Daggers can't attack diagonally, unless you have some additional range. If your move would result in the option to flank an enemy character, the attack icon on them will change to reflect the flanked status.ħ. The doubling damage of a dagger doesn't start out as much, but can become absolutely bonkers as the characters get higher level and you start doubling the bonus damage the character has acquired from XP and gear. In order to maximize this, you need characters who can hit several characters at a time (usually mystics) and you need characters who can make best use of the flanking (usually hunters). It doesn't do any additional damage (except with daggers), but it does guarantee a hit. Flanking happens when you attack an enemy from at least a 90 degree angle to a previous attack. Flanking! Flanking is the single biggest way to remove the rng from this game. Enemies will move to avoid your guardian, so if you want them to attack you, make sure that character is the only one in range.Ħ. Obviously you're going to have to adapt your plans based on your rng, but if you don't account for who the enemy can attack, you're going to get surprised one-shot by that dreeven. 1 or 2 legacy points spent gearing up isn't bad, but unless you're literally gearing up in the final fight, it's almost always better to save them for one of the other two avenues.ĥ. You'll be tempted to blow your points here. This, imo, is the last-ditch way to spend points. However, as the chapters progress the character starting gear gets better.
So, I'd recommend usually not bothering stopping the other faction calamities, except maybe in the first chapter when you can do it for just 1 point, and saving those points for legacy heroes, once you've got some banked. Who cares if the weaker factions get stronger? They are usually hardly growing, while your main faction gets several calamities a chapter just from fights. Prioritize stopping calamities on your main faction. It gets more expensive as the chapters go, but your legacy point income doesn't change that much. This is the primary way you're going to be spending your legacy points.
#WILDERMYTH TRANSFORMATION GUIDE UPGRADE#
If you get in a bind and some of your heroes retire, recruiting legacy heroes can refill or upgrade your roster. Creating a bank of powerful legacy heroes is the biggest point of rogue-like progression this game has. Recruit heroes, especially legacy heroes. You get legacy points for adventuring and defeating monsters. Different classes have different progressions in these stats, and so different transformations are best suited to different types of characters. Bonus damage, is applied to attacks, and most transformation abilities. None of the transformation abilities that I've seen so far use it.
Spell damage is I think only useful for infusions. But if you have a maimed character with a hook or peg leg, take them adventuring. This can be good or bad, depending on the situation. I had a character missing an arm, who took a transformation that affected her arm, and immediately both arms were transformed. Transformations immediate replace missing limbs. By the end, you will have all the materials you need, assuming you are clearing (almost) every area. Essentially your missing out on materials in the short term, but not the long term.
However, any fort you don't secure will be automatically secured before the next chapter. I thought if I didn't I wouldn't get any materials. Update: Thanks to dragonfang12321 for several answers to questions at the bottom.ĭon't bother with securing forts unless you have a reason (such as having extra time right at the end of the mission.) When I first started, I was doing this, and by the end there were a million calamities.
Or if you have any tips of your own, I'd love to read those as well. So if you see something wrong, or that you just disagree with, please let me know. If I'm wrong about any of this, I'll be checking back and updating. I've got a few questions at the bottom as well. But I noticed that there on some things that aren't intuitive, that it might be kinda nice for everyone to know. I'm about to either do a legacy campaign or a walking lunch, don't know which yet. Howdy! Just finished the last of the campaigns on Tragic Hero - Carved in Stone.
