Billy in Last Asylum: Plague

Published: 2026-10-24

Billy is a UR Warlock Tank, and 2 of 2 ranking lists put him at A. He fights with a marionette, and both of his team skills protect the allies with the highest ATK, which makes him a bodyguard for the damage dealers behind him. Billy is a late unlock, available once the server is 83 days old, and his full power comes only after a long run of star upgrades. He is not the same hero as William.

Billy Stats

A UR hero from the Warlock faction, Billy fills the tank role. Billy begins at level 1 with 5,614 HP, 40 DEF and 38 ATK, plus 52 Command (CMD), the troops the hero leads. At level 150 with all 50 star steps (10 full stars) the same hero reaches 2,348,117 HP, 16,131 DEF and 15,492 ATK, plus 350 CMD. That puts Billy 6th of 31 heroes in HP, 6th in DEF and 12th in ATK. Of the three, HP stands highest and ATK lowest.

The numbers above come from level and star upgrades alone. In battle base buildings, Ravens, gear, awakening and the exclusive weapon add more, so the full build reaches 980,246 power. In power at full build, Billy is 6th of 31. Level 150 on its own, before any star, gives 1,826,381 HP, 12,548 DEF and 12,051 ATK. Unlocking Billy takes 10 shards, the 50 star steps take 975 more. One UR Hero Omni Shard counts as 1 hero shard. Full stars open the way into the Hall of Honor, with an honor level cap of 600.

Billy Skills

Billy hits with his marionette every 0.83 seconds, standing in the front row, and the kit works as a shield for his team more than a weapon of his own. The table shows each skill at level 1 and at level 40, with the hero star that adds each upgrade. Stars are steps in this table, and the heroes list explains how they work.

Truth and Lies smashes the marionette stand into the ground for 510.3% to 1,458% ATK and gives the three highest-ATK allies a 70% chance to ignore stun. Star 10 adds a 15% damage cut for allied defense heroes, star 30 raises the stun chance by 30 points, and star 50 doubles the hit to 2,916% ATK and makes three enemy heroes take 15% more damage. Fate's Thread hits one target for 216.3% to 618% ATK and cuts the Energy DMG that the two highest-ATK allies take by 12.3% to 24%; with all stars it reaches 36% and covers a third ally. Puppet trims every hit by 8.2% to 16%, and Wooden Frame reaches 747% ATK.

Skill Priority

Guides that order Billy's skills begin with the active one, because it recharges fast and protects the heroes that matter.

  1. Fate's Thread. A 5-second cooldown makes it the skill you see most. Stars 15, 35 and 45 add 6 points, a third ally and 6 more points to the Energy DMG cut.
  2. Truth and Lies. The stun protection and the defense cut come early, and the bonus damage and enemy debuff come at star 50.
  3. Puppet. It adds a flat cut to all damage and gains an extra Energy DMG cut at star 50.
  4. Wooden Frame. The auto attack comes last, and Tenacity is a support skill with no badge cost.

Badge costs for every skill level are in the upgrade guide. The clip below is a general top five of UR heroes, not a Billy guide, but it is a quick way to see how the best URs compare.

Billy or William

Search results mix the two names, but they are different heroes. Billy is the Warlock Tank on this page. William is an SR Warrior damage dealer, and the tier list ranks him C.

If you want a Tank, Billy is the one. William is a damage dealer, so the two never compete for the same slot.

Gear and Awakening

Neither of Billy's two upgrade tracks changes his skills. For the shard types, open the awakening page, and for ordinary upgrades use the gear page. The table prices the weapon Puppet Frame and awakening and shows the weapon stats at the top. The awakening bonuses will appear when his window opens in Era of Revival.

How to Get Billy

Billy appears once the server is 83 days old and unlocks with 10 Billy Shards. That is 42 days after Ulfrid, and only Nicole comes later among the UR heroes. Five other UR Tanks unlock before him, namely Arthur, Shadow, Daskal, Ulfrid and Louis, so most accounts reach Billy with a front row already standing. Shard sources are on the heroes list. Billy has the lowest full-build power of the six UR Tanks at 980,246, which is 53,493 below Ulfrid, and he ranks number 6 of 6.

Rangers deal Warlocks 20 percent less damage, which suits Billy against a Ranger squad, while a Warrior squad counters him. Check the enemy faction before you send him in.

Best Team for Billy

Billy takes the front with a second Tank and covers the damage dealers behind him. These rows blend lineup advice with the faction bonus steps.

SquadHeroesGood for
Warlock squadUlfrid, Billy, Nicole, Annie, JesterThe full 20 percent faction bonus, with Nicole healing allies and raising Warlock ATK
Four Warlocks and ArthurArthur, Ulfrid, Billy, Annie, JesterA 15 percent bonus without waiting for Nicole
Warrior core with BillyArthur, Marlena, Daskal, Harper, BillyFour Warriors and one Warlock Tank for extra Energy DMG cover

The full Warlock squad is the late-game goal, because Nicole unlocks 14 days after Billy. Until she arrives, the four-Warlock row keeps the bonus high. The best team page holds more lineups, and the tier list grades each partner named here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Billy skill should I level first?

Level Fate's Thread first, then Truth and Lies, then Puppet. Fate's Thread recharges every 5 seconds and cuts the Energy DMG taken by the highest-ATK allies by up to 36%. Truth and Lies comes next because its best effects wait for later stars. Wooden Frame and the support skill go last.

How do I get Billy?

Billy unlocks once the server is 83 days old, with 10 Billy Shards. Only Nicole unlocks later among the UR heroes, so most accounts reach Billy with a Tank core already built. Five other UR Tanks unlock before him, which makes him a depth pick rather than an early priority.

Are Billy and William the same hero?

No. Billy is a UR Warlock Tank, and William is an SR Warrior damage dealer who is available from the start. Their names look alike, so searches mix them up. William has 524,421 power at full build against 980,246 for Billy, and the tier list rates William C.

Is Billy worth building?

Billy is worth it in a Warlock squad. Billy holds A on the tier list, which is below Ulfrid. His skills protect the allies with the highest ATK, so he suits a squad of Warlock damage dealers. In a Warrior build Arthur and Daskal do the same job earlier.

Does Billy have an exclusive weapon?

Yes, Puppet Frame, which grows from 30 weapon shards to star 50. It raises his HP, ATK and DEF and nothing else. Unlike the weapons of Louis or Ulfrid, it does not change any of his skills, so his shards go further into stars.
