King Arthur Legends Rise Beginner’s Guide

King Arthur Legends Rise is a popular RPG, where you get to explore the Arthurian Legend, in a completely different and fun way. But there's a lot to unpack for most players, especially if you're a newbie to RPGs. So, to help you avoid any rookie mistakes, and get started on the right foot, here's a comprehensive beginner's guide for King Arthur Legends Rise.

Choosing the best characters

Your companions are the crux of the gameplay in King Arthur Legends Rise. But choosing the right ones is easier said than done. There are quite a few prerequisites that you need to check before you can pick a hero for your team.

But, to help you avoid so much hassle, here's a comprehensive view of all the things you need to look out for:

• Leader Effect: Out of the 66 heroes that you can recruit, only 35 of them have a Leader Effect. This effect is a permanent buff that is cast upon your allies at the beginning of any combat. Having one of these heroes in your team is a must.
• Co-op Attack: Similar to the Leader Effect, there are 20 heroes in KA: LR that also have the ability to trigger Co-op Attacks. Heroes with Co-op attack have a 30% chance to command another hero to attack alongside them when attacking.
• Relic-type: The Relic you've equipped on a hero dictates what kind of damage they deal. Changing this accordingly before the start of a boss fight is essential to reign victorious. Having the right type advantage increases your damage dealt by 25% and reduces damage taken by 15%.

Claim every reward

Stocking up on resources is essential in KA: LR. From powering up your heroes to finding better equipment, everything requires resources. To help you quelch this never-ending thirst for resources, you should claim every reward that you can.

Here's a list of all the important rewards that you might miss in King Arthur: Legends Rise:

• Plaza Fountain: The Plaza Fountain is the most common reward that you'll most likely forget to claim. This fountain, located in the center of the city, is an unending source for EXP Potions. Initially providing only 10 EXP Potions every hour, this Fountain soon levels up with your castle and increases the amount of EXP you get.
• Attendance Rewards: One of the best sources of high-value rewards in most RPGs is Attendance Rewards and KA: LR isn't any different. From Legendary Heroes to tons of Summon Tickets, you can get everything just from logging in daily, and more from completing missions.
• Market: Apart from the Fountain, there's also the Market in the city center. You can buy important resources like Fairy Stones and even Legendary Mana Orbs using Gold. If you're lucky, you can even get massive discounts on them.
• Coupon Codes: Apart from the above sources, one more way to get tons of freebies is by redeeming coupon codes. There are new codes made available regularly, so be on the lookout for them.

Check out Restricted Area

Once you start leveling and powering up your heroes, you'll soon run out of EXP Potions and Mana Orbs. The Restricted Area is the best place for all your needs in King Arthur Legends Rise. You can clear various Dungeons to claim all sorts of rewards.

From essential resources like Equipment and Rate-Up Summon Tickets to EXP Potions and Awakening Stones, everything can be found in the Restricted Area. So, be sure to check it out daily and get the clearing rewards.

Equipment Sets and how they work

While awakening and leveling up your heroes can be quite helpful to increase your Combat Power, if you want to tap into their full potential, you'll have to equip them with the right equipment sets. There are over 15 different equipment sets available in King Arthur: Legends Rise, each providing a different buff when you equip a certain number of gear in that set.

From regular sets like Attack Set and Life Set to rarer ones like the Immortal Set and Elemental Set, you can try out different effects on your heroes to get the right fit. For example, for a defensive hero like Cormac, equipping the Life or Defense Set is best. Similarly, the Attack and Critical Set are better for an offensive hero like Tristan.

Complete the Power-Up Guide

When you're playing King Arthur: Legends Rise, especially as a beginner, the Power Up guide is your best friend. Not only does it mention all the modes that you've left to attempt, but it also lists all your available quests and daily and weekly missions.

As long as you complete everything mentioned in the Power Up guide, you'll have enough resources and see a gradual increase in your in-game combat power. Do note that it doesn't list event missions, so you'll have to check the 'Event' section for anything related to limited-time events.

Spend your Crystals wisely

Crystals are the premium currency in King Arthur Legends Rise. Unlike other popular RPGs, this resource is quite rare to find for free in KA: LR. There are only a few places through which you can acquire a limited number of crystals. So, spending all your crystals on summoning isn't the best way to spend them. Rather, there are limited-time offers and passes like the 'Commander Pass' which provide a better bang for your buck.

For example, 2,000 Crytals translate to around 15 Special Summons which when spent on a Commander Pass gets you 10 Special and 10 more Rate-Up Summons. Apart from that, there are tons of Gold, Stamina, EXP Potions, and many more rewards. So be sure to spend your crystals wisely.
