Assigning a Leader

Your leader is your chat avatar and the one who will bounce around on your profile screen, but who should you pick? (I'm going to say he a lot, but only because it's proper English to choose one pronoun. Chicks can lead too, man.)

The thing to remember about assigning a leader is that it is (well, should be) a temporary thing based on what you're doing. He's not some permanent fixture in your account. As long as he's home and not engaged, you can change him whenever you want.

If you're hosting a DN, hosting an enemy rally, or attacking a solo castle, he should be set to counter whatever is the primary troop in the target. If you're doing a hive raid, he should be someone you're always going to send. Either someone with Logistical Battle Skills that support your primary troop type or someone with an army boost or something else applicable for every counter. Bombin' Goblin and Rose Knight are good leaders for raiding.

If you're sitting around unsheilded and unsheltered, first you'd better be sure it's on purpose and you can take an attack. Then make sure your leader supports your best troops. Same as the rest of the heros assigned to your wall. You want them all to have Logistical Battle Skills that support troop types you have. It doesn't hurt if they've got Trap ATK, Trap HP, or Trap DEF in addition to army or troop Logistical Battle Skills. Definitely don't put a hero on your wall who has mostly - or all - Administrative Battle Skills or Logistical ones that only support siege. If you're finished with the first two chapters of the Hero Stages, you've already got better options.

Remember that sending your leader into battle activates your war talents and gear. But your leader's Administrative Battle Skills are always active whether he's the leader or not. And if you're sending other heros into battle without him, you won't get your gear and talents, but their Logical Battle Skills will still apply. Same as all of their Administrative Battle Skills are "on".

If you're not actively using your leader (you're shielded or he's in the shelter) it truly doesn't matter who you have set a your leader. As long as he's not in prison, all of the talents that don't apply to war will be active. The specific hero you've chosen as your leader only comes into play based on his Logistical Battle Skills when he is in battle. So it's fine to just pick your favorite or the one you're most proud of and switch him out when you're actually doing something. Just don't forget to switch him.

Darknest Rallies

T's Ultimate Darknest Rally Guide Victory over a Darknest isn't just about how many troops you send at it. It's about which troops and why. Sure, you might be able to beat it by just throwing a ton of troops at it, but you'll end up with more wounded than necessary. Why Do Darknest Rallies? It's basically free loot. Random, but you don't need to do much for it other than hold the rally correctly and heal some troops. Troops sent to a Darknest will never die unless you don't have room in your Infirmary. There are 5 grades of essence just like gear and heroes and... well, pretty much everything. The grade goes up with the Darknest levels. Level 1 nests give you common up through level 5 nests giving you legendary. Theoretically, the higher the essence, the better the loot. I say theoretically because sometimes you cook an epic one for 12 hours and still get something useless to you and other times you do a common one and get something you need

The "Best" Heroes

I mean it when I say that the primary thing to keep in mind is that all of the heroes have strengths and weakness. There is no universal "best" hero. It comes down to personal preference and building a good team with all the types and useful battle skills for what you're focused on. But I know that's not what you want. So here goes. This is just my personal opinion. Free Heroes 1. Rose Knight 2. Heroes with troop specific ATK & HP Battle Skills • Demon Slayer - Infantry • Snow Queen - Ranged • Child of Light - Cavalry 3. Trickster 4. Bombin' Goblin 5. Prima Donna Paid Heroes 1. Lore Weaver 2. Berserker 3. Songstress of the Sea 4. The Big Guy 5. Witch Doll Rose Knight Cavalry • STR (Strength) She is the most ideal free hero offered in the game right now. She has high HP, healing capabilities, and at Rank 7, she has an Army ATK boost.

Heros: Types, Grades, Levels, & Ranks

There are four different types of characteristics that are important determining factors of various aspects of a hero. - Attribute type determines which basic attribute increases ATK. - Grade determines the boost percentage of the Battle Skills. - Level determines the amounts for the Hero Skill bonuses and the ability to equip Trophies. - Rank unlocks Battle and Hero Skills and Trophies affect the hero's statistics. For monster hunting, hero stages, and the Colosseum, heroes with a higher level and rank tend to be more important than heroes with a higher grade. Grade does also add to their statistics, so a higher grade is better than a lower grade, but in general, grade is not a huge factor for anything but their Battle Skill %. The opposite is also true. If you're looking at Battle Skills, a hero with a higher grade will be more effective than a hero at a higher level or rank. Rank does increase command, which will ultimately give you more troops and a hero with
