Hi,
I have been playing for 3 months now and I’m finally able to ascend either some 4* heroes to tier 4 or 5* heroes to tier 3.
I know it is generally recommended to first build a 4* team.
But it is very tempting to level Ariel and even though he seems to be a less loved hero, I got used to my Anzogh too…
My problem is: I need a healer, so far I mostly still use Belith. But if I ascend Ariel I will have to give up Grimm on a rainbow team, and I really like him.
Blue: really like my Grimm, but Ariel is an amazing healer that could save me on tougher levels.
Red: too many options here lol.
Boldtusk as a substitute for Ariel maybe? He doesn’t heal as much though and I wouldn’t have additional heal from Anzogh, who has saved me every now and then. Kelile hits hard and is a fast sniper, nice to have on a titan team…
Green: Caedmon without a doubt.
Holy: Won’t waste any more resources on Danzaburro for sure
Dark: not sure if I should ascend Cyprian or wait for a better one.
It took 3 months to aquire the current ascension materials so I am scared to make the wrong decision. Help would be very appreciated
Boldstuck, Grimm and Cyprian should receive your mats imo. Cyprian can hold at tank for a long time and can help a lot by making enemy kill themselves.
I used 3/60 Cyprian to successfully complete the last level of Springvale a few months back.
Don’t underestimate the power of riposte
And BT should heal plenty for the duration of the fight with Grimm killing everyone with his massive hits
Don’t forget that a max 4* can be used to complete legendary tier of events, whilst a 3/70 5* can’t be used during epic tier
So with max 4*, you can complete 2 tiers that give guaranteed mats to ascend more heroes
Edit : Just checked your roster. Actually, i would bring BT to 3/60, then lvl Wilbur to 3/60 and then ascend one or the other.
Wilbur is a game changer and is of great use, even at 3/60! Let Anzogh sit for now. BT/Wilbur pairing will let you clear most of the events/rare quests with good item usage
Agree with this 100%. For early players like myself, Riposte help me go through the maps like butter, I’d recommend Cyprian for any player with a limited amount of 4*
The Blue healer VS Ramming Pulvizener, I prefer Grimm 1st as you still can use belith for a while, and use heal pots for maps, event challenge, and titan.
Edit: Well Ariel is very good *5 with avarage healer. Hard choice.
Notes: 2-3 rainbow *3 heroes will help your stack colors
Consider best *3 heroes to keep:
Red: Rudolph, Squire Wabbit, Namahage, Hawkmoon, Nashgar, Azar
Blue: Gato, Valen, Ulmer, Gunnar
Green: Muggy, Belith, Brienne, Berden, Mnesseus, Hisan
Yellow: Bane, Gan Ju, Melia, Kailani
Purple: Balthazar, Tyrum, Chochin, Gill-Ra
All the advice above is excellent but you REALLY need a healer. It may makes sense to emblem your 3* healers for now or hope you get a lucky summons. Make sure you bring extra healing pots with you meanwhile.
That said, the worst thing that can happen to newer players is pulling 5* right off the bat. I made that mistake and lost several weeks if not a month of leveling 4* trying to get my 5* to a useful point.
Good luck and May RNGesus grant you a healer (BT, Kiril, Sabina or Melendor please)
Hello,
Quick question
In my defence I’m using Gormek(4/40+) as tank, Boril(3/60), Frida(2/52) flank and Rigard,(4/25) Li(3/60) as wing.
Any thought
Also have Sonya, Caedmon, Jackal, BT, Jack ohare, Tiburtus, at 3/60 or higher.
A few more 4* ascending, including Cyprian, not ready for prime time yet.
Thank you.
Have fun.

Hey Wolf9!
For your defense, i would have 4 options.
Rigard - Boril - Gormek - Li - Caedmon
Gormek in his last tier will get beefier and can really take a beating!
Rigard - Gormek - Li - Boril - Caedmon
Only if you ascend Li. My wife is using her as tank and her defense is holding her in platinum. I am not saying that you should ascend Li as i don’t know what materials you have
Caedmon - Gormek - Rigard - Boril/Li - Li/Sonya
Rigard is my tank currently and helping keep at 2100-2200 cups pretty comfortably.
Rigard - Gormek - Boril - Li - Caedmon
Only if you plan on getting Boril to tier 4.
I don’t have Frida but at 2/60, i don’t she is one of your strongest hero. She might die too easily to be of any help(At least, my 2/60 Alice was ) You could swap Sonya in for Caedmon in option 1 or 3, if you don’t care about a rainbow defense.
Hope it answers your questions.
Good night
Thank you,
I cannot ascent just yet, Jackal stole the orbs.
Caedmon is at 3/60, i could level him, but i just got Melancor yesterday, and Jack is right there(3/45) and i like him in offence.
I put Frida in because i thought that she could be annoying.
Will go with # 1 the only change is swap Li position and add Caedmon (used to be there)
Thank you again.
Have fun.

I don’t have Jack, so i can’t talk for him
As for Jackal, mine is maxed and on my defense team because i have no hero to place there just yet
And it is a great idea to take your 4* ro 3/60 before ascending them. At least until you have 2-3 of each colors. This way, you don’t spend hard to earn ascension mats and you have strong heroes to chose from, depending on the situation. Leveling a 4* 4/1 to 4/70 is also very long and cost a lot of resources,
The maths are on the forum somewhere if you want to compare😉
It also allow to get to know the hero and if you like him enough to ascend or not. I know i will never ascend Gormek because i am using Grimm and Wilbur everywhere!
Jack is pretty good, damage to all, decent hit, only problem shoot himself in the foot for 3 turn.(-20% def.)
I don’t have many heroes, but Wilbur is one that I’m looking forward to get, at some time, maybe. AR is almost here!
Not yet at Sh 20, no Tc 20.
Gormek is really beefy can take a beating, perfect for my needs, don’t take him on offence that much, mainly in events toward the last levels, and titans stacks, (BT, Kelile+ 3*'s) not much of a damage dealer still def- is handy.
Thanks again.

@Wolf9
My Jack is 3:60 & I’m debating on which 2 to ascend (Little John, Jack, & Evelyn) probably the last 2, but hopefully they will be making a 4* version of Gato so we don’t have to worry about that -20 defense problem
It hurts to give up on Ariel for the moment but I think I’ll level Boldtusk for a healer for now so I can focus on Grimm once I get another coat.
For now I ascended Caedmon, as he was the only one at 3.60
I also started working on some 3*s because they are so much faster to fully ascend and I don’t want to be so useless in wars
I need more variety for the trials too…
Hello and thanks,
From what i read on the forum, Evelyn is pretty good but i don’t have her so no exp. to share.
LJ is slow but when ready he hit hard, mana - is very good.
I like Jack, fast, damage to all, again survival may be an issue further down the game. I wouldn’t recommende him for defence but good offence. Having a healer or a rispoter does help in general.
To Junglejane,
BT is a must have in offence IMO. Not a hitter, still can take a hit or 2, healer + att. +, tiles damage is average.
I agree 3* are fun and some are pretty good, especially whith a few emblems.
I have set up 2 teams of fighter + 2 healers, and working on a team made up of Atlantis 3*.
For wars they come handy as a fifth or sixth team or stacking, some events have 3* only levels, and some of the raids tournament are also 3* only, so they still have their use.
Enjoy and have fun.
