The first week
- Use a new player code. A free champion beats anything you will pull in week one. Codes here.
- Push the campaign on Normal, then Hard, with your starter and the free champion.
- Join a clan and hit the Clan Boss daily.
- Pick a farmer and start 6-starring it. A champion that clears Brutal 12-3 alone is the engine of your account.
Your first 6-star champion
Six-starring means feeding a 5-star champion five other 5-stars. It costs a lot of food, which is why your first 6-star should be a campaign farmer such as Kael or Athel from the starters. Once it can solo Brutal 12-3 or 12-6, it levels all future food for you.

Arbiter missions

- Arena for medals and the Great Hall.
- Daily quests and the free Mystery shard.
