She deals less melee damage than Veruk and less ranged damage than Oloc. Only to of her abilities are good. Her innate is useful. Her herospell is good. She has the least hp.
I mean 100 HP at level 1 that is less than Swiftwind!!!
If numbers are the only thing that matter, I could say that she deals more ranged damage than Veruk and more melee damage than Oloch. But that’s idiotic, because Veruk is a melee hero and she’s not. You need to look at more than just "this number is higher".
Asra attacks almost twice as fast as Oloch, so she deals twice the damage in the same amount of time he deals one amount, on top of which she knocks armour down with each strike and uses poison which allows her to face armoured enemies and defeat them, when Oloch would struggle against magic resistant enemies.
She has the least HP overall, but you forgetting the 600 HP shield. That means she goes into battle for 4 seconds with 936 HP (the highest of all heroes (ever)), and 22 seconds later; after she can be instantly move to another location to heal naturally plus still attack with her considerable range; she can go back into battle with the full HP shield again. Even if she does die, she respawns the fastest of all the heroes too (tied with Mortemis).
With good micro management, you can get her to use Spider Bite on a big threat, ending a huge enemy in seconds, where Oloch or Veruk would have to fight it.
