Skittleskull or Caedmon - who would you train first?

[maldos04]

Title kind of sums it up. Thoughts?
Green was easily my weakest colour, only have Berden fully ascended and Belith at 1/1.
Managed to snag both in two pulls on the green elemental summon

[Robkirky1]

Why not both, lol
Id go Cade first, faster mana and debuffs

[SilverDragonR]

Caed have dispell, very useful against riposte and other buffs. 1 one for him.

[arios]

Caedmon for sure , if you got another Caedmon , pick Caedmon again over Skittle

[Sarapatel]

Feed Caedmon with Skittles

[Adirtyempire]

Caedmon by a landslide.

[MrMeeseeks]

Don’t feed Ceadmon with Skittle. Level both, first Caedmon.

[HarryDeB]

@arios

Skittle

This!
Or belith before your 2nd caed for the events.

[Olmor]

Slows bore themselves in the bench, if faster available…

I kill Skilttleskul as many times as I get him. See my 4* nature

I would level both to 4* 3.60 to help with class quests

Completing class quests get you more emblems.

Skittleskull is more useful against the bosses for both sorcerer quest.

Edit:
Attack debuff all bosses, neutral or strong damage versus Mysticism bosses, and neutral damage versus all but Scarlett for Shadow quest.

Green heroes are weak versus red mobs and purple heroes are weak versus purple mobs so none have a clear advantage versus the red & purple mons in sorcerer quests.

Sorcerer Graymane is actually strong versus red mobs but Fighter Valen is better so I can not recommend leveling Graymane just for sorcerer quest. Same goes for Sorcerer Jahangir ( neutral damage versus red mobs) and Cleric Hawkmoon.

I am also a big fan of getting a good rainbow 4* 3.60 team before leveling any hero to 4* 4.1 ( see notes )

How to level your first 4* team

@Gryphonknight

Level your first rainbow team from 4* tier 1 level 1 ( 4* 1.1 ) to 4* tier 3 level 60 ( 4* 3.60 ). Do not use 3* ascension items, yet.

Any 4* 3.60 hero is better than any 3* 3.50 heroes.

==Leveling your rainbow team to 4* 3.60==

4* 3.60 heroes are the most powerful in the game using only 1*/ 2* ascension items. 1* / 2* ascension items can be farmed on the world map along with recruits, food, iron, XP, ingredients, 1* / 2* troops and 1* / 2* heroes.

Two 4* 3.60 heroes take the same XP as one 4* 4.70. But the 4* 4.70 is not twice as powerful as each 4* 3.60 hero. While two 4* 3.60 heroes are more versatile, and with double color ( see below ) potentially more powerful.

If you level a 4* 3.60 hero to 4* 4.1 you use six 3* ascension items. If you buy them during special offers, this will cost $12+ USD. You can never get these 3* ascension items back.

Save your 3* ascension items, and the hero XP, until you know the game better and can select which heroes are good.

==Use only same color 1* / 2* heroes to level your 4* heroes==

Using matching colors doubles your chance of the hero’s special skill increasing, and gives you a bonus +20% hero XP.

Later you can experiment with off color/ random color leveling of heroes.

Click for discussion of 5* 2.60 and 5* 3.70 heroes

5* 2.60 and 3.70

5* 2.60 is generally weaker than 4* 3.60 .

5* 3.70 is generally weaker than 4* 4.70 .

The Devs have said this is by design.

5* 3.70 Exceptions

There are several exceptions- Alberich, Joon, Natalya and several others- are all very powerful at 5* 2.60 and 5* 3.70.

These are usually heroes with specials that do not do damage ( revive, heal over time, mana over time ) have a very powerful secondary effect ( 6 turn blind, non dispellable DOT, non dispellable debuff, zero initial damage with 100% DOT to bypass reflect damage and high defense stat ) or have powerful secondary effect not found in 4* Heroes ( Crush of Hel until Scar of the Depths was added ).

5* 3.70 follow the rule

There are many heroes that 5* 3.70 are worse than a similar 4* 4.70 hero- Lianna, Horghall, Sartana, Quintus, Marjana, Azlar, and many others.

Example

5* 3.70 Marjana is weaker than 4* 4.70 Kelile.

These are usually heroes with specials that are pure damage, partial damage and partial DOT, or a slow mana speed version of a 4* heroes fast mana speed, or average mana speed, special ability.
