FAQ
Q: What is the best strategy for charging hero special attacks quickly?
A: Special attacks are powered by mana, which increases every time you match shields of that hero’s specific color. To charge them faster, try to make matches that result in combos. Additionally, if you fire shields into an empty lane where there is no enemy, your heroes gain double the mana compared to when a shield hits a target.
Q: Why should I focus on hero synergy rather than just picking my highest-rated characters?
A: While individual power is important, a team that works together is often more effective. For example, pairing a hero who lowers enemy defense with a hero who deals heavy area-of-effect damage can wipe out a team much faster than two high-power heroes with unrelated skills. Look for combinations that include healing, buffs, and debuffs.
Q: How do hero costumes work and what are their benefits?
A: Costumes are alternative versions of heroes you already own. When you equip a costume, it often changes the hero’s special skill and elemental class. Most importantly, fully leveling a costume provides a permanent "Costume Bonus" to the base hero’s stats, including increased attack, defense, and health.
