Amhose vs Saffron

[talgore_2817623]

I currently have a Saint 5, 3 star saffron, and mortal, 0 star amhose.
Am thinking of using one of them to build a tank mainly for heroics and quests atm.
Which would I be better with, is Amhose better than Saffron, or just stick with Saff as she is alrdy saint 5.
I have a Valla who has 7 saintings(thanks heavans palace) which i could use to transfer onto Amhose so it wouldnt be a big deal to do that if Amhose is better than saffron overall.

Any advice before I spend a load of medals/cards would be helpful.

personly I like saffron better. I think both are about even though so its more personal taste and the luck of the saintings/stars

Stats for each look a bit like this.

Saffron

Basic HP 600

Command 70
Strength 70
Intelligence 70

She also come with a 20 resilience and a 20 block.

Ahmose Nekhbet

Basic HP 550

Command 72
Strength 72
Intelligence 50

His bonus stat is 30 break.

Well Ahmose is more of physical type tank, whereas Saffron tends to be more of an all-rounder.

lets look at it like this

Saffron saints Ahmose saints
1143 phy def 1120 skill attack
945 skill def 4300 hp
850 mag def 980 phy def
4650 hp 750 phy attack
5400 hp 2600 hp
560 skill attack 800 skill attack

The way saints are building this saffron would be better. If you want a great tank I would transfer valla to Ahmose and see how the saints look Whoever has the best defence and hp saints I would build up.
Also in tank building I would remove the saints you don't want as you build it, like the white and blue saints you don't want.

I have seen a saffron get no defence saints by angel 3 it had 5 skill attack 4 phy attack morales dodges and hp. This saffron could deal damage as a tank but lacked the HP and defence saints to last the long battles. This persons Ahmose had 4 hp, 4 phy def, 3 skill def, 1 magic def, block,2 resillance, so his Ahmose could stand up better in the drawn out fights.

Does saffron's skill increase the chance of block?

I've just always had much better luck with Saffron myself. She just seems to take hits much better.

Herpes index? I hear Valtrex is still struggling to defeat that boss...

This is just my option

Saffron
Is good in dodge, block and resilence so its useful in Quest boss and heroic realm.
Because those Quest boss and heroic realm troops has less break and dodge.
in pvp saffron being block so no skill attack and lost shield wall.

Ahmose
normal in Quest boss and heroic realm.
But its good for pvp because of more break so its always have greather rampart with 5% mdef boost.

in summary you need both :P
Saffron for Quest boss and heroic realm.
Ahmose for pvp

here is sample formation with ahmose for GW. you will kill more player in GW compare to other formation.

Adam, Maria, Ahmose
hero,Aphrodite, Free

in my opinion a well built saff is better than ahmose. two reasons for that to make me come to this conclusion:
ahmoses biggest cryptonite is magic and stuns. ahmoses skill also got nerfed a while back. so since then i think saff is better, especially in HR since most bosses are either magic or have magic minions. at the end you should pick the one with the highest defense stats and most HP, however some heroes seem to gain medals better than others and saffs cards for sancts cost only 500 each. so you should continue to develop both and only stop when you can say "ok this hero is awesome now" and then focus on that one.
