Morrison is a UR Aircraft damage dealer in Last War Survival who specializes in Physical Damage and reducing enemy Defense. His Armor-Piercing Shot attacks random enemies repeatedly, allowing him to weaken one or several targets for the rest of the Aircraft formation. This guide explains Morrison’s skills, upgrade priority, gear, positioning, team composition, and Season 5 Exclusive Weapon.
Morrison Hero Overview
Morrison, also known as The Reaper, is designed for a back-row damage role. He combines frequent Physical Damage with a Defense-reduction effect that can increase the damage dealt by other heroes attacking the same target.
- Rarity: Ultra Rare (UR)
- Vehicle Type: Aircraft
- Specialty: Damage Dealer
- Damage Type: Physical Damage
- Listed March Size: 350
- Main Role: Repeated Physical Damage and enemy Defense reduction
Morrison benefits from the statistics provided by the Aircraft Center. Upgrading this building improves the HP, Attack, Defense, and March Size of Aircraft heroes.
Morrison Reference Stats
| Stat | Reference Value |
|---|---|
| Attack | 21.9K |
| HP | 441.4K |
| Defense | 2.9K |
| March Size | 350 |
Important Note: These are reference values from the supplied hero information. Morrison’s actual statistics depend on his level, stars, skills, gear, Aircraft Center, research, Drone, decorations, Exclusive Weapon, and other account bonuses.
How to Unlock Morrison
Morrison’s availability depends on the age and progression of your warzone. He may first appear through a timed hero release, battle pass, hero offer, or related recruitment event before becoming available through additional shard and recruitment sources.
Before spending recruitment tickets or purchasing a hero pack:
- Check whether Morrison appears in the current recruitment pool.
- Read the reward list of the active hero event.
- Confirm whether the offer includes Morrison shards or only general items.
- Check whether later Ghost Ops or seasonal recruitment can provide his shards.
- Compare the cost with the investment still required for stars, skills, and gear.
Hero availability can differ between warzones, so the current in-game banner should be treated as the final reference.
Morrison’s Strengths and Weaknesses
Main Strengths
- Defense reduction: Armor-Piercing Shot can reduce the Defense of enemies hit repeatedly.
- High Physical Damage: All three standard skills contribute to his offensive role.
- Frequent auto attacks: Full-Auto Machine Gun has a one-second listed cooldown.
- Multi-hit Tactic skill: Armor-Piercing Shot begins with 10 attacks and can reach 20 through star effects.
- Aircraft synergy: Morrison benefits from Aircraft Center upgrades and full Aircraft formations.
- Strong Exclusive Weapon effects: His weapon adds current-HP damage and an Aircraft team bonus.
Main Weaknesses
- Random targeting: Armor-Piercing Shot may distribute its attacks across several enemies.
- Limited frontline durability: Morrison should normally remain protected in the back row.
- Defense reduction can be inconsistent: A target must be hit repeatedly to reach the maximum reduction.
- Requires substantial investment: Stars, Skill Medals, offensive gear, and an Exclusive Weapon are needed for his strongest results.
- No healing or direct protection: Morrison contributes damage and debuffs rather than squad recovery.
Morrison’s Skills Explained
Full-Auto Machine Gun
Full-Auto Machine Gun is Morrison’s standard auto attack. It uses a minigun to deal Physical Damage equal to 309.32% of Morrison’s Attack.
- Type: Auto Attack
- Cooldown: 1 second
- Damage Type: Physical Damage
- Main Purpose: Frequent single-target damage
The listed star effects increase its additional damage:
- First listed star effect: +30% additional damage.
- Second listed star effect: increases additional damage to 70%.
- Third listed star effect: increases additional damage to 120%.
- Fourth listed star effect: increases additional damage to 185%.
- Fifth listed star effect: increases additional damage to 270%.
Because the skill activates frequently, its damage accumulates throughout the battle. It becomes even more valuable after Morrison unlocks his Exclusive Weapon, which adds a Devastation Shell after every five auto attacks.
Full-Auto Machine Gun should normally be Morrison’s second Skill Medal priority after Armor-Piercing Shot.
Full Firepower
Full Firepower is Morrison’s passive skill. Its listed base effect increases his Physical Damage by 30% during battle.
- Type: Passive
- Cooldown: None
- Main Purpose: Increasing Morrison’s total Physical Damage
Each listed star effect adds another 3 percentage points to the bonus. With all five star effects, the listed bonus can reach 45%.
Full Firepower strengthens both Full-Auto Machine Gun and Armor-Piercing Shot. However, it does not create another attack or add a new debuff, so it is generally upgraded after the two active damage skills.
Do not leave the passive permanently underdeveloped. Once the other skills become expensive, lower-cost Full Firepower upgrades may provide efficient value across all of Morrison’s attacks.
Armor-Piercing Shot
Armor-Piercing Shot is Morrison’s main Tactic skill. It attacks random enemy units 10 times, with each hit dealing Physical Damage equal to 193.38% of Morrison’s Attack.
Each attack also reduces the Defense of the enemy it hits by 5%. The reduction can stack up to 25% on the same target and lasts for nine seconds.
- Type: Tactic Skill
- Cooldown: 10 seconds
- Damage Type: Physical Damage
- Main Purpose: Multi-hit damage and enemy Defense reduction
The listed star effects include:
- +30% additional damage.
- +5 attack count.
- Additional damage increased to 70%.
- Another +5 attack count.
- Additional damage increased to 120%.
At full star progression, Armor-Piercing Shot can perform 20 attacks instead of the base 10.
How the Defense Reduction Works
The Defense reduction is calculated separately for each enemy.
For example:
- If one enemy receives one hit, it receives one 5% Defense reduction stack.
- If the same enemy receives five or more hits, it can reach the 25% maximum.
- If the attacks are divided among several enemies, each target builds its own stack count.
This means Morrison does not automatically reduce the Defense of the entire enemy formation by 25%. Random targeting determines which enemies receive the largest debuff.
The effect can still help the full squad because other heroes can deal more damage to a target after its Defense has been reduced.
Players cannot manually select the targets or activation time during normal automated combat. Keeping Morrison alive and improving his cooldown performance gives him more opportunities to cast the skill.
Super Sensing
Super Sensing is Morrison’s Expertise effect. It provides the following listed bonuses:
- Morrison’s HP +20%.
- Morrison’s Attack +20%.
- Morrison’s Defense +20%.
- Skill cooldown rate +10%.
The Attack increase improves his Physical Damage, while HP and Defense help him survive area attacks and back-row targeting. The cooldown-rate bonus supports more frequent auto attacks and Tactic casts.
Super Sensing is not a standard Skill Medal upgrade. It uses separate Expertise progression and should not be listed as the fourth normal skill priority.
Morrison Skill Upgrade Priority
Morrison generally follows the standard Attacker priority:
- Armor-Piercing Shot
- Full-Auto Machine Gun
- Full Firepower
- Super Sensing through separate Expertise progression
| Priority | Skill | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Armor-Piercing Shot | Provides Morrison’s main burst damage, extra attack counts, and Defense reduction |
| 2 | Full-Auto Machine Gun | Deals frequent damage and later triggers Exclusive Weapon shells |
| 3 | Full Firepower | Increases all Physical Damage but does not create an additional attack |
| Separate | Super Sensing | Expertise effect rather than a normal Skill Medal upgrade |
A practical progression pattern is:
- Raise Armor-Piercing Shot to the next useful milestone.
- Keep Full-Auto Machine Gun approximately five levels behind.
- Keep Full Firepower another five levels behind when resources are limited.
- Use inexpensive passive upgrades when the next active-skill level becomes costly.
This is a flexible guideline rather than a mandatory ratio. Full Firepower can deserve additional levels when its next upgrade costs significantly fewer Skill Medals than Armor-Piercing Shot.
For broader planning across different hero roles, review the Last War hero skill upgrade priority guide.
Best Position for Morrison
Morrison should normally be placed in the back row. His main purpose is to remain alive and apply repeated damage and Defense reduction.
A standard Aircraft formation uses:
- Front row: Two durable Aircraft Tanks.
- Back row: Morrison, another damage dealer, and a third Attacker or Supporter.
Back-row placement gives Morrison time to:
- Use Full-Auto Machine Gun repeatedly.
- Cast Armor-Piercing Shot several times.
- Maintain Defense reduction on enemy targets.
- Trigger Devastation Shells after unlocking his Exclusive Weapon.
Morrison should only be placed in the front row as a temporary solution when your available frontline heroes are significantly weaker. His HP and Defense are not designed to replace a dedicated Tank.
Best Aircraft Team for Morrison
Morrison performs best in a developed Aircraft formation. A full Aircraft team allows every hero to benefit from Aircraft Center upgrades, troop-type research, formation bonuses, and Morrison’s level 20 Exclusive Weapon effect.
Standard Aircraft Formation
| Position | Suggested Heroes |
|---|---|
| Front Row | Carlie and Lucius |
| Back Row | DVA, Morrison, and Schuyler |
In this formation:
- Carlie and Lucius protect the back row.
- DVA provides major Aircraft damage.
- Morrison reduces enemy Defense and supplies repeated Physical Damage.
- Schuyler contributes additional damage and control.
Morrison’s Defense reduction can improve the damage dealt by teammates attacking the same weakened enemy. However, the random distribution of Armor-Piercing Shot means the maximum debuff may not always land on the target you prefer.
Transitional Morrison Formation
Players without a complete Aircraft team can place Morrison behind their two strongest frontline heroes. Add the strongest available damage dealer and Supporter until the full Aircraft formation is ready.
A transitional squad should include:
- Two durable frontline heroes.
- One primary damage dealer in addition to Morrison.
- A Supporter or controller that helps the back row survive.
- Enough troops to fill every hero’s March Size.
Do not replace a highly developed hero solely to complete the Aircraft bonus if the replacement has significantly lower stars, skills, and gear.
Morrison and Vehicle-Type Matchups
Aircraft formations generally have an advantage against Tank formations and face a disadvantage against Missile formations.
| Opponent Type | General Matchup |
|---|---|
| Tank | Aircraft formations generally have an advantage |
| Aircraft | Results depend more heavily on hero strength, gear, skills, and formation |
| Missile | Aircraft formations generally face a disadvantage |
The vehicle counter does not guarantee victory. A stronger enemy may overcome the disadvantage through higher troop tiers, better research, stronger Gear, larger March Size, or more advanced Exclusive Weapons.
Review the Last War troop stats guide to understand how troop tier, Morale, Attack, HP, Defense, and March Size affect combat performance.
Best Gear for Morrison
Morrison is a back-row Physical Damage dealer, so his first gear priorities should normally improve his offensive performance.
- Gun: Provides the most direct increase to Morrison’s Attack and damage.
- Data Chip: Supports offensive and critical performance.
- Radar: Helps Morrison survive Energy Damage and Tactic attacks.
- Armor: Adds durability against Physical Damage and general back-row pressure.
If Morrison is being defeated before casting Armor-Piercing Shot enough times, improve Radar or Armor earlier. Surviving for another Tactic cycle can provide more total value than a small increase to Attack.
A practical gear strategy is:
- Prioritize Morrison’s Gun if he is one of the main damage dealers.
- Complete useful level milestones rather than upgrading every item equally.
- Give the strongest defensive equipment to frontline heroes first.
- Compare Morrison’s gear needs with DVA and the other Aircraft carry.
- Avoid using Legendary Blueprints without confirming the complete promotion cost.
Use the Last War gear upgrade and promotion guide before spending large amounts of Upgrade Ore, Dielectric Ceramic, or Legendary Blueprints.
Morrison’s Exclusive Weapon
Morrison receives an Exclusive Weapon during Week 6 of Season 5. The listed activation requirements are:
- Morrison must reach 5 stars.
- You need 50 Morrison-specific Exclusive Weapon Shards.
The weapon strengthens his auto attack and Tactic skill with Devastation Shells that deal damage based on the enemy’s current HP.
| Weapon Level | Main Effect |
|---|---|
| Level 1 | Every five auto attacks fire a Devastation Shell at the enemy with the highest current HP |
| Level 10 | Armor-Piercing Shot performs 20 attacks and fires a stronger Devastation Shell after the Tactic skill |
| Level 20 | Aircraft Specialist increases Attack, Defense, and HP of all Aircraft heroes by 7.5% |
| Level 30 | Devastation Shells reduce the target’s Defense by 10% for five seconds |
Annihilation Shots at Level 1
After every five auto attacks, Morrison fires a Devastation Shell at the enemy with the highest current HP.
The shell deals damage equal to 3% of the target’s current HP. The effect ignores several forms of Defense and resistance, but the damage from an auto-attack shell cannot exceed 150% of Morrison’s Attack.
This effect is useful against high-HP frontline heroes because it scales from the target’s current Health rather than relying only on Morrison’s normal skill multiplier.
Devastation Barrage at Level 10
At level 10, Morrison’s upgraded Tactic attacks random enemies 20 times. Each hit continues to deal Physical Damage and reduce Defense.
After the Tactic skill finishes, Morrison fires a Devastation Shell at the enemy with the highest current HP.
This shell deals damage equal to 10% of the target’s current HP. The damage cannot exceed 450% of Morrison’s Attack.
The highest-current-HP target may be a frontline Tank, seasonal unit, or another high-Health enemy. This means the shell does not always target the opponent’s main damage dealer.
Aircraft Specialist at Level 20
Aircraft Specialist increases the following statistics for every Aircraft hero in Morrison’s formation:
- Attack +7.5%.
- Defense +7.5%.
- HP +7.5%.
This is one of the weapon’s most valuable milestones because it strengthens the full Aircraft formation rather than only Morrison.
The bonus provides less value in a mixed squad containing only one or two Aircraft heroes.
Explosive AP Rounds at Level 30
At level 30, every Devastation Shell also reduces the target’s Defense by 10% for five seconds.
This gives Morrison another source of Defense reduction in addition to Armor-Piercing Shot. The exact interaction between different debuffs should be checked in the current battle report and weapon description because stacking rules may change.
Is Morrison’s Exclusive Weapon Worth Upgrading?
Morrison’s Exclusive Weapon is valuable for Aircraft-focused accounts, especially when Morrison is already a permanent member of the main formation.
Prioritize it when:
- Morrison is already 5 stars.
- You use a full or nearly complete Aircraft squad.
- His normal skills and offensive gear are developed.
- You frequently fight high-HP frontline heroes.
- You can reach the level 20 Aircraft Specialist milestone.
Delay it when:
- Morrison is used only in a secondary formation.
- Your frontline Aircraft heroes remain underdeveloped.
- DVA or another primary carry needs a more important upgrade.
- You cannot reach a meaningful weapon milestone.
- Your main formation uses Tank or Missile heroes.
Level 20 is an important long-term target because Aircraft Specialist remains active throughout every battle and benefits the full team. Level 30 adds further Defense reduction, but it requires a much larger investment.
Important Note: Check the current Exclusive Weapon interface before spending shards. Release timing, skill values, damage caps, and upgrade requirements may change through future updates.
Is Morrison Worth Building?
Morrison is worth building for accounts committed to Aircraft progression. His role is particularly useful when the squad needs both strong Physical Damage and a way to reduce enemy Defense.
He is a good investment when:
- You are developing a dedicated Aircraft formation.
- You need a back-row Physical Damage dealer.
- You want Defense reduction that supports the rest of the squad.
- You can protect him with two durable frontline heroes.
- You plan to develop his Season 5 Exclusive Weapon.
- Your Aircraft Center and military research are already progressing.
He may deserve a lower priority when:
- Your main squad uses another vehicle type.
- Your frontline cannot keep back-row heroes alive.
- Your primary Aircraft carry remains underdeveloped.
- You do not have enough Skill Medals and gear for another damage dealer.
- You cannot reach Morrison’s important star and weapon milestones.
Morrison’s value is not limited to his personal damage. His Defense reduction can help DVA, Schuyler, and other heroes deal more damage to affected targets.
Common Morrison Mistakes
- Placing Morrison on the frontline: He should normally remain protected in the back row.
- Upgrading Full Firepower first: Armor-Piercing Shot and Full-Auto Machine Gun generally provide greater early value.
- Treating Super Sensing as a normal skill: It is an Expertise effect with separate progression.
- Assuming Armor-Piercing Shot targets one enemy: Its attacks are distributed randomly.
- Assuming every enemy receives 25% Defense reduction: Each target builds separate stacks based on the number of hits received.
- Trying to activate the Tactic manually: Normal battles use automated skill activation.
- Ignoring defensive gear: Morrison loses all offensive value after being defeated.
- Building Morrison without an Aircraft frontline: He needs durable heroes to create enough time for repeated skill cycles.
- Rushing the Exclusive Weapon: Complete important skills, gear, and squad development first.
- Expecting Power alone to determine results: Formation, troop stats, vehicle counters, and debuffs remain important.
Morrison and Account Progression
Building Morrison into a competitive Aircraft damage dealer requires Legendary Hero Shards, Skill Medals, offensive gear, Aircraft Center upgrades, military research, and Exclusive Weapon materials. His Defense-reduction role also becomes more valuable when paired with developed teammates capable of attacking the weakened targets.
