Our tips will help you understand the basics of the game, understand what things to avoid, and of course, succeed in battles!

The elements


There are 4 main elements in War Lords:

Fire (red)

Water (blue)

Earth (green)

Air (light blue)

In the future, the heroes of the elements of Light and Darkness will appear.


 * "Water" is stronger than "Fire", but weak to "Air";
 * "Fire" is stronger than Earth, but weak to "Water";
 * "Earth" is stronger than "Air, but weak to "Fire";
 * "Air" is stronger than "Water", but weak to "Earth".

Sometimes the outcome of the battle will depend on the elemental affiliation of your heroes.

Therefore, it is very important to understand this relationship.

Automatic fight
Automatic fight is a very handy feature, but we advise you to opt out of it when playing with newly acquired / only acquired / new heroes.

From knowing the skills and characteristics of the hero, it will be much easier for you to see the strengths and weaknesses of each of them. This will allow you to skillfully distribute forces in the squad and win battles.

Also, do not forget to explore their capabilities on the "Skills" tab in the hero's profile.



Upgrade your skills in the campaign!
To strengthen the strength of your squad, advance, and again advance along the path of the campaign! Get equipment for completing levels!

Equipment can significantly increase the strength of your heroes, help in the campaign and allow you to take top places in the Arena!



Equipment increases the heroes' power!


Each hero needs equipment, and it is important to use and distribute inventory correctly: if this is an attack hero, then his strength will be supplemented by equipment with an attack bonus; if this is a defense hero, then he should use equipment that improves his defense.

Don't forget to upgrade your equipment!
To improve equipment, you need to increase its level. You can upgrade every item up to level 16.

At the start of the game, you probably don't want to upgrade your gear above +12. The upgrade process gets quite expensive as the gear level increases, so you will waste precious resources by wasting too much silver on gear that will soon give way to new loot.



Rank up low rarity heroes
When you increase the rank of a hero, you will need to sacrifice other heroes of the same rank. However, do not rush to get rid of such heroes, you may need them later. Instead, level up common and uncommon heroes and use them as "food"!



Improve the skills of the same heroes
If you have the same characters, you can transform your character by donating the same one. This will increase the skill level of this hero!

Battle rows
War Lords provides a wide range of tactics thanks to the battle rows. Your squad in battle will be located in two rows - distribute your squad correctly: for example, a hero with the “Guardian” property standing in the first line will protect the second row from close attacks, even if the other two places in the first row are empty.



Pay attention! The hero will not be able to use melee skills if you put him in the back row and put another character in front of him. Don't do it like in the screenshot above!

Play with your friends!
Find friends and associates to make this adventure even more interesting! For this there is a chat of players in Discord, communities on Facebook, VK (RU), and also, an in-game chat will appear soon!

NOT:
Our list of War Lords tips also contains a number of important things to avoid.

Don’t be afraid to grind!
Throughout the course of your adventure, you may find yourself outclassed by enemy hordes or trying to work with new Heroes whose capabilities lag behind the rest of your team’s. Situations like these are the perfect opportunity to grind. You can freely repeat all campaign missions as you need. There are many reasons to replay missions, and leveling up is only one of them.

Don't duplicate Heroes
As you progress through the game, you will earn heroes as rewards and unlocks. Many of them will be repeats of heroes you have already earned. This means that you can freely use your duplicates in the Garrison to upgrade the ones you have chosen as favorites.

You can use a duplicate hero to increase the level of his skills.



Never give up!
During the game, sometimes you can lose to the enemy team. Situations like this are great opportunities to retrace past steps. Obtaining new rarities, pumping the level of heroes - these are just some reasons for passing already mastered locations.

You can freely repeat any campaign missions as needed, as long as you have energy and tribute in store.

Don't forget about the garrison!
Upgrading Heroes - a key feature as you are customizing your favorite group. This is especially important if you have already found several heroes that you like. Use the materials you collect in missions to make your favorite warriors even stronger.



Use support heroes!
Having a hero with healing on hand to heal your group's wounds will often save your day. Support heroes range from regular healers to heroes capable of raising dead allies, as well as those focused on strengthening your team and weakening the enemy.



Don't forget about auras.
Some heroes have a passive skill called Aura, which increases a certain index for each hero on the team. Only the hero in the "Leader" position of the team will be able to project his Aura in battle. Make sure your leader always has an aura!
