How to Improve Spiritual Beasts in Evony
Spiritual Beats can be improved using 2 different methods. Firstly they can be leveled up, to a maximum of level 20, using Spiritual Beast EXP. Secondly, they can be Smelted to improve their Quality by using a combination of Gems, Gold, Medals, Fox Tails, and Badges. We will now cover this in a bit more detail in the sections below.
Leveling Up Spiritual Beasts

This is the most simple way of improving your Spiritual Beasts. Simply apply your Spiritual Beast EXP to the one you wish to level, and once it reaches the target, the Spiritual Beast will see its level increase along with its buffs. As already covered in more detail above, there are many ways to get Spiritual Beast EXP such as from Boss Monsters, Event Monsters, the World Boss, and the Wheel of Fortune.
Smelting Spiritual Beasts

This is the second method of improving your Spiritual Beasts and it is also the more costly method. You will need Gems, Gold, Medals, Fox Tails, and Crimson Crystals to do it. Each time you Smelt a Spiritual Beast, their Quality will improve, along with their buffs.
Each Spiritual Beast will require Gems and Gold to be Smelted. However, the final items required (Medals, Fox Tails, or Crimson Crystals), will depend on the Spiritual Beast that is being Smelted. The requirement for Smelting each Spiritual Beast are summarized in the table below:
Spiritual Beast | Gems | Gold | Special Item |
---|---|---|---|
Scorpion King | Yes | Yes | Medals |
Bird of Hurricane | Yes | Yes | Medals |
Lord of Lava | Yes | Yes | Medals |
Behemoth King | Yes | Yes | Medals |
Pegasus | Yes | Yes | Crimson Crystal |
Nine-tailed Fox | Yes | Yes | Fox Tails |
Kong | Yes | Yes | Crimson Crystal |
Burning Godzilla | Yes | Yes | Crimson Crystal |
Each time you Smelt a Spiritual Beast to improve its Quality, the resource requirements will increase. It is therefore important to ensure you know where to get them. A good start is keeping your Gems topped up with our list of all the Best Places to get Free Gems in Evony.
Next, you will want to ensure you have Crimson Crystals and Fox tails depending on the Spiritual Beast you want to Smelt. Each of these items can be obtained from the Spiritual Beast Event shop in exchange for Spiritual Beast Scales which are found by killing Boss Monsters during the event.
The final Quality you can smelt each Spiritual Beast up to is the Red Quality. This will cost a significant amount of each of the resources outlined in the table. However, you will also need one further item at this stage called Awakening Stones. These can be obtained by purchasing packs or by placing well in the World Boss Event.
Should you use Spiritual Beasts or Dragons?
As mentioned at the start of this Evony Spiritual Beast Guide, the function of Spiritual Beasts is very similar to Dragons. Once fully upgraded, Dragons are without a doubt a much better option. However, at the same time, they are much more expensive in terms of the Gems and Materials outlay required to unlock and upgrade them.
Therefore, in the early game, you are likely better off using Spiritual Beasts while you use your materials for making great Equipment for your Generals instead of for feeding your Dragons. In addition, further into the game, it can never hurt to have some of each. You will have many Generals at this point that will benefit from having either of these equipped.
