Human Guide

Humans are considered the most versatile race among the current 3 open races right now.

With the Patron deal that the game costing only $0.99, it is considered a good investment if you are interested in committing to this game.

My IGN: Joshua. I have played two servers S11 and S16 in this game specifically and played both Humans and Dwarf races till level 20+.

I do not see a distinct race being "stronger" or "worse", it is all up to your own personal choice and play style especially in this game. However, I would advise if you were to choose humans. You might be required to place more effort and time as I feel humans have the strongest potential in the finals however the progress might be tedious and tough.

Breakdown on Human Troops

As compared to the other races human troops have each of their own roles and abilities. Side note: Humans are Morale Junkies. So, if you provide them with good Morale you can ran the battlefields with ease.

Spearman: Cost – Mithril

These are frontline units to take down large units such as Mechs, Tanks and Calvary. However, these units do not have a large health pool it would be considered not to use them as your main frontlines.

Soldiers: Cost – Mithril

These are the second frontline troops of the humans. The base ability allows you to reduce 35% of incoming ranged attacks. As compared to spearmen these are better options for “Tanks” as the frontline. Their base health pool and damage pool is also higher than spearmen to a close 1.4X.

Calvary: Cost – Diamonds

These are your bread and butter of damage/tank. The magical horses roam the battlefield in an instant and give the enemy no chances with its effective stun. However, the worse nightmare of the Calvary would be the spearmen and lizardmen. They do massive bonus damage to the Calvary and instantly stops your charge. (Sad face) However with correct positioning and planning the Calvary can charge straight into your enemies and wipe the troop groups in an instant to provide the morale boosts to trample over the whole battlefield. Major Hint: Place them at the back of your line-up. With their charge, they may be separated.

Archers: Cost – Crystals

These are considered the “Sole breadwinners” of the house. As similar to the dwarves’ grenadiers, the humans use the archers to pillage resources for your city. Without them you might be living on the streets.

Priestess: Cost – Crystals

Priestesses are considered the saving grace for the humans with the ability to mass heal at Golden troop level. They provide the essentials for survival in battles against the massive firepower of the dwarves or the relentless and never-ending assault of the lich. Combined with the Soldiers you have amazing survivability.

When do I switch race?

You don’t need to! You start with humans and ends with humans as it began.

Hero Choice

Starting hero’s choices would be Avalon as it provides the best duo combination with Avalon and Avril. Rufus is a good choice at the start however his abilities scale far off in the late game and would be considered negligent in battles after level 20. He was meant to be a frontline tank however his abilities do not scale along the troops damages and gets instantly wiped in the end. Avril provides amazing skillset with her abilities to freeze enemy troops and massive damage with Blizzard. While Avalon gives the best troops enhancements (Archers) and as a unique ability to provide you with one extra battle reinforcement. Which helps to fill the battlefield fully.

Troop Selection

From the breakdown above I would be safe to say Calvary, Archers, Footman, Priestesses are your essential line-up. Then again, I would agree it would take additional effort to train up to 4 units. Only train Spearman only when it is needed. (Against the Tactics School)

What building do I upgrade:

Needless to say Upgrade your Unit Choice Buildings first as it being the highest of Priorities. You may follow my Line-up or not. Each level provides a major difference in the battlefield with each unit getting upgraded.'''

Academy (Research Centre):''' Priority: High. Upgrades to obtain all sliver till level 20 is essential. However in the later portions of the game when you are rushing to Gold troops you may set this as a lower priority as you would not have much Gold Troop count.

'''Sawmill (Wood production)/ Mana Siphon/ Residence (Gold production): Priority: Low. PILLAGE''' PILLAGE PILLAGE. Or you know do quests.

Castle (City upgrade): Priority High. Obviously as this is your level indicator as well. Who wouldn’t want to progress!

Tactics school: Priority Low. Only if you’ve finished the current 15 waves.

Center (Troop Capacity): Priority is considered High depending on the amount of heros you have.

Hospital (Heal Troops): Priority High.''' As humans love hospitals its best you provide and cater to their needs.

Warehouse/ City Gate: Priority Unknown- Depending on player choice. If you are aggressive and pillage tons. You might want to focus on your troop buildings. If you want to stockpile and be the Bank of your kingdom. Go right ahead and stock up!

When do I put my shield on?

Shields are essential only when you are high on resources. Lets say above 30K resources of each and no walls to defend. You’re a huge target. Raise those walls! Mainly just to defend resources and nothing else.

What do I use to spend my Linari Coin?

Spend it all on chests. It helps in the game development and you can unlock Golden/Adamantine chests, which provides amazing rewards.

Defence troops compositions:

Do not spam archers. I usually place unwanted troops on my wall. But of you are willing to have a strong wall then I would suggest placing the similar line-up for your attacks with a good mix.

Troop Arrangements.

For PVP Duels and Walls:

Front row: Soldiers

Middle row: Mixture of Archers and Priestesses

Back Row: Calvary

For Pillage:

Front row: Archers

Middle row: Archers

Back Row: Archers/Calvary

Neutrals/Quests:

ONLY use what is essential to win the neutrals you can test yourself constantly. It saves hero energy as that would be tough to come by in the later portions.

Mercenaries:

Never used any mercenaries personally as your own troops have levels and research backed up on them. However you do obtain free mercenaries at Maiden River at level 15. So please do collect them daily.
