Hero 레벨ing System

레벨업은 가장 기본적인 영웅 업그레이드 형태입니다. 각 레벨마다 기본 스탯(HP, 공격, 방어)이 증가합니다.

How to Gain EXP

• 캠페인 전투: 주요 경험치 출처. 체력을 사용해 스테이지를 반복하세요.
• 경험치 포션: 직접 경험치를 부여하는 소모품. 최고의 영웅을 위해 아끼세요.
• 이벤트: Many events reward EXP potions.
• 일일 퀘스트: 소량이지만 일관된 경험치를 제공합니다.

레벨ing Strategy

1. Focus on 3-5 core heroes. Don't spread EXP across your entire roster.
2. 레벨 your main combat hero first (usually your best S-tier).
3. 경제 영웅의 레벨을 충분히 유지하여 패시브 보너스를 활성화하세요.
4. Use EXP potions on heroes that are hard to grind (e.g., heroes you can't easily campaign with).

레벨 Caps

각 영웅은 별 레벨(승천 티어)에 의해 결정되는 레벨 제한이 있습니다:

• 1 Star: 레벨 30
• 2 별: 레벨 40
• 3 별: 레벨 50
• 4 별: 레벨 60
• 5 별: 레벨 70
• 6 별: 레벨 80+

레벨 제한을 넘으려면 먼저 영웅을 승천시켜야 합니다.

Hero Ascension (별)

승천은 영웅의 별 레벨을 올려 스탯 성장률과 레벨 제한을 높입니다. 이것은 가장 영향력 있는 업그레이드 방법입니다.

How to Ascend

Each ascension requires:

• Duplicate hero shards (specific to that hero)
• Generic ascension materials (available from events and shops)
• In-game currency (cash)

Shard Sources

Ascension 우선순위

1. Main combat hero (usually S-tier DPS or Commander)
2. 부지휘관 combat hero (tank or support)
3. Main economy hero (Mr. Ledger or equivalent)
4. Gathering hero (Foreman)
5. 방어 hero (The Architect)

Rule of thumb: It's better to have one 6-star hero than three 3-star heroes. Focus your shards.

스킬 업그레이드s

각 영웅은 개별적으로 업그레이드할 수 있는 3-4개의 스킬이 있습니다. 스킬 업그레이드는 자원 대비 가장 눈에 띄는 파워 증가를 제공합니다.

Skill 유형s

1. Ultimate Skill (Skill 1): The hero's signature ability. Always upgrade first.
2. 패시브 Skill (Skill 2): Always-active bonus. 업그레이드 second.
3. Active Skill (Skill 3): Activated on cooldown. 업그레이드 third.
4. Trigger Skill (Skill 4): Conditional activation. 업그레이드 last (if at all).

스킬 업그레이드 자재

• Skill Books: Generic upgrade material, available through events and quests.
• Special Skill 자재: Hero-specific, obtained from events and the alliance shop.
• 화폐: 현금 cost per upgrade.

업그레이드 Strategy

• Max the Ultimate first — it's the most impactful skill.
• Don't upgrade skills on heroes you'll replace. Save materials.
• During 2x skill upgrade events, spend saved materials.
• Prioritize DPS heroes' skills over support heroes' — damage scaling is more valuable.

권장 Skill 레벨s

Hero Gear & 장비

장비는 추가 스탯 보너스를 제공하며 영웅과 독립적으로 업그레이드할 수 있습니다.

Gear 슬롯s

각 영웅은 일반적으로 4개의 장비 슬롯이 있습니다:

1. Weapon: 공격 bonus
2. Armor: 방어/HP bonus
3. Boots: 속도 bonus
4. Accessory: Special bonus (crit, dodge, etc.)

Gear Quality 티어s

• 커몬 (Gray): Basic stats
• 레어 (Blue): Decent stats + 1 substat
• 에픽 (Purple): Good stats + 2 substats
• 레전더리 (Gold): Best stats + 3 substats
• 신화 (Red): End-game gear

Gear Strategy

1. 저티어 장비에 투자하지 마세요. 에픽+ 장비를 위해 업그레이드 자재를 아끼세요.
2. 장비를 영웅 역할에 맞추세요 — DPS는 공격 장비, 탱커는 방어 장비.
3. 업그레이드 weapon first for DPS heroes, armor first for tanks.
4. 세트 보너스(사용 가능한 경우)는 게임 체인저가 될 수 있습니다. 핵심 영웅에게 풀세트를 목표로 하세요.
5. 장비 상점에서 자원을 소비하기보다는 이벤트에서 장비를 파밍하세요.

Gear Recycling

• Don't discard old gear — recycle it for materials.
• Upgrading gear to +3 or +5 is efficient; beyond that, costs increase exponentially.
• 더 좋은 장비를 얻으면 교체하되, 임시 장비에 과도하게 투자하지 마세요.

Hero Bonds & Synergy

일부 영웅은 같은 행군이나 시설에 함께 배치할 때 특별한 유대 보너스가 있습니다.

How Bonds Work

• 특정 영웅 조합은 패시브 스탯 보너스를 잠금 해제합니다.
• These bonuses stack with individual hero skills.
• Bond requirements are typically thematic (e.g., two "Combat" heroes).

Notable Bond Combinations

팁: Check each hero's bond list in their profile. Plan your team around active bonds for maximum benefit.

---

Hero Assignment Strategy

Where you assign heroes matters as much as how upgraded they are.

Assignment Categories

1. 행군 지휘관: Leads combat marches. Your strongest combat hero.
2. Garrison Commander: Defends your base. Best defense hero.
3. Facility Staff: Assigned to buildings for passive bonuses.
4. Gathering Leader: Leads gathering marches for speed/load bonuses.

Assignment Optimization

Rotate assignments based on needs: Use economy heroes during peace, combat heroes during war.

Resource Management for 업그레이드s

Hero upgrades are resource-intensive. Here's how to manage the costs:

EXP Potion Economy

• Save EXP potions for new heroes that need to catch up quickly.
• Don't waste potions on heroes at their level cap.
• Grind campaign stages with excess stamina for passive EXP.

Shard Economy

• Never shard a hero you might use later. Even B-tier heroes have niche uses.
• Save surplus shards for ascension events that reward progress.
• Prioritize shards for your main 3-5 heroes.

Skill Material Economy

• Always keep a reserve of skill books for new hero releases.
• During rate-up events, you may pull a new hero — have materials ready to upgrade them immediately.
• Don't fully upgrade skills on temporary heroes.

Gear Material Economy

• Farm gear materials from events, not the shop.
• Recycle old gear for upgrade materials.
• Only upgrade gear you'll use long-term.

F2P vs P2P 업그레이드 Paths

F2P 업그레이드 Path

• Focus on 3 core heroes and ignore the rest.
• Prioritize one S-tier hero (from free summons/events) and max it completely.
• Use A-tier heroes as fillers — they're cheaper to upgrade and still effective.
• Be patient — upgrades come slowly without spending. Consistency wins.
• Maximize free resources from daily activities, events, and alliance.

낮음 Spender Path

• 월간 패스 accelerates all upgrades through extra gems.
• 배틀 패스 provides consistent upgrade materials.
• Focus spending on one S-tier hero rate-up rather than spreading across banners.
• Buy first-purchase bonuses during your first month for maximum value.

Whale Path

• Max your top 5 heroes in parallel.
• Rotate rate-up spending to build a diverse roster.
• Invest in gear heavily — it's the most whale-impacted upgrade system.
• Still follow counter-based team building — raw power can't overcome bad strategy.

커몬 업그레이드 Mistakes

1. Spreading resources too thin. Upgrading 10 heroes to level 30 is worse than upgrading 3 heroes to level 60.
2. Upgrading skills evenly. Always max the Ultimate first. Other skills are secondary.
3. Investing in C/D tier heroes. Even fully upgraded, they're weaker than un-upgraded A-tier heroes.
4. Ignoring gear. Gear provides significant bonuses. Don't neglect it.
5. Not using bonds. Hero bonds provide free stat bonuses — always activate them.
6. Wasting EXP on level-capped heroes. Ascend first, then continue leveling.
7. Upgrading low-tier gear. Save materials for 에픽+ gear.
8. Not checking event schedules. Many events provide 2x upgrade bonuses — time your upgrades accordingly.
