the slowed target. Morale Boost gives allied heroes +10% Crit Chance when they attack a slowed enemy, so even on this self-Attacker path he adds a small team buff. This is the path for players who can hold positioning and chain the slow-into-control loop.

Lance is Hendrickson's self-sufficient Darkness bruiser. Abyss Lance Breaker deals 161% and grants Berserk for 10 seconds — Berserk raises Crit Chance by 15% and Crit Damage by 30%, but drains 2% of Max HP every second (HP stops being consumed at 5% or lower). "Acid Tower" deals 273% and gains +30% damage while Berserk is active, so the rotation is to enter Berserk and immediately cash it. His Ultimate, "Acid Down", deals 387%, adds +25% Crit Chance against Darkness-Burst targets, and the final strike removes their Darkness Burst.

The passive Veteran Holy Knight adds bonus damage equal to 12% of Attack whenever he attacks an enemy with Darkness Burst active, which rewards pairing him with a Darkness-Burst setup. This is the highest personal-damage path, but the Berserk HP drain means it wants short, decisive fights rather than long attrition.

The pattern matches every hero: odd levels (1, 3, 8) are flat Attack / Defense / Max HP — smaller values here because Hendrickson is an SR — and even levels are the meaningful skill amplifiers. Prioritise reaching the amp levels for whichever path you committed to.

Hendrickson's universal pick is Black Flame Wings (activating a Burst → +28% Attack and +6% Crit Chance for 10 sec), available across his weapon types. On a budget SR, Crimson Flame (Burst → +28% Attack) and Jet-black (Ultimate → 20% chance of +50% Crit Chance for 7 sec) are strong, accessible options on every path. Some passives are weapon-type-specific in his data: Skyborne Gale (Dual Swords only) rewards Back Attacks with −16% enemy Crit Resistance, which suits the Dual Swords path; Gluttonous Soul and Corrupted Conviction appear on the Longsword (One-Handed Sword) list; and Thorn of Greed (Lance only, +7% damage to DoT targets) is a niche Lance option.

Which Hendrickson weapon should I build first?

One-Handed Sword for most accounts — it is the cheapest way to add a heal-over-time Ultimate plus a team-wide +20% Defense buff. Build Dual Swords if you want a non-elemental control Attacker that slows and Stuns, and Lance if you want a self-sufficient Darkness bruiser with the Berserk crit self-buff.

Is Hendrickson worth building as an SR?

Yes for utility value. He is free and cheap to ascend, and One-Handed Sword's heal-over-time plus +20% team Defense help almost any composition while you build toward premium SSRs. He is not an endgame damage headliner — his stats and multipliers are SR-tier.

What does the Lance path's Berserk do?

Abyss Lance Breaker grants Berserk for 10 sec: +15% Crit Chance and +30% Crit Damage, at a cost of 2% Max HP every second (HP stops draining at 5% or lower). "Acid Tower" also gains +30% damage while Berserk is active, so the loop is to enter Berserk and immediately spend it.

Does Hendrickson have Combined-Attack partners?

No — his in-game data ships zero Combined-Attack entries, so there are no fixed combo partners and no team-bonus text for him. Use the live community teams below to see how players actually run him.

What does his world passive do?

Phytocommunication marks nearby gathering points on the open-world map — a utility tool for gathering and exploration. It has no combat effect and does not change his damage.
