I need help with figuring which heroes I should be upgrading and using in wars, raids and for defense

Hi, and welcome to the forums!

You’re right, this kind of question is asked a lot, but because everyone has different heroes to work with, every answer is different.

Preliminaries:

1. Unleveled heroes aren’t very effective. Keep your Training Camps working 24/7 to churn out 1* and 2* “feeders” that you’ll use to level your core heroes. Use TC2 as much as you can; have TC11 (or TC4) running when you’re out of backpacks. TC1 is okay as a faster option to TC11/4.
2. Work on leveling 5 heroes at a time, one of each color. Give blue feeders to the blue hero-in-training, yellow to yellow, etc. Doing so gives a 20% bonus on the experience and 100% bonus on odds of increasing the special skill level.
3. Work to get Training Camp 20 built and running. This is the most reliable (and only free) source of 4* and 5* heroes to build your bench.
4. Build a core of 3* heroes first, then work on 4*. 4* heroes will be the backbone of your team for a year or more. Building up from 3s will give you enough firepower to get reasonably far through all the rare quests, class trials, raid tournaments, and challenge events, and to do well on titans. Accomplishing these goals well is how you get the rare ascension materials you’ll need to ascend your 4 and 5* heroes to the top tiers.
5. Any 5* heroes you get should be treasured but left to one side until later–they are tremendously costly to level up, in terms of food, feeders, and rare ascension mats.
6. Level a hero up to at least the top of the 3rd ascension before shifting focus. Heroes below that mark aren’t very effective.

IMO, priority level project plan from left to right on each color, and not spreading level, focus one hero on each color.

Red: Finish Hawkmoon 3.44 to 3.50 (max), Boldtusk ASAP, Marjana to 3.70, finish Nashgar to max, 2nd Kelile to 3.60, Colen.
Blue: Isarnia to 3.70, Grimm, Sonya, Ulmer (great for fast tournament), 2nd Kiril
Green: Melendor, finish 2nd and 3rd Caedmon, finish all almost max.
Yellow: finish all almost max
Purple: finish all almost max

Defense: Caedmon - Gormek - Boril - Li Xiu - Rigard
Attack: normally it depend on opponent tank color, and we bring more strong color, so if tank color is green, then we example we bring 3 red, and see if we need dispell or not, if opponent has many buff, also need cleanser if opponent debuff or burn our heroes.
