• Avywenna (Electric)
• Arclight (Electric)
• Antal (Electric)

Is Wulfgard worth using?

Wulfgard is okay - he is not super-duper, but he is worth having on your team if you want someone who applies Heat Infliction. He works well in a mixed damage team, so if that's what you're aiming for, he is worth using.
