When is it a good time to do your first warp?

[Zanatar]

Ok I'm still new to the game.. and I've only unlocked up to Transylvania Levels.

I have not warped yet for the first time. I am not sure if I should be warping the very moment I can? or if there is a best time to Warp for the first time? Or future warps thereafter?

Well, the enemies get harder after each warp, so I would wait until you feel like you can't advance further before doing it.

Things that you can 'keep' when you warp (the first time): Gold, 2 items, 2 heroes (reset to lvl 1, but keep spell levels if you upgraded). You also get a scroll for each mage type that you leave behind when you warp, and keep all the recipes from blueprints you used.

So my advice is play until you can beat at least 2 of the 'tests' or the campaign and get an artifact set item from each. Also, make sure you have 2 hero types you like (I like djinns, necromancers, and angels because of their better troop types). Also, try to level up enough and get enough blueprints to craft most or all of the items (so you can use the blueprints later for crafting the broken sword). Then, just before you warp, use up all your raid tickets and try to get a high amount of gold to jumpstart your next run.

These are just my opinions, I'm sure there are better players than me. But this is what I do, and it seems to work.

My first warp was after i beat everything expect the Horus Quest.
Another good Question is. What heroes to keep? I favoured 1 Djinn, 1 Zealot, and 1 Shadow Knight) dont know if ill do this again. 2 Mages +1 melee would be better i think

Wow, I got pinned :)

Other warping issues to consider:
1) You can't take it with you. Well, not most of it. So if you've been hoarding/equipping runes and scrolls, use 'em up to power up your spells and your hero spells. Also, you can get trophies for unlocking all the spells in a group. If you have a ton of high level ingredients at the BS, use 'em up. Maybe that will give you the edge to earn another star somewhere, or beat that level you couldn't quite pass. Same with exp potions, chalices, and raid tickets. Use 'em or lose 'em.

2) But not your gold! You can take that! So, don't go crazy during the 2 minutes before warping and decide to see what it's like to have 12 spell slots.

3) Mages may be the best choice to keep, for 1 reason. It seems that their spell levels cross over. so if you pump up a genie to lvl 4 lightning, you'll breeze through the first missions in 3 seconds each. I also like to keep 5 star heroes that are rare to pick up, but I think a healer with lvl 5 heal would trump an angel, just because scrolls are harder to come by (you can always buy chalices if you don't mind grinding).

4) Keep your set items! (duh!) Even if you only have 1/6, keep it and wait for the others to drop or come in a warp.

There is one question i ask my self from time to time i play this game.
What is the sence of warping? Just stronger enemys? I realy dont know why i should warp.

Do i get some skills? Do i get some better items?
No i just fall back to lvl 1 and have to do it again? nothing more?

I think bevore you impliment a "game of thrones" storyline your game should have a little more content.

More explanaitions, more everything.

Dont missunderstand me. This game is great but after playing it 1 time i dont know why i should play it after the warp :-?


edit:

Some more. Why does my Rally upgrade so often? If is on lvl 25 it should stop with upgrading OR there should be another benefit or something like that.
For example you can upgrade special positions with +10% range or things like that.

They Daily events are a joke^^ They should grow with the stage you are or with the lvl your hero is. i earn about 10k gold in 20 sek. but after 60 seks and 30k gold i get a benefit of 500? really? Thats just ... dont know what to say^^

open these 8 Boxes every day? For 8 recources and 500 gold? not really^^

i think there is so much potential you just should focus on it

Upgrading Rally sounds fun! Even with blueprint+gold to upgrade slot in rally, why not.

Ok so I play this on steam and my phone every day. Ive done a few warps on both. But I have yet to figure out the whole broken sword issue. Ive carried some over so that I have more then one, but still am not sure what the blacksmith trick is with them.
So, what do I do with the broken sword?

[freelancetom]

try combining it with a lot of blueprints at the blacksmith.

[joshyboy1986]

Yeah, finally got it today! Thank you.

[freelancetom]

No problem. Now, if you figure out how to craft the new hammer, let me know :) (is 'sealed fire' a scroll or rune?)

[joshyboy1986]

I read some where else, its blue print down the left side, myth hammer in the middle, and fire runes down entire right side. I havent got to try it yet though.

[Elite Games Ltd]

There are two new hammers. You have found one, but does anyone managed to find second one? https://vk.com/doc4015333_437466596?hash=294af24a90de4232a9&dl=3fe982921b5a3b99ec

"1) You can't take it with you. Well, not most of it. So if you've been hoarding/equipping runes and scrolls, use 'em up to power up your spells and your hero spells."
So does that mean that the rune spell levels transfer over after warping?

The mages that you take with you will keep their leveled up spells. The runes just dissappear, so even though your spells all reset, you might as well use up the runes during the last few stages if you have extra. (Some can be used in crafting , too)

Hi ppl. I read the thread but can't get the idea of when is the right time to warp, and the true benefit for doing it. Thanks in advance if someone can help :P
