If you're new to the game, this guide is packed with beginner tips and tricks to help you get started. So grab your controllers, and let's get into it.

Hero Selection and Personalities

Choosing a hero is the first and most effective course of action. Every hero type has a personality, which has a direct impact on the growth rate of every hero's stats in the entire game. Here are some good examples:

Lone Wolf: This is the all-rounded option that encourages balanced growth for all the warrior’s stats but primarily the vitality. If the player wants a hero who is good at many things at many times, this is a hero selection to go with.

Tough Cookie: This character is recommended for users who would rather use a more fleshy and sturdier character. Its trait enhances attacking power and vitality, allowing the character to be a battlewinner.

Paragon: If maximum damage facilitated by favorable skill does not interest you, you should consider taking Paragon. This character’s trait facilitates the enhancement of physical combat, which is ideal for combat-oriented players.

Building the Best Party

A balanced party setup is imperative for smooth progress in the game. Below is a strong suggestion:

Warrior: The tank of the party. This is due to high defense, and HP and warriors are good at taking hits from enemies.

Mage: Your destruction magic. Mages inflict huge amounts of elemental damage and take advantage of the enemies’ weaknesses.

Priest: The healer. They are mostly responsible for keeping the party in combat with healing and buffing spells.

This strongest trio, assembled with your hero, allows you to meet any combat needs - offense, defense, support - you name it.

Exploring the World

There are many secrets and side quests in the world of the game.

Explore Each Town and Dungeon: Everywhere should be searched - wardrobes should be opened and barrels broken, chests opened, and go to the NPCs; there could be some items or clues hidden in places where stillness reigns.

Pursue Side Activities: These tend to include some rewards, such as rare items or bonus experiences, which are often worth it. They also have the ability to add more stories and adventures.
