Additional tips to win your battles
Since you'll spend most of your time on the battlefield, here are some additional tips and tricks to consider when fighting against your opponents. Make sure to also keep in mind the second advice I gave you in this article, the one about the color match bonus!
- don't forget to activate pets: I usually forget about them, and pets can be really useful. So keep an eye on their fill meter and bring them into battle when they are most helpful: usually when fighting against multiple enemies or bosses.
- take advantage of the elemental bonuses: an element is strong against another and weak against a third. So make sure that you always attack with heroes that have an actual advantage in order to deal more damage. If you can combine this with the crystal color bonus, even better!
- timing is everything with your special skills: you can activate them, usually, even when the mana bar is not completely filled up, so always consider using them against your enemies at the right time.
Even more, some might require preparation: for example, the Special Skill of Mad Trox is Berserk, which not only offers solid bonuses, but also stacks. However, if you activate it during battle, he loses his move, so it's better to prepare in advance and activate when your tapping/clicking crystals
- take enemies out one at a time: I know that the game tells you to take out bosses first in fights, but that's not the best approach in my opinion, especially if they have multiple other allies around.
Bosses have more health and are more difficult to beat. Therefore, you should focus on taking out all the other minions, one by one, in order to reduce the actual damage when they start attacking. This is pretty simple: instead of having 6 heroes dealing damage to your team, you have just the boss doing so. Still a win!
- don't forget to use your special items: there are various items that you can find during battles and they can provide a lot of help. Make sure to use them at the right time in order to keep your heroes alive or turn the odds of the battle in your favor.
- keep an eye on the level requirements before each battle: even though these are generally correct, you can still beat the stage with slightly lower heroes. For example, if the requirement says level 20, it doesn't mean that you need all your heroes at your level. If you have a few there and a few a bit below, you should still be able to beat the stage.
