Roblox : Number One Hero’s Protege
This ability is the headline act. The Familiar grants Traitless (Vigilante) a 5,000% increase in damage, which makes it a standout pick if that unit is on your team.
Inspiring Vigilante
This ability supports Anniversary-type units in two ways:
- It raises their critical rate by 45%.
- It cuts their upgrade cost by 40%.
Cheaper upgrades and more crits make it a handy economy and damage boost for a team built around those units.
Movement Bonus
When a unit is moved, the Familiar boosts that unit’s damage by 50% for 30 seconds. Right after the move, Traitless (Vigilante) also deals 50% of his current damage as Sourceless Damage to enemies in the moved unit’s range, with a 10-second cooldown. These effects also apply when Traitless (Vigilante) himself is moved, except when Dark Tendrils teleport him.

You’re Not Going Anywhere
This ability gives the unit crowd-control and crit support:
- The first time an enemy enters the unit’s range, it pulls the first enemy on the path to the nearest point to the unit. Only one pulled enemy can exist at a time.
- When the unit defeats the pulled enemy, its next attack is a guaranteed crit. The buff ends after that attack.
