Everyone has a preference in heroā€™s :slight_smile: that what makes the community so strong cause we can have discussions and other can conclude there own decisions based off of that. I disagree with you on falcon he is an amazing hero and the only one currently with the fire debuffer. I believe he is a staple in a great nature titan team

Can someone explain the ā€œ#suggested this is the cut off to work on a 4* heroes over 5*ā€ area? Maybe Iā€™m not caffeinated enough at the moment.

Every 5* below that line isnā€™t worth emblems. Give the emblems to one of the listed 4* instead.

Of course falcon is good I never said otherwise. I got my biggest titan hit today of 93k with boldtusk, Wilbur, falcon, Scarlett and Wu against a 10* green. I said he doesnā€™t hit very hard and isnā€™t a good hero on a defense team. What makes him good is the fire debuff but I wouldnā€™t spend emblems to give him a few extra points of attack.

Love ur work. Very helpful to make decision. Most of them i agree with ur point. Thanks guys

So Grimm over Gormak. Grimm dies,Gormak lives. Grimm dies before I can get him charged. I have 3. I maxed one 3.6 the other and havent touched the third.I skip red tanks because heā€™s useless if you can t get him to fire before hes dead. I put my Emblems with Gormak and Boldtusk and there a great team.

Just letting you know that I havenā€™t forgotten about our hero class explanations; hoping to have it complete within the next day.

Keep an eye for it at crystalknights.net

Great visual. I have shared it with my alliance.
I have also learnt how to book mark so I can find it again.

While I think you did a nice job on you graphic you have a problem. Most of the heros you recommend are not really available to many players. Looking at your chart reads to me as thisā€¦ Use emblems on hotms and some event heros. Your recommendations are dominated with hotms and event heros. So for newer players and even some long time players your chart is useless. Remove the cut line on 5* and just rank each class which hero to use emblems on regardless 4* or 5* status.

My apologies for the delay in responding.

Thank you for the suggestion, Iā€™ll discuss it with the others that helped create it.

Also, the explanations on how we came to our conclusions will be completed this week. Weā€™ve had illnesses and RL getting in the way of our E&P content.

As a F2P player, the decisions are pretty obvious for meā€¦ Iā€™m upgrading what I have for example Richard, Horghall and Quintus. Itā€™s depressing to look at all those fancy rankings and not having a budget in this game :disappointed_relieved:

Good on you for utilising the emblems on what heroes you have though.

I have the utmost respect for ftp, like yourself. Itā€™s a harder road but you will appreciate what heroes you have alot more.

May the odds be in your favor :sunglasses:

F2P too, the best heroes to spend emblems on, are the ones you haveā€¦ this chart is intended to help those who have a roster of 90 4 and 5* heroes stuck on level 1/1 because they hope to pull ā€œthe oneā€ next timeā€¦ meanwhile, for us F2P, any hero we put emblems on is a big step forward, I know this first hand! Right now is a good period for 4* heroes. A very good one. My 4* team is at level 6 and 7 on the talent grid, while the 5* I face are about level 1 or 2. This creates a great advantage for the 4* heroes at the moment. The advantage will go away in time, as the 5* will climb the talent grid, but for now, it makes the 4* a lot more versatile and reliable against 5* teams. Since the emblems started piling up my average cups count went up went up with about 300. Now diamond arena is a regular thing even if overnight Iā€™m pushed back in platinum.
Oh! and if you happen to pull a better hero in that class, emblems can always be reset, for a fair price.

Thank you for the hard work in pulling this together and then sharing on the forum. I really do appreciate it. I have only been playing for three months and have got to the stage of considering emblems for my heroes. So your suggestions really do help me out. Brilliant stuff ā€¦

Iā€™m so pleased to hear that, thank you and youā€™re very welcome.

If you need help with anything feel free to ask and/or have a look at the Player Guides in the forum.

I find this interesting, and Iā€™d be curious to see an updated version; there doesnā€™t seem to be one on your website.

Two things Iā€™d like to see specifically addressed:

  1. When this was initially published, Aegir was ranked fifth among the Paladins. That was before his V20 buff - where would you slot him in now?

  2. More recent HOTMā€™s are not yet in the grid. Iā€™m particularly interested to see where youā€™d put Seshat in the Ranger category.

Cheers!

Thank you, but that is the one Iā€™m referring to as not up to date (note the lack of recent HOTMā€™s).
