Being Attacked

Let's start by saying you're going to be attacked. It's part of the game. It's kind of the whole point of the game. You will be attacked. Period.

What should I do if I'm attacked?
• Don't try to "handle it" alone. Let your guild know. You're stronger as a team. Your leader and R4s can help decide how best to handle it. They might retaliate or tell you to. You might not be strong enough to do so yet if your attacker is part of a very strong guild. If you attack back without consulting anyone, you might get the whole guild attacked.
• Keep calm. It happens. You may lose troops and/or resources. Rebuild, retrain, ask for supplies, and try to minimize your losses next time. There WILL be a next time.

How can I protect my troops?
• SHIELD or SHELTER!! I cannot stress this enough. If you don't have any shields, send your troops and leader to the shelter. If you'll be gone longer than the shield will hold, do both.
• Upgrade your infirmaries. It's cheaper and quicker to heal vs retrain, but anyone who doesn't fit will die. Make sure your infirmaries are big enough to hold as many of your troops as possible so you only suffer wounds instead of deaths.
• Hold a fake rally. Pick a level 5 Darknest or a dead castle and set it for 8 hours.
• Reenforce and/or garrison a guildmate who has a long shield activated.
• There's an attack coming for you and you've done all that, but you've still got more troops than your Infirmaries can hold: RUN. Send them to gather very far away, but don't let them arrive. Withdrawal right before they get there. Just get them out for the attack. Keep them moving.

How can I make myself a less attractive target?
• SHIELD or SHELTER! If there are no troops to hit, it's not as worth it.
• Keep your resources LOW! Only keep on hand what fits in your vault. Gold is only protected at level 25, so don't stock up. Don't open any resources from your bag unless you're using it all right away. If there are no resources to steal, it's not as worth it.
• Don't scout or attack anyone unless you mean it. Randomly attacking will draw attention not only from that player, but potentially their whole guild. Revenge is usually worth it just to watch the place burn - even if there are no troops or resources.

Remember
No matter what you do or how pointless it may seem for someone to attack you, you're going to be attacked. Unless you've got a shield up 24/7, you're going to be attacked. It may even be for no reason whatsoever - just some jerk who thinks it's fun. (That's me!) But you're going to be attacked. Minimize your losses wherever possible, try to be as unattractive a target as possible, and after you get attacked - pick yourself up, brush yourself off, and move on.

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...

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 ...

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.
