About This guide is for the Facebook platform. The mobile version varies, and I cannot speak to the extent of that variation. Please trust but verify all results here for the developers run patches and the like regularly. Also there are many things that I have been wrong about in the past so I try and update this with current understandings. Since most of this focuses on max stat testing every time new skins are released things can change. I am Danbutchcasting on server 13. I play in Legion. I also have an alt “the taco truck” on the higher servers aiding with the earlier chapters in this guide. This guide is to organize thoughts, help new players and to promote what is behind my name. I play games like Herowars and I play tabletop games like Dungeons and Dragons. I make 3d modular dungeons. Please like my page and support the making of this content. Please share this link with all your tabletop gamer friends https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ This guide is subjective so take it with a grain of salt. Feel free to experiment and go against the grain. I will provide as solid advice as I can, and I will present some opposing views from players I respect. At the end of the day play the characters you like. All heroes can get reworked at some point, so you never know who will be the best hero tomorrow. This guide is not a quick answer but rather a means to evaluate and help you choose what you want to do and how you want to make your teamwork. There is no best hero, combo nor team. This game is loaded with counters and match ups that’s what makes it interesting and great. That said some heroes are far more versatile than others that are more situational. This guide favors the versatile. Collaborations. I will welcome any assistance in making this guide, especially for heroes I do not have a lot of experience or material on. Preference will be for collaborations from players that have seriously leveled up their hero. I also will encourage a complete counter point to any point I make. I do see things online I like, and I try to site as many sources as I can do please enjoy.

Description from the developers Content modified to clarify the original translations

Main hero stats  Agility  Intelligence  Strength influences the damage dealt with attacks. Each point of main stat adds +1 damage from attacks and grants bonuses to additional stats. Heroes' roles determine their primary functions, the styles of characters in battle.

Hero’s Roles Tank — fights at the front line, redirects enemy attacks or attention toward themselves in order to protect other characters. Warrior — deals significant damage in melee fight. Marksman — shoots the enemies from range, dealing significant damage. Support — can be either melee or range damage dealer; supports the party with useful skills. Control — can be either melee or range damage dealer; can control enemies with different spells: silencing, stunning etc. Mage — deals damage from range using magic. Healer — heals either nearby or distant allies.

Skills Skills combinations (combos) mean more than anything else. Picking a good combo and going with it, seeing it through is key to success. Learn the heroes skills, derive your own synergies and go for it

Common skills Dodge Dodge only applies to physical attack so a hero like lars ignores and decimates dodge heroes with easy. The exception being Aurora, but it is not dodge that saves her, its her shield. So dodge should be great Vs physical attackers. Let’s put 4 dodgers vs 3 physical attackers at max and see what happens. Dodge is written off because magic negates it however K’arkh is very power heroes that had lots of support synergy builds that rely on him to kill. One way to beat him is to make him miss when he attacks this dodge has a use:

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ Shootout: Even with a limited pallete of dodge uses over all it is not very good. Top physical attackers vs. boosted dodge annoying heroes. Increased health would be better than dodge, even armor and/or magic defense.

The power level rankings alone of the physical attack does not tell the whole story. Kiera shines because she attacks the entire enemy team with her Ult. K’arkh randomly attacks multiple enemies. Why you see in battles Jhu out performing is because he is usually the last to die so over time he does great damage. Not short term like these dodge shoot outs are, typically over within 45 seconds.

Hero specific 1st skill is called the ultimate skill.  It can be used when the hero's Energy is full.  Referred to as: o Ultimate o Skill 1 o Proc.? o Triggers o Fires  It Causes a team boost for 9 seconds granted by the heroes Artifact 1 o This is referred to as  Surge  Boost  Bonus 2nd skill - unlocked when a hero is promoted to Green rank 3rd – unlocked when a hero is promoted to Blue rank and Page | 7 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: 4th – unlocked when a hero is promoted to Purple. Orange does not unlock any skills just more Items for leveling up. Red does not unlock any skills just more Items for leveling up.

https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/

Some or all of these skills usually have a percentage that they are affected by physical or magical attack thus good team buildings will feed attack bonuses to help power up skills

Team building Overview The real key to team building is to make a combo of 2 or more heroes that have complimentary skills and /or artifact 1 bonuses. Watch the videos on combos by the developers. In the beginning I think it is useful to make a top combo of 2 or three heroes and focus on the primarily. General advice is to have a combo, add a tank to protect your combo and add Jorgen to win the energy stealing side of things and add a supporting piece and you are ready to go. Primary combo or damage dealing (essential to have 1):  Lars / Krista  Krakh / Kia / (Faceless)  Elmir / Dorian  Orion / Helios /(Dorian)  2 of many damage dealers / Nebula in between them (see combat orders)  Ishmael / Jet  Faceless / any hero with a skill 1 you love (requires Manual skills not auto)  Match artifact 1 bonuses with skills that need that trait. (see artifact 1 analysis) Secondary combos or combos with your tank (optional)  Cleaver /Peppy (requires Manual skills not auto)  Luthor / Markus (requires Manual skills not auto) or Luthor / Martha  Any magic tank / Martha

As you get further in the game you gain access to more heroes so many will have better options. Focusing primarily on a combo will help you take this initial development further Manual vs auto. The Guild war and arena battles force auto mode. The results are precalculated. The campaign you can do manual combo tricks that auto may not allow. Keep that in mind. Celeste for example is much better manually controlled, so is faceless.

“pairing tricks” 

Early on use Ziri / Ishmael. Time it so when Ziri falls (shelter of the sand) Ishmael uses his ultimate skill so he can front line (by vampirism) while ziri heals underground.

Basic Team Construction This is a very detailed topic, so this guide is focusing on newer players that just want to get a good start. This is an attempt to have you focus on a few heroes and get the most out of them. This game is well constructed on the hero side with counters and line up challenges. There are exceptions to all these rules below but to get started I suggest: Page | 8 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Brought to you by:

https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ Teams should have in order of importance:  1 tank (only level up enough to survive, to protect) o Note Ishmael is a warrior, not a tank  1 combo / primary attack plan (most leveled up heroes) o Note you can run 1 tank and two combos.  1 Support for energy manipulation (Jorgen, conditionally nebula)  1 Specialist or combo extension hero* *This position changes based on enemy your facing. Cornelius, Rufus vs all magic attackers for example or just a hero that boosts your combo. This is suggesting that you rotate in heroes based on the enemy. This is where I put heroes like Rufus, Helios, Cornelius. This is where my report can help. How to boost your combo.

A Suggested Grand Arena Hero’s to build Pick a top 5 out of the 3 lines you plan on building for Grand Arena. The following break down is an example how to build combos. There are more and you can easily drop a line and add a new combo. The tanks / control and healers are the tops in my opinion the killers and combos can be tweaked. Just follow the thought process and see if you can find faults and improve. I hope you can.

Line 1  Jorgen is essential. Jorgen Steals energy, he also boosts magic attack for combo 1. Jorgen is also built like a tank, he survives. For PVP Jorgen is a must unless the enemy is fielding Satori.  Combo 1 is Lars / Krista. Krista marks the enemy and enhances Lars damage, Lars Damages the entire other team. When lars is fully charged the killing happens. This is the best combo I the game as of 4/2019  Combo 2 is Martha / Astroth. In this team Lars will die first so resurrection (Astroth) will likely be applied to him, Martha will help keep Astroth alive. Martha heals the furthest hero the most so your tank, Astroth is tougher and more likely to resurrect your killer / Lars.  Artifact 1 boosts as applied to the team: o Armor – Covers Lars weakness o Magic Penetration – Boosts your killer and energy drainer o Magic Attack – Boosts your killer and energy drainer o Magic Attack – Boosts your killer and energy drainer o Armor – Covers Lars weakness

Line 2  Combo 1 is Helios / Orion. Helios has high magic attack and low magic penetration, Orion charges fast, ultimate’s fast and grants magic penetration very often through artifact 1. Orion is a great campaign hero.  Jhu is essential. The best survival hero in the game. He can fit in any team, even one that does not boost him. Jhu is a great campaign hero.  Dorian, Grants vampirism to hero’s up to 2 spaces away so everyone but the tank in this example. This makes Orion / Helios a much better combo with more survivability. Dorian is a great campaign hero.  Artifact 1 boosts as applied to the team: o Armor – Covers the combo’s weakness o Physical attack – Helps Jhu and Ziri o Magic Penetration – Boosts your killers in Orion and Helios. Boost Dorians main attack o Critical – Boosts Jhu and Ziri o Armor – Covers the combo’s weakness

Line 3  Cleaver – if you do not have him use Galahad. A strong tank is needed with K’arkh so close to the front. You lose this tank you will lose your killer. K’arkh works well with Astro Martha just like line 1 describes protecting Lars.  Combo 1 is K’arkh / Kia. K’arkh does a lot of damage to enemies in the air at any time, he lifts them when he ultimate’s and Kia can lift the whole enemy team when he ultimate’s setting up a secondary ultimate for K’arkh . K’arkh will do most of the killing.  Nebula boosts adjacent heroes attacks.  Cornelius boosts magic defense, keeps K’arkh alive and with any luck a devastating enemy skill will get “memory loss “(reduce a skill level) thus reducing its potency.  Artifact 1 boosts as applied to the team: o Armor – Covers the combo’s weakness o Physical attack – Helps Jhu and Ziri o Magic Penetration – Boosts your killers in Orion and Helios. Boost Dorians main attack o Critical – Boosts Jhu and Ziri o Armor – Covers the combo’s weakness Alternate lines can be built around:  Elmir / Dorian  Jhu / Nebula  Ishmael / Jet  Cleaver /Peppy  Luthor / Markus (requires Manual skills not auto)  Luthor/Martha (out performs Luthor Markus) Also just some other powerful heroes without a well veted “combo”:  Astrid and Lucus  Qing Mao  Satori Heroes that are better manually controlled like in the campaign. Note the Guild war and arena are forced auto.  Faceless  Celeste  Astaroth  Markus

Leveling up

Do not get hung up on stars. I wanted Kiera strongest and I am getting soul stones slowly in campaign but by giving her skins stone and glyphs she is outperforming a much stronger Ginger. Internals and team synergy mean more than Stars, rating and level (depending on skills).

Here a 2 star kiera owns a 4 star kiera that is 8 levels stronger, Why? 2 reasons, 1 is I likely invested more skins, artifacts, Sparks in the 2 star and 2 Galahad offers a physical attack surge with his artifact 1, no on on enemy team helps kiera like that

Decision tree – lets pick 5 and go

This chart shows you where all the heroes first are available with-in reason. Green = Easiest to get, you mine them early on in the campaign or buy them in a shop you can regularly get 5 a day without sacrificing anything other than relatively common Items. Yellow are heroes that you get at the expense of something more important for internals like artifacts, soul stones or more valuable items. Yellow also includes heroes you get in later levels of the campaign almost guaranteeing a start over to have them in your top line up, Orange heroes straight up will cost you money and in cleavers case money and luck. Red heroes have yet to find a home. You will need a game update before you can get them, my guess is eventually in the soul shop or in the heroic bundle. So why pick 5 and go? To be strong you need to dump all resources in 5 and more important that stars alone are artifacts, Glyphs, Sparks and skins. Don’t sacrifice skin stones for your top 5 to get an 8 th hero to 6 stars. Pick 5 and stick to the. Realize every swap out or trade is a major setback so if we make a Decision tree in the order we come across the heroes you can Identify who you want to focus on early on and who you want to squeak by with until you have access to the hero you want. Example Tree 1: This is a step through of inner dialog which will give insight into how to plan. The dialog here may show you how progression may unfold and how you can easily switch heroes too often. In the second example tree we will do it more efficiently by understanding how and when heroes are accessible and what the tradeoffs are. This should help you plan what to do now to get to where you want to be down the road. The key would be to create a few trees until you like the end results…. Step 1

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ This guide will deep dive into each hero later. All heros can be good but this is a shot from the hip here. Please agree and disagree with the following. It is to show a process so you can focus on 5 and if all 5 are not available yet you start a plan to develop 1 or 2 or 3 higher than the rest knowing they will be replaced. If you draw you who goes when you will know who to develop now and who to stop developing when. Close your eyes and imagine a year from know who would be in your top 5? Actually, look at the entire line up of heroes. The answer is probably is none of the starting heroes are in your vision and that is ok. Don’t have a vision yet? Let’s step through the first example tree and create a vision. Someone might say “they reworked Galahad and Astaroth and they are so much better now”. It is true. Thea is my least favorite healer in the game but serviceable in the beginning and a healer is good. Artemis is pure damage, armor penetration and Critical. Very little health and health fuels her attack so she is the biggest “glass cannon” (serious damage but very fragile). Phobos is an energy drainer, a poor man’s Jorgen. He also stalls the enemy granting the rest of your team time. Arachne is actually orange so that means I have to give up a lot to get her soul stones. I will not take her unless I want her at the top in a year. Hmmm I look on my server and on others an no one in the arena at the top is using her 9step 2 explains how to check). Arachne is costly and not used at the top so for now I will start with:  Galahad (Can be your tank still in a year)  Astaroth (Can be your tank still in a year)  Phobos (The energy draining and stalling the enemy is cool for now)  Thea (I like other healers better, so I’ll do minimal in her)  Artemis (I like other Marksmen better, so I’ll do minimal in her) “but Dan, 2 tanks? “ Yes for now. You will go to 1 eventually but a second tank for Grand arena is good. As your tree is made your shed heroes will be your second and third grand arena lines so have fun, make a few trees and see where you go. Step 2 Organize what you have so far like this: Current top 5  Galahad (Can be your tank still in a year)  Astaroth (Can be your tank still in a year)  Phobos (The energy draining and stalling the enemy is cool for now)  Thea (I like other healers better, so I’ll do minimal in her)  Artemis (I like other Marksmen better, so I’ll do minimal in her) In GA second / Third Lines/  Not touching:  Arachne Newly Available Heroes:

Ill lump a few of these together. Ginger or Mojo? Ginger is a AOE glass Cannon, a lot like Artemis but reworked and more popular except not seen at the top on my server Page | 14 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ (look of the rankings top 50 teams) Go to Rankings, Select Arena and hover over the ranking number, you will see the teams, you can see the 50 best.

Look through these rankings, Note the most popular and Note the ones absent. If they are old heroes and absent they probably are not great long term for Player vs player. They may help in outland or in the campaign but not great PVP. So you see many Jorgen’s and Many nebulas (most likely). Do you go with the flow or do you say “hey how do I ill these common heroes?” we will get into it but for now lets just treat this like a test run to see where we go. So right now, Galahad is killing it for me early on so I made him strongest and I see Kiera in the top 50 so I want to go primarily physical attack. Galahad boosts physical attack for the team with his artifact 1 so I did invest in Artemis, I do not think Ginger is much better so Ill pass. Mojo is super cool but not fitting in my plans. Aurora as a tank seems counterproductive to start over. I eventually need a third tank for Grand arena so ill decide later. Fox I am not seeing a place for another glass cannon, sound like a recipe for disaster. Thea can only keep 1 alive if any at all. Heidi…. My God look at those eyes, I am mesmerized…… Must take Heidi. Slap, Snap out of it. If you saw her in your top 50 great for you, Congratulate that player. Heidi might be more effective with a health skin down the road so trade glass cannons if you want but do not carry more than 1….. Step 3 Organize what you have so far like this: Current top 5  Galahad  Phobos  Thea  Artemis  Kiera

In GA second / Third Lines/  Astaroth Not touching:  Arachne  Mojo

   

Ginger Aurora Fox Heidi

Newly available Heroes:

These are all green so lets go down the list:  Daredevil, I read her skill 4 and almost died laughing, I can’t build around planning on dying for a 3 second bonus.

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/  Cornelius. Good skills and at max he knocks down a random enemies Ultimate skill, that would hand tie lars… seems great but situational  Faceless. A magic glass cannon but so cool. I love the copy ultimate. He increases team magic defense and he degrades random physical attacks he seems fun. I want him as a support for my magic team. But pass for now  Orion. He is like a magic Kiera. He will own the campaign and boss battles. Jorgen will be used to slow down his insane charging of energy. Its corn, faceless or Orion to put in over Phobos. I will miss the energy drain but now my Player Vs Player is secondary to my campaign. Ill take the rust bucket  Kia Not a primary magic killer and does not synergize with this team. Works with K’arkh but I already invested so much in Kiera. I think the K’arkh Kia combo will be a pass for now  Dante. His speed up sounds great, why does no one use him? I’ll pass for now  Chabba I’ll throw in the bucket with Aurora to make a decision on later.  Dark Star… ok I want this hero’s I’ll switch from artemins. She looks cool and she turns the enemy on itself. Bye Bye Artemis  Judge. Seems like a magic support, I’ll hold off for energy manipulation later

Step 4 Organize what you have so far like this: Current top 5  Galahad  Thea  Kiera  Orion  Dark Star In GA second / Third Lines/  Astaroth

Newly available Heroes:

   

Ishmael. He is a loaded with skills killing machine, low health but vampirism helps him. Maybe I do not need a marksmen. Rufus. A magic shield…. All my heroes have low magic defense, maybe I need a magic shield like Rufus. I bet her woks great with Faceless skill 4. I’m sick of being killed by that lars guy… maybe Ill take Rufus instead. Markus. A tank that heals is cool but the developers show him with Luthor. Why is there no Marcus Luthor in the top 50 in arena? Lian. This is a stall hero. Kiera attacks all enemies meaning I can not take advantage of the charmed effects Ill pass. I looking to be offensive and not defensive.

Newly available Heroes:

These are the start of yellow heroes so wow, these decisions are going to get costly. In outland the resources are limited so I should only pick one. I can tell already these 4 are all good or at least better than the green groupings. Outland Shop is at the expense of leveling skins, can only do 1 at a time  Jorgen. He is the most popular hero in arena. He seems automatic in Player vs Player. He focus damage on the last enemy, he steals energy he seems great. My guild tells me only Satori really kills him easy. He is a tank so in the back rank I am protected a little from that Jhu Character that has been killing my back rank. I am missting the energy. I am going to take him for player vs player. I will put him in as a 6 th In my top 5. Im cheating I know but he seems so necessary.  Qing Mao. Great boss killer but I have armor pen in Kiera so Ill pass.  Elmir is a great damage dealer like all I have, all are weak vs magic attack. Ill pass for now. A popular combo with Dorian so If I was going to do him maybe I should have kept leveling Up Phobos until I started on Jorgen?  Luthor. Do I need another tank? I have 3 started now. Also I’m not seeing the developer combo from the video Markus and Luthor in the top 50 in arena so I’ll hold off. Rufus is helping vs magic attack but Gally helps so much more so Ill put my old tank back in and take Jorgen. Ill battle magic attacker’s via energy draining from Jorgen.

Newly available Heroes:

These are the yellow so these are some serious decisions Elemental Tournament shop should be 1 at a time. It is at the expense of leveling artifacts and skins  K’arkh is very popular. He plays like Kiera but self-heals and I invested so much in Kiera… He works well is astaroth and faceless…. Do I want to start over building? He seems like fun.  Nebula is a great skills booster. So popular. Let me try boosting Kiera and the little bit of healing might really help my kiera. Guild War Shop should be 1 at a time. It is at the expense of silver champion skins, leveling Totem and Titan potions  Jhu is the best survivalist in the game, fits in almost everywhere, great in campaign and at killing bosses and he makes all other marksmen seam inadequate, He works well with nebula too. Sold. Oh man I keep starting over…..  Ziri. The most health in a tank but like Luther there are periods of time where the second position is exposed, and I love my and I think I’m pulling Ishmael for Jhu so Ill pass. Plus, I have too many tanks. If I can’t get past deciding on a tank than Ill never level my killers Chapter 9 This is at the expense of starting over developing a top 5  Peppy. The developers showed me a video on him combo-ing with Cleaver and he is good vs magic attack teams, but I do not have cleaver. Ill hold off. If I get cleaver in time to be my third tank Ill circle back

Newly available

Chapter 11 Nordland This is at the expense of starting over developing a top 5  Lars. Wow. This is what we all wanted Heidi to be. Damage to the entire enemy team in a couple ways, packs a stun and brings his own penetrations. Same dumb blank stare eyes too. Lars is in so many top teams. Infact all top magic attack teams are lars. Why not start over. I passed on k’arkh over Kiera but maybe it is time to focus on the hero that kills my Kiera.  Krista. Naturally I must take her with lars, She just makes him better and she is a great stall hero, she can substitute as a temporary tank at high levels.  Helios, this guy is a wicked mage that just needs armor pen which lars can provide, so can Orion. He is a must take vs critical attack heroes and a wicked counter to Jet. So many mages now. Since Im running with the twins now I’ll pass on Helios but he would work well with them. Chapter 14 This is at the expense of starting over developing a top 5  Celeste, Yes finally a better healer. Great in manual mode and helping lowest health hero. Cool at slowing down enemies healing. And 2 mini surges 4.5 second surges instead of 1 9 second surge. Interesting indeed.  Astrid and Lucas. A great Marksman and a cool Wall of cat for team protection but I have Jhu, artemins and Darkstar. This might be too many marksmen. Plus I got roped into starting over with the twins….. Soul Shop This is at the expense of many great Items in many shops  Jet. This guy grants team critical. Keep him away from Helios but if unchecked what a great booster for physical attack teams. Ill pass because I am building the twins. If I kept Ishmael Jet would be a no brainer.

There are 16 heroes started so I have 3 Grand arena lines. A review of the hardest to get heroes

Soul Chest heroes. You can do these once a month with the daily reward at the expense of doing any other hero. These will most likely cost you buying some heroic bundles. I should only pick 1 unless I want to spend a fortune.  Satori. He slowly consumes intelligence, wow a main stat reducer. Seems like a good bet for a future power house. Can’t kill the twins easily. Destroys k’arkh, Orion, Jorgen. Anything that remains in play it seems. nice  Dorian. A really great healer for very aggressive attackers, even grants vampirism after he is dead.  Maya, if you can keep her protected from physical attack she can heal your whole team and do damage  Lilith. She is a bad ass looking tank, seems more defensive and not seen in the top 50 in arena, she must not do well at max Heroic Chest Only Hero. This will likely cost you any emeralds. Wait for the reduced cost for the heroic chest. It happens a couple times a year.  Cleaver. He used to be the clear best tank but with Galahad and Astaroth getting reworked he has some competition. He is great for the twins (lars Kritsa) because they can use his armor boost. He feeds krista, when she is not in ice she deals serious damage to nearest enemy. He is very survivable. Combos well with Peppy too. Who knows how you can ever get heroes. This will cost you your soul with a down payment of your life savings and a time machine.  Martha, best healer in the game. Was only available during her event. They added her to the heroic chest but that is not a great level up plan. Luckily, she helps even with less stars. Wait for newer heros and she will get worked in. Page | 20 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Example Tree 2 Lets do the exercise smarter this time. This is just an example of initial decision making. This is not “the best: and you should make your own. We read the insane example tree 1. We now realize there are tradeoffs to getting certain heroes so I will draw out two lines I want and the 3 rd will be made from the stepping-stone heroes. Gold circled will be my number 1line in GA and silver circled will be my number 2. Number 3 will be the additional starting heroes I needed and Ill pass on the rest to be efficient. I choose no healers because Martha is soo great. I’ll do Thea as a 6 th hero to rotate in unless I get Celeste but really, I want Martha so Ill see how far I can wait to get her. The healer oasis is real so Thea until another option it is. I am passing on all orange because I do not want to sink in that kind of money.

This is how your first line could progress as the heroes become available: Progression1: Progression 2 Progression 3  Galahad  Galahad  Jorgen  Astaroth  Astaroth  Astaroth  Thea  Thea  Thea  Artemis  Corn  Ishmael  Phobos  Ishmael  Nebula

Progression 4  Jorgen  Astaroth  Thea  Lars  Krista

This is much more efficient and maybe you can optimize progressions even further, take the starting heroes until you unlock the twins and start over from there….. Just make a plan and follow it through. Do as I say, not as I do….

Maxed Stats breakdowns The stats come from Herowars.info. The newer skins were interpolated. I ade the excel for sorting and ranking

Power Rating / Rankings Your collection is X’ed. The rest of this report will filter to just your top 20. Combat Order is how they line up front to back s more detailed then front, middle back, it is true order Default Power Ranking These rankings are maxed out Hero war Power level with default skin only Max Skin Power Ranking These rankings are maxed out Hero war Power level with all skins maxed Note these power rankings are not a good reflection on who is better just shows the numbers mean little. Although the top 5 seem like they might be a great team (4 out of 5 I would use) the next 5 seem terrible (2 out of 5 I would use). The bottom 5 are all very good. Orion for example is weak but he attacks so much faster than all others. Pair hi with Dorian and watch the fireworks. The heroes that are not bolded are ones I would pass on for Arena, Grand Arena, and GW. Outland is another story. Ginger or daredevil is needed there. Before I filter Notable heroes you passed on (note I have many):  Jhu (arguably the best Physical attacker Vs magic teams)  Elmir (arguably the best Physical attacker Vs Physical teams)  Nebula (bridges a physical attacker in a magic team)  Krakh (arguably the hardest hitting physical attacker, weak on magic defense)

Another disclaimer. I max out at say 20th on my server. I can be wrong but if this helps you, I am happy to help.

The surges are the 9 second boosts 1 hero provides the whole team when skill 1 goes off. This chart shows who provides what and it shows who is most dependent on surges to boost their skills. So Rufus’s skills 1-4 all the %’s that rely on magic attack add up to 650% so use his skills after a magic attack boost is up for a major increase in his skills. Heroes like Ishmael and Ziri have skills independent of attack bonuses

If you want to do a write-up(s) please let me know, especially if you use a hero regularly. Look at the entry on Aurora, this is what eventually I want for all the heroes.

Arachne Chart

Hot take She is given out early game and she is a better damage dealer than all starting heroes so many dump resources in her only later to not use her in favor of a hero whose soul stones you can get. I think she is a trap hero. Good but not good enough to end game be a top hero and she can only help early on so pass on her Main hero stat: Agility Roles: Warrior, Control There’s no trace of humanity left in her: she's a perfect assassin now. Arachne's hypnotic gaze freezes her prey, and her claws tear the unfortunate victim apart.

Skills: Demolition Robot Summons a monster that charges at the first enemy it sees, exploding and stunning enemies for 2 seconds. Teleport Jumps to the target with the lowest health, attacks it with claws, and jumps back. Underground Strike Strikes the nearest rival, damaging and stunning them and the enemies around them for 3 seconds. (Stun chance lowered if the target's level is above 80.) Neurotoxin Any damage received from Arachne, poisons the enemy for 3 seconds.

Artemis

You star the game with this marksman and she does good damage but I would not invent much in a hero like her that long term the low health will be a major liability, especially vs magic. Low level Lars will eat Artemins for Lunch first ultimate. Her armor penetrations and Crits means she can help in Outland and maybe vs some bosses but honestly just wait until you can get Jhu. He fills her role, is just better all-around and he can survive self sufficient.

Main hero stat: Agility Role: Marksman The huntress fades into a shadow in the night. Reaching the sorceress, she kills her immediately. Remember, witch, death has a name, and that name is Artemis! Skills: Deadly Shower Artemis launches a barrage of shots, striking enemies with a rain of arrows. Smart Arrow Fires and arrow at the nearest target that deals damage and bounces to random enemies several times. True Light Creates a flash of light that deals damage to all enemies caught in it and blinds them for 3 seconds. (Blind chance lowered if the target's level is above 80.) Punishing Arrows Passive skill. With each attack Artemis deals additional damage depending on her remaining health.

His only goal is to burn this world to ashes. Skills: Flame Veil AOE – 5 physical damage shield Devastation Burns 38% energy from Furthest Enemy Demons’ Allegiance Redirects 48% Physical damage from lowest health ally to Astaroth.

Aurora Chart

Pros   

She can survive vs the Twins (Lars Kirista) and even deal damage back (rainbow Halo) Crystal of Selias and piercing light can damage multiple targets High Health

Cons   

Artifact 1 bonus of dodge this is not a help vs magic like you want out of the rainbow halo hero Magic penetration is nice, but she is hitting tanks usually, so I think it is wasted Armor is pretty low, depends on dodge Vs physical attack

Stats Main hero stat: Strength Role: Tank

Skills: Crystal of Selias (Level 130) A light flash strikes at the center of the enemy team and deals damage to all enemies around the point of impact. Damage: 20549 (50% Magic attack + level*40) Use with Lar. Lars pushes enemies close together; this would damage whole enemy team. Crystalline Onslaught (Level 130) Stuns and damages a nearby target. (Stun chance lowered if the target's level is above 80.) Damage: 15529 (40% Magic attack + level*25) Piercing Light (Level 110) Casts a spark of light which deals damage to all rivals in its way. Damage: 16229 (40% Magic attack + level*35+100) Page | 38 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Rainbow Halo (Level 90) Passive skill. The shield partially absorbs magic damage. After absorbing a certain amount of damage, the shield explodes, damaging nearby enemies. The Shield Absorbs 85 % (level * 0.5 +40) of magic attack

Example battle Vs the magic attack (so ignoring the dodge boost artifact 1) I replaced Krista with Aurora, she works well with Lars Vs the all magic attack. Krista works better stalling a physical attacking front Krista’s stalling is better than dodge but Aurora is the best magic tank. You can see by the victory with less damage dealt that her shield works wonders. The team construction mean both sides resurrected lars so the shields impact was proven.

Aurora helps counter satori which is really hard to beat a fully supported satori:

Story As a child Aurora chose to follow the Light. She left her house and went a long way to finally receive the title of Paladin of Riversar, thus becoming a protector and a lantern for her people.

Daredevil

Hot take: sell all her soul stones, least health and worst 4 th skill in the game. Main hero stat: Agility Role: Marksman What is life? Life is an endless war. How to become happy in life? Start enjoying this war obviously. Daredevil doesn’t care about her lost arm as the new one, made of steel, is much, much cooler. She plays it really close to the edge each and every day and she knows the real taste of life! Skills: Big Badda Boom! Throws a bomb at the center of the enemy team, damaging all enemies in the blast radius. Discharge! Attacks the nearest target with electricity, damaging it and lowering its attack speed and movement speed.

Since that, the forever-young mage has been the amulet's master. But who knows for how long? Skills: Fountain of Blood Casts a blood mark on the nearest rival for 7 seconds. Allies recover health whenever they attack a marked enemy. Ancestors' Amulet Dorian sacrifices 20% of his current health and heals an ally with lowest health.

Fox

Main hero stat: Agility Role: Marksman Nobody has ever seen an expression of anger or doubt on this cute face.

Story Knowing no fear or doubt, sturdy as Kharunian steel, Galahad moves only forward. His confidence in himself and his allies has kept the great warrior strong for many years.

Ginger

Ginger is a good marksman and can really help in Outland. Her low health is a major concern. Even with Dorian granting vampirism to her she still dies easy. In outland eventually the spider boss kills her very quickly. I would take Jhu, Kiera, Astrid and Lucus over Ginger. So Early campaign I would collect Kiera stones over Ginger stones. Main hero stat: Agility Role: Marksman Duke’s daughter Ginger Hayes isn’t fond of noble evenings and quiet gossips. She is very into science and modern technology, using its powers to protect the innocent from offsprings of darkness. The best helper here is her own creation - the chain-gun “Noble”. Skills: Lead Storm Quickly fires 7 buckshot rounds from the pistol, damaging all enemies. Penetrating Shot Fires a missile that penetrates the enemy and hits the enemy directly behind them. Suppressive Fire Shoots in the air, damaging the whole enemy team with buckshot. Ranging Shot Ginger's pistol becomes hotter with every shot. Each consecutive shot gains additional physical damage. If Ginger gains the control effect or her current target dies, the pistol immediately cools down.

Heidi

I like Kiera over Ginger for AOE marksman also do not put to much stock on Stars until you maxed out everything else. No need to hit absolute star before level 130, before all glyphs and skins maxed… you have so much time before other things are maxed, do not obsess over stars

Stats Main hero stat: Intelligence Role: Marksman

Skills: Deathflower Summons a huge mushroom at the center of the enemy team; it spreads toxic spores, poisoning all enemies in the effective range. Toxic Spit Shoots the nearest enemy with a dart, poisoning them. Snake Charmer Throws a snake at the rival with the lowest health which bites the rival dealing pure damage. Spy Camo Page | 50 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Brought to you by:

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ If Heidi isn't damaged for a few seconds, he receives camouflage that gradually increases his chance of dodging an enemy's attack. Can't dodge control effects. Becomes fully visible after being damaged.

Fluff(story) Enchanted by Heidi's looks? You're dead. You’ve kept your head on a swivel, slept with both eyes open? No use! An experienced ranger tracks their prey with ease, and the meeting won't be pretty!

Usage Heidi is very position sensitive and can apparently “dodge: magic attacks although they count as misses:

I can only gather that these “miss’s “ are attributed to her fourth skill spy camo and that is why He/she does so much better in the middle. That skill is negated if she is hit too often. Keeping her alive means longer to deal Pure damage to opponents which can be no joke.

Jet is a hero that you only get after you have a bunch of heroes at 6 star so you get him late and at the expense of purple and gold items from the soul shop so the price is high. Only use him in primarily physical attack teams. Only use him if you want to attack fast, hit hard, vampire and end battles quickly, anything drawn out he will die and your team will fold. Example team Galahad, Ish, Jhu, Jorgen, Jet. “Jet is not really hard to get once you start to advance. If you do your thing right, he's actually easy to star-up(*). But in the end, there are far better support heros. The most obvious combination is with Ish, Jet basically grants almost the same bonuses (speed, attack and crits) so Ish gets twice the boost. Another good combination might be to make a mixed team, have a couple mages, and Jet with Astrid. Since her energy gain is fixed, it depends strictly on how fast she hits (to gain energy), so getting Jet's boost to speed damage (and crits) would benefit her. Anyways, he ends up being limited. His boost is very specific, and affects only one hero, while others like Dorian or Nebula give much more versatility. Also, Helios (as a counter) is very popular, and Jet's crit boost to your whole team might potentially destroy you before you get any benefit.” – FB chat

Jhu

Best Physical attacker vs Magic and this is because of his self-healing skills, targeting the rear and his magic defense skin helps to a point avoid magic penetration damage dealers:

“Don't count on the magic defense skin vs Heroes with more magic penetration than Jhu can get in magic defense"! The skin offers some damage reduction against skills from Krista or Jorgen, but compared to the really strong magic damage dealers like satori or Lars, the reduction is not enough to overcome. Every hero with a "Manuscript of the void" 2nd artifact and a magic pen glyph has more magic penetration than Jhu with max skin” – Dennis Herr

Other strong physical attackers that hit harder die easier vs magic attack. Nebula Jhu is a combo. At Max the Max lars Krista will kill a max nebula early in a match but she helps if she can be a little stronger then the twins.

Jorgen

Overview Jorgen’s skills are mostly about your team collecting energy and the enemy not collecting energy. This is good vs teams with devasting ultimate skill attacks like Lars or Karkh. These are also good for slowing down Orion who if unchecked goes of seemingly every 12 seconds…. Leper helps your team drop the rear rank hero by redirecting all attacks there thus it is important to choose your back rank hero carefully. And Jorgen himself steals enemy energy. Most bosses are immune to Jorgen so really he mostly is a player vs player champion. But also a tank in his own right for fancy mage teams. Jorgen was a “must have” until Satori came along.

Skills Torment of Powerlessness Level: 130 Jorgen summons a skull to the enemy’s front line which deals magic damage to nearby heroes. Affected enemies can not gain energy for 9 seconds. Damage 36159 (60% Magic attack +13000) Cycle of energies Level 130 Protects an ally with a magic shield. The ally will gain energy at doubled rate until the shield is destroyed. The shield can absorb 27983 (70% magic attack +16250) damage of any type. Leper Level: 110 Jorgen curses everyone on the enemy team, making the furthest enemy the target of the curse. Physical damage taken by heroes on the enemy team will be redirected to the target of the curse for 10 seconds. This skill redirects all physical damage to enemies’ level 130 and lower. Only a part of the damage is redirected to higher level enemies.

Markus

Main hero stat: Intelligence Roles: Healer, Support A healer of the Order who miraculously survived a demonic raid on his monastery. A divine power, granted from above, helped him defeat his enemies and cure his mortally wounded allies. Ever since Markus has been travelling the world, granting people life. Skills: Holy Shield Markus casts a shield on the ally with the lowest health; the shield bocks any damage for 5 seconds and heals the ally. Righteous Light Markus launches a wave of light forward, healing allies and dealing damage to enemies. Compassion Heals the ally with the lowest health. Ascension After dying Markus temporarily becomes a ghost and can still use all available skills. Enemies can't target the ghost.

Chatter from the unofficial groups “Markus is an interesting character to use in second or first position. He is the best for tanking in chapter 11, 12 and 13 whenever "Lady Minstrel" shows up. Because when she turns him around, he will heal the whole team with his second skill and not doing much damage. If you have the gems or the patience to level up his Barbarian skin providing armor he will have one of the highest armor stats there is (36K fully maxed). However, all in all he is a B-Hero who is nice to have but dispensable.”.

Campaign Chapters 1- 4 The tutorial in game walks you though the basics. You probably have not sought out this guide until at the earliest chapter 5. Do your daily quests as much as you can early on and you will level up just fine. Your team is probably this or close to it:

     

There is no best team at this point Galahad was reworked since my first account run through the early chapters. He did good then but reworked he is a beast now. Astaroth is all about his shield. Run him manual, time It for the beginning of wave 2 and the beginning of wave 3 Phobos is slow to charge but kills a back ranker. Artemins is decent support damage dealer. Thea is a good healer

Looking ahead Thea and the tanks will help for the tower mode which is your next step so focus on them. Kiera is a great damage dealer so get her soul stones on the way. The heroes whose skills damage multiple enemies are really key to focus on. I am targeting Kiera to be different than last account, but this can be Gally, Karkh, Lars, Orion…. If you are gifted another hero early on and want to rock them by all means do it but I will try Kiera to begin with and see what magic damage dealers I can get and try and shift to magic at some point just to be different than my primary account which is 75% physical. In grand arena you need 3 tanks so having Galahad and Ashtaroth available is not a bad move. Eventually you want to run with just 1 tank per conventional wisdom but replaying with Galahad being reissued since I first played the early chapters I see the case for 2 tanks. Galahad is also a physical attack booster and he occasionally runs in front of Astaroth sharing the burden of taking damage. Out of the gate there is synergy in the skills here. I started collecting Kiera soul stones and Heidi stones. Kiera is a solid damage dealing hero. Heidi makes me laugh and surprisingly helps in outland at least early on. The game gives you more physical attack heroes in the beginning it seems, but a case can be made for Phobos, Mojo, healers and Astaroth as tank. Gally will help and get helped by physical attackers, Astaroth grants armor with his surge and gets skills boosted by magic attack boosts.

Chapter 5 Cadang Thicket

5-1

I’m not a huge celeste fan but the game gifted me with her. This build keeps Kiera alive to do the killing and Galahad is a beast early on. There is a rhythm with Astaroth and Celeste that really helps, in the first way just charge both, do not use the skill, in second wave pop the shield from Astaroth and switch to healing with Celeste, set up the third wave for the same thing so like a waffle iron flip celeste to dark mode and charge her by the end of wave 2. The more I use celeste the more I like her. My other account and max simulations tells me that Martha and Dorian are better healers but the level of control with Celeste for the Campaign I am finding really nice. I also got her 4 stars super early which many will not have so the healing output I show I bet you can get from Thea. The fact is I suggest healer for the campaign and the tower to Page | 78 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ come. Just like conventional wisdom says 1 tank but trail shows that two is Ok I think healers are the same way. Eventually you will need 3 full lines for Grand arena so doubling up is not an issue even if you grow out if it.

I wanted to add more attack, so Artemis got the call. Looking back Galahad did more damage… Shielded in wave 2 and healed ins wave 3. Nebula at violet will boost ideally Kiera so I expect with Kiera’s armor penetration that damage to do well. The good news is Astaroth is holding up. His value is most realize at and near max. Lat run I ditched him early and wish I stuck with him. However in arena I am getting creamed by Luther at low levels, another tank I passed on

As we watch the damage taken, we see that archers are attacking deeper ranks. These being Dark Star and Artemins. Watch what the enemy heroes do and see if you like it. Chabba is an underrated tank. Many Twins players (lars Krista) run Krista in front. Her timing with her brother gets thrown off after she is swallowed. Here we can see that archers are attacking the back ranks.

That is better, now that nebula is violet she now uses a sphere to boost an adjacent ally or 2 away of she is on the back boosted attack instead of attacking herself. In this case I waited for the sphere to attack with Kiera’s ultimate and the same for Celeste’s heal (based on magic attack). You can see the jumps. I also leveled up. In time this boost helps get around armor and magic defense by piling on a strong attacker or helps boost skills.

This is what you want. The physical attack boost timed with the nebula sphere to super boost the Kiera ultimate. This is Kiera’s attack value with her armor penetration + the artifact 1 physical attack boost + nebulas attack. Since it is Kiera’s skill 1 t effects the entire enemy team. This is a time bomb.

Here I am starting to notice a great rhythm with this team in manual. Between the shield from Astaroth and the timing of the heal mode with celeste I can tank effectively with Astaroth. Gally runs in front on occasion too. Gally dealing as much damage is shocking to me. The rework did him well so im running with him. That fact that his artifact 1 boosts physical helps my killer, Kiera who as an AOE armor piercing killer is getting the physical attack done. I am noticing the Shaman is putting a big hurt on Astaroth so it must be time for a magic defense boost (the forge, Glyphs) but it looks like the Glyph is not available yet. The artifact 2 for Astaroth ups armor and magic defense so it needs some attention.

8-15 Furnace Of Horror – Boss Battle – Arch Demon

Ok so this boss battle made me questions this team. But it overcame with 3 stars. I was piling all resources into kiera but to beat the boss I needed to spread the love. I tried to use common heroes. When you start new there are many promotions in the beginning and a chance at a random later hero. I was gifted celeste so I ran with her. I was questioning Cornelius. In the regular levels he does not do much, he takes forever to charge but his Magic defensive side covers up Kiera’s weakness, magic defense. Could this team be viable? My first account used Orion and Ishmael with Thea and Maya and Ziri. It was not as successful as early. Is this a great combo? Sometimes a combo needs to be “good enough” and just see it through. Switching a team will cost you time. So is it worth upgrading any position? Will there be an enemy that is a brick wall? Could this team get through 15 chapters? I think it could. Since my first account days, Galahad, Astaroth and Kiera where reworked and all are excellent so far. Cornelius is more available; friendship chips are easier to get. And celeste is new. This team may not synergize the best, but it is fun to run. The manual Astaroth shield, The resurrection. Galahads damage is new and as always, he boosts physical damage with his surge (artifact 1). He starts behind Ashtaroth but runs in front. Celeste is fun to dictate when to heal when to stop enemy healing. Kiera attacks all enemies, a good AOE attacker is nice and Galahad does the same thing. Cornelius is the big punch to the back ranks and his down leveling a skill can be a game changer at max so I know his worth late game. This team carries him for now but he covers Kiera’s weak backside with his magic shield

I had to swap in nebula for Cornelius. The old man was getting hexed to death. Nebula offered some healing which helped in the long run. Cornelius is really a late game champ and player vs player champ. I can see why many pass on hi this early. I do know his magic shield will help going forward. In Nordland you get all sorts of magical enemies. And in Chapters 14 and 15 Corn will shine vs the Priests of Seymour. He also shines vs bosses. Just not the 3 waves of heros. He charges too slow.

I made it 25 levels with :

The tower changed since I first ran it. The heroes used to start charged. Now they do not. My thought was the healers and Ashtaroth’s shield would keep me alive. I tried to time Celeste’s healing to keep Astroth alive. From memory from my first time running the tower I used Ishmael, Orion, Thea, Ziri and Maya. Think Maya was a handout hero to new players like Celeste is this time. I also think Ziri had the monthly event. My start over account I will show you what I have any why I pick those heroes. The builds are not ideal but nor is my hero selection. I will update the tower once per chapter. I focused my upgrades on the best value upgrades as first until I had skull coins saved. I favored attack 1 st armor second and magic defense 3rd. I was offered no healings. I passed on the skills boost but I can see times they would help. Heroes below level 40 cannot participate so I will have to level some up:

At the end of the day this is where I finished. This is a little different than my first accounts tower Page | 111 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Tower Day -2

Day 2. I was able to skip ahead 14 floors due to yesterdays progress and my heroes started charged. I won 19 battles on day 2 so progress was mad.

Tower day 4 - I completed the tower

I skipped 20 levels from previous days progress, and I started with all attack. I cycled in at least 1 fresh hero each stage. Manual control of as troths shield, Celeste’s healing and blocking of healing and nebulas projection really helped.

My fist accounts climb in the tower took much longer. I had to get Ishmael Thea and Maya to do it. I ran auto, maybe manual is better. Maybe these heroes I passed on due to the manual nature not helping in Player vs player was a mistake.

Tower Day 5

I fell short of completing, not enough armor buffs and I got greedy trying to horde energy for the next battle that I lost Astaroth early. Long day once the rhythm is shot of shield and heal with Astaroth and Celeste.

Tower day 6

I completed the tower but lost many heroes. The key for me was keeping Kiera alive. She did 90% of the killing. As the team level goes up the tower will get harder and all my successes so far came from rotating in heroes. I am around a point where I can not level up all my heroes exp nor skills to keep up so I must choose wisely. Some people stop collecting the daily quest experience rewards and just keep completing the tower. Other level up their teams by collecting all the rewards and they experience some difficulties in the tower. That is normal, especially if you decide to all of a sudden build Ishmael (you now get from grand arena shop). Ishmael is a good and useful hero, especially with tower and auto mode but I am going to see how far I can push Kiera as an AOE attacker / killer with nebula healers and tanks. Ultimately, I think I want to build a magic team. I just do not like my mages so far. My first account is built around Karkh and with Kiera there is not much difference .

Tower day 7 – the gold crunch vs level and progression. I 100%’ed the tower This was the final battle. I got even upgrades for Armor, Magic defense and Attack (skills). This time I focused on the top 5 and they entered the last battle charged and offensive. They put the enemy down easy.

My first account tower run was much more difficult and if I can reflect back I would like to make some observations:  This account I focused more on only 5 heroes (6-orion is also Violet).  Against my gut I with a manual hero in Celeste and she drove me to work manual. Most heroes are better manual but some the difference is much more dramatic. I control the timing of: o Astaroth’s shield o Celeste when to heal and who, wait for Astaroth to get lowest o Celeste when to block enemy healing / vampirism o Nebulas globe. Use it to increase Celetsts skills (via magic attack boost) and to increase Kiera’s Ultimate skill. o Leveraging physical attack boosts from Galahad, Nebula and Kiera.

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ So here gold is getting very tight and eventually so will experience. There is a debate on whether or not to stop collecting team experience daily rewords so you can keep up with the tower difficulty progression. I am not opposed to this tactic, but I suggest two things first; One is make sure your hero focus is narrow and your primary attacker has an ultimate that damages multiple heroes. Second sell soul stones for unwanted heroes. Mostly I recommend the ones you get in the campaign that are not in your top 5 plans. At this stage so not plan on any more than 10 heroes. If you raid missions with say daredevil and you sell her soul stones your raiding makes more money and you’re only sacrificing the worst hero in the game. So with a narrow focus and selling of horrible hero soul stones you still may need gold. Maybe periodically slow down the advance in hero level for a day or two, not much more. Or maybe you just got a great new hero like Lars, K’arkh, Ishmael or Jhu and you want them in your top 5. Maybe then you hold of on team level until your new hero catches up but really wait only until you are stuck no completing a tower before resorting to the drastic measures. Intentionally keeping your level low will not help you if you want a top 5 to 7 heroes and want to progress the game. If you want to level up say 10+ heroes, you may want to keep the level low because as you level up the Items change in the tower. at 130 there are no more purple items so building new heroes the items need to be mined.

Tower going into chapter 8 I lost track of the days. Had a child and spent a week in the hospital but the tower was nice to me. I even started leveling Cornelius My team level is 61 and I pass the tower with my top say 8 heroes only. I am 100% manual and I time things. I conserver energy at the end of one battle to start charged the next. Account 1 I was Ishmael, Orion, Dorian coining and full automatic. I switched focuses a million times. I still had troubles. I was also in a dead guild. Get in an active guild to get the activity rewards, those glyphs help tremendously. I try and get as many physical attack bonuses as I can, mostly because an ounce of prevention (killing) is worth a pound of cure (armor) but also important is the skills. All skills are based on attack, so the attack boost is also a skills boost. Really focused thus a lower percent. I try and get some armor and magic protection on the way evenly or lean towards armor. Of course, take what you can, you cannot count on getting what you want

Brog the Conqueror The dude is immune to “physical damage” so “magic damage” and “pure damage” are needed

So early on Phobes is the real boss killer in this part the rest are just keeping him alive

Adding in the “pure damage” from Heidi makes her a valuable boss killer, Heidi might need some love for outland alone. She/ he (the developers describe Heidi as both) does suffer from low health. At higher levels she might not live long enough to rock Brog but her damage is no joke. Orion and Dorian dominate this battle as well

So Phobos was the main damage dealer, Then Heidi shined and now Orion overshadows. Armor penetration will be key during the higher levels and with Brog damaging all equally the low health heroes may not survive unless they can heal and or dodge the charge.

Trying Mojo for Phobos. Mojo adds magic penetration surges so other magic attacks will do better. Phobos surges are magic defense which is not useful with Brog. The self-healing of these two heroes may prove useful as he levels up

ILYSSA THE WEAVER Basics Her is the core:  Jhu  Cornelius  Martha Someone needs to kill the little spiders  Daredevil is only good for clearing the little spiders. her skills are not great. Page | 120 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS -

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/  Artemis, can you keep her health high? not likely so she is soso. Her attack is best when her health is max per her skill 4. Ginger is better than the two above for outland, still low health.  Kiera tends to ultimate a few times in a row verse the little spiders so 1 notch better than ginger.... all are low health heroes so your main killers need Martha in outland to heal them. Jhu can stay alive without Martha but all small spider clearers need her The last position can be:  Dante as a tank (not ideal but can help)  Another spider clearer

Artemis starts off strong. Daredevil is the worst hero in the game I would not bother with her

Ginger and Kiera join the fight. Kiera starts to dominate. Ginger does good as well in Outland

Kiera makes the others look worthless. Ginger at half power outshines Artemis. Daredevil can do good damage in outland but her low health makes her a major liability and her skills suck. Once enemies attack deeper ranks she is worthless.

Healing 0

Lessons of the day:

This is why you need a tank. (4) strong attackers with the Jorgen advantage (energy stealing) fell because of no tanks. I do not always recommend 2 tanks but I wanted to see by starting over and using the heroes available at the start how far I could take them. The reworked Galahad and Astaroth are good and actually good together so far. Astaroth starting in 1st position and takes damage for his lowest health ally and as the battle goes on Galahad charges in front to take the brunt of the attacks. Celeste heals the lowest health ally (Martha would too) Celeste boosts Astaroth and Cornelius. Cornelius helps with Magic defense which Kiera needs help with and Kiera and Galahad boost each other (artifact 1). Both Kiera and Galahad Page | 123 - Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/

Newbies Guide to HERO WARS Brought to you by: https://www.facebook.com/DanButchCasting/ have ultimate’s that attack all enemies. Galahad has a skill to target lowest health enemy which means he finishes after the AOE damage. Cornelius takes a long time to charge but he has a knack for killing important enemy support characters that have low health. He is a magic attacker but his attacks do physical damage. This is a well balanced team, Missing for Jorgen sure but I am curious how far It can go.
